About This Quote

Cheap booze is a false economy. When people say, “Cheap booze is a false economy,” they are saying that paying a little more for a better product will be worth it. The first thing you should know about cheap booze is that it’s highly dangerous. An alcoholic who drinks cheap booze won’t see the need to stop drinking until he or she has consumed enough alcohol to cause death or serious injury. That’s why it’s important to buy the best stuff possible.
