Cheapest shop bought alcohol

[Mad Cat]

I'm just wondering what the cheapest alcohol is in the UK. I mean actual alcohol (amount (ml) * volume (percent) [eg. 700ml at 40% volume = 700 * 0.4 = 280 ml of licquor], then work out an alcohol to price ratio. I'm gonna have a go on Tesco price check later, any bets?
Probably Tesco value whiskey or something.

Netto's do a bottle of 70cl Peach Schnapps, for £3.99. (27%)
And it tastes better than Archers too. :snooty:

[Virtualbody1234]

A thread for the value oriented or cheap alcoholic. :P

[Peerzy]

I don't care about the price, stellar artois is reasuringly expensive :snooty:

[Mr. Mulder]

there's a few places that only sell out-of-date beer, you can get boxes for a fiver, which would work out at 5/8%Vol for something like 41p per can. the only problem is drinking it all before it gets too out-of-date, such a burden but it has to be done :unsure:

Some members or my family found a load of out of date beer at the skip once, at took it away for free :pinch:.

EDIT: Netto's near me do a 70cl bottle of 40% vodka for 8 quid or so.

Doesn't drinking pure alcohol like kill you, thats 95% so im pritty sure a quick swig of that would knock you out stone cold. I think it like fucks up your lungs or kidneys or one of those sqweshy parts in your body,

[{I}{K}{E}]

it burns your oesophagus :pinch:

[manker]

95% proof is different to 95% pure alcohol. A swig of 100% proof won't kill you.

I read about it once but can't be arsed with teh googleage.

100% proof = 50% alcohol and so on.

As opposed to the now standard ABV, Alcohol By Volume.

Or in the USA (as ever contrary) ABW, Alcohol By Weight.

:tits:

So you need to know whereof you speak.

40% ABV is not 40% proof, it's 80% proof.

Let us now do a meaningful calculation.

My ASDA Apple shall be the benchmark.

Volume x %ABV / £cost

3000ml x 5.3% / £2.38

66.80 apple units per pound

[manker]

3litres for £2.38 :lol:

My Stella:

3408ml X 5.2% / £5.00

35.44 string vests per pound.

[JPaul]

3litres for £2.38 :lol:

My Stella:

3408ml X 5.2% / £5.00

35.44 string vests per pound.
Hoi, it's quality stuff, scattercash.

I bring science to t'table and you mock me :snooty:

Are you going to furnish us with a pic of this Azad Apple. I don't think I've ever seen it.

(I Don't go shopping much) :unsure:

Wee MacBannockburns look after the pennies.

It would appear the pounds look after themselves.

the only thing cheaper may be wine (night train/md20:20)

You penny-pinchers should buy quality stuff instead... (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/4651305.stm)

Californian Wine > French Wine

[Guillaume]

Not working J'Rod.

[JPaul]

Not working J'Rod.
:lol:

I am basing this on the taste of Mrs JP who has become a fan of the Californian Red. Can't remember what the specific one is called, but she appears to prefer Californian wine as a whole.

Is the World's most popliar red wine not in fact a Californian one.

I must google this.
