Shitty restaurant-10 bucks at most
just went bowling from 11 pm to 2 am for 19 bucks total. (double your time estimate for same price) For just two games, which is about an hour and a half, 12 dollars.
Movies is about right, some theatres our student discount is 9.50, for snacks tho overpriced, not nearly as much as you state (who gets 15 bucks worth of food after eating? perhaps its different for me since im a girl). candy-3.00.
Anyways, my point is not to argue prices. My point is that you say a night filled with stuff is better than "sitting at home watching tv or playing boggle" but costs too much than a good party and some alcohol. I dont see much of a difference between messing around with friends at home, and messing around with friends at home with alcohol. Yeah, there's the whole "drunk" factor and such, but in both instances youre sitting around. To compare that to a night filled with a ton of stuff--I dont think many people actually go to a restaurant and bowling and movies all in the same night--and complaining about the price is not fair. Perhaps complain about how one activity such as bowling is just too expensive for you to enjoy.
I guess this is where you and I differ: you would rather do the same thing with your free time, and I would rather find new things to do. I'd honestly rather have more "remember when we were here/or here/or there" rather than "remember when we were at that party and getting drunk/high at that other one/or those chicks at another party." I guess everyone has their preference.
