    For me, €100 barely covers it...

    About €30. Not a big drinker really.

    35 euro - 7 pints
    10 euro - niteclub
    5 euro - nitelink
    10 euro - food

    = 60 euro

    I think €30 was the most i have spent, its great being a non-alcoholic drinker :D

    Probably in and around 100, including food.. though I only go out about once every 2 months these days. I don't know how I could ever afford 2+ nights per weekend on the piss.. or how it didn't kill me!

    Whatever's in my pocket when I leave. Whether it's €20, or €200, it'll be €0 the next morning

    Ah jaysus the ould chloroform has gone up in price an awful lot these days I'd say when my current batch runs out I won't be going out much


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,432 ✭✭✭df1985


    local night 50-70ish.

    city centre big night. 150ish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,401 ✭✭✭Skuxx


    If I'm out by myself with friends than about €80 I suppose, if I'm out with the gf then about €180 between us!! It's not cheap anyway!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    depends really, drinks at home then into a club/late bar= 30-40 quid
    out all night type of thing= 70 I guess, and that'd be a lot

    Normally go to the Irish centre with mates.

    £2.70 a pint, so £30 does me fine, then either the bus home (with a bus pass) or share a taxi back (from £5-10)

    Falling out of the kerry man at all hours

    The Kerryman? Jesus Christ, I'd prefer to get home with all my teeth in tact!

    Honestly can't believe that some people spend over €100 on a night out. I get pissed off if I spend more than €50 to be honest :/

    Thats half the fun. Its better than the Dubliner though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,102 ✭✭✭easyeason3


    I have gone out with €200 & spent it all & got drunk.

    I have also gone out & spent €80 & got drunk.

    Spending €200 = being a tit & buying drinks for people I probably wouldn't spit on of a normal night & a taxi home that costs about a tenner.

    Spending €80 = me getting drunk & still getting home for a tenner.

    But I'd hate to go out on a night & miss my round. I know someone who regularly goes out & manages to skip most rounds because he is a tight fcuker. Probably saves himself a fortune.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,794 ✭✭✭chillywilly


    Anything from €60-€120. Ridiculous really, but I've only myself to blame.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,588 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    100 a night back a few years ago. These days alcohol is wayyyy down the list of priorities.

    At Home €20

    Newcastle £1500-£1800


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,222 ✭✭✭✭Marty McFly


    Id sat anywhere from 50 euro to 200 euro, fifty minimum if its just a few pints down the local, at least 15o if its a proper night out on the piss.

    I likes my drink.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27,252 ✭✭✭✭stovelid


    The exact same amount every night, no matter what I do or where I go.

    Obviously.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,916 ✭✭✭✭orourkeda


    At Home €20

    Newcastle £1500-£1800

    Mike Ashley knows how to charge

    That kip burnt down a few years ago, was a great improvement. Why they ever rebuilt it I don't know! Do you know the Irish centre ('Connaught Bar' I think they call it) at all? It's on the same road as those two, did it up about 18 months back. Great place now.

    Hey, i can't help it if I can't make it to the bar every time. besides monies left over I give to the poor box on my bedside table (or my future drinking fund box, as I call it)

    There were rumours that the Dubliner was an insurance job. Maybe completely wide of the mark. Your man Paddy Finn used to have a mad alsatian running around in it. I've never been in the Connaught Bar. We used to go drinking up the other end. The anchor and hennesseys and the bull ring tavern.
