You can probably safely factor in 2x a week social events (bars? clubs? etc), snacks, and supplies every now and then. Thbrow in $15-$20 a week for gas if you have a car. I doubt you'd need more than $100, $125 weekly.

My expenditures vary so vastly. Some months, when I am broke for whatever reason, I spend like $150 over my bills, some months it is near $1k (if I run goot pokering).

With all due respect, every college kid everywhere claims to be a big time drinker and spends "$100" to get "blasted" whenever they go out to the bar. This is almost always overexaggerated BS, so I can safely say I doubt you spend $100 when you go out to suck down $1.50 cans of Mil Best.

I think you are overlooking somethings. Yes, most of the time it's just 3-6$ bottles of beer depending on where you go to school -- but about every other time out (like everytime lately for me) people like to switch it up. When I am taking shots i prefer Patrone Silver which at some places is up to like $15 a shot. Mix in a couple of top-shelf mix drinks for the 6.5 that now looks like a 9 you're tryna take home and you can get over 100$ in no time. Not to mention a 25% tip.

Also I live pretty close to the casino which has several clubs so after losing monies all day at the table (and accumulating HUGE tabs there), off to the night club for more tabs [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] ...

but on the nights where it's just some cheer bottle beer it doesn't get over 50. Hopefully!
