Cost Of Living - About Spain - SpainDirect4U

To give an indication of the cost of living in Spain compared to that of the UK, it is relevant to consider that for every 150 Euros of expenditure a week to live in the UK, and then it is likely to cost around 100 Euros per week to live in Spain.
There are naturally exceptions to this rule but for budgeting purposes, apply this formula to your expenses and you will not go far amiss.

One of biggest differences in cost is dining out; it can be cheaper to eat out than stay in! Most restaurants and cafes offer a menu of the day from as little as 6 Euros for three courses including a bottle of wine and bread. A top quality meal for two people including tips and VAT can be obtained for under 50 Euros ………. And that includes a good bottle of wine.
