This may be a daft question as it is different for everyone but could anyone give me an idea how much spending money to bring? We are a family of four (2 kids ages 8 and 11 and then big one of 41 - yes you guessed it that's hubby!) and of course me. We are self catering but always eat out. This will be our first time to Turkey (31st July for 14 days) and after all the lovely welcomes I received yesterday from forum members and all the info I have gleaned already feel like that I know Calis already.

For the last five years we have been away where the euro has been the currency and noticed that each year we needed that bit more. Any advice you could give would be appreciated!

On a separate note and I promise not sycophantically - Scunner is a legend! Love the dry wit!:P

Legend or not you've posted this in the wrong section and it is part of my duties to chastise you

I will move it for you. As for spending money I'll leave that for someone else, I haven't been on holiday to Calis for 5 years now.

Oops! Sorry! Anyways nothing like a bit of morning chastisement!

Can't help I'm afraid Barbara as it's only Mrs H and myself.

I have noticed that price are creeping up and I reckon I may have to take £30 quid this year.

Thanks Highlander! I wish it could only be £30. By the way love the name. One of my favourite films and I fell in love with the name Conor and vowed that if I have had a son I would call him that and I did!

take as much as you can - bring some back if you want/must or set your daily budget according to the prices on arrival.

Do you think that answers the question GB?

Babcc you haven't said what you're normal budget is but i would think a budget of £150 a day should be more than adequate.Last year when staying at a hotel 2 adults and a two year old all meals out we spent about £800 for two weeks.

Double that if you plan on eating at dalaman airport:D

Is this the mathematician section?

£150 x 14 = £2100
