Going through some of the above answers was just wondering how some of the guys who are part of the labour force are expected to get by with Qr 700.00 a month or is it that they have subisidized grocery stores around their camps and coupons to help them along.
Depends on your nationality.
Also, try to save a cash payment for a vehicle. There are bargains if you can pay one lump sum payment for a used vehicle. (people leaving) Banks and the loans are not cheap. Found the loan terms and fees to be considerably higher than home, and not a bargain. The best plan is to arrange a ride with a coworker, pay them for gas, until you find a good vehicle in Qatar Living. Withing 2 months you will come across someone leaving and selling at a discount.
I don't know your history or your lifestyle, but I have two contributions. Food bills are reasonable. I only eat out in restaurant 1/month and keep my house stocked with staples and cook my own meals. Don't try to re-create my menu from home (don't spend on expensive brands.) People I work with spend 2x or 3x more than me. As a single, I can spend under 500/month.

for acomodation u need 8000QR
1500 for car
5000 family food
u can save 7000
depends, if you want a villa u have to pay around 10 000 monthly, if you want a nice flat with 2 or 3 bedrooms then u can find for 5000 or 6000 furnished. car loan u can get easily with that salary and u have just 1 child so its fine..
The biggest expenses here are:
1. Good and reasonable accommodation..
2. Children nursery/schooling st any international school.
