re: how much?

Depends. £4-500 sterling would be about average.

sd,

sounds like you will have all your lift passes etc paid for and with the Donkeywalloper advice of 4-500 squids you will have a ball.

Please note that they are cash points in Bansko should you run out

re: how much?

We manage on a couple of hundred but aren't big drinkers, just a few per night. In fact the fist year I managed on £60 although took a lot more i just didn't spend it lol

you'll have a great time i'm sure Very Happy

re: how much?

We were half board with lift pass and private lessons paid for up front last 2 seasons in Bansko, we spent 200 sterling each for a week of eating lunch on the mountain, drinking bottles of wine and Gin & Tonics, picked up a couple of fake TNF jackets and tipped our private board instructor 20 quid each, we didn't go clubbing just drinking in the evenings.

Bansko seems very reasonable to us. Booze
