And the Tequila was AUS$45 for 700ml

that's a bit steep don't you think?

and I so wanted to make margaritas tonight

Ahhhh just do it!

it's too much, seriously

bacardi is AUS$26 for the same amount

c'mere

Jamie said he was going to be here tonight

mdiver said:

I'm drowning my sorrows with light beer

I plumped for Singha Light last night at $1 US per 630ml bottle and then after the umpteenth bottle remembered that I'd need to keep drinking for 3 days straight in order to get drunk so it'd cost me a fair bit just the same.

Paltry 3.5%

my stomach feels bloated after 3 of these things, when I could have had a pint of VB for the same effect

1 square meter of beer is the solution ...

I only need 3 pints 4 and I'm on the floor

ZombieKitten said:

I drank 25 330ml cans of Singha Light over at my friend's house last week and I swear I was sobering up between sips.

Fauxie said:

yuk that is so much liquid!

ZombieKitten said:

I know! I mean, I was going to the bathroom, but not to the tune of... let me work it out... 8.25 litres. Where does it all go????

Fauxie said:

I've been 3 times in the last 20 minutes!

ZombieKitten said:

peanut bladder!

mdiver said:

make that 4!

I may plump for those little, barrel shaped Heineken cans tonight. I like those.

photo!

I didn't know what a "bottle shop" was.

I was picturing pretty glass bottles in varying shapes and colors.

Which I suppose isn't too far off the mark.

I wonder if it is something like in this area - The ABC stoers that sell all the bottled booze

Patron silver tequila is my favorite for maragritas....mmm!!

I got the cheapest one, silver bullet or something

ZombieKitten said:

I thought you didn't know what a pint was

Absynth is the way to go but that shit is pretty expensive sometimes, but i usually drink beer, as if i drink spirits i go too hard too soon, and after one hour im blind haha

I was trying to locate pear brandy for a recipe for eggnog, and ran across absynth. It was $30.00 a bottle. I was informed a truer version is going to be available (minus the psychodelics, ala Oscar Wilde era). It's predicted to put all the other imitations out of business....sounds dangerous.
