Hey Kayla, welcome to Hawaii! I'm so glad I came across your video! I hope you enjoy your time on the Big Island! I live on the island of Maui and so I feel ya when it comes to the prices. hahaha 😂 We don't ever get used to it, we just find ways to have fun and laugh about it all... I look forward to your new videos while living here in Hawai'i nei!
Did you ship anything there & did your company pay for your move? I will be moving there soon (solo) and was curious about any companies you recommend for shipping.
@@kayla_bowler Groceries will never get cheaper, as have been here 5 years, so I try to buy on sale (even that's $$). Make your best, as the beauty of the island makes up for it. I grow some edibles so that helps.
Aww! I so appreciate that, I know you know that struggle of all the thought and effort we put in a video hoping people enjoy. So, this has definitely made my day🥹
It is worth it to go to costco and get meat, and then get your fresh stuff from other stores life Safeway. Also coupon is the best way to save at Safeway. That is how we managed.
Welcome to Hawaii! Hope your first three months have been a blast. I live in Hilo and looking for physical therapist. What clinic are you associated with. If okay with telling me you cand send a personal message. If not that is okay. Have a wonderful day! 🌸😁🌴

Since I was only there for 4 months I just took 2 suitcases and used furnished finder for fully furnished housing
Nice spacious new home; I am in the BI too, hope you will acclimate and enjoy yourself to nature and lush surroundings.
Thank you! 🫶🏽Going on my 4th month here and I definitely feel like I’m acclimating more but groceries are still quite expensive 😅

your grocery haul...welcome to Hawaii, sis.
Tha pressha is getting worsa 🥵
Do you think expenses wise it was a huge jump from MD?
oh YES a huge difference! Groceries are much more expensive and I have a rental car here, but short term housing was about the same cost
I live on Maui and yes it’s expensive. I do most of my grocery shopping at Target or Walmart.
Yes I learned very fast that safeway and KTA were big no nos 😂, Target and Walmart have been my go tos!

wow this is so helpful, I live on Hillo side. So, we do have to drive about an hour to get to the costco but this is good to know . Thank you!
Groceries are normal prices all over the USA not just Hawaii.
Pop awf then

Thank you !!😊 The clinic I worked at was actually for little ones 18 and under, but I have heard good things about big island PT !
Hey, idk if you're on Oahu, but I moved to Hawaii 7 weeks ago. We should hang out sometime if you need a friend! I'm 23 almost 24.
Oh wow that’s amazing, hope you’re loving it! I’m actually on big island :/
Nice piece, keep it up. You need Costco membership asap. goog luck
Right! If only we had one 😅
Recycle and get your money back from the bottles and cans it is worth it.
wow...it's so expensive. i really want to move there but i guess im too broke (˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥ )
Haha yea I won’t lie it’s a pretty penny, but it’s worth a temporary extended stay. Such a beautiful island 😍
