Question

I got a chance to work at Alkhobar-KSA for 2000 SR,I need to know price list for all Living Items Like bread , drinking water & others for a normal life style , how does it cost ?

Answer 1

You know,, depends on your quality of life and standard of living.

I dont know what country of origin you are from..

The unskilled laborers in this country will probably think 2000SR a month is gold..

but for the average Saudi, this is pocket change.. not enough for anything..

Answer 2

If they pay completely for your housing and transport, 2000 Riyals a month might just get you by if you are by yourself and without family.

You would have to find out your housing for the year because cheap places are about 17,000 a year, you can probably find a place in Dammam for maybe 13,000 a year but that most likely is not a good area.

I know al-khobar, it's a very nice area so you can expect some more expenses.

Overall food is cheap, you probably will need a car since going anywhere in al khobar by taxi is minimum 10 Riyals.

2000 Riyals a month is really not that much, but it depends on the job you are doing.

Answer 3

In Khobar, you can get drinking water for free.  If you buy a big bottle of water, it costs 7 riyals.  The tap water is so salty, and you can't use it for drinking or cooking.

Bread - 1 riyal for arabic pita bread.  3-4 riyals for sandwich bread/toast.

You can live on 2000 riyals a month if it's just you and you don't waste your money.

2000 riyals a month isn't enough to sponsor your family though...I think the requirement is 3000 riyals and it's based on your job.

Answer 4

......you'll survive if you have free accommodation and free transport from and to office and accommodation with that salary.....if you're consuming only bread and water for your meals you can even save half of that amount in a months time.....good luck and welcome to Al Khobar.....you're from Egypt right?

Answer 5

Well, as Mintee said. It depends on the life style.

You may find an appartment for 15k/year and you may find something for 5k/year. It depends on the quality.

For food, you may also find some small resturants that you can eat with only 5 riyals!! or you may find something else that will cost you 55 riyals. It depends again on the quality.

2000 per month, you can servive and save with this amount. But you have to know how to live with it.
