Re: You've got $20...
$20 is just over £12, so that would get me 6 beers in a cheap pub or 3 beers in an expensive bar...

Oh, 20 Euros! 2 fifths of Nordhauser Doppelkorn and a case of Dortmunder Union Export.peetie44 wrote:Here in Belgium, if I had €20 in my pocket and wanted to balance reasonable-quality/bang-for-the-buck, I'd hit the local Delhaize supermarket and get a 700ml of Beam White (@€16 and change/40%abv) and a 4x33cl-pak of "Angel", the chain's Duvel knock-off (@€3.00/8.5%abv).
You'd have to nurse those 4 beers but that's easy enough to do, given their abv.
$20 Handle of evan, or a 12 pack of cheap beer (or maybe 5 24 ozers if it makes a difference with the next item) and a handle of Gordons or Seagrams gin or cheap whiskey like Early Times.

A fifth of Railean rum and a decent cigar with whatever is left.

Re: You've got $20...
If I may turn the conversation a bit, what if you only had $10? If you can't get drunk on $20, you're a lost cause, but $10 can be a challenge.
Re: You've got $20...
I just did this Saturday evening to make cheapy black russians. 750ml Kamora, knock-off Kahluah,a nd a new vodka I'd found, 7x's distilled , so the label clamied and still only 9.99 american dollars. It's Platinum. not bad actually.

If it's $10 then I'm going the Mayhem route and getting two bottles of Cisco. Two can be enough for a weird night.

Re: You've got $20...
If I'm allowed to use 10 euro. Bottle of cheap vodka and two bottles of orange juice will do the trick. Or rather, four bottles of that very drinkable Chardonnay @Lidl. Yeah, I'd go for the Chardonnay. Hell, I'll ask my redhead to join me and we'll both have a good time.

Re: You've got $20...
ok translate directly from $ to £'s and I'd get a bottle of Tullamore Dew (about £12 at ASDA the other day) and a 12 pack of Guinness. Should just manage for £20 if shop around.
Drunk? I'm not drunk! You wouldn't dare accuse me of that if I was s0ber!

Re: You've got $20...
I'm so incredibly jealous of the prices you people are naming. Around here I would be hard pressed to find a bottle of rot gut whiskey for less than 20 bucks.
And I'm talking 750ml bottle.

Wow. I knew canada(or certain provinces) heavily taxed/controlled liquor, but that's too much.JimLahey wrote:I'm so incredibly jealous of the prices you people are naming. Around here I would be hard pressed to find a bottle of rot gut whiskey for less than 20 bucks.

A simple solution. Move to the states. I will welcome and help you(all you have to give up is national health care).
