Simple tips to save money when visiting a bar

It’s that time of the month again when you head out with your friends to the bar and end up paying at least half of your monthly savings to buy alcohol and other drinks. Not to worry though, for you can apply some money saving tricks in these situations. Read on to find out more.

 

Budget Allotment

Before heading out, fix the budget for the night. This would enable you to keep a check on how much you spend on these parties and how much you end up saving at the end of the month. It would also help you plan these outings in a better way. For instance, you can allocate a specific amount of money to spend on weekdays, and increase it a bit more on weekends when people tend to hang out for longer periods. This in turn would help you save better than expected.

Location

If you are trying to save money on these outings, then ditch the 5 star restaurants and high end clubs, and head out to a local bar that is known for its lively crowd and quality drinks. These bars would also serve locally bottled drinks, which tend to be cheaper. For instance, if you stay in India, choosing BII (bottled in India) drinks over Bottled in Origin drinks can save you plenty of money.

Beer First

Try sipping on some beers before moving over to the more expensive drinks. This way, after a couple of glasses, you would not worry about the drinks being local or international, and can easily go in for cheaper drinks without even noticing the difference. This trick would let you save a lot of money on expensive drinks.

Packages and Deals

Many bars and restaurants offer drinking packages like happy hour deals that let you enjoy as many drinks as you want for just a fraction of the cost. Hunt around for the bars that offer the best deal and choose the one that best suits your requirements in terms of quality as well as budget. This would help you save money on these outings to an extent.

Beer

Decanters instead of Glasses, Pitcher instead of shots

Instead of opting for drinks by the glass, you can opt for cheaper alternatives like community drinks like beer on tap, wine in decanter or pitchers. Beer on tap is also much cheaper than the bottled variety. So if you are going with a group of friends, opt for the beer on tap so that you get to drink more for less.
