When i was there last July the price of drinks (bacardi breezers which i mostly drink) were 5.50 euro each if i remember right. I was staying in my apartment on a half board basis last time so didn't have to worry about food then, but this year i'm going self catering and planning on eating out.

Bacardi breezers are cheaper than €5.50!
So it will work out cheaper this year even with the crap exchange rate.

Bloody hell Kitty where were you drinking so I can avoid it?

Keith.

when i was in c/t last year never paid more then 1.50,happy hour way buy 1 get 1 free,

was very happy

bob

im going to have words with them in the highlander they charged me 2e ive been ripped off we stayed at the celeste so used it quite often,to handy to gamble all my money away though

love meatxx

I mostly drank in Tropical but tried a few other places, i could have swore me and my friend were charged that amount . Oh god i'm confused now, i can't even use my brain to try to remember properly as i have monday morning syndrome right now.

My parents are heading to PDC this Thurs i'll get them to check this out for me.

Kitty.......your not going mad that is what Tropical, Ruta 66 and the American Bar (3.50 eu)charge for alcopops.............at least they were a couple of weeks ago.

I guess it's because they're large, popular bars and tend to be dearer that most others in PDC.
We were drinking "Fat Frogs" one night which are made up of 3 various alcopops in a pint glass and we were charged anything between 12 - 15 eu per pint.....having said that you only need 2 of them to be on your back

By the way.....with regard the exchange rate, I checked on getting home with my Nationwide account and I was getting 1.26 - 1.27 to the pound by using my card in the ATM's

Just off the phone to my friend that i was in Lanza with last year, she said she thinks the drinks were 5.00 euro each phew i'm not going crazy then!!

Thanks for letting me know about ATM exchange rates Sapphire, i wasn't going to bring my card with me but may just do so now, i'll need to if i'm going to drink in Tropical lol...

The fat frog is alot cheaper in Spenders!!!!

Good advice about the Nationwide card, you will get the best exchange rate and no charges or commission.
