I think you actually have to pay a lot more for the privilege of staying in the U.S. and you get very little in return for that privilege. There is only a fleeting appearance of benefit.
Does this mean it is impossible to buy a cup of cheap coffee for QR3?
Can you buy two kilograms of frozen chicken breasts for QR30? A Kilogram of sliced turkey for QR53?
Not that it is wise to eat fast food, but the online Cost of Living comparisons put fast food meals at the same price of around QR21 to AED21. A can of Coca-Cola costs AED1.5. How much in QR?
The sample CoL break down at the link below suggests that some things are indeed more expensive, but other things are about the same as in the UAE or less expensive.
We buy 30 eggs for AED18 here in Al Ain. QR17 for 24 eggs is close enough. We also pay AED8 for a five-gallon container of water. What does this cost in Doha?

Any disagreements with any of the estimates?
