Man flies to Ibiza and buys a pint for less than the price of a crate of beer in UK supermarket

A budget jetsetter has left social media users baffled after sharing how he managed to fly all the way to Ibiza to enjoy a pint for less than it would cost to buy a crate of beer in London. TikToker, Callum Ryan took to the popular video streaming site to share his journey as he said 'he set himself a challenge' to fly overseas to Spain and sit down for a drink in a bar without going over his £15 budget.

The idea came about after the 22-year-old went to his local supermarket and spotted a crate of 12 cans of Estrella for £15 and was determined to complete his adventure abroad without exceeding the store's price, the Mirror reports. The young traveller got lucky and managed to find a last-minute flight that cost him only £10 from London to Ibiza and set out to find a cheap bar on the Spanish island.

As he walked around, Callum said: "I had a little stroll around to find the most popular restaurant and headed straight there." He ordered lunch which he didn't count into the budget and then asked for a pint of Estrella and waited to see what it would cost him.

He said: "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."

The pint on its own was €4 which is £3.22 in sterling, meaning Callum had just scraped the £15 limit. . Ecstatic to have achieved his goal, Callum, known as @thatonecal kissed the receipt and said: "We did it! We flew all the way to Ibiza and bought a pint cheaper than a crate of beer."

One person replied: "Guess I'm going to Ibiza then". Another one questioned: "How do you keep doing this?

A third remarked: "Shows how much of a joke the UK is, let's all go abroad," while another impressed user commented: "Killed it."

Others who were more sceptical of Callum's money saving hack questioned how the TikToker had gotten back to London while another noted it was 'less beer though'.
