If you can't afford to go to bars, then stay home. It's not a riddle. Getting drunk or going to a bar is not is not something you need to do, it's something you WANT to do. Get the priorities straight and you will have more money. I don't make good money by any stretch, but I don't go to bars and clubs,.....maybe once every 3-4 months and I get by just fine.

This is not meant at a shot at you, it's more just a generalization.
I pay my 5 dollar cover, which gives me access to the club.

Once you pay your cover and are in the club, you can spend however much you want. If the drinks are reasonably priced I may have a few.

You should see how silly your argument is. Oh, you're a designated driver? Well too bad for you, you need to be drinking if you wanna stay here!

I can see your argument if you're talking about a restaurant or a small bar with no cover, but if I'm in a club with a capacity of a thousand people, then I may or may not buy drinks.

Keep in mind I do tip well, weather I'm drinking or not. Even If I get a few free waters I'll leave a tip. But if beers are being sold at $7 a bottle, chances are I won't be buying many.

I agree with you flip. When I'm at a club, drinking is secondary to having fun, meeting new people, and dancing.
