Hmmm I don't think you've been shopping around enough - a Harvey Wallbanger is basically just vodka and orange juice. I know you can get that for under £30. And that's just off the top of my head, a bit of internet research could bring up more optiosn I'm sure

And what's the dress suit at £67, is that rental?! My BF is renting a tux from Debenhams for just under £40, we didn't shop around all that much either.

Are you really sure you're doing things for as cheap as possible?
