Set-up costs

So how much do you think it costs to set yourself up in Berlin? Well, I have no idea either, so let's let this run and see how it adds up. Clearly some people are more frugal than others, and there are those jammy sods who always get given stuff for free or who are amazing bargain hunters. I'm neither of those two things, and although I shop around, it's generally just high street stores for ease. The more adventurous and savvy might be able to get cheaper. 

19.99      quilt from Ikea
5.98       2 x small desk lamps
12.00     frying pan
34.21     various other kitchen bits'n'bobs
10.00     SIM card inc. 10 euro credit (callmobile.de)
140.00   Temporary accommodation whilst looking for somewhere permanent (2o per night)


Total so far: 222.18
