shore leave 

When sailors return to shore and usually spend their time doing things they can't do back on ship, such as getting drunk and sleeping with women. This term is also used in many sci-fi stories where space travel is presented.

"How are you feeling commander?"

spend like a drunken sailor on shore leave 

To spend a lot of money at any one given time; taken from the fact that sailors, while on shore leave, used to spend all of their money on whores and alcoholic beverages

I stopped letting my wife use the credit card. Every time she goes to the mall, she spends like a drunken sailor on shore leave!
