If any of the coffeeshops tried charging me for tap water after I've just brought at least a gram of weed and a coffee I'd of thrown it over them.

560 Euros last trip, 2 nights, 3 nearly full days and my hotel was around E60 coz i did not get the room i booked. Tram Pass (It was cold), Burger Bar, Wok to go and the rest was CSs and weed.

Agreed. This is inexcusable. Derry and Arjan are making money hand over fist gouging their customers and yet they have the temerity to charge for tap water? Makes me sick.

No place should charge for tap water period. I thought that's part of the whole green thing not using bottled water.

I'd say 80-100 Euro, minimum, per day. That's how much I spent last time, and I'm a heavy smoker, drinker and eater.

I can easily spend any ammount of money i take with me. But i usually try and allocate €100 per full day i am there. Sometimes i spend more in a day and others i spend less but this is a pretty good ammount to budget on without having to count the money in the hotel every evening.

i agree after flights and accommodation you want approx €100 a day to spend. I could easily spend more than that!! But €80 - €100 is what I end up spending in an average day.....

I usually try go for £100 a day so that could be anywhere between €100-€140 i also take extra money to try buy myself something , be it clothes , trainers and that would usually be £100-£200 ! I am planning on taking about £800 for 420 ! 19th-23rd April €170 for my apartment €680 / between 4 ! The rest for a real good time , and i get paid when im there although im only planning on taking out roughly £100 !

headed back for 10 days in May. After transportation and lodging, I figure 120 Euro per day between food and smoke per day for the Mrs. and I. We will be able to probably spend less than this by cooking most of our meals, but we shall see. We went through about the same per day last March.

oh forgot i had 110 sq metere apt for the 10 nights and it was 750 eure, this place was freaking big, and the owner is real cool (smoker friendly) htere is a little out door patio basically in the middle of the apt. very cool got it on Vrbo if any one is interested, its just off the Prinsengracht around the corner from an A.H. and the C/S spirit is right around the corne(almost) , the 750 wasnt included in my spending money
