Well it depends on d squad Dat are in d house. U can't expect a pot of soup to last in a family of five grown up guys and one girl..

Would've comfortably answered your questions if it were to be two years ago but with the current change in town now, hmmmm... I will have to check the current exchange rate before I can give a figure which you know is bound to change tomorrow due to scarcity of forex.

Several factors are currently affecting"soup money"

New generation ladies who don't want to learn how to manage in times like this

All the numerous babes on Papa Mgbeke's payroll

Buhari's regime

And the increased love for swallow generated from wanting to eat something that can suffice for three square meal in the absence of money

hmmmmm, na wa o! cooking for myself alone, 1,500 never do me buy food stuffs for market, not to talk of using it to cook for my husband and children! haba! OP fear God naaw! oya u enter market see how things be for there

Specify, op. Okro, egusi, vegetable, bean, banga or plain soup? With meat ot without? How many litres?

So like how much do you normally use to make a pot of soup since 1500 naira seems to be too small f you..

Alot of factors are put into consideration before such a question can be answered like the kind of soup, the type of animal protein you'd love to use, the number of people to consume it, your location too matters

Haba 1500 is small oh, u just hv to add extra money for pant&bra, sandals, cream etc befor d soup money we reach. Women and ladies with the wahala for money

Even the number of meat/fish you like to eat per meal. Some men will get annoyed when you give them one piece of meat but bring money nah, they will give you 1000....lol

Location is key too. 100 Naira okra for a pot of soup in Enugu may be enough but not for same pot of soup for someone in Port Harcourt.

[quote author=PinketteDawn post=44206198][/quote] Omoh fish replace fish..ook...I go return the chingum buy onion #10

Any amount can cook soup depending on what you call soup. 1500 soup will certainly look the part, a decent soup should be from 2000.

No amount can be enough and any amount can be enough. Meaning it all depends on the kind & type of woman you have as a Wife to some extent.

It depends on the type of soup you want to cook, if you are cooking the one you want to manage for 2days I think 1500 will be enough but using 1500 to cook one big family size abeg e no reach at all even for someone living alone I don't think such amount of money will be enough considering the fact that things are so expensive in market now.

Now that we're courting whenever he calls me to come prepare a meal for him the least amount he drops is 3k and sometimes I manage that cos he likes much chewable in his meal but a moment we become one I'll manage 5k.

Aya manage 2hun?

Bros do i need to say it? enter market naaw! It's simple, just enter market make u go see werrin dey happen for there, after all guys too go to markets n cook as well, i have brothers who cooks as well, is like u don't know how to cook that's why u are sounding this way, go to market and see how many things u can buy with just 1,500

Hahahahaha... am one bachelor that can joke with anything but not with my belly.. Though i won't say i'm a trained chef but I learnt a lot from my beautiful mum.. Well, Many factors like location, size, quantity of meat and type of soup one wants to cook will definitely affect the price either by taking the price up or down.. As a single guy, 1500 can comfortably make a pot of soup for me that will last for a whole month...

Holyfield1:
Please I just wanna know cox from my little experience, I realised some married women do complain about the amount their husby give them for soup, saying they have to add more to it and all that.Imagine a woman collecting 1,500 every 3 days and still complaining that the money isn't enough.A family of 4

I use 2k to cook delicious rich soup for I,my dad and my brother and its enough for us for at least 5days.
