Alcohol

For Example: Jameson Irish Whiskey

~$5.50 a shot at a bar
~$24.00 for a 1 liter bottle at a liquor store

If shots are 1 oz., then a bottle's worth of shots at a bar would cost you ~$176.00
If shots are 1.5oz., then a bottle's worth of shots at a bar would cost you ~$117.00
If shots are 2 oz., then a bottle's worth of shots at a bar would cost you ~$88.00

This is why I don't go out very much.

On an economically-related note, a man called in to a talk show last night on 1500am to talk about the "economic crisis". He said that a huge part of the problem was that houses/properties were being sold for too much money which created less demand. Remember a few years ago when the whole loft/condo building thing was really hoppin'? Units were being sold for way more than they were worth, and now that the demand has dropped, prices are much more accurate. That makes a lot of sense to me.
