Prices of Food are extremely high here in my country!!

Hi, I spend about £30 a week perhaps as much as £40 that's about 15-20 US Dollars. A litre of milk here is about 50p that's approximately ! US dollar. So our milk is the same price. Maybe your food cost is a little higher. all the best urban

I want to say that I pay around three dollars for a gallon of milk. For my boyfriend and I its about $100 a week but I cook a lot so I buy things I only use once like sugar, etc.

It is not just food, overall cost of living is rising for all the commodities no matter it is of daily use or a luxury item. What all we earn is all used up and no money is left for enjoyment.

It's nothing. In my country (Italy) the first day of this month there were an increase of prices of primary consumer goods. You should pay 1.50 euro for 1 litre of milk. So in US dollars, you should pay more than 2 dollars!! The milk is the nutrition of a child and this price is really high. A family of 4 people need 1 litre per day, so 15 dollars per week only for milk. And the salary is not so high.. the average is 1200 euro per month. There were increase also in the price of bread, gas and electricity. Step by step it will come a day when the most people in Italy will be poor.

I think that in most countries food is becoming quite expensive. I know just for me and my daughter we do spend over $200 every couple of weeks for food. I try to buy frugally to save money, but sometimes it can't be avoided.

I am well avare of this price thing in croatia. As I have told you I have lots of croatian friends (I speak croatian even thou I am macedonian) so I am absolutly shocked when we compare prices. The one friend that lives in Zagreb and me always do this price game where one finds a product and we look how much it is in the other country (in this case Croatia and australia) and 99% of the time it is more expencive in Croatia. For a family of 3 (me my husband, and my 4 year old son that lives on air because he does not eat much) we spend about $100-$150 a week. I get my milk in boxes and when it is on special for 99 cents (australian)

in india now a days prices increasing faster but still it is reasonable that a faamily can survive with 150 us$ for one month (only for food)

In my country Bangladesh, these days price very high of cosumer goods. According to income of people here is difficult to save money, I ltr. milk price $.70 here.
