A cab ride to the strip in traffic can easily run $30 off the top just to get there. And I probably have thousands of $$$'s worth of bar tab receipts. A couple years back it was easily $300 of booze in a weeks time in the bars. Probably more. We used to scrape our friends off the sidewalks outside.
But if you find a really cool spot in LA and hang out there often, usually the bartenders get smart and forget to tally all your drinks on the tab, so you can make it up to them with a nice tip. The best spots have the best tunes on the box.
