Ok, what tactics have you used to get free drinks?

I DO buy my own ALWAYS - but there have been some fun times, I want to highlight - just a girls night out - in past times..

Usually I just get lucky and ppl offer me them.

I remember telling a barman I had a hole in my glass and he kept topping up said glass, he didnt cotton on at all (unless he was just trying to get me drunk)

Another time as mentioned in Jess's thread, I got into a convo with a barman and he wanted to see our shopping and said if we showed him our underwear we would get drinks on the house, and so we pulled them ouit our shopping bag..

Also I have pretended to work for BBC radio and conducting surveys, and got drinks that way (and more!! )


Drinking games or bets usually work..

damn I have another.. Oh yeah will come back to that one..




*Disclaimer - Wherever you wanna put it.

I worked behind the bar for 3 yrs - I was offered drinks every night



and then some


drunk freaks

spill it you little red thingy ... I'd seriously buy that hole in the glass trick ... just to be able to have u near me

I usually just flash a smile, my dimples, and my boobs. That seems to work for me.

Yeah me too.. and in some bars they just gave us money.. I remember a club I worked at and they were giving 2 drinks for 1.. course the ppl got pissed up, so were more willing to buy drinks.. and I must have had about 30 Baileys but my manager wouldnt give me them.. so I walked..



I earned them fair and square..

A friend of mine works security at a bar. He gets free drinks every night he works.

I think the trouble makers want him drunk

I did work in an italian restaurant (well quite a lot really lol) but the doormen always let me in the clubs and I got VIP treatment..

The best is yet to come..

Not even. You just have to show up at a club/bar and the free drinks just start a comin'.

I've spent many, many nights out not having to spend a single penny.

JustErin said:

Yeah, come to think of it I barely spent a dime in college. I was treated pretty nicely.

Not anymore though.

,,,because of you and I want to hold your hand as you jump over the waves off the shores of Anwwick.

That's your "how I get free drinks line" ?

hokie1 said:

Bullshit. You're hot. Go out with a couple of your female friends and see what happens. Free drinks.

JustErin said:

Thanks Erin. Yeah, I guess going out with my husband would kind of limit the free drinks huh?

I have no idea. I never get free drinks. . .

No. I just love someone so much and thats a first step...

hokie1 said:

It should. I remember being out with a male friend of mine and some random dude came up to me and told me that he loved me. Right in front of this guy. My friend was like, "that dude is lucky I am not your bf...I would have smashed his face in.".

So, for some dudes, having a male presence around doesn't make a difference.

JustErin said:

Eh?

JustErin said:

In college one night I had five guys hit on me and want to go on a date. Oh God, one was so freaking hot I thought I was gonna die. I had noticed him for months and months. By the time he came over to me I had gotten engaged.

JDInteractive said:

What do you not understand?

REDBABY said:

Between tips and wages I made about 250$ a night - back in ther early 80's not bad $
I didnt drink so those offereing to buy me drinks would tip extra heavy instead

JustErin said:

Girls.

JDInteractive said:

JustErin said:

Still doesnt mean I like a taste.

JDInteractive said:
