Will you be rushing to buy alcohol before price hike?

NiccoLau · 13 Mar 2008 at 21:37

Title says it all.

Alcohol prices will rise after this sunday.

Isn't it just a few pennies?

shimy182 · 13 Mar 2008 at 21:39

naa.

its only a couple of pence, i can live with it. Plus i dont drink much at home.

TripleT · 13 Mar 2008 at 21:40

Yer it's like 5p a pint... So I doubt it's going to make me change at all thanks.

Don't be a pillock. You'd have to buy hundreds of pounds worth to even save a fiver...

Quite why the papers are making such a fuss out of this is beyond me. It's a pain in the arse in the long run, but why anyone thinks that panic buying will help is beyond me.

I'm going to be drinking on Friday and Saturday, so I will be buying some before Sunday.

It's only going up 4p a pint!

Much the same as me, I'm hardly going to be stockpiling it in the hopes of beating the price increase unless my ordinary drinking counts for that purpose.

Oh I know, Get REALLY drunk on saturday to the extent you wake UP paralytic. Save your self, what like 80p on 20pints?!!? Just to defy those communist *******'s!

In answer to your question. No

QUICK STOCKPILE NOW BEFORE THE PROHIBITION KICKS IN!!!!!

Or just save yourself the cupboard-space and spend a few extra pennies next time you need to buy booze.

Nope, I don't waste my money on alcohol.

As the price rise is Sunday I will make sure I visit loads of pubs tomorrow and Saturday and buy as much as I can

Me neither. Not one penny of it is wasted.

PardonTheWait · 13 Mar 2008 at 23:12
