Adams: I go many shabbosim without alcohol. It depends if I am eating at home. If I eat elsewhere with only soda, I drink soda.
Also, there is no such thing as a shabbos only addiction. It would make no sense.
That is not close to 50 a week. A 6 pack costs 8 bucks. A bottle of scotch is say 40, and has 25 shots. So 1.60 per shot.
Total for 2 meals equals $16 assuming average 5 shots and a 6 pack over shabbos. Wife doesn’t drink.
What was your math?
