Enough for food?

I have recieved my first salary and had a lot of initial expenses I have a budget for this month of 3500QR for food alone. I am a single guy and don't eat expensively or anything.

Will 3500QR last me for 1 month for food bills?

Thank you in advance.

My family of four eat very well on less than 3500. So you should be able to eat until you bust.

Keep 3000 as your budget. send the rest 500 to charity or my account.

share your food or money for food with others..

i think a family of 4 can live on 3500 per month on food expenses. unless u r trying to buy stuff from Megamart (meant those items tht they bring from UK and stuff like breads) which u can just buy from the local shops. although love their choclates and english muffin :)

3500QR for food is more than enough - especially for a month. you can have it last for 2 - 3 months at times :D

In my case, just like you, I dont eat expensively too..

Normally, i allot 500 for my grocery items (well that includes some non-food stuff that I need to buy for the house).. And it lasts for a month, sometimes for 6 weeks.

I am more into bread, pastas, yogurts. :)

Whoa! it's too much for a month grocery, but if you're the type whose fond of dining out to fancy restaurants, prefers to call for food delivery rather than cooking, well i think that's quite enough. :)

Have a great one! TC.. :)
