http://egyptsearch.blogspot.com/2007/05/cost-of-living-in-egypt.html

here is some ideas I got today

-to save some money you should not rent Heliopolis, Zamalek , Mohandiseen , Garden City ...etc , try to rent in areas like Hadayek El Koba, Zayton, Helwan, Abbasseya or Amranya @ Giza

- Use local transportation , unless you can afford to have a car , then use one that is 1300 CC and that can work with fuel 82

-Shop for food at traditional vegetables markets and groceray shops, Other huge supermarkets sell everything with a higher price to cover their operational expenses
