£4.40 for a pint of lager!

[Notters]

Paying on your smartcard does not bring the price down.

Why dat?

Why dat?

Cashback not cash off innit. You get the 10% back but only to spend at the albion. It is the illusion of a discount rather than an actual bonified discount.

 

[Seat Stealer]

Two halves of lager in Monaco 1980 = £5 and a pint of lager in Stockholm station in 1982 £4 ( Uk prices 20p per half and 70p respectively)

Did you know there is a Wetherspoons pub finder app for i-Phone ? Tells you the location of the nearest Spoons and/or Lloyds.

I DON'T need NO app I'm like a HOMO pigeon FINDING my way to a WETHERSPOONS for a FULL English

 

[Safeway]

Why dat?

A £4 pint costs £4, however you pay for it. Paying by smartcard effectively gets 40p of your NEXT pint, but you will still require at least £4 on your card to purchase it in the first place.

Remember it was £4.20 last year in basketmakers, I know it's £135 a barrel for peroni in cash and carry

But unless you're planning on never going to the amex again it's effectively the same thing.

£4.30 for a 330cl Heineken at the Olympic Park

Or £4.60 for a pint in the Park if you can queue for 5 or so mins

I paid £4 for a pint in The Noble the other day which is a pretty bog standard pub off Portland Road. At the weekend £4.55 for a pint of Korev lager in town. Prices seem to be going up and up.

Went to Norway this year and in the standard bars it was a smidge under £12 a pint !!

Norway has to be the most expensive country in Europe.

That's proper mental...

 

[seagullsslimjim]

re Norway - its a bit more price relative to their wages and cost of living.

Was chatting to two chaps in a bar and one was a bog standard sales assitant in Inter Sports and he was on £26k a year !!

Back to topic though, £4.40 is cheap for Peroni on draught

Eh? No its not.

Bloody hell, I only paid £4.10 for a pint of Korev (Cornish lager) in Rick Stein's fish and chip restaurant in Padstow last week!

But still, £36 should stretch to 10 pints instead of 9.
Although you would need at least 40p more on there to let you buy the last pint and get your 40p back.

 

[beorhthelm]

i went to a bar near Kings Cross last week, £2:50 pint of Guiness. do i win?

 

[Blackadder]

Back to topic though, £4.40 is cheap for Peroni on draught. Worth it though.

Just out of interest. What would you call average and expensive for Peroni on draught?

 

[Captain Sensible]

I brew my own at 40p a pint
its 7% and a lot better than the 3% pisswater on sale in some pubs for 8 times as much

How so?
I'm really interested in this. How did you start? Is it any good?

 

[HalifaxSeagull]

Once, I paid £5 for a can of Red Stripe in a dingy club in Sheffield that had airport metal detectors outside. We only stayed for one drink.

Was that a club on Spittal Hill? It used to be open until 6am most nights and catered for a fairly 'dodgy clientele'!
