Was hanging out with my cousin and some friends this weekend and stopped at CVS to pick up some alcohol. There was a 30 pack of Old Milwaulkee that was priced at $2.99. My cousin took it up to the register and said, "Some guy was going to sell this to me for $1.99, but he's not here. Will you honor that price?" The cashier said, "I'll sell it to you for 99 cents." Sold. I personally didn't drink any of it cause that shit's nasty!

So, what is the lowest you've ever paid for beer at a store, without the 5 finger discount?

Can't say as I've ever bought beer that cheap... There was this one time though that my buddies and I got a case of Bud Light that the logo on the cans was fucked up... crooked, and upside down... We called and bitched about it saying things like, "this seriously makes me question the quality of your product"... A few days later the fucking beer truck pulls up to my buddy's apartment and gave us free cases of beer... That was pretty cool.

That's why I like Vegas. You never know when you're gonna binge. What if you run out at 3am? Just go and get some more. 24 hour beer sales. Love it.

Exactly. It was on the way to my cousin's house and they sell alcohol. All kinds, not just beer. They also sell good beer, which I bought.

Same place. See above.

Still illegal for stores to sell beer on Sunday here in Indiana. Also can't buy beer after a certain time and before 7am. I work the night shift and stopped at a Kroger on my way home to pick up some beer. It was 6:45 and they wouldn't sell it to me. Said I had to wait till 7. So I stood there for 15 minutes reading magazines in the checkout aisle until 7.

When I was 16 I bought(Yes I had a fake ID) a case of Hamms for $10 with a $5 mail in rebate. By the time I recycled the cans it was less than $4 for a case of beer. :rockwoot:

I remember when I was 19-20, I would party at this college religiously. Since most of the guys I hung out with didn't have cars, I would be responsible for the booze runs. I would make some bank on these runs. They didn't know I would go to NH and pick up the booze tax free. All I had to do was smoke up my buddy for his troubles too. It wasn't uncommon for me to leave the college with $300 for booze. Use to pocket like $30-$40 every time.

That is the only good thing about being sober driver. Everyone will want to go to taco bell or somewhere and you can get all sorts of free food. Now I just pay a guy 15 dollars everytime i'm up for sober drive so he does it for me.

i believe that was said earlier.... if you want to use old tired adages how about "Variety is the spice of life"?

it is my opinion that one should try even the cheap beers, might find a diamond in the rough....

i did the olde english back in the day because it was cheap, i was in high school on a tight budget and it could get you fuct-up

I didn't feel like reading 4 pages worth of posts about cheap beer, but I'll bet $5 that it was Rider who said it if it was said earlier in the thread. :lol:

That said, I'm not in high school, but if I ever find myself in a position with I can't afford GOOD beer, I'll just do without. :shrug:

Back in highschool there was a local grocery store in which all you had to do was stay along a certain path and the cameras couldn't catch you. We knew a girl who worked there. So at 17 with 4friends we walked out of the store with cases and cases of beer of whatever we wanted. We'd pick the most random and expensive beer. Which you ain't lived until you show up to a party with 50+ Laughenbraus(?). Unfortunately I went to school with a bunch of pansies who only drank Budlight or Coors Light(What I like to call Flavorless Water) becuase it looked cool. So not many drank it.

But damn man. That's a sweet deal and I actually like that stuff too.

I got free beer tonight. It was at least a year or two old miller denuine draft. Me and three other baby reps had to turn around. They say go and throw the 4 beers. One second later we turn around and go running looking for the type of beer that was ours and we have to find it, run back, chug, and whoever gets done fastest wins. I'm the motha uckin winna motha fuckas. Then I went back inside and won the next game of p0ng.
