    Never did it myself but I wouldn't be opposed to the idea


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    No, if I can't afford drink I just stay in.

    I don't see a problem with it though

    To hell with anybody that calls you scabby,pub landlords have been pissing moaning about how they are losing money now,but said not a thing when they were happily over charging.

    Do it and **** the haters,just don't get caught ;)

    I go out on weekdays where there are promotions in clubs so the opportunity cost of sneaking drink in, having to look after it and not wanting to drink vodka is more/less expensive (whichever way that economic theory works) than just paying for 2/3euro drinks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,953 ✭✭✭Vinta81


    No. I drink at home before I go clubbing now.

    Besides I'm not that dependent on alcohol in a club to have fun :)

    I often try to smuggle it out of a club. In mah belly!

    Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't :(

    Meh, the broker i am, the drunker i get before going out, couldn't be arsed carrying crap around with me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,390 ✭✭✭The Big Red Button


    Well a lot of nights out, I'd have a naggin of vodka or bacardi over the course of the night. I'd rather spread it out, so sometimes I drink half at home and bring the rest out with me. If I drank it all at home I wouldn't drink any more in the club anyways, so they'd get no money off me (apart from cover charge etc) ... if I bring some of it with me, at least they're getting money off me for the mixers. So I sometimes do it and don't feel bad about it either!

    might have done it once or twice in my college days but never now, have a few at home before i go out tho...

    might be diff if in big city or whatever but if i got caught in my town the mortification would not be worth it.

    Your bag will probably get checked, when you're in the queue hide it in the gusset of your tihts instead.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 837 ✭✭✭CutzEr


    DRINK! Ohhhh yeeeees.

    Mostly places do checks bags but they can not search your person,so stick it in your waistband or wear a belt :D

    Never, i'm usually trying to smuggle it out at the end of a night cos the offos are closed!

    Mind you i drink beer, so who knows with the price of a vodka?

    Can't see myself doing it, if i was that broke i wouldnt enjoy the night scrimping and scraping and watching every penny i'd rather have a night in with a few drinks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,110 ✭✭✭Aodan83


    I don't, but then, I don't even drink that often, so I can normally afford a few pints. I know a fair few girls who would always make sure to have a naggin of vodka in the handbag going in to a club though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,440 ✭✭✭✭Piste


    Aha that's handy so. Last week a had a large bottle in my bag which I brought in to a club even tho they were checking bags. No Idea why I didn't get caught, must've been sheer luck!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,324 ✭✭✭Oh The Humanity


    Once went halvos on some cheap vodka with a friend, we drank half but were locked so never put the lid back on properly......the vodka was so harsh it took the varnish off a wooden hairbrush in me bag.....dread to think of the effect on our stomachs....

    Still waste not want not.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,390 ✭✭✭The Big Red Button


    I've always put in my bag and never got caught. But I just bring out as small as bag as possible so it won't be searched - they only search the massive suspicious looking bags some girls bring out!

    I did erasmus in a small city in Spain. I was living with an Irish guy and an English guy, and we were permanetly broke. My solution was to buy a small hip flask (€2 in a china shop) and a bottle of contrieau (very drinkable straight) and one of us just brought the hip flask enerywhere-we always had drink on hand, and it was such a distinguished thing to pass around when ****e talking on the street!
    We christened the hip flask Harry and people starting shouting across nightclubs "is Harry out?!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,931 ✭✭✭Prof.Badass


    Nah, i measure out a third of a bottle of tesco vodka, mix it to a litre with mi wadi and water and drink it on the bus in ( i make sure to have a friend there though, even if i'm the only one drinking i'm still not drinking alone, if you get me).

    Does me for the night :cool:.

    Clubs have a cover charge because they don't expect you to be buying much drink there, so no guilt there.

    If i wasn't a jobless student i suppose in a pub i'd buy one or two.

    Ps. naggins are too expensive for me :D.

    Oh so as well as doing the poor landlord out of money he needs to run his establishment (rent, rates, electricity, staff, entertainment, etc etc) you are now jeopardizing the job of door staff that you know?

    See what drink is doing to you?!!!!!















    Go for it, greedy ba$tards made enough during the boom time.:D

    Unfortunately I dont drink vodka anymore.....so I may have to try smuggle bottles of beer into the club. My only problem is trying to hide all them bottles :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz


    Nope, but if I can afford the door tax I can afford the drink...
    I find sneaking in a couple of ready rolled spliffs or a few pills in to a be a much better use of my limited smuggling talents, but I don't bother with clubs much these days...overpriced, no smoking and sh*te music

    You women have it too easy...I'd never get away with sneaking in a bottle of anything into a club...


  • Posts: 6,691 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Yes, if I want to. Never been caught actually.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 804 ✭✭✭yerayeah


    Nah, drink enough before I go out and if I end up being bananas I might start stealing drink...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,007 ✭✭✭SIX PACK

    Sock is usually good for a naggin, then it's off to the bar to get water with a dash of blackcurrant, off to the jacks to refresh the beverage and save yourself a tasty few bob.

    Due to an anatomical coincidence, it's also very easy to double the fun with a naggin in each sock.

    They do get quite uncomfortable for more than about 10 minutes though.
