Beer/Wine/Alcohol Budget...?
How much does your DH (or you) spend a month on beer/wine/alcohol?
Not including parties or big events. Maybe a friend over here or there and your own personal use at home.
What do you spend a week/month?

Re: Beer/Wine/Alcohol Budget...?
probably about $30 a week on average.
I am the queen of the cheap whites for every day use. dh drinks red mostly.
we don't spend more than $10 for a white, $15 for a red for our "every day" wine.
that might sound pretentious.  I dont' mean it to.

Re: Beer/Wine/Alcohol Budget...?
Nothing really. We only drink wine at home, and even that's only 1 or 2x a month. Sometimes we go a few months without buying, and then just stock up on a couple bottles when we run out.
When we go on vacation we like to pick up a couple bottles, and then around the holidays DH gets a few at work as gifts, so that keeps us stocked too.

In the summer, we will buy beers weekly for BBQs but that's about it.

Re: Beer/Wine/Alcohol Budget...?
We always have wine, beer and liquor (whiskey - two to three kinds, vodka, gin and rum) in the house.
I would say that per month, for use in the house, we spend roughly $50-75.
For going out...it depends. We go out less in the winter, but now that it's nice out, we'll be going out more. I would say during the warm months, we easily drop $50-75 a weekend on going out to drink.
So...we're looking at about $250-300 a month on booze!

Re: Beer/Wine/Alcohol Budget...?
I budget $50 for myself now - used to be $100 a month.
Summer's coming though so I need to be careful with spending on booze.

Yup, this sounds about right and then add about another $100 for DH.

Re: Beer/Wine/Alcohol Budget...?
Not much at all. If DH's buddies come over they usually bring the beer. If DH goes to his friends house, he'll bring the beer.

Re: Beer/Wine/Alcohol Budget...?
when I'm not pg, maybe $20 month. DH doesn't drink beer or wine and I like inexpensive wine with dinner sometimes, but not often.
We usually have vodka, jagermeister, and some sort of baileys in the house, but that lasts forever.

Re: Beer/Wine/Alcohol Budget...?
We dont really drink...
I cant figure it out weekly or monthly...
Per year...
I'll usually pick up a bottle of dark rum once the weather gets warmer for Pina Coladas. That will last through the season....
DH will pick up a case of Sam Adams Octoberfest in the fall that will last him 6 months. (And that's with cooking with it..I use it to make my beer batter)
We usually have a few bottles of red and/or white for cooking...
A bottle of cheap vodka (again for cooking)...
We pick up the occasional 6 pack of Corona or Mikes Hard Lemonade in the summer....
And around the holidays I usually pick up a bottle of Kahlua & DiSoranno for Toasted Almonds...
That's pretty much it...

Re: Beer/Wine/Alcohol Budget...?
DH doesn't really drink anymore so I really will have to say 0 unless it's football and he has a friend over or it's summer and we have a bbq. And especially since I'm pregnant we haven't bought anything since Superbowl.
Once this kid is out, I plan on having lots and lots of wine! I'm cheap-Cavit Pinot Grigio is my fav lol

Nothing. We have a stocked liquor cabinet, but only make drinks for special occasions or for company.
On a daily basis, neither of us drink at all, so we never buy alcohol unless we are having people over.
