the fruit sounds about the same get two bottles of decent beer for a dollar

you might pay 10 bucks us for the very very best steak a kilo. (2.2 pounds) the foods reasonably priced. potatos are between 1 and 2 dollars a kilo chick is about 3 dollars a kilo. we eat a lot of meat and some fish each week. for 160 bucks we get about 12 bags or more of shopping. that doesn't include soft drinks or anything except food.

rice is a buck a kilo for the decent stuff. remember the average wage here is really low. between 8 and 12 thousand pesos a month. about 150 us dollars to 200

my partner earns about 2200 dollars a month and me around about the same. (after tax.) not a lot but here we do well on it.
