I was in Tesco tonight with my OH while bought some beer for going to his mates tonight. While looking about I noticed you could get 2Lt of Tesco cider for £1.32 ! I thought it would be really weak but it was 4.2%. I do drink in the house at the weekend (bad mum!), and I dont complain at getting a bottle of spirits on offer at £10 but I thought that took the p*ss.

Im not slagging people on benefits (Im one!) but no wonder so many people can stumble about with kids (like in Gemz post) if alcohol is this cheap. It also means that kids can get blocked for less than the price of a happy meal! Im getting old & narky....

iv a person on my news feed who is always saying stuff like.. woohoo i found 40p thats me got enuff for my cider the night!! and she has this status every other night and 2 wee kids.

iv had guests round twice this week. wed night was fantastic night. ferg was up stairs with the weans, they were in bed and all was well. and last night and they wernt here.

i drink in the house, its cheaper than going out half the time!!!

It is really cheap and thats what kids drink cider i remember my dad drinking white lightening when i was younger 2litre bott for £200 crazzzy xx

£1.32???? Wow that's ridiculously cheap!!!

I'm really boring, the last time I had any alcohol of any description was 4 years ago, and that was just a glass of champagne at my uncles birthday party x

Woah £1.32 that's just wrong isn't it!? I imagine it tastes like something your gran peed into a bottle but still!

It's ridiculous that you can buy a bottle of cider for less than a bottle of coke! No wonder so many kids are binge drinking. When I was 13/14 we used to drink white lightning at £2.50 for a 3 litre bottle it was more than enough to get 3 of us pissed, I don't drink at all now because it just doesn't agree with me anymore but back then I thought it was fab!

Wish i had cheaper tastes...

i think it's nasty, you can't get a decent bar of chocolate for that. i am a very anti-alcohol person, and when i see on the news the statistics of alcohol related injury/cost/death it is beyond me why they still sell it so cheap. horrible.

70% of weekend ED admissions are alcohol related. You know how often i clean beer puke off the floor? Def agree mari

Plus id rather have the choccie, im a rare drinker

That's it! I'm moving over there to the land of cheap booze and fabby take out!

there was a+thing with tesco that they are gettin sued due to the fact they was at one
point+selling a can of beer
cheaper than water. Tesco said they didn't want to do cheap drinks+or+drink offers but had to due to the competition between them and other supermarkets!

i find it hard to believe tesco are on the verge of going under cos they dont sell value lager anymore!

thats ridiculous!! when i was in school we would get a 2litre bottle oh white lightening for £2 which wud get both of us wrecked but omg it hurt ure guts the next day! like paint stripper!!
