I am using Quicken to track my expenses, try and see where I spend money, etc. So I have several different categories for things: rent, fuel, gifts, telephone, etc. Here's my question. I wish to buy some alcoholic beverages to consume at tonight's goodbye-to-bassgirl-tank182-and-snuffelupagus party. Which category does it fall under?

Crap, I need to pay LJ again so I can put a poll in here. Oh well, here are your choices (I'm not putting in the obvious ones, like any I listed above) (I'll also add a few examples of what, so far this month, has been spent in these categories):

Dining (any meal eaten out of the house)
Entertainment (movies, tickets to baseball games)
Groceries (stuff to eat at the house)
Recreation (sewing supplies)
Snacks (cookies from the physics building, anything from a vending machine)

What categories it definitely does not fall under: education, fuel, household, gifts, medicine ;)

I will buy a bottle of tequila, but only if people agree to contribute, since I don't get paid for a week. And only if someone else agrees to buy beer.

update: john told me that he bought beer. so I will buy tequila, and any contribution will be appreciated. 750 ml sauza gold.

in fact, I'll go get it now so I can put it in the freezer. I have one lime that I'll bring. I will also bring margarita salt. someone should provide cups, and ice, and minute maid limeade concentrate.

Define beer?

Re:

beer: a low-alcoholic drink made from grain rather than fruit.

john bought some beer, so I'm not concerned about it.

well, the type of beer was what I was going for.
