| Hi Jadeyloo,
It depends on what part of alcudia you are staying at if you are staying at the old town part the cheapest shop is colber they also do excursions and are very reasonable. There are also nice cafe's around to eat. If I can help further don't hesitate to ask.

vodka and spirits are very big measures though so be careful!

| Hi, we've just returned from the Siesta yestreday. I'd say Alcudia isn't much cheaper than the UK, in fact if you are buying british goods from the supermarket they are a lot dearer! We are a family of 2ad 2kids and took nearly £700 and spent it all - however did buy two ffotball kits and a go on the go kartts at the bellevue hotel @ 20 euros each.
Local drinks are cheaper ie lager 2.2e a pint or John Smiths @ 3E. Chicken nuggets & chips about 4E for kids, 1/2 roast chick & chips/salad 7.5k
We use the Colbra supermarket , a couple of hundred yards down the main road from Siesta on the left, it's much cheaper than the one under the siesta.
excursions are quite expensive as well, we went to Pirates Show (Which is brilliant!!) but cost about £150.00 for the 4 of us
taxi to old town(market) about 5-6E each way
Take plenti of Mozzie stuff - as we all got bitten quite badly
Need to know anymore- let us know!
