I tricklet I started using during the UFC weekends (some hotel bars price list can be worst than strip clubs! what a rip off) is that I drink alot of water, so before I leave the house I fill a wee bottle halfway with sambuca or clear tequilla.
If you're not caught (ie. there's no one checking bags at the door) you've saved yourself a good £30 worth in spirits, if you are and have to ditch the bottle at the door, you won't have wasted more than £3 if you spend say £15 on a bottle at the supermarket, and at least you can have a sip before entering the venue.
I get alot of shit from people about this, teasing about me and my 'water', sometimes it's hard not to throw the whole deal at them but it always ends up qith 5 leeches bugging you all night for a sip.

Works better with women because we can keep everything in our bags though (and we're slightly less likely to be searched, specially if you can pull a part... even though we have the extra accessory to hide bottles in)

Can't help you about the rest, I survive at having no life outside the internet and its unlimited free access to free movie downloads :P

haha thats exactly how my misses would be when I first met her and we'd go out in pubs, but she'd still get me to buy her orange juice all night to mix it in to, so who loses out? I do lol And the ladies bag is a excellent way to smuggle stuff into cinemas too.

There's these popcorn selling at asda close to my previous flat, way better than at the cinema (and coincidently cheaper too!... but that was only secundary, they were really yummmi) and I used to take them in my rucksack (I used to go there straight from the gym, literally, as it was in the same building).
A bottle of whatever, et voilá.
