    pointless question if you don't say what it has to be spent on.

    Easy, €1.42 per day for 13 days and €1.54 on the last day.

    Tbh, I hardly expected to get a proper answer... was just a kinda random question, to help me pass the day, that I thought some people might be helpfulish about. :)

    gamble it...you cant live off 20 and think of what you could buy if you win!

    Kingsize Box of Cereal, Milk 2l No Name Brand, Noodles, Rice, Pasta your only man.
    Go to lidil and buy the dirt cheap stuff, you might even have enough left over to buy a cheap bottle of beer. Cereal for breakfast and tea, any of the food staples above for dinner. I hope for your own sake you dont smoke! When i worked in the back i regularly had students in to queue up for an hour to take out their last €3 to buy a 10 box of fags, poor things.

    Failing that you could go and back a rank outsider in the 3.15pm at Clonmel and hope for the best

    Errrr, but what does the cash have to be spent on? drink? food? transport? sex?

    You see what I mean?

    If it's food then it's gonna be a lot of rice I'd say :) (get a box of stock cubs to add some taste).

    there must be a balanced diet calculator out there somewhere with the costs included. When I was a student and things were tight, I always bought a huge block of cheap cheese, cheap rice, cans of different beans and frozen veggies.

    Buy 100 chomp bars and mould them all into a large choco-caramel sphere. Play football with sphere to pass time and then consume said chomp sphere

    Make a few big pots of spag bol - throw loads of veggies and tins of tomatoes into it which are dirt cheap, and go easy on the mince!

    U should have enuf left for a few 2 litre bottles of cider...
