Beer's expensive. If you're lucky, you can find a twelve for less than a buck a can at 2am, but that's increasingly rare as corner stores capitalize on our insatiable thirst for cheap tasting booze. Thankfully, one such price gouging 24th St. liquor store has a quick fix for these hard times: DIY Tecate six packs. Present the seller with ten measly dollars and he'll present you with a box cutter so your night cap-to-be can be divided up into a portion you can afford.

ten bucks for tecate?
that’s how much I pay for ginny extra stout if it’s not on sale
6 cans of Tecate is ~3 fl oz of pure alcohol. By comparison, with 80 proof vodka, you’d only need 8 fl oz to get the same amount. So if you just want to get fucked up, the bums have the math right – stick to a little bottle of Royal Gate.
(Now supposedly the Mexican version of Tecate is stronger, but I dunno if that’s true. In any case you have to take a plane to Mexico to get it, and that’s going to cut your margins.)
gah those chicks arent even super hot gah
