What Can You Buy For a Dollar in Your Country?

Well I am an Indian and one dollar equals Rs. 45/46 in Indian currency. Here in India, one can buy a good meal for a time from this amount. You must be joking, only a single person would be able to fill his stomach from one dollar and for a single time. Good Luck.

well we use dollars here so I'd say not even a bag of chips. if your currency against dollar is quite high then having a dollar can probably feed you three times a day. Over here, it's impossible to do that, even in a dollar store where you can buy some things a lot cheaper than supermarket and grocery stores.

You could buy a chocolate bar on special for 0.99 here in Australia.

i want to buy a book at my local store, a book that could be used make money. I think become clever & genius people could become a succes person, rather than rich person only.

Hmm well in my country Pakistan in 1$ i can live the whole day with two full meals, i mean lunch and dinner, and at night i can rent a place for sleeping! Also i can get 1.2 litre petrol in 1$!! Thats gr8 for me and all Pakistanis......

Well if I go to a dollar store I can buy any food item for a dollar. I guess soup, some pasta packages. Although I do not ;like the food items that they sell there you can buy food for a dollar but it is something that you have to cook. As far as restaurant food I do not think that there is anything for a dollar any more.

You might be able to buy some kind of food, or Vegetable. You can not eat no days for a dollar unless your on a diet and pinching off food.

For 1 dollar here, you can barely feed a cat! Here, with 1 dollar, you can buy a chocolate bar, and then again, some places sell them 1.00$ + taxes, so you won't have enough.

One dollar here in Iloilo Philippines could only buy one kilo rice, and half kilo fish, since we have a lot of vegetables in our backyards. It's not that big amount but to people from slum area , that can last already for a whole day food.

I might be able to buy one hot dog on a good day when they are barbecuing them out side the store. There is no way I could feed any of my family for $1. It just isn't enough. I do my groceries every two weeks and although we don't buy a lot of extras I still spend $200 every time, and sometimes a little more. We certainly wouldn't get far on just one dollar although I wish we could :) Great topic.

1 dollar is just like 0,85 euro. For one dollar i can buy a pack eggs or a bread.
