If you plan to spend that amount of money.. it can be done... but I would recommend to travel VERY lightly.. with no expensive item that would be extremely bothersome if they were stolen..... then you could stay at hostels.. cheap low budget hotels.. and eat away from the champs elsees... eating Kabob sandwiches and chinese foods etc... I am here now for work, and will be here for another year.. but YES it can be done.

good luck. paris sucks the life out of you and all money you have so even if you dont spent 100$ getting there you can probably expect to spend alot more to just live from what i herd.

Get the Rick Steves book "Europe on $20 a day" or "Europe through the backdoor". They really help you save money.

Those $20 / day books are very, very old!
One night in a hostel costs more than that alone!
Don't go to Paris if you don't have some money to spend.
(But to save some money you can go on one of the free museum days - the crowds are crazy though.)

Here's how: Buy a round trip ticket to Paris. When you arrive, go through customs and go directly to the restaurant in the airport. Eat a meal. Then, get back on the plane and fly home. You should be able to do that for just under $1000.

I stayed in Paris, in May this year - in a hostel AUBERGE INTERNATIONAL (with another two friends of mine): 60 EURO/ night - the room had separate shower and toilet.
Food - from FRANPRIX shops: mineral water: 0.35 EURO (1.5 liter), salad (1.7 EURO); chocolate (1.35 EURO) - acceptable, no?
At Mc Donald's - Royal Bacon - 1.95 EURO;
Transport: buy CARTE ORANGE (3 days - 18.25 EURO) - you can travel by bus, metro, RER=train) anywhere you want.
Such an ORANGE CARD (a travel pass) can be bought even for ONE day...max. is 5!
If you have more questions about Paris, please feel free to ask me!
Have a nice trip!

In Paris you cannot help yourself from shopping... and a leather designer bag costs around 1000$... So, keep away from shops...
