    Barbados can be done on a budget if you’re prepared to live like a local. It would take some planning and speaking to locals to avoid tourist traps and being overcharged for beer (sorry you paid £2.50 for a single Banks!) but it can definitely be done! It just depends on the kind of experience a person is looking for; more luxury = more money, as with most places.

    I completely agree. Been here for almost 3 months and I’ve found that if you’re trying to buy the foods and brands i might back in Canada, or am trying to eat at fancy restaurants all the time, it can get pricey. But adapting to local lifestyle, it’s much more affordable than back home

    Im in Barbados right now on a budget, it definitely helps having family here. Ive gotten food, drinks, an apartment , and a car all for free. All i have to do is do the same while my family travels to the US. You can't pay me to take a ZR over here though

      100% as a Yankee who grew up in BIM(right to college), having a private home here makes costs SO much more cheaper. With my parents giving me duo citizenship, I can easily work/shop/schooling overseas so I can make living in BIM more affordable and comfortable.

    Irish bloke here. I lived and worked here for a few months and no, it's very hard to live cheaply. I had the perks of being given free accommodation and transport (while working) but me and my household divided the groceries each time we went. Every few weeks we would spend a few hundred, if not 1200 dollars per shop. I also remember getting a takeaway from a local vendor one night and it cost me almost 50 dollars

    • @jayjayn007
      @jayjayn007 4 месяца назад

      Go to the local markets, and buy groceries there. They might be surprised to see pale skin and some might be rude, but keep going back. That's what we did. You'll save tons.

    For anyone wondering, NO you *cannot* visit Barbados on a budget. You will have a *horrible* time. If you're used to having frosted flakes for breakfast, expect to pay DOUBLE for a box. The price of everything is either DOUBLE or HALF of what you're used to. The imported stuff that you're used to will be VERY expensive. If you're a Caribbean native and can adapt to "local lifestyle" then you'll pay about half of what you usually would. A litre of water will cost you about $6 Bajan ($3 USD, £2.35). A 2 liter of the local soda fruitee will be about $9.50 Bajan ($4.75 USD, £3.72). Mind you, if you aren't an island native you WILL be drinking *a lot* more. To be EXTREMELY safe, I'd suggest preparing as if you were going to travel to London, New York, California or any place with very high inflation. I can't stress enough it will NOT be cheap.

    • @adrianonline69
      @adrianonline69 9 месяцев назад

      So many bars have cheap beers 3 for $10 bdos dollars. Local meals are 20-30 dollars. Obviously hotel and high end restaurants prices are higher (LIKE ANYWHERE ELSE).

    • @adrianonline69
      @adrianonline69 9 месяцев назад +1

      Where are you buying that water. Massy has a litre of water for about 3 Also our tap water is very safe to drink

    • @adrianonline69
      @adrianonline69 9 месяцев назад +1

      Sweet drinks are 2 in the shop. 3 in any rum shop 4 and up at a fancy bar. Stop lying

    • @ddsh1618
      @ddsh1618 8 месяцев назад +1

      @adrianrichards I went to Massy Stores Super Centre Warrens Supermarket and then when I stayed in Oistins I went to the Dover Market. If you're Caribbean then the local stuff seems normal to you. It's a lot cheaper. The imported items are the issue. If you get a box of mango juice it will be cheap because it's made right in Barbados. If you wanted frosted flakes it'd be double the price you pay outside of the country because it's imported. A box of cereal is only about $2 USD. In Massys supermarket in August it was about $7-$8 BBD. That's about $3.50-$4 USD.

    Anywhere in the world can be done on a budget - the locals that work there and provide services for said tourists do it. You just have to live like a local - I.e eat and drink where the locals go - or better yet cook or don’t drink anything but water.
