When I lived in Ohio, I'd usually spend about $10 - 20 a night at the bars, depending on how many drinks I could get for free. 21 + women usually don't have to pay cover in Oxford.
DC is a whole 'nother animal. We save money by going out earlier to avoid cover and avoiding dance clubs (which isn't really my scene anyway.) I also leave early enough to take the Metro home so I don't have to pay for a cab. I had a tea-infused martini at one bar that was $12, and man was it good, but I can't justify paying for more than one of those.
