You absolutely overpaid for everything. I go to Morocco almost every year from 2003-2019. Everyone gets ripped their first visit. If you have the opportunity to meet any of the Moroccan Women and go shopping with them. They will demand you get the correct price and you give them a small tip. So worth it.
The prices are insanely expensive for Morocco. They take advantage of tourists like no tomorrow. I remember when I was in Marrakech I haggled and got way better deals than what was asked just by walking away from the shop after hearing the price and that was the time the shop owner ran after me and changed the price to more than half and I still was not satisfied until I settled with my own offer. You should go to Turkey, you’ll live the shopping experience and cheaper prices even without haggling
How is turkey cheaper or safer with all the scam going around there ? You get scammed by Taxi drivers, in Hotels etc.. I have been there and Morocco felt way safer...
Thank you! That’s exactly why I made it! I watched tons of videos planning our trip and just couldn’t find exactly what I needed! I hope you enjoy your trip! 🤗 The haggling is REAL so really steal your nerves!!
Love the video. Thx for sharing. I think fair price is more important, during international travels, than a good deal. $6 for anything handmade is a steal...Plus they are beautiful. All the pieces are gorgeous.
I don’t know what triggered your videos to MY recommendations but... I ain’t mad about it @ ALL!!! How am I JUST seeing your channel!? You’re very beautiful Sis... Your skin, hair, energy and personality... And your presence in front of the camera is totally impressive and on point. Go you!!! Great Video. 👍💛
Every now and again the algorithm gets it right! 😊 Thank you so much! That was really kind of you to say! 🥰 I hope we can keep making content that you enjoy!! If there’s ever something you want to see please let me know!
@@Celiadw- You are most welcomed Sis. 😁👍And in ALL Honestly... I've been enjoying all of the content I've been viewing on your channel.👏👏👏 Earlier last week I saw the video I'd been waiting for, pt.2 of the office space you guys put together. 🤗😘 HOW AWESOME ARE YOU GIRL!!! Your helpers get a thumbs up too... 👏👍👏👍 EVERYONE PULLED TOGETHER AND... THE END RESULTS ARE BEAUTIFUL. Sending positive vibes your way and wishing you God's blessing in your life journey. Stay awesome. #Brooklyn,NY I subscribed the same day I discovered your channel.
@8:03 The kohl applicator is legit. I've purchased powdered kohl before with a similar applicator, nothing as nice as yours. You use it as he described it to you.
The culture of Morocco and many third world countries is “bargaining”. The more vulnerable you look the high the asking price, I enjoyed seeing what you bought and know that you love each one for their looks and the story behind them. But please don’t brag about your “good deals” The won.
YESSSSSSSSSSS TO THIS CHANNEL!!!!!!!!!!!! ♥ So glad I lucked upon this video!!! I love the whole haul - teach me your ways!!! Did you have any issues getting anything back through customs?
i love this. of course i cannot find a Hamman set at that low price. the rugs you have are beautiful the way they made it small i understand. i purchased a queen size blanket and when it arrived i thought i ordered the wrong size, but it was tightly wrapped and when i snapped the plastic out came this beautiful blanket. I love your videos.
Thank you sooooooooo much. I have no idea how to foreign money but you made it simple to figure out. Thanks for showing us your purchased and how much. I'm going in Feb 2023. Now I have a better idea what to wear. I'm loving your scarfs and hair. Def getting Argan oil for my hair. How do I get a Hammad?
Hi, happy holiday, I just watched your video, I enjoyed it so much! I stumbled across your video because for Christmas I got a leather pocketbook from my husband from Morocco, and the leather bag is beautiful, but I couldn't understand why it had such a bad smell, so I am airing it out now. I read the reviews from the site and everyone basically said the bags are beautiful, but they have a weird smell. I looked up the leather tanneries and it explains it all. Your information was so good. I would love to hear more about the place. We are big travelers also.
Celia I absolutely love all of your purchases . Especially the pillows and rug's. The videos of your experiences added so much to your video. Thanks for taking me on your trip.
I think your tiles are expensive, I won't pay more than $20 for all of them, definitely not $35!! Edit again: your next item expensive too....$85 for bag and the applicator!! Item 3: necklace, $80....No! Item 4: 3 pairs of Shoes for $60: maybe ok price. Item5: 2 scarves for $24 are ok. Item 6: prints $25 too expensive. Item 7: Butterflies art $10 expensive too: (I don't think he waited the butterflies to die first before he use it for his art!) Item 8: facial oil, $36 both expensive!! Item 9: pottery $100... a little bit expensive Item 10: prickly pear oil, $40 expensive Item 11: saffron $20 expensive Item 12: saffron balm $8 expensive Item 13: I hope not to find Made in China sticker on any of your products!! 😅 GREAT video, really enjoyed that!!
I will be adding Morocco to my dream travel list. I love love love your description of the country, the people and their craft/s. Thank you so much for sharing!!!❤❤❤❤
I bought 3 of the Cactus Pillows around 4 years ago and paid between 10-15 USD for one.. 200 USD seems very pricey. Do you remember what the single price for each pillow would have been?
Hi, I am a new subscriber! Great haul! I am dying over your sofa!! What color is it and where is it from? Also, no problems with TSA/Agriculture with bringing the olives back?
Love this video! Thanks for taking us there! Everything is so gorgeous and special. The oils from the women’s collective were especially wonderful. It’s nice to get these great products and to benefit the lives of folks in Morocco, glad you were happy with your purchases.
Thank you! This video really is one that I love, and love that other people love! I cherish all the things we brought back from Morocco and I hope to go back and get more! Thank you for your lovely comment! 🥰
Glad you showed this video because it was nice to the things you brought and getting the scarf from New York does not compare with the experience of seeing the dye process good job
Great video so many good shopping tips Iin Sept 'll be visiting marrakech for the 6th time only two days on arrival and before departure. I spend a month in Essaouria on the coast beautiful
I loved this session! I looked at one and was not sure about the Vlog. Can’t wait to see Italy! Love, love your NYC apartment. Waiting for a full tour once you complete everything. The balcony is cute!!
No, we are going the 21th of November. I have seen many travel blogs and vlogs about marrakech. And in Holland you have a lot of morrocan people. They often travel to their coutry and also come home with te goods from Morocco and pay less. Especially home goods. I'm not saying that the prices what you paid are not worthy ofcours. We are not Moroccan so maybe we will pay the same prices what you payed. Hopelfully you would like that i let know after we visit Morocco. Jade

So glad you found it helpful! It was an amazing trip we still talk about frequently! You’re going to have an amazing time!
This is so helpful. I leave next week :)
Those are crazy expensive prices
Going to Morocco this summer and I am looking at researching rugs online now. Thanks for the tips.
Have fun! You can probably haggle them down for more too!
Nice items but your prices are lil bit high.
Hi Jade! Thanks! Have you recently traveled to Morocco? What were some of the things we paid too much for?
No, we are going the 21th of November. I have seen many travel blogs and vlogs about marrakech. And in Holland you have a lot of morrocan people. They often travel to their coutry and also come home with te goods from Morocco and pay less. Especially home goods.
I'm not saying that the prices what you paid are not worthy ofcours. We are not Moroccan so maybe we will pay the same prices what you payed.
Hopelfully you would like that i let know after we visit Morocco.
Jade
I'm from Morocco and the prices are reasonable
I'll take reasonable lol! Thank you! 😊
How did you bring everything back?
We put a full a suitcase into an empty one when we left home so we had an extra one on the way back.
gurl...how you managed?
Awsome info thanks
That runner is just so cute!
Loved your video, very informative
At first I thought u said picked out a cat because I keep seeing videos that said there's alot of cats in Marrakech and I'm a cat mom 😅
There are a TON of cats there but that would have been an interesting trip home!
you guys buy way too much stuff being that you live in nyc. scale back on the stuff.
Or they can do what they want
