Applebee's

My friend Ben had a brilliant idea the other day on a Friday afternoon. We all hop in the car and hit Applebee's in New York state for Happy Hour. Half priced apps & cheap ass beer. Better fucking believe that it makes for a Happy Hour. I just had a craving for their awesome chicken wings and cheap beer. The only place that offers something like would be in the province of Quebec.

In Ontario they're too fucking uptight so there cannot be 2 for 1 beers or anything of that nature. I work in Quebec so there's Happy Hour pretty much everywhere. Last night I hit Le Bistro I had 3 beers. I cost me 6 dollars!!! I also believe the Stella on tap is $3.50 a pint. Unbelievable. I do not know how they stay in business. I could have stayed there all fucking night and not blow more than $50. Are you fucking kidding me? Did I jump in time machine that brought me back 10 years?

I've also been buying my beer in depanneurs or grocery stores in Quebec. The past couple of times I paid under $26 for a case. Albeit they were on special. But then I stock up and sell the rest. That's at least a 10 dollar savings. If I need beer and there's nothing else decent on sale in Quebec I'll go buy the cheap stuff. That way if I don't drink it and it goes skunk, I don't feel too bad.
