Whether you are working, still studying, or both, you spend a certain amount of money on a daily basis for your needs and wants. Personally, I spend an average of Php300 (around US$7.35) on food and other stuffs. However, my expenses are higher during the weekends. On Fridays and Saturdays or even on Sundays, I normally spend around Php500 (around US$12.25). I spend more when I need to refuel my car. I spend Php1,000 (US$24.50) almost every other week; more if I go on long driving.. How about you? How much (approximately) do you spend on a daily basis?

Yep, we have to spend on a daily basis and sometimes we do missed out on the essentials like electric bills, water, telephone, internet,laundry etc. I dont think we will be able to make it without spending as we have much needs and wants. I do spend around P300-500 ($7-$15) per day just on food and basis neccesity. SOmetimes we avoid going out on weekends as we pend around P1000-2000($25-$50) per trip not to mention the weekly groceries and supplies which is around P2000($50). And this are just the essentials not for any luxurious splrugings.
