There is a big difference in price range from December to now , especially with lettuce, sweet pepper and tomato. The price for those items were so high in December.
Love it. You are very authentic. I have migrated over 25 years. When I visit JA, I could not believe how people were not buying local and spending what I definitely know they can't afford!!!
Roch, first of all always happy to see Grannylin, and Mommylin I love those two ladies, so $5000 can go a long way lots of shopping, love the video, big up yourself 👍🌹💕💕
I'm so proud to see you highlighting life in Jamaica from an honest and uncut point of view. Its videos like these that have me mentally packing my suitcase and waiting for the chance to come home. It may be tough in JA but there's no place like it. Big Up!
DJ Yagga heard about this market but its said that it is dangerous do not see anything going on the press tells lies then in the jamaican newspapers reading it here in Canada
Nothing but memories watching this video. I enjoyed going to Coronation with my mother as a child and eating ripe bananas and oranges while she was shopping. Callaloo man skillful with the "GREENS"!! The carrots look like a pair of gloves!!
I always think the market prices are better than supermarket and the produce are much fresher. Memories, when I was a kid I used to go to that market with my mom.🥰
I love to see the fresh local produce. There's is no way things should be imported to Jamaica, there's sunshine, water and more land than anything. I feel sad, when I was growing up there was no such thing as import. There seems to be a lack of willingness to work. Bwoy mi coulda eat two a di patty deh doe my laawd!!!!!😭😭😭
You did very well , you bought a lot with the money and you supported the local farmers and vendors , thus keeping the money in Jamaica . Well done and you keep smiling
I’m watching from Bridgeport Connecticut and I appreciate your information about shopping in Jamaica some items are comparable with us some are better and some are more expensive 🙏 over all your Video along with your personality is great. Thanks beautiful lady for the information 👍🏾
Thank you for sharing how much we can expect to get in the market for $5000 in your currency. I visited Jamaica in 2018 and the tour guide took us to a market but she knew we were not experienced enough as Americans, so she took orders and bought us a few things. Thanks to you the next time I visit, I can shop myself.
If I lived in Kingston, I'd make the time to go to Coronation market because the supermarkets are super expensive when it comes to selling these items. When I lived in kgn that's exactly what I used to do even when my friends and colleagues frowned at the practice.
Me too,I was born in Kingston and don't know kingston,all I know in Kingston is the Pegasus hotel and Rosemary lane and thats it,when I had to go to immigration a few times,the lines were so long,I couldn't do the lines,so I gave the security guard on thousand Jamaican to help me and my paper work and he took me right to the immigration officer At the time I didn't realize I was briding a government official so please don't do what I did I can look at someone and tell they are struggling really bad and it compels me to help them and I saw that on the security guard that he was struggling and if I help him he would help me and I gave him more each time I came back But years later I realize I had done something illegal
The prices back then I assume where affected by the heavy rains and as the young lady said, much was imported. Other than the yam and lemon don't see no fruit or potato. BTW, don't buy so much lettuce if you not planning to eating it all within 10 days and things like yam (peel); onion, sweet pepper (wash and cut into large diced pieces), if you not going to eat it all within a week, and can be frozen; garlic can be peeled and stored in glass jar with oil Since I cook only for me, in the past a lot of things would spoil as i never cooked everyday, along the way I found ways to help preserve some food items
@@Rochielin Had to find ways to preserve the food that was bought and not used quickly..... believe me, I have had to throw out a lot of fruits, veggies etc .... can't waste that kind of money especially now with the price of everything so high
I stay in JA a couple months throughout the year. I just returned from a three month stay. Prices in December was so crazy. As Americans we are like wow $5000JMD/$35USD gets you all of that. We must understand that there are a lot of people who are still not working due to Covid. I personally know people who received only $4000 for the entire month since the start of this pandemic. With that said, realistically veg(seasonings) tend to be cheap in JA especially if you are buying directly from the farmer. However, when it comes to purchasing things like cooking oil the prices are ridiculous. Household items tend to be super high as well because they are mostly imported. Great job Rochielin! I love going to the market in Falmouth and just stopping at various farms in top Trelawney. There is also a lady who sells veg in the parking lot of L&M meats in Salem along the main road just outside Royal Decameron who has really great prices.
This looks like Nigerian Market. Heyyyyy Grandma & Mommy! First time here. Am loving the vibe of your channel - Subbed & turned on my bell! Excited for more videos from you.
I'm from New York but one day I plan to live in Jamaica for an extended period of time....This was great information...So happy for this video......Now I'd like to see what you make with the veggies...
I'm surprised, I would have thought produce prices would be a bit lower there than they are! I wish we had similar markets, but our weather is much colder most of the year. Great video, well put together. Keep up the good work!
The heavy rains during the October onwards gave many farms a hit. Tomatoes were scarse because it seemed that got a hit. It was scarce and selling at a high price from October.
You can't get half of that here in USA for $35 not matter whay staye or where you live, point blank and period. People who live here think everything is soo cheap here, not true.
I just came across your channel and I enjoyed your shopping experience a great deal. I do not live in Jamaica, but I was shocked how you stretched $5000. Thank you for such a great experience. I love it!!
Yes i agree, i find it difficult to take vid clips downtown kingston, i am not afraid of the robbers (i'm a streetwise london/jamaican dude) its more to do with the attitude of the people, quite frankly they dont like been filmed by people they dont know, and some are not afraid to tell yu
It’s granny-Lin for me she has such a beautiful smile I’m loving the scenes of this Market…. I had to come back when someone said move your Belly I actually hollered that was so funny
Rochielin thanks for this video, And those are not so expensive like it here in Trinidad 🇹🇹🇹🇹 Thats $232.09 TTD =TO $5000 JMD Jamaica way cheaper 😯than the market here $5000 JMD = to $232.09 can't buy so much food here in our market.

That should be one of the easiest things to do, mingle & socialize w/o feeling superior & looking at people as if they are subservient & don't deserve love, kindness & respect.

Wow! You did an amazing feasibility study. Cost a living is very high globally. But $ 35 in America can only buy 6 oranges, 6 lemon 4 tomatoes 1 cabbage 🥬 I think Jamaican should go back to do farming it’s a very productive, & fertile earth.

Rochielin, really, really enjoyed watching your video at the Coronation market. I was surprised how much stuff you bought for JMD$5,000 and most of which was organic grown in Jamaica. Love your Granny Lin.. keep up the good work and I will keep watching.. One Love.
Journalist in the making . Idk you might very well be havent read your bio just happened to come across your vid. Such poignant topic!!! Market so organized This is the type of content that keeps me close to home. Mama sheltered us from the market now shes paying for it with back issues. The price fluctuation supply & demand crazy such a huge difference.
Rochielin, you got a lot of food and everything looks so good. I'm an American and I've been to Jamaica a few times. I love, love, love Jamaica and it's people. Jamaicans are the nicest and most welcoming people in the world. ♥️♥️♥️
i must admit , going to the market is an extreme sport that requires alot of shop around but i enjoy doing it because i am supporting the local farmers and sellers
@@sophiabartley7059 our people child. But them again i have to deal with these people who thinks there isn't such a thing as COVID or curses me out to do my job in trying to keep them safe. At least she's been funny about it.

Is that enough food for the both of you for at least one week. I'm thinking not. If it' s organic wow. Still a bargain. I think so anyway. Granny is precious. Janice
Trust me, Latocha, buying produce at 'Curry' is a guarantee that you are getting fresh stuff at low prices. Buying the same produce in a supermarket is a guarantee that they may have been sitting on the shelves for days and the price is high. I would NEVER be seen buying farm produce in a supermarket, the market IS the place to be. Furthermore, it's always refreshing to interact with the farmers and vendors there. You learn a lot from them.
Thanks for sharing! I literally just spent $35 at the grocery store here in the States (and this is one of the lower-priced markets with a discount cart. I STILL did not have anywhere near as much produce/food as you bought. I got a 1/4 pound of chop meat, one small box of lettuce, one cucumber, 2 small cups of yogurt, one pack of wraps, 1/4 pound of lunch meat, a jar of mayo, a pack of seasoning and two piece of garlic. That's IT. $35 finished, even WITH the discount card. I miss Jamaica so much man!

Because of the crime rate y.all need to help the government and fight against crime nooooooooo one should be paying that amount of money to eat
The rains that we got earlier mash up the local farmers them that's why price did so high.

Me stop cooking with tomatoes
In New York, $35 could barely get me half of what you got. Prices are ridiculous up here
Check Asian markets and Indian markets as well as farmers markets in your area. Best prices there not big box stores.

In few years time a lot of people will regret why they miss this great opportunity of earning.

@@goldbarsuperiahspotlight7065 I just received my 23andMe results and was surprised to discover that the Ghana area accounted for 26 percent of my DNA vs. 51 percent from Nigeria. I had felt sure that Ghana would be my main contributor.
Rochielin, really, really enjoyed watching your video at the Coronation market. I was surprised how much stuff you bought for JMD$5,000 and most of which was organic grown in Jamaica. Love your Granny Lin.. keep up the good work and I will keep watching.. One Love.
Everything is expencive from market to meat shop to supermarket especiall in st james
Journalist in the making . Idk you might very well be havent read your bio just happened to come across your vid.
Such poignant topic!!! Market so organized This is the type of content that keeps me close to home. Mama sheltered us from the market now shes paying for it with back issues. The price fluctuation supply & demand crazy such a huge difference.
That was my married name Lecky.
That's the amount I spend at the market too and I pretty much bought most of the things you purchased.
I've been craving callaloo since I visited Jamaica in Dec '19. I CAN NOT WAIT TO COME BACK!!!!
When I come to jamaica definitely has to shop at coronation market,and make a big pot of red peas soup,its gonna be so awesome
Definitely!
@@Rochielin thank you (Desting the whale Nemo 🐋)
My sentiments exactly
Rochielin, you got a lot of food and everything looks so good. I'm an American and I've been to Jamaica a few times. I love, love, love Jamaica and it's people. Jamaicans are the nicest and most welcoming people in the world. ♥️♥️♥️
LOve the video." Rasta move yuh belly" Thanks
🎯
i must admit , going to the market is an extreme sport that requires alot of shop around but i enjoy doing it because i am supporting the local farmers and sellers
wow...I enjoyed this so much....you are a people person....nice
Yes,she is,share share everywhere,reach a lone jamaican out there in the world
Good information 😬. When we move to the USA we plan on visiting Jamaica regualrly. The prices are fairly reasonable and similar to us in the UK.
Love your grandma.... I'd have bought more stuff but to each his own. However I liked the video
Thanks for sharing this excellent information. Greetings from James J in Limerick city Ireland
Tell your mom the filter of the mask is only on the white side.. ""white side in, blue side out"
Also the she had on the mask upside down the part which had the inner wire is to be shaped on the nose
@@sophiabartley7059 our people child. But them again i have to deal with these people who thinks there isn't such a thing as COVID or curses me out to do my job in trying to keep them safe. At least she's been funny about it.
Yes explain to her why. So many people don't wear the mask how sad..
I love going to market, seeing the fresh fruits and vegetables excites me! Especially if you go a early Saturday morning then come back and put on the pot ah soup using all those fresh ingredients. Wah nice so!
This brings back lovely memories

Is that enough food for the both of you for at least one week. I'm thinking not. If it' s organic wow. Still a bargain. I think so anyway. Granny is precious. Janice
I'm subscribing to support you darling love how you include Grannylin mi luv it continue darlin God go wid unno!! 💖
Thanks love I really appreciate it. Here’s part 2 ruclips.net/video/LV2ZUujKSnQ/видео.html
It looks like Sierra Leone market 💕💕, much love.
This was exactly what I was thinking!
I have too much respect for my elders to speak to them in such a way.
This was very informative. I need to stop buying in supermarkets all the time and go to town more regularly.
Trust me, Latocha, buying produce at 'Curry' is a guarantee that you are getting fresh stuff at low prices. Buying the same produce in a supermarket is a guarantee that they may have been sitting on the shelves for days and the price is high. I would NEVER be seen buying farm produce in a supermarket, the market IS the place to be. Furthermore, it's always refreshing to interact with the farmers and vendors there. You learn a lot from them.
Thanks for taking us along ✨✨so interesting to see what $5000 Jamaican Dollars will buy compare to Canadian dollars 💸👌🏽
I learned alot today, didn't know we so much importing at all...sad but survival it is.

Thank you for your video, it is a great insight to kingston market and general maket prices. I hope you continue to flourish, god bless.
I enjoyed this video. Where i live that $5000 would be about $100 and trust me, i wouldnt get half of that
😢😢😢😢 me too
Thanks for sharing! I literally just spent $35 at the grocery store here in the States (and this is one of the lower-priced markets with a discount cart. I STILL did not have anywhere near as much produce/food as you bought. I got a 1/4 pound of chop meat, one small box of lettuce, one cucumber, 2 small cups of yogurt, one pack of wraps, 1/4 pound of lunch meat, a jar of mayo, a pack of seasoning and two piece of garlic. That's IT. $35 finished, even WITH the discount card. I miss Jamaica so much man!
I love how much grannyyy is loving the camer lol nice!
I love markets. I really enjoyed this video. 📹 Thank you!
Soon as I saw granny, I smiled 😊
