What I did was, had my friends meet at my place and we had a limo pick us up, went to dinner then hit a few different clubs-- with a big group like we had, it was so much fun and we all split the cost and didn't end up being too too expensive for anyone! (Plus, all the guys bought all MY drinks, and most of my friends as well! lol)

This year, my 33rd, I don't have a lot of cash and want to celebrate so I think I'm just going to have a group over to my apartment and we can eat and drink and dance the night away for cheap -- good friends is all we really need to celebrate right, after all!
