One Day One Dollar: Snacks For Everyone

Hi, lovely people! 🙋🏼‍♀️

‎Wishing you all the best. 🌷

‎As of September 9, 2025, 6:50 pm, 1 US dollar equals approximately 56.71 Philippine pesos.

With that, you can buy everyday items or enjoy local food like fish balls, fresh fruits, or even local drinks.

‎Today's ASEAN Hive Community Challenge is about "One Day, One Dollar".

‎For 1 USD, what can you buy in your country?

‎This is a very simple challenge, but it will let you realize a lot of things.

‎This lovely afternoon, my hubby, our two kids, and I decided to visit the night market.

That's the place we often visit for our favorite afternoon snacks.

‎This time, inspired by the challenge posted by @ruffatotmeee yesterday, I thought, "Why not spend just a dollar on snacks for everyone".

So with the challenge in mind, we started picking our favorite treats.

‎We started with my son's beloved favorite, the Japanese cake.

We grabbed two pieces, each costing just 10 pesos ($0.18), one for Ryzen and one for Aiden.

‎Look at Ryzen's face as I handed him the cake, lol.

A happy kiddo!

‎Next, let's buy my hubby's go-to snack. It's roasted and salted peanuts.

A small pack of it will also cost you 10 pesos ($0.18).

‎This already satisfies my hubby.

‎How about my favorite snack?

‎It's a kwek-kwek. ☺️

I bought a few, each costing just 5 pesos ($0.08) plus my son's Ryzen craving, lumpia.

‎I also picked one for him.

‎All in all, the total came to only 15 pesos ($0.26).

‎Of course, no snack session is complete without a refreshing drink.

We decided to buy the fruity juice made from a mix of apples, bananas, grapes, and watermelon.

It has milk, making it a smooth tasty drink. 😋

‎It only costs 10 pesos ($0.18).

‎So because we don't have enough money to buy for two, my hubby and I just share. 😁

‎And that's how we completed the challenge.

‎We counted the remaining funds, and we were thrilled to see that we had 2 pesos ($0.03) left! 🥳

I was amazed when I realized just how far a single US dollar could stretch in feeding my family.

‎What might seem like a small amount of money to some can go a long way when spent wisely.

‎With careful planning, one dollar can satisfy everyone's cravings and favorites.

‎Until our next challenge...

‎Thanks for the visit! Have a lovely day. Buh-bye. 💗🌸

A full meal is a good choice. And it will make you feel fuller than those cheaper snacks. ☺️ Plus, you have a lot of freebies there, just like you posted before. 😁

You can buy a lot of things in your country with 1 usdt. However, the estate foods in the Philippines are inspired by the food that is hearty. 1 usdt is 56.71 pesos in the Philippines. This is a new experience for me. However, buying baby food for 15 pesos is really very affordable. I wish you success in today's contest.

Thank you. 1 USDT is not that big, but when we try the challenge, that's when I appreciate its value. It can feed our whole family. 😄
