Food prices are high everywhere, not only here. Nonetheless, we are thankful that breadfruit, ackee, mango, and avocado are in season now, kaah hungry.
As far in my opinion food is expensive everywhere, at least in Jamaica you have choices, you can grow what you eat. Why buy fruits and vegetables in a supermarket? Buying Jamaica brand save you a lot more.
Thanks for taking us along grocery shopping. Nice content. Groceries are very expensive all over the world. Yes, we have to shop around. This can save us a lot of money. Blessings to you and family.
Marie, thank you for sharing this video. They don't have to sell the vegetables so expensive. People are not buying them because they are overpriced and the sellers seem not to get the message. They prefer to have them spoiling. Let them keep it.
If you check out prices in Jamaica and the United States it's the same thing for example salt fish is $4 per lb in Florida and when I check the price of salt fish in Jamaica it's cheaper
I was just about to type the samething when I saw your comment. I do my shopping only when I receive the email or text message from the stores I shop, and I make sure to buy enough for a month or more. When oxtail is $6 and mutton $3+, I buy up a lot
The good thing about Jamaica is that most if not all can plant food in the back or side of the yard. Too many wait for people to send or wire money from abroad.
Thanks for sharing. Good prices here in Canada . Buying produce is not too expensive but everything else is very expensive. Encourage Jamaicans to plant what they eat so they can stop complaining about the price of produce.
Everywhere at this time everything is expensive. If u walk in to Cosco or BJ's u would come out with just a few stuff for $300.00.😅 and this in America, so nothing is cheap. We can't plant. Only summer time we try. And that's for only who owns property.
Cost of food has gone up in US also.In Ja.prices are astronomical.Difficult to eat healthy.Wouldn't it be more cost efficient to purchase a tin of cheese.
Lol miss Marie me and u ah the same mi nah buy it either loooooool.this serious. No man daylight robbery. That's why mi glad mi come from country cause mi nah go supermarket go buy certain things.
Lord! Well food price has gotten higher since Covid but you have lot of supermarket/grocery that will discount certain items every single week. Examples, this week it may be brown eggs, detergents, hot cereal, cold cereal, cooking oil, chicken legs, tureky legs, ice cream, etc etc. Oh yes. Then gasoline might be high last week, this week it, it has gotten lower this week. Depending on the state you live in. Veggies and fruits are reasonable. I can get a bag of Carrots for less than $3, and Broccolis less than $2.50. Lime for 25 cents each. But we pay taxes on lots of items except fruits, veggies, 100 percent juices. No tax on meat or gasoline.
some of those prices are not even real more expensive than the Uk. i would have to plant some of those things, day light robbery, where those prices come from. no way.
@ annmarielove3290 The purpose of the video is to inform, not to compare with any other country. Jamaicans earns Jamaican dollars for the most part. And believe it or not a large portion of our population not earning 44k for the month. Minimum wage is 15k weekly, 60k for the month. Imagine spending 44k on food only. Hence food is expensive
And at my age if all the food that we are consuming is poison, we all would have gone back to the dust a long time. Keep your negative energy to yourself, that is more poisoning than the foods we are all consuming. STEVE.
Why do you think we are being fooled? We are not living overseas so we have to talk about food prices here. People not earning enough in Jamaica to pay these prices for food

Why do we need to compare? The video is not about Jamaican prices vs any other country. It's about the prices and the affordability to us here

Maybe you should go and live overseas where you think things are cheaper. Cause I’m living overseas and U$280 for that amt of groceries is excellent.
@bundilee at no point did we say anywhere was cheaper 🤔
Lol miss Marie me and u ah the same mi nah buy it either loooooool.this serious. No man daylight robbery. That's why mi glad mi come from country cause mi nah go supermarket go buy certain things.

Thank you for watching
Imagine. The economy set ah way.

Shoppers Fair Supermarket
I researched and 1 US dollar it worth. 156.281 in Jamaica. Jamaica $ is equal to 0.00064 in USD. The price of food is still high
Thank you
The dollar is worth more there Jamaica but seems like it stuff it still overpriced and limited
wow i see they selling the same poison food in jamaica
Yep! And they're buying them.
And we are breathing in the poison everyday too without choice. Let the people buy their food in peace. Kmt
@@KeithPayne-i6e you are blessed
Walk good
And at my age if all the food that we are consuming is poison, we all would have gone back to the dust a long time. Keep your negative energy to yourself, that is more poisoning than the foods we are all consuming.
STEVE.
Do y’all have places like Sam’s club to get bulk items or CVS/walgreens to get deodorant etc
No, but we have Chinese wholesale where we get get items like toiletries a little cheaper than the supermarket
Why u dont go to the local and buy healthy produce
I do, was simply sharing the supermarket prices

Wow..something has to be done!! This is a shame!! Praying for better times.
Thank you for the support ❤️
That amount of money for that amount of groceries is cheap I.e. U$280. Don’t let anyone fool you guys. I’m living overseas & God knows it’s worst.
