    I don't think this is just a Jamaican thing.I know you're saying Jamaica because you're Jamaican.Trust me that's a Caribbean thing.But what we as immigrants must take accountability for is the message we be sending those people back home.Alot of us try too hard to impress whenever we go on the media and when we go back home.Alot of us lie when we go back home to the people there.Many are ungrateful same way but we too cause that on ourselves.

    Hi Mr 416to 876 It's still worth it to send to the Country areas because Food is a little more expensive in the Country. Kingstoneans can do without barrels. If you buy the food when there's weekly sales. Also buy what you can afford not what family demand. Then it wouldn't cost so much . Good luck ! ❤🙏🇯🇲🇨🇦🦅

    I think there is still value in it, depending. For instance with barrels you can send preferred items of QUALITY merchandise and sidestep the predatory merchant class (Chinese etc) that dominates this space in JA. As a result, I welcome the impractical method of shipping barrels for all my JA needs - personal and gifts. The only thing I buy in Jamaica is food, weed, and ...

    I am presently packing barrels but I am reconsidering because when I went to Jamaica everything is there its just that's its expensive and by time you pay for the barrels shipping and all the different charges plus transport it probably comes up to more in terms of food . But if you are sending clothes/ shoes to sell and you can make a profit its worth it

    It's not worth it to send a barrel back home from the US. It's going to run over 1200+ all the other money you have paid to ship and to clear and take it to the house. The only good thing with the US is that you have food pantries you can get food from to help fill a barrel. But people are too ungrateful, so I wouldn't waste my money or time to send anything 🙄 Life inna foreign country is very hard for a lot of us!

    For me, sending just food to Jamaica is not worth it. So in my barrels I send a mixture of household items, such as small appliances and such, and then mixture of "expensive" food. Eg; I can get a bigger bag of Jasmine/Basmati rice for less money in the USA than in Jamaica. Mi nuh sens normally white rice and flour etc cause a the same price fi it a Jamaica

Some things you can follow but to do exactly like them, a lot of things have nothing to do with Jamaica, everything is for the country where it originated. They follow everything until now they are following the sins of America. Look up the Jamaican boys have their hair looking like women with earrings, tattoos everywhere not knowing it's a curse to mark their bodies. They have their pants hanging down, it's very very shameful.

    Police watch your videos too snd they see that you are not wearing your seatbelt. Watch out.
    I agree with not sending barrels. Too much hassle. Make sure the people have the same taste as you. Some are very ungrateful.
