Price of beer

[goldringers]

Firstly I'm no tight coont when it comes to going out but yesterday, after the football me and a few m8's went for a few.

Now I try to stick to one or two of the same drinks kinda helps with the bad head.

First pub £5:50 San Miguel 

Second pub £4:50 

3rd pub (get this) £7:50

Now I'm no tight arse but that is taking the urine.

Then theres a pub small run down job selling it for £3:95 so from the dearest that's a £3:55 difference

Put that on a round of 4 I paid £14:20 more than another guy.

I went Liverpool few months back me and 2 m8's and I paid £27 for 3 Peroni draught and it was dog piss shit.

It's getting to the point were an Uber nasty kebab and a few pints is £70

I did £70 last night so imagine you did that twice a week. Then I look back to when I was a young lad out 4-5 nights a week today's prices against wages you'd be living in a cardboard box eating out of food banks.

No wonder pubs are closing left right and centre. My local which was always full 4 nights a week sadly closed and is been turned into a convenance store although there's a mini spar mini Tesco and 3 corner shops all within 800 yards of each other.

But my rant is why such huge mark ups ?. My m8's son came along for an hour but he only drinks water. We ordered a tap water they tried to charge £1 for a glass till we argued.

Local pub near me I ordered a large glass of red wine for the missus and it was £13.00, I could have bought 2 bottles of it in the local Co-op for that.

It's just getting beyond the joke now. Me and the missus did a bog standard last curry other week nothing to right home about few sides, 2 wines 2 beers fookin  80 quid'ish !, I nearly shit me keks when the bill came and I'm not been funny but I could have made better myself at home.

Missus keeps saying we don't do enough together and that's exactly why, we can't afford to. Everything we try to do cost bucket loads unless you spot 2 for 1 deals. Socialising is a thing of the past
