how much spending money would i need for a 2 week hol in limassol? i am quite a big spender and money seems to burn a hole in my pockety! take into consideration i will always be eating out!

Take £2m, you won't burn a hole in that in 2 weeks. lol

Work out how much you are likely to spend on one meal then times it by 14. Do that for your breakfast, lunch and dinner. For drinks, think of how much one of your favourite drinks would cost, how many you are likely to drink in one night and times it by 14. Souvenirs - are you likely to buy some? What sort of things do you normally bring home with you? How much do they cost? Post cards, excursions, entrance fees etc. Then total it all up. Take some extra for those unforeseen purchases and a credit card for emergencies......

I would work on lunch being about £5-10, dinner £10-15. You said you are a big stepnder, so maybe the latter would be best to budget for. That's £350 for those meals. A bottle of wine would be around £5-10, if you had a bottle of wine between two each evening, that would work out at about £120. Beers at £2 eahc, five a night = £140. £200 on souvenirs. 2 bottles of water a day = £20. That's a total of £650 - anyhting else you think you might spend on? Is your breakfast included? Do you take excursions, boat trips etc? Go to nightclubs?

LOL Caroline,

Just make sure you take your credit card with you, just in case.....

You can make it as cheap or expensive as you like here in Limassol. To keep it cheap, eat local dishes or to make it expensive eat in European/English style restaurants. And - if you want to keep it really cheap - avoid the jewellers shops completely! There are enough sparklers in them to blot out the stars in the sky :-D
