Tell us about measures that go beyond simple belt tightening into the realms of Mr Scrooge.

A little preachy, aren't we?- Buying drinks for other people: yes, but the theory - at least in a British pub - is that your friends will buy you one back
- Vomit cleaning bills: Clean up your own vomit
- Increased toilet water bills: Got a garden? Your plants will benefit from a spray of nitrogenated water
- Waste management: WTF? Does drinking make you shit everywhere or something?
- Fixing the car: You're told not to drink and drive for a reason
- Hangovers: Learn your limits, don't drink so much the next time and stop moaning about it
- Higher electric bill: If you drank real beer, you wouldn't need to chill it.
I'm sorry to be very sarcastic, but referring to having a drink as "the lifestyle" just makes you sound really sanctimonious.
