1. Average price of groceries for one person I would say would be between 200-400 per week depending on what your tastes are.

2. The price of a pint of lager is 30AED in Barasti and in Saluna it was 40AED for a bottle of Sol. A short and mixer (Bacardi & Coke) is same price as a pint. From that you can work out how much you drink and thus how much your average night out is.

3. If you work in Deira I would look at finding a place in Bur Dubai rather than having to trek all the way from JBR/Marina. It will be much cheaper too.
