    I could pay more for bulmers but in reality they are of the same quality and I like the taste of devils bit just as much.

    Sometimes if I'm just having one or two a buy nice bottles of craft cider or beer but you couldn't be getting drunk off that stuff, it'd cost you a fortune.

    I like the craft stuff myself, its very pricey. I tend to look for deals on Kopparberg but the hangovers put me off some nights. Bulmers light has been my go to guy lately, less heartburn after a night out

    I could spend anything from €20-€80 depending on where I'm heading and who I end up buying drinks for

    Usually €50-70 including taxi home, paying into clubs and food. Probably less if it's just the pub, maybe €30-40.

    Used to be a lot more. Started drinking before leaving the house, stopped having a girlfriend.

    Dinner in a fancy restaurant with a bottle of aged chardonnay -240
    Pre-Drinks in Gentlemen's club - 60
    Drinks in Krystle for myself and the numerous models - 500
    Bottle of champagne - 150
    Chauffeur for the night - 200
    Cocaine - 400
    Kebab on the way home - 10

    1560

    Do that usually twice a week.

    I find its best to take out cash and leave the cards at home when going to clubs or bars...

    It's amazing what you can save without the pussy.

    I love the idea of that but my fiscal aptitude is inversely proportional to my level of drunkeness. Therefore, there is a real danger that I'd end up stuck in town with no taco chip and no money to get home.

    I do, however, fully advocate leaving the phone at home. F**king drinking and calling/texting is the most stupid and dangerous of games.

    As I type, it has occured to me that drinking seems to be the common denominator in most of my "What the fcuk did I do that for?" moments. Perhaps there is a lesson in there for me.

    I think its a bad idea being in a situation where you could end up with no money but that aside that if I was drunk and had no money and no card it would just result in me borrowing money of a friend (as has happened on more than one occasion when they didn't take debit card and wouldn't allow me out to the atm).

    Average night-

    6 cans, get taxi into town, couple pints in pub then hit club and get taxi home

    Generally about 70/80 I'd say, though midweek would be a bit less

    When I do go out in town I probably spend fifty Euro. Taxi in and out about 20. club and cloak room and some vodka 30. Can be less if someone else is buying!

    The risks of a lack of transport are non existent for me as I can walk home in 20 minutes but id say after a few cold walks for you home you might learn your lesson!

    I've sent the odd stupid drunk text but I still always bring my phone, very handy if you get separated.
