I don't drink alcohol because of heart meds.

Bottle of domestic beer is $6.50 at a restaurant. $16 for a mixed drink in the spensive part of town sounds bout right.

Just this morning my McDonald’s coffee jumped in price. Used to be a buck. $1.38 now.

Haven't had a drink at a watering hole for years...... One Bud Light and paranoia sets in. I like trying out the oddball beers.....
...not odd really, the smaller brewers beers. You know, Budweiser sells 50 gazillion cases per year and the smaller companies sell 5 gazillion.
This one isn't bad. Some taste like crap. "Hop Stupid" was a favorite. At some point they raised the alcohol from 7.5 to 8. Totally changed the taste. It wasn't an improvement.

When I'm out of town I usually treat myself once a week to a nice restaurant. The one I'm frequenting has this stuff on draft. I think it's $11 for a 22 oz. mug. It's some easy drinking right there. Goes down super smooth.

They come up with some good names. Hop Stupid is one I liked...
.... that's the one where they hopped up the alcohol level. It would have been better dropping it half a point instead of raising it.

One of my favorites is a chavela. It's a michelada with a lime shot and a modelo that sits upside down and fills the glass as you drink it down. Garnished with cocktail shrimp and cucumber slices covered in tajin. Practically a meal at 16 bucks.

Sounds like something I would try. Might have to make one at home to test it out.

That one has me confused. If it's a drink with red bull in it, count me out.

How about these drink prices. Airport bars do rock though.

What sort of *&$$^% pays $10 for a can of beer? If you want to waste money and be pretentious at least have the dignity to order draft from a fresh keg.

I’ll have you know that is a bottle, good sir.

The Heinekin in the menu said $10 for a can. That's crazy. Had a 22.3 oz. bottle of Sapporo with my dinner last night for $6.50. That's a nice beer........from Japan in case you don't know.

I bought a six-pack of sugar free cherry coke for $2.99.

Airport bar. The prices are what they are, you either take it or leave it. Go to a ball game or a race and the prices are just as ridiculous. Last race I went to I paid $21 for the super duper whatever it was jumbo dog. They got ya by the balls one way or the other, and sometimes both.

This desert living sure ain’t cheap. I’d move the old man back to the Carolina’s in a heartbeat but I don’t think he’s up for having any of that so stay tuned for more outrageous prices.

Sapporo is a great drink.

So I don't consider myself a cheapskate but............Last Dodger game my buddy was buying the 25oz Cheladas I think it was $13 per CAN. Of course I have to buy a round eventually but it kills me to give away money like that. It's too hard to come by for a guy who spent his whole life crawling for an hourly wage--------and now transitioning to FIXED INCOME. I can afford a modest retirement now BECAUSE I'm good enough at math to live on what I can afford. It was quite a long time ago we went and his son and two nephews came along. I went up to buy Dodger Dogs and beers. I had to take out a 2nd mortgage on the house. I guarantee you I wont make that mistake again.

When the boys were little, I used to take them to our local A division team, the San Jose Giants. They had a blast, got foul balls, autographs after the game. Ticket prices went from the 5 dollar bucket seats, to 3 dollar bleacher seats; The cheap seats didn't extend much past the 1st and 3d base lines. Saw a couple cool firework shows. If we had waited to when we could afford to watch the Big Boys play, we'd of never seen a game.
