I was wondering if you guys would be kind and tell me approximatelly the total cost of these items in your country, preferably converting the value to dollars, so I can have a common denominator. If possible taking into account the cheapest brand possible of each product:
5kg (11 pounds) white rice
2kg (4 pounds) black beans
2 liters of soy oil
250g (0.5 pounds) of cofee
1kg(2 pounds) cornflour
2kg(4 pounds) white sugar
1kg(2 pounds) salt
1 can of tomato extract
500g(1 pound) noodles
250g(0.5 pounds)margerine
4 rolls of toilet paper
2 body soap
1 toothpaste
500g(1 pound) washing powder
2 bars of soap
1 pkg. steel wool
1 match box
400g(0.5 pound) powder milk
Let me explain what it is: This is a basic version of what the government here says that is enough for a person to eat for a whole month. It costs around 100 dollars(about half of the minimum wage). So I was wondering how much it will cost in other countries. Please, this is not trolling, I just want to know.
Quoting: MaybeTrollingU So here in the usa you can buy almost all of this at a Dollar Tree. It's not always the cheapest to go but for some of your items it would be.
So with that in mind plus :
5kg (11 pounds) white rice - $8
2kg (4 pounds) black beans - $4
2 liters of soy oil - $4
250g (0.5 pounds) of cofee - $1
1kg(2 pounds) cornflour - $2
2kg(4 pounds) white sugar - $2
1kg(2 pounds) salt - $1
1 can of tomato extract - $1
500g(1 pound) noodles - $1
250g(0.5 pounds)margerine - $2
4 rolls of toilet paper - $1
2 body soap - $2
1 toothpaste - $1
500g(1 pound) washing powder - $2
2 bars of soap - $2
1 pkg. steel wool - $1
1 match box - $1
400g(0.5 pound) powder milk - $3
So for me I could reasonably expect to soend $40 if this were my list.
But who eats 2 lbs of salt a month?
