    I have 200 euro

    I need to do a grocery shop this weekend. That will be 60 euro roughly.
    I have esb bill to pay tuesday. Thats 95 euro.

    I also want to go out tonight. But it leaves me 45 to go out. So not enough.

    I also have family that owe me money. Have been telling them all week that I need to be repayed, some of it at least but they are not happy paying up. They have the money for boozing. And town shopping but not to pay me what they owe. It will break my heart to see them out on the piss while I stay in broke because of them.

    Wondering now, should I ignore the esb bill so that I can go out?

    why will the €45 not be enough?

    Chase after the family member who owes you money.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,762 ✭✭✭✭stupidusername


    of course you should. i assume you need to find a new man now, what with that pimple scaring off the last one.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,734 ✭✭✭J_E


    Simple, don't go out. It's not a need, have a night in instead. Why would you spend 45 euro on a night out anyway if you're tight on cash?

    I want to go out on the tear and to bend my ass over for some whoring anal down some dark alley way so I am doing my bit to help others through this dark recession.

    Skipping an ESB bill to go out isn't a good idea in the long run, why not just pay it off and make a compromise. You don't need more than 45 euro unless you plan on going mental.

    Well, you could still do this........and get paid for it!

    I think you really want to go out and even if we all say don't do it you'll still waste the money you should have used on your electricity bill.
    Just get a bottle of wine at home?

    Not paying a bill so you can go out on the piss is really not a good idea, ever.

    Surely you can have a night out for e45? Just adapt what you're going to do.

    I'd chase family members for the cash and go out. If they dont pay I'd prob go out on ESB money and worry about it later, though I'm not known for makin good decisions. Also yoiu prob coiuld go out on 45e, just drink at home beforehand.

    Suppose I could drink vodka with no mixers and be very ill tomorrow.

    skint on pay weekend? shît! i'm pretty flush right now, just after springing for a piano tuner and off to the pub for the day! muhahaha

    seriously tho,just take a naggin in your bag and you'll be fine!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,007 ✭✭✭sollar


    Drink €190 of it tonight and feed the children on a tenner.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,712 ✭✭✭lorebringer


    Compromise on going out - stay in and have a few friends around, watch a DVD or something. Everyone can bring their own booze, you can buy your own (which won't cost too much) and a few nibbles for everyone. Sorted.

    As far as I'm concerned (for me anyway) after paying bills, buying food and stuff, if there is not enough cash in the kitty going out isn't an option, simples. Lifes a bitch sometimes.

    If the people who owe you can go on the lash, tell them to pay the fúcking money.

    You could, or you could drink before you go out or have people over to the house for a drunken night in?

    Or you could go out and not drink much? I spent the day being very ill (and for once if wasn't alcohol related) and it felt just like a horrific hangover. I wouldn't recommend it all - it wasn't fun :)

    yeah op, just spend less. or drink in, or don't go out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,408 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Just get fellas to buy you drinks all night and go around swiping peoples drinks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,919 ✭✭✭✭Gummy Panda


    Considering you want to get drunk and get your anal whoring on, pay nothing.

    Just go up to some fella and say "if you get me drunk, you can ride the hoop of me"

    How do you get through normal life?

    Do you have a home help who advises on whether you should have toast or cereal in the mornings?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,689 ✭✭✭Vain


    Just buy beans a and bread for the weekly shopping= loads of money left to booze on!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,184 ✭✭✭3ndahalfof6


    Just go to the Fancies For Today thread, put a fiver on each of my picks to win,

    if 1 wins you will be quids in which will let you do what ever the fook you want,

    if none of them win, go into a fit of depression spending the lecky money out on the lash,

    it works for me WIN WIN.

    This may be the most sensible option. Will just have to live on porridge for the week.
