April Challenge

According to our minister, one of them mentioned that we are able to survive with S$1000 a month. As I have vowed for kopitiam and foodcourt month for April. It will be interesting to see whether $1000 is really enough for a single like me :)

Firstly, I need to deduct away all the fixed expenses for the month.
Insurance $120
Housing allowance $200
Utility bills $80
Which means that I left with $600, or $150 for a week.
Week 1 (1-7April)
Daily breakfast $2.50 X 5days = $12.50 + $6( Sunday Mac) = $18.50
Lunch - mon $4.80 ,tue $8, we'd $7, thurs $5.90, fri $12, sat $7, sun $5 = $50
Dinner - mon (free), tue $7, fri $6, sat $6 = $19
Total meals = $87.50
Grocery $18
Movie $9.50
Misc (bubble tea, tea breaks,bla bla) $20
Transport $30.25
Total cost for week $165.25

Looks like I have burst the budget for week 1. Gonna try harder this week.
