Hahaha. The key has always been to head for the door thirty minutes before you actually wanted to leave.
Ive always called it 'ninja bailing' and it's one of the few things I do that I don't regret. Most of the time my friends are drunk enough to not even notice or remember that I left.
When my band plays we get mobbed afterwards with people wanting to talk to us, buy us drinks, etc. I usually stick around for about half an hour then ghost out, disappear, and go home. I'm single, but not interested in dating, and it always makes the other guys in the band laugh at how that drives the ladies crazy. And some of the men too lol.
If you don't go to parties, you can save even more
how many parties do you need to go to to save up that much now, lol
Another comment mentions heading for the door 30 minutes before you intend to leave. At that rate, one needs to leave a party early almost twice every week to save two days a year.
That only makes sense if I leave my one party per year two days early.
