It's ok. Well, I've been here for two months, I spend about QR 200-300 per week mainly on food and cigaratte, other expenses all covered. FYI I cook mostly during weekdays and eat out during weekends like what I used to do in London.

I'm well entertained at home with internet access and cable TV. There's nothing much interesting here that encourage me to spend. I'd rather save some money and travel to more interesting countries every 3 months.

In short, it depends on your life style really, but at first instance when u decide to move here u already know u have to give up on that!

p/s if u are single u should stay home during weekend coz it's family day and u shouldn't go to shopping mall to spend money.
