💰 Survive a Day in Singapore with Just 10 SGD! Can You Do It?!
In Singapore, one of the world’s most expensive countries, can you survive for 24 hours with just 10 SGD?
Here’s a challenge shared by a netizen on how to make the most of 10 SGD:
🍞 8:00 AM | Kaya Warrior Strikes: 2 SGD
For 2 SGD, two slices of crispy kaya toast are secured. The secret? Bring your own thermos to fill with free hot water.
🥬 12:00 PM | Hawker Center Economics in Action: 3SGD
At the mixed rice stall in the hawker center, two vegetables and rice for 3 SGD. Focus on high-water-content ingredients like winter melon and cabbage, and leverage free soup to fill up.
📚 3:00 PM | Air Conditioning Capitalization: 0 SGD
Head to the National Library to enjoy the "three free essentials": air conditioning, WiFi, and charging outlets.
🍜 7:00 PM | Noodle Showdown: 3.5 SGD vs. 5 SGD
Fish ball noodles (3.5 SGD) and economic fried rice noodles (5 SGD) engage in a price battle. The solution is to employ a dynamic balance strategy—eat noodles on odd days and rice noodles on even days, using time to save money and meet the budget.
💰 Hardcore Player Bonus
An extreme saver shares their survival plan: a 3.5 SGD large bread plus free water dispenser = a 24-hour survival meal. But the opposing view is just as loud: "Going out in Singapore without 50 SGD is like going into battle without armor!"

🌟🌟🌟Even though Singapore is one of the most expensive cities in South East Asia, it is definitely possible to survive with just SGD 10 a day for food. It is a good exercise in being mindful on how we spend our money and also makes us appreciate how lucky we are to live in Singapore.
The best way to survive on just SGD 10 is to cook at home . I believe in having a Balanced Diet of Protein, Carbohydrates and Fibre.
For breakfast I would have a boiled egg and toast followed by a serve of banana and milk. I would cook Indomie with some fishballs with some cabbage and tofu. For dinner I would have some home cooked spaghetti Bolognese with some minced beef and tomato based sauce plus a small serve of iceberg lettuce. I will complete the meal with an apple for dessert.
Cooking at home is more nutritious and save lots of money. On a working week day , I sometimes pack my left over home cooked meals for work . I drink lots of water throughout the day which is my favourite way of hydration.
Surviving with just SGD 10 a day is not a difficult task if we want to do so with some advanced meal planning and prudent shopping.

💸🇸🇬🙏🌴🔥 10 Bucks, One Kiwi, and a Singapore Survival Sia! 🔥🌴🚀

If I landed in dazzling Singapore with a measly 10 SGD, practically pocket lint in this ex lah pricey paradise, I’d unleash my inner Kiwi cheapskate and turn it into a bloody triumph, sia! 🌴
First, pre-departure 🛫🇸🇬, I’d slide into Space Rocket or koolgal’s DMs with a suave, “How about a charming Kiwi crashing your pad lah, armed with a sheep-shaped trinket from NZ, eh?” 🌟 No point splashing out on a hotel when I’ve got charisma, a souvenir, and a bit of cheek sia.
With crash space sorted, I’d kick off at 8:00 AM, snagging kaya toast for 2 SGD, rocking up with my thermos like a thrift-store James Bond, sipping free hot water with a sly grin, so shiok lah. 🍞☕
By noon, I’d hit the hawker centre, masterminding a 3 SGD veggie-rice steal, cabbage, winter melon, you watery legends, while smashing free soup like it’s a gourmet elixir, damn chio lah. 🥬🍲
At 3:00 PM, I’d saunter into the National Library, soaking up free AC, WiFi, juice for my phone, maybe winking at a book to look a bit flash, siao lah, so good! 📚❄️
Come 6:00 PM, it’s fish ball noodle time for 3.5 SGD, odd days, odd vibes, leaving me 1.5 SGD to strut into tomorrow like a boss lah. 🍜💸
Survive 24 hours? Mate, I’d ace it sia, Singapore would be begging for an encore, no worries lah, so shiok! 🇸🇬
@koolgal @SPACE ROCKET
$ 3.00. mixed vegetable $ 2 n rice $ 1.50. total dinner $9.00. total 3 full meal for 4pax $21.9. each pax only $ 5.475
First, I’d head to FairPrice and grab a whole roasted chicken for just 6 SGD. That’s a full protein-packed meal that can last two to three meals if rationed wisely. Pairing it with a loaf of bread (2 SGD) gives me some carbs to stay full throughout the day. Roasted chicken and bread?
With 2 SGD left, I’d treat myself to a big bottle of Coke, because let’s be honest, surviving on water alone is a bit too hardcore. This way, I’ve got a full stomach and something refreshing to sip on throughout the day.
For the rest of the challenge, I’d chill in air-conditioned spaces for free—places like the library or malls offer free WiFi and comfortable seats. If I really needed variety, I could swap the bread for instant noodles or rice, but the roast chicken strategy guarantees maximum satisfaction.

$10 a day is not possible for food and basic transport + lodging. Unless you tell me you want to live in the park, beach or Changi Airport, all of which are illegal.
Breakfast ($2.50): Start with kaya toast and coffee at a hawker center.
Transport ($1.50): Walk more and take just one MRT or bus ride.
Lunch ($3.00): Grab chicken rice or economy rice.
Free Activities ($0): Explore Marina Bay, Gardens by the Bay, or Chinatown.
Dinner ($3.00): Enjoy a bowl of lor mee or porridge at a hawker stall.
It’s a challenge, but with careful planning, you can stretch every dollar. Would you try it?
2nd meal, eat food court rice, tofu and cabbage. $4.
Still have $4 left for in between black coffee at food court.
Suggestion to camp in library is a fantastic idea.
骑自行车上班–$0

💸🇸🇬🙏·🌴·🔥10美元、一個新西蘭元和一個Singapore Survival Sia！🔥🌴🚀

如果我帶着區區10新幣來到令人眼花繚亂的新加坡，在這個昂貴的天堂裏幾乎是口袋裏的棉絨，我會釋放我內心的新西蘭小氣鬼，把它變成一場血腥的勝利，sia！🌴
首先，在出發前，我會滑入太空火箭或koolgal的DMs，溫和地說：“一個迷人的新西蘭人帶着一個來自新西蘭的羊形小飾品撞上你的墊子怎麼樣？”🌟，當我有魅力、紀念品和一點厚臉皮時，沒有必要在酒店上揮霍。
整理好應急空間後，我會在早上8點出發，花2新元買到卡亞吐司，像舊貨店的詹姆斯·邦德一樣拿着我的熱水瓶搖晃，帶着狡猾的笑容啜飲免費的熱水，所以shiok lah。🍞☕
到了中午，我已經去了小販中心，策劃了一個3新幣的蔬菜——米飯偷，捲心菜，冬瓜，你們這些多汁的傳奇人物，同時砸碎免費湯，就像它是一種美食仙丹一樣，該死的chio lah。🍲
下午3點，我會漫步走進國家圖書館，享受免費的空調、無線網絡、手機果汁，也許會對着一本書眨眼，看起來有點閃光，小拉，太好了！📚·❄️
到了下午6點，3.5新幣的魚丸面時間，奇怪的日子，奇怪的氛圍，留給我1.5新幣像老闆一樣昂首闊步地走向明天。🍜💸
存活24小時？夥計，我會贏，新加坡會乞求安可，別擔心，所以shiok！🇸🇬
