I used to spend about £40 a week on wine for myself. I dont drink anymore (just as well).

Oh dear, everyone seems quite restrained! we dont drink much,if anything in the week, but we do like wine for the weekend so we usually have 4/6 bottles and some beers in the house. Average cost £50 pw I suppose. We always give up for the whole pf January though.

I think all the big drinkers are avoiding posting here, as I think I seem to be rather more than average drinker from the posts.
I have 3-4 bottles of wine,2 crabbies,1/4 bottle of vodka a week,other half about 14 cans of lager,if we have visitors then alot more. pmsl
Probably equates to £50 a week as the wine I drink is £8 a bottle.

I gave up the demon drink 6 years ago as I began to hate the taste.I wish I had done it years ago as I have a lot more money at the end of each month.

On reflection this year I didnt buy enough booze!! I got !!!!ed on Xmas day because I emptied all the odds and droggs from three other bottles into my glass and drank it. Didnt notice anything until four in the morning. I am deffo going to save more booze for Xmas instead of drinking it all the time before it gets to Xmas!! LOL. Some hope.....I will have forgotten all this by tomorrow let alone next December.

I don't drink that often - even when I'm out but I'm gonna guess at around £20 a month on average but that's with me only having a drink or two when I'm out for a meal (even then, it's rare that I do). When I actually get drunk is when I spend the majority of it but I only get drunk maybe twice a year as I'm more interested in working out these days lol.

I don't drink :-D I used to spend around £60-£80 a week on going out in first and second year when I was at University-madness. Proud to say I now spend about £10 a month on "going out" clubbing, I just get a cheap entry and a couple of soft drinks maybe once a month. I drive there and back so no taxis, and I rarely have any takeaways - the restrain is a lot more when I don't drink.

ive just turned 19 and dont drink, but the members of my household dont really drink alcohol either so apart from alcoholic gifts id say less than £20 a year !!

A 70cl bottle of vodka per month (£12), and a bottle of cheap wine per week for weekends (£5) plus a half lager on my lunch on a thursday (£2) - approx £5 per week/£19 per month
