New Year's Eve 2016 - Staying in or going out?

Options
Currently deciding whether to go out tomorrow for NYE or save my pennies and stay in. I've not been out for the previous few NYEs'. I still have Christmas booze leftover and some nibbles. I eyed up a Salsa party by the river in London, that one has sold out. What do you all have planned? Have a nice one! :D
