    I think this when I see the cost of pints, and yet practically every pub I go to is so rammed it’s frequently difficult to find a seat unless you go early. Same with restaurants.

    Apparently a lot of people can afford it

      I definitely couldn’t. It was like £70 minimum to have a good night! And that’s only sticking to pints, and not counting cigs or the inevitable kebab or chicken for supper! That three or four times a week is basically a grand a month. Ridiculous money.

        Not buying cigarettes with almost certainly cut the price, they are by far the most expensive thing on that list. Honestly it’s probably cheaper to have a cocaine addiction. Which I also don’t recommend by the way.

        Not too worry. Keep that up and you can save money by not contributing to a pension.
