Prices are almost 1/2 higher than on the continent, so I payed a lot more for my food than at home. We mostly went to the Lidl down Falls Road. It takes you half an hour on foot but you can take the black taxi (1 pound for a single journey, but even then it's cheaper than going to the Spar). Going for a drink is quite expensive.
When you buy a telephone card from "Back the Bid" you'll have the cheapest card to phone to Belgium (other cards and telephoning other countries seems to be more expensive).
The rent in Bostock House is less than what I paid for my dig in Gent, but it was a lot smaller as well.
As for the night life: if you like to go out a lot and drink, than you'll need quite some extra money. In most pubs you can ask for a glass of tapwater, which is free of charge. Taxis and buses are rather expensive as well.
But don't worry: if you don't have a lot to spend, you won't get into trouble if you spend your money thoughtfully and economically.

Belfast city is full of cash dispensers, so once you're in town you'll have no trouble getting money. But it can be cheaper opening a bank account since taking money from your home bank can be very expensive. At the college they'll inform you on opening this account. The computer-lab (internet available) is open untill 9 in the evening and on Saturdays from 9am untill 1 pm. This is really a very good service. It's only closed on Sundays.
In Bostock House you'll find the appliances and furniture you need, though you sometimes have to organise a bit of a search or share with other floors.
There's a telephone on the ground floor of Bostock and one in St. Mary's, opposite the student restaurant.
Some Erasmus-students worked during their stay. Some went to a building to arrange a job for them ("Jobs &..." something else, I forgot the name, it's close to the new swimming pool up Falls Road.)
Others just went to the bars and asked for a job I think. But as I said, if your turn your penny twice before you spend it, you won't have expenses a lot higher than at home.

because some things are more expensive (food)and others you use a lot more than at home: phonecalls to your parents and friends, you go out more and it is more expensive and you want to see the country so you travel a lot, something you normally don't do so often in your own country.

Life standard is higher, when you have the chance to go to a country like northern ireland it would be a waste not to fly out and explore the whole island

The food is abnormally expensive. It's like 2 or 3 times as expensive as back in the Netherlands.

Again, the food is awfully expensive. Try to find some 'cheap' supermarkets like LIDL.

You'd better take quite a bit of cash out of a dispenser.

Life is more expensive in general, you also do more things than normally at home (you go out more, you travel more, ...)
