Food prizes: I buy fruit and veggies on a local market, bulk like rice, sugar, detergent, oil and other stuff at the so called Muassasah, and others at a supermarket nearby. In some cases special groceries at the Carrefour.
For five persons I spend around 300-350 dinar a month

Forgot to mention the gas bottles!!!

You buy once the bottle for 30 dinar and then you can change it every time.
Cost of change is 8 dinar.
Gas for cooking takes about 2-3 months before the bottle is empty. If I use it for the heater and the winter is soft then it takes 10 days. When its cold then I have to change it every week.
