I just was thinking last night about the money I have spent on alcohol. Not sure if any of you can estimate your cost of drinking but, I thought it would be fun. Look how much money we save!!!!! Not to mention the money we spent on credit cards, debit cards, or random drinking binges. We have all given ourselves a raise!

On average I would buy:

2 twelve packs of Miller Lite a week totaling approximately $22.00
Then, on the weekends let's say I spent an average of $25.00 on Friday and Saturday night (this is a light party week too!) totaling $50.00

So, $22.00+$50.00 = $72.00/week

There are 52 weeks in a year and I used to party every weekend!

So,

52 X $72.00 = $3,744.00 per year. I've been drinking heavily since I was about 21 or so.

I'm 29 so, 8 years......... $3744.00 per year X 8 years = $29,952.00

WOW - I could have put that on my mortgage, car, or my student loans could have been paid off! And this does not even include the random bottles of whiskey, after parties, and kegs that I bought for keg parties. I could be a wealthy woman!!!! LOL!

We made bar owners wealthy! Hahahahaha! No more money for you!

Just thought it would be a fun way to see firsthand what we are all accomplishing!
