KEY POINTS:
'Tis the season to be jolly but that is no excuse to drink and drive.
And thanks to a local liquor company, you won't have to.
42 Below vodka will launch a Christmas chauffeur service in Auckland tonight, featuring a fleet of Mini Coopers based around some of the city's hottest bars.
The cars will be available to revellers carrying a 42 Below loyalty card.
Earning one stamp per drink, customers will be entitled to a free ride once they have earned six stamps.
Friends can also combine stamps to claim their free ride home.
Based outside Mea Culpa and Magnum in Ponsonby, Clooney in Victoria Park and Pasha in the Viaduct, the service will operate every Thursday and Friday night between 7 and 11pm, until December 21.
