Lad flies to Ibiza and buys a pint for less than the cost of beer crate

A lad ended up flying to Ibiza and having a pint, which was cheaper than it cost to buy a beer crate in a UK supermarket

While it is usually more cost effective to buy a crate of beer and drink at home, nothing beats having a nice cold pint in the sun does it?

According to the Office for National Statistics, the average retail price of a pint of lager in the UK is currently £4.23, which is 50p more than it was three years ago.

The price of alcohol in the supermarket is not much better either, as TikToker Callum Ryan found out.

In his local store, Callum found a crate of Estrella lager (which holds 12 bottles) for £15, so he 'set himself a challenge' to see if he could fly overseas and enjoy a pint for less than that.

Luckily, the TikToker found a bargain last minute flight from London to Ibiza for just £10 - quite the deal for a nice getaway, eh?

Of course, Callum, 22, bagged the cheap flight, and as he landed on the sunny Spanish island, he was feeling rather thirsty.

And what are you going to do after landing in sunny Ibiza, a pub beer garden, of course!

The price of a crate of beer these days is not the cheapest, so Callum 'set himself a challenge'.

As he walked around Ibiza on what looked like a beautiful summers day, Callum said: "I had a little stroll around to find the most popular restaurant and headed straight there."

He filmed himself walking into the restaurant and sitting down as the waiter came over and asked him what he would like.

Callum first ordered lunch - though he said that the lunch didn't count in the budget as it was an 'optional extra'.

Alongside that, the Brit ordered a pint of Estrella - the same beer he found in the crate back on home soil.

"When the pint arrived, it looked beautiful. The sun was beaming down on my face and I couldn't be happier. But once I'd finished my food, it was time to pay the bill," Callum said.

Excluding the food, the pint on its own cost €4, which works out at £3.22.

Add that to the £10 flight out to Ibiza, Callum is £1.78 under budget.

Somehow the price of the flight and the pint was cheaper than the crate of lager in the UK.

Just think about that for a second - catching a flight out to Ibiza and having a pint in the sun, is somehow cheaper than buying a 12-pack of lager in a British supermarket.

Obviously, Callum got a cheap deal on the flights, but it certainly shows that there are bargains out there.

Since he uploaded the video to his TikTok account (@thatonecal) on Monday (3 April), it has achieved over 30,000 views.

Viewers appear to be interested in doing the challenge themselves, as one person wrote: "Guess I'm going to Ibiza then." Meanwhile, a second added: "Shows how much of a joke the UK is, let's all go abroad."

Speaking to LADbible, Callum said: "The TikTok video has been part of an ongoing series over on my socials!

"The main aim is to show people how cheap travel can be (that night out/ night in could be easily replaced with a weekend away!). Travelling experiences cannot be beaten."
