Everyone knows that the only thing better than cheap stuff is free stuff--especially when it comes to stuff that can get you drunk (even if you have to drop a few bucks on something else to get your fix of booze). From a bottomless glass of boxed wine with dinner to free cosmos at the nail salon, these deals will help you get the most alcohol for your buck.
