1 liter of vodka every 2 days @$18/bottle = $63.
12-pack + 6-pack of beer = $23.
Mai Tai's or beers and shots at restaurant or bar, once a week = $25.
2 packs cigarettes (only smoked when drinking) = $16.
Weekly total = $127. Holy crap! No wonder I have so much more "extra" money now... :-)
And, that was just a typical week. Then there were weeks when I would "treat" myself to a better grade of vodka or premium bourbons or scotches, and premium beer, and the tally would easily top $150. Whoa. Oh yeah, and since I stopped drinking, the wonderful People's Republic of Massachusetts has instituted a 6.25% sales tax on alcohol, so tack on another $8-10 per week.
WARNING: Multiplying the weekly figure by 52 may cause severe depression...
Looks like I picked the right year to quit dinking! :-)
