How much in Sigapore dollars would it cost

[thailen]

to live(room cost is already paid!)? Recognizing that that we all differ in lifestyle, taste, habits, etc. and assuming one eats two average meals a day consuming more or less basic meals, minimal(1 trip every 2 days) public transportation, covering just food, transportation, toiletries, how much for a week's living expenses?

Basic meals, between 4$ to 6$, per meal, depending on your taste and if you can accept local hawker food. Good, filling, Basic meal in outskirts can be below 5 $, town area - 8$ and upwards.

I am not talking about restaurant meals. Restaurant meals can start from 15$ per meal. Or much more.

Transportation, budget 15$ + for EZ link, the local bus / train fare card. Rides cost about 2 $ each way.

Toiletry ?

You can get an idea of toiletry costs at NTUC online or Redmart.

IWhat I mean by toiletries is: toothpaste, shampoo, soap,medicine, etc.
Thanks for your helpful suggestions. If I stay in a neighborhood(out of the center) don't they have local restaurants I can eat at for less than 15 dollars?

Out in the heartlands , coffee shop is very cheap, just add a bit on if you want to eat in an aircon coffee shop

In my opinion toiletries are expensive.

one can always cook. Rice is cheap, so is low quality meat, eggs and many many veggy products including tofu. Think a big pot of curry.

thanks to all who offered suggestions! I'll use S100/$70 US ) as a yardstick, and assume it includes only meals and transportation. I cook my own breakfasts and only eat a light lunch, so I hope I haven't underestimated.

I think you've over estimated... can easily do it under $50SGD as well.
