Elementary, I did not have any coz my grandma was the school's principal so we did sign chits at the school canteen ;DHigh school, first and second I got plenty, my dad was still good back then-he gave me about P200 for my weekly allowance, that was in the 70's :PI dont pay for my transportation coz he always brought me to school in his army service jeep and picked me up on his way home ;D

i remember when i was in grade 2 i think, life was quite hard by then.  My allowance was 50 cents plus 20 cents jeepney fare.  There was one time, i'm on my way to school, i was holding on my right palm my allowance that was 50 cents, and on the left palm was our fare with my brother 20 cents.  When i was about to disembark from the jeepney i gave the fare to the driver, i forgot if it was the right or left palm. I was so close to being late..so i run and run till i was inside the classrom.  When i was able to catch my breathe, i checked my money and found out i gave out my 50 cents to the driver.  Oh i cried so hard..how can i buy ice candy now??? ice candy at that time was 30 cents and nutri bun is 20 cents...jeeze...it seems like the world fell in on me.  How can a grade two pupil suffered so much. ohhhh foods...

In high school...20 to 30 pesos i guess or lesser depending on the availability on my parents purse.

In college...50 pesos the most or sometimes..just enough for fare.. i dont make a fuss about my allowance...our life was quite difficult by then.  I'm just so thankful..we survived. PRAISE THE LORD!
