How Much Money Do You Spend When You Go Out?

[shaq diesel 34]

20$-30$, I aint going in to any places with a big cover.

 

[benballer]

that actually a lotta things fam outside a CL! and I didn't really go out much (maybe 3x a month), but each night averaged $3,000 or more. stupid and sad.like I said no more... but my b-day it's lookin $20k total after the damage is done. there will be more sparklers hitting my table then you will see on the4th of july. It's the last time i'll do a party and the first party I've done since 2001 so I'm goin dumb. and yeh, it's a write off 1000%but still. and you can have a blast for less than $2,000 easy. I just get carried away with the rose' and the magnum and jeroboam (double magnum) of dom,crist, just stupid @!+*

I was disgusted because I didn't think too hard til this week. and then you bring up this thread.

 

[rsdplaya]

i'm guessing a lot of you ppl talkin about that's too much money aren't 21 yet. drinks

 

[don korleon]

minimum 50 bucks

 

[koudie from brooklyn]

If clubbing.. depends on bottle prices.. if going out to eat or something simple like a movie.. probably about 150-200 a date.

I got caught up last sat and F'd around spending $3,300 like it was nothing at Coco. like I said, I'm done after my b-day

smh x 1,000,000,000

Damn, Ben, if you got it, why not,

.

I would ask for an invite to your bash, but with my $50-$75 max, I will have no business there,

.

it costs $100 WITHOUT dinner just for the movies and parking @ the grove for me and a date each time.

, that is a lot of dough for a movie. $100 would get medinner and a movie (+concessions), then again I stay away from the Westside, due to the lack/hassle of parking. I'm sure you make enough to cover that. As for me, I would be biting my nails as the tab keeps piling up,

[ricekrispies420]

dam i try not to spend more than 40-50 a day.

 

[joseph camel jr]

Usually very little if anything, I'm in college in the middle of nowhere so the night's usually free, give or take a few $$ for alcohol. House partiesdon't cost *!$# unless you're a lame freshman guy I guess.

Last weekend I was in Vegas though for my buddy's birthday and I spent a few grand. Poor kid lost $15,000 in the casino in about two hours

so Icouldn't even feel bad for myself.

 

[mr jordan04]

ben is a fool. Can you explain how writing things off and it counts on your taxes?

 

[xmr210x]

ftw

 

[twig1026]

no more that $100...aint no party poppin' enough for me to just drop bread without reason

 

[kix4kix]

I am not 21, so I won't go out unless it's free 99

 

[importking]

depends, 100-150 a night.

The Grove that's somewhat by LAX? If so, why so much? I know they got the leather seats in theatres for $20 or whatever, but without dinner? You must be tipping the valet homie a grip.

I stopped drinking alcohol so a regular night out with a chick doing a movie, dinner, coffee usually don't run more than $100 tops.

When I go out with my boys, we just pay our own portions so that's usually less than $40 for me.

DAMN! I once spent $120. It was a good night, but I don't think I'll do it again...

 

[lb510]

A while back for my cousins Birthday

went here to eat


The Damage

 

[benballer]

2 movie tix and concessions is about $50 easy, valet parking is $12 to $15 and I always tip about $5 to $10 depending cuz they always leave my car in front....then we always hit Coffee Bean so thats another $10 and then I always get some jimmy's and some gum so another $6 or so, $90, close......

bottom line is it ain't cheap doin anything. I choose to stay at home more often and blast hi def sound and that 1080p pic on the 61" and I goteverything I want here at home. thats the cheapest date. lol

let's not talk about vegas. smh
