Ballin' on a budget

Posted By on Mon, Feb 1, 2010 at 11:33 AM

I posted the following on my Facebook page: Brittney Cason is writing an article about "Ballin' on a Budget"... where can people go to find the best drink specials?! ... and nightlife on clearance? And I got so many informative responses, I figured I might as well just post the comment thread for your infotainment...

Jayson Knight: Al Mike's. As far as nightlife on a budget, anything outside of 28202. Dammit Janet is tons of fun.

Jason Sandwick: No such thing unless you are female...then you can do it anywhere there are guys....

Matt McLean: or a hot gay guy........

Bailie Ann Thompson: Try most places in Plaza-Midwood or NoDa-you'll be out under $50 food and drink!

Rachel Sunset Miller: Well, it's not $1 beer night, but The Sunset Club has $100 bottle/VIP service and 1/2 price bottles of wine on Wednesday night.

Jay Hagerman: My buddy started www.charlottehappyhour.com. It'll have everything you need for each day of the week.

Hannah Toole: Trader Joes is where you can ball on a budget- 3 buck chuck!(wine) Angry Ale's has $2 domestic Mondays and Brixx Pizza has half price wine on Sunday's, $1.95 domestic drafts on Monday (including microbrews)

Sophia Burrowes: Zink American Kitchen! Everyday there is a $2 beer special and $5 liquor special. Half price sushi from 5 - 7 Mon thru friday. $2 drafts on Saturdays ALL DAY (sam adams, milk stout, etc.) Come out tomorrow from 5 - 7 for happy hour with The McDevitt Agency and check it out! Great for your article.

George Pappas Park Lanes: Bowling is $.79 a game on Monday Nights from 9pm-cl. We also run a Sunday Night Special from 8pm-11pm for $11.99 per person. The shoe rental is free with both of these specials.

Lauren Elizabeth Thomas: I work at Town Tavern and wanted to pitch in their specials. On Wed we do $2.50 Ultras, Coors lights and $4 well drinks. On Thursdays its Beer pong night we start about 9 and do 25 cent Miller light draft and $2 Miller light bottles. Fridays between 8-10 we have $2 you call it. That excludes top shelf like Greygoose and patron but everything else including beer and wine is $2! And Saturday its $2.50 Bud lights! Hope this helps your article

Quincy Blanco: I agree with Lauren .. Town Tavern iz def the place 2 Roc if U wanna ball on a budget!! .. went there last wk and had a blast!

Jason Astephen: Well 50 cent drafts on Thursday nights @ Buckhead should fit any budget!!!

Matthew T King-Lineberry: Hawthornes on 7th hands down...Monday nights they have ALL draughts $1.50. Great selection too. Good place to ease into the work week on the cheap. Hope all is well with you, Miss Cason

Amy Lyttle McCarter: 25 comments and my lame ass can't think of a single place to recommend. God, it's been a while since I've gotten out! :-P Good luck with the article.

Milton Boyd: I think your idea is well worth the effort.

Kristen Gaddis: Brixx Woodfire pizza, everyday we have a drink special, everyday except Monday we have $3.00 jagers, and royal flushes (only at the southpark location). And everyday after 10pm its buy one get one, meaning either 2 pizzas or appetizer for the price of one!
