Schoolies
ok, in my position what would you do, my schoolies will cost me about $900, so these are the decicions i have to make, not goto schoolies and have my VL sooner, or goto schoolies, and not have it until ahh march next year
this is hell annoying for me, but i heard if you are a smart ass to someone at schoolies they will like stab you :P
i already paid my deposit though, but im not worried about that loss
i just need your opinions...
if i dont go, im looking at having the VL bymarch/april, yes i know schoolies aint till november, but i will be pumping all mymoney into the car
work done by ME
wellllll, get the car and dont spend all your money on it, just drive it and cruze in it till you got enough money, but 5then again there is always more schoolies. but you might not want to go another time... hrmm i bet that didnt help at all

You dont have to go all out for schoolies. How bout you and some mates just head to the coast, get an appartment for the week or weekend some drinks a few snags and party hard!!

Yeah don't deny schoolies, it will be the best time of your life.
i already have a deposit down for our townhouse we got for a week, it has all washing facilities, pool, hopefully BBQ yeh, and ill need atleast $200 for grog
swear word
$900 for schoolies? Are u planning strippers? all u need is a swag (maybe a tent), enough booze and money for maccas every day. I missed my schoolies for work reasons and i am regretting it everyday. Alot of my mates had the bare essentials and had a bloody good time
yeh, but you know i wanted it good, until now, and ill lose the deposit i think if i back down
Beats a Kick in the Face!
Gotta go schoolies. You have all your life to own a car....
Or buy the car, stuff the townhouse, live out of the car or just go to a backpackers.
I did that and we had some wild times
I went to schoolies in 2005 on the Gold Coast and didnt cost me $900!!!
My accomodation was $550 and you seriously wont spend $200 on alcohol. I got smashed pretty much every night (1 week) and didnt spend that much. A couple nights only had a few drinks and headed to the beach etc etc.
Do schoolies, its a great time.. pack the water bombs and chuck them off your balcony, ahhh the good times.
Some people say less talk more action, i say more torque less traction.
our accomodation is like $600, then money for food and grog, how ever much that works out to be

Damn, mine was about 120 for accomodation for 4-5 nights. Alcohol was maybe, 100 or so. And I spent 50 or so on groceries before I left. Cheap as chips.

Me and 3 of my best mates got together for our schoolies trip - we didnt go to the Gold Coast, we went to Caloundra (Sunshine Coast) because one of their aunts owns an apartment there - $50 each for the week. Yeah, it wasnt as glamorous, there were no huge parties every night, but we knew a group of girls who were staying just around the corner so we had our own parties and made it work!
Some others went to the Gold Coast, and they definitely didnt pay that much - their rooms were tents, and they had a blast.

ah, screw schoolies, just kick back with some mates, no need to do the typical go and get drunk thing for 1 full week, do something different. schoolies has now become a tourist thing, people trying to cash in on young teenage kiddies out to celerbrate their end of secondary studies,
but on the same note, you will have the rest of your life to save up and buy the perfect vl, you never know, ya might even see some other car you like.

Nothing witty to say :(
Go to schoolies. You'll have an awesome time. VLs have been around this long, I'm sure a few more months won't hurt!
schoolies was the greatest time ever, u cant miss it, $200 on alcohol easy, if u start drinking every day at lunch time and drinking steadily till 12pm or later u can drink a carton a day.. my leavers was in dunsbrough wa, only cost around $600 it was $280 for accomidation in a caravan park for the week
yeh, i have payed deposit already, so i cant ditch the place im staying at, on of my friends wants me there coz he doesnt like 1 of the other people, and doesnt know the other

you can certainly do it cheap if you want to. but allowing 900 means youll be able to go all out. i did 10 days, got the apartment for free (family penthouse at Copacabana) and still blew $1000.
think of things like entry to clubs, we did a pub crawl with plan-b tours which was awesome i think it was about 150, plenty on grog, hired some mopeds for a while, themeparks while we were there etc.
Grab the car a bit later mate. it will really have a great time.
im a bit confused though, unless ive missed a post, why youre worrying about schoolies already, i know its a good idea to book the apartment early but youve got all year to sort out money and cars!
I camped down in Lorne (VIC) and it cost me like $75 for the site (shared) for like 5 nights, booze cost the most. But had awesome time, anyone would enjoy it
<---Brad Quaid = internet stalker
ive always had trouble seeing lorne as the schoolie type place... we used to camp there as a family.
i booked in september last year, everything is allll booked out by now
so thats why im thinking about it now, its not all year, i have to pay for it by september at the latest
<---Brad Quaid = internet stalker
yeah im with ya now. i forgot how fast accom books out for schoolies cos we didnt have to book (so to speak) the family place, which isnt hired to schoolies anyway.
Youll have a blast mate.
No substitute for CUBES
Done Schoolies, and then done toolies... Twice!!!
Cant give you financial advice.
Either way you will regret not doing the other.
If all your mates are going on holiday you would miss out on a great holiday.
Note: You will need every dollar you can get to survive at schoolies. Everyone tries to rip u off. First the accomidation, then the clubs! $100 a day on grog is wat i spent for the first couple of days... So expect to spend big!!!
