Philippines

Last 2008 a fellow mylotter posted the same discussion. But for the sake of updating the data, I would like to ask the question again. Maybe this will show us how our currencies have inflated over the years. Also it would be fun to do some math from time to time right? Here in country it would be P41 (philippine peso). Another thing how fast can I drink a 1.5 liter of coke? Just give me two hours and you might just see it all gone.

Hi, abitcurious. It can cost between $1.00-$1.79 here in the United States. The highest that it could also go up to would be, $2.50. It also depends on where you purchase it from too that makes a difference.

$2.50? wow that really costs a lot if you convert that in our currency. Coke in can will cost a lot here if you buy it in a convenience store.

As far as attempting to drink a bottle of coke is concerned i rule it out at my age.A glass is sufficient for me.A 1.5 liter coke or Pepsi costs around Rs50/-.That is around 1.1U.S.$.I bought a 2liter bottle of Pepsi and it cost me Rs55/-that is around 1.2 U.S.$.Well my child and his friend made the contents of the bottle disappear before i could realise it.

are you sure we're not neighbors? I might be your child's friend. But Philippines is too far away from India. I forgot, P41 is $.92. Thanks for converting yours.

YEp I'll send you a virtual glass of it... There... It's really hot and humid here so I guess Coke and Pepsi are raking in money big time.

In my country it costs around Rp. 10.000 or US$ 1 and it will last about one or two days. We prefer buying juice to coke because it tastes better. Yes, it's more expensive, around US $ 1,89 for 1 liter of juice. When it come to juice, it will only last 3 or 4 hours

Yes I agree. Juice is better. But here in our country that costs double so we end up with sodas instead.

Really the most expensive? We have local sodas here that sell better than coke. But coke has a deep pocket for publicity funds so they still rake in more than the local sodas.

Not quite since the average daily wage is $8.43. you earn a bit more than a bottle of 1.5 coke. How much does 1.5 coke cost in your country?
