A Rough Estimate ?

[anneasquith]

a rough estimate, how much money will your household be spending on alcohol over the xmas/new year period ?

[Hopkirk]

About £10

[wolf63]

Nil - but I have bottles of fizzy juice in the fridge all year long.

[ummmm]

Couple of hundred.

[wolf63]

I better add - I don't drink alcohol but drink about a litre of diet fizzy juice a day. It is not cheap.

[Stephen_G]

£0.00

[anneasquith]

wolf....... irn bru ?

[mccfluff]

not too much i wouldn't think. I'm off work so actually getting me to go out will be a challenge. fatty will blow all his wages in the pub but thats normal. and i have i a lot of wine already in as gifts. i'll probably save money

[wolf63]

Pepsi Max and seven-up zero are my poison's of choice.

[anneasquith]

[anneasquith]

boggin........... a traitor :)

[China Doll]

About £20 for three bottles of wine and maybe get some champers if it's still on offer. I reckon it'll be about £35 max if I get champers and some beers as well.

[pastafreak]

I may not spend anything. But daughter arrived on Saturday for her holiday visit with 3 bottles each wine and cava. I may treat myself to some liqueur of some sort.

[jackthehat]

We spent about £30 on various drinks because we had a small 'gathering' on Friday.......but everybody brought their own and left what they didn't drink....our stuff remains untouched and we now have more than we started with.

Win/win. :o)

[Booldawg]

not much. even foodwise I'm trying to concentrate on Christmas day lunch and nibbles on Christmas eve rather than lots of junk we just wont eat.

drinkwise its a bottle of bucks fizz for breakfast, 2 bottles of sparkling white for lunch. I have 2 crates of German beer and whatever homebrew is ready.

[sandyRoe]

About £40. 2x£10 bottles of wine and a bottle of malt whiskey. These are Christmas gifts.

[Graham-W]

£70-£100, but we are going away Boxing day for four nights.

[Bluestone]

Same as JTH, I spent about £25 on alcohol for our gathering on the weekend, but everyone brought their own and left lots too.
I now have a well stoked fridge of wine, beer and plonk. Result! :-)

[Frank97]

I've spent £14.99 on 12 bottles of Hobgobblin, that should last me well into the new year, so no estimates required, £14.99 is what I'm spending.
