**🍜 Affordable Eats** Street food is your best friend in Rangoon. A bowl of mohinga (rice noodle fish soup) costs around 2,000 kyat at most street stalls near Sule Pagoda. For a full meal at a local tea shop like Lucky Seven Tea Shop on 37th Street, expect to pay 3,000-5,000 kyat. **🚌 Getting Around Cheaply** Public buses cost just 300-500 kyat per ride, but routes can be confusing. The circular train from Yangon Central Station is a steal at 300 kyat for a 3-hour loop around the city. For short distances, use ride-hailing apps like Grab, which are cheaper than taxis. **🏨 Budget Accommodation** Dorm beds in hostels like Ostello Bello on Maha Bandoola Road start at $10 per night. Private rooms in guesthouses near Chinatown run $20-30. Book in advance during peak season (November-February) to secure the best rates. **🎫 Entrance Fees** Shwedagon Pagoda charges 10,000 kyat for foreigners, but you can visit lesser-known pagodas like Botataung Pagoda for 5,000 kyat. The National Museum costs 5,000 kyat and is free on weekends. Always carry small bills for entry fees. **🆓 Free Things to Do** Walk around Kandawgyi Lake and enjoy the views of Karaweik Palace without paying a cent. Visit the bustling Bogyoke Aung San Market (closed on Mondays) to browse without buying. The Yangon Heritage Walk offers free self-guided tours of colonial architecture. **💡 How Locals Save** Locals eat at tea shops for breakfast, where a set of tea and fried snacks costs under 1,000 kyat. They use shared taxis (called 'pick-up taxis') for long distances, splitting the fare. Avoid tourist areas for souvenirs; head to 19th Street in Chinatown for cheaper goods. **💰 Money-Saving Tips** Withdraw larger amounts from ATMs to minimize fees (KBZ Bank charges 5,000 kyat per transaction). Use the YBS bus card for discounted fares on public buses. Always negotiate prices at markets, but do so politely.
