Nightcrawler Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I shall be having a pre lockdown drink with a mate of mine tomorrow at my local Wetherspoons The beer is cheap enough anyway, before the latest announcement But not because its 99p a pint Stocks of beer have a short shelf life and if not sold within a, short space of time, has to be thrown away. Wetherspoons make their money by volume sales which enables them to keep their prices low. With the forthcoming month of lockdown, it make sense to sell as much off at cost price over the next few days until Thursday. They will continue to make money on food.

Horizondave Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Think the Welsh first minister has announced that the pubs might be open from next Monday, hope there won't be an influx of English lager louts crossing the border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaksey Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 'Spoons are bloody good value in general at any time. central London, pints for £1.99 is fantastic, some of them even have Asahi on tap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've decided, with a few mates to take a half day on Wednesday and have the last drink for 4 weeks. As I don't drink at home, it'll be a good month long detox so trying to look at some positives to come out of the current situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunDon Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 People will only be allowed to cross the border into Wales to work, but not for a pub crawl. Mind you, there’s many on here who consider getting lathered, to be their full time job. 🤣 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightcrawler Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Well, I have seen it all now. I was in Wetherspoons in Petts Wood this afternoon and I went outside for a cigarette. There was a chap sitting outside with 6 pints lined up in front of him (99p a pint). He had with him a plastic gallon container and a funnel. He poured all 6 pints into the container, then picked it up and went to the bus stop. Never seen that done before on London but I guess that will last him a few days at home. 6 pints of real ale for less than six quid. No reason why anyone shouldn't, if its bought and paid for, I guess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I was asking my mate how long before it goes flat. He reckoned 2 to 3 days. I never normally let a pint sit for more than 15 minutes without drinking it😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightcrawler Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 I just received an email from my local Tennis club, saying that their bar will be closing for a month and that if anyone wishes to turn up with plastic containers, then they can fill up at a £1 a pint. I just emailed them back and asked if it applies to Vodka 🙄 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
