Night out is so open to interpretation.

Living in London I can go down to the local wetherspoons and have a decent drinking session for £20 (iirc Brewdog is under £2.50 a bottle) or I can go an spend more than a sensible amount on a meal and few cocktails and an uber ride home.

Just depends on the night out as it always has – don’t think the world has changed that much, just grew up a little, go out less and expect a little more from a night out.
