Cassandra, the children are growing very fast. Because we are seeing them everyday; it does not show. Howverr, when you are looking at pictures, you definitely see the difference. That's why I love to take pictures and video of my children; no matter the occassion.
So true!
in the US nothing is cheap its all over the world we just have to live with it and pray about it love you guys
Stay blessed! ☺️
I watched this video with my wife. She actually looked up the 28 cu fridge in Lowes dept store. Here in North Carolina it cost $1,300 in Jamaica you were paying 1,570 so in Jamaica it cost $270 more, that is not bad. 🙂 We could Never get as much fruits and vegetables with $60 here she said that was the best part of your shopping.
The original price is more than $2000 (over $300,000). It’s marked down because of damage.
@@TheDelprattFamilyOh we never saw the damage. $700 is a big difference. However I gotta say things are just as expensive here. Fruits and vegetable prices are crazy high. More Jamaicans should take the time like you guys and visit the markets or Fruit Stands prices are good at those places.
Yep, market videos and driving around the country side are the best
@drewski1441, I was saying the same thing. I spend over $300.00 every 2 weeks on grocery here in Georgia. Atleast the fruits and vegetables taste so much better compare to here these forced ripe or green fruits. We can pay the fruits half ripe and when we think it is ripe inside is black😢. We must all learn to appreciate our island Jamaica
@@carlenewalker3236right.
And for the persons commenting about food cost in ja same as us where I travel 😂...u guys have aldi,dollar general,publix for very low cost items u dont have to go walmart and the others plus way more means of earning in us versus Jamaica because we got one job here u guys got the opportunity to work more than one jobs. Be realistic people. Have a nice day yall.❤😊
I so agree with what you said 👏
So true even Cass said she dont know how the minimum wage worker manages and that is like USD 92 per week. Food is expensive here.
For the rosemary pick off the bottom leaf use knife and scrape it off then use rooting powder and plant it ,but u have to ensure u wet it so it can catch
Will try that, thanks 🙏🏾
Delpratt family, we in the US could not get all that you purchase in the market for what you spend, you are all still working out much better than us, and also we are also feeling the heat 98 degree feels like 100 with the humidity.
That’s so true but when you compare what Jamaicans earn vs the rest of world, you’re seeing that Jamaican families here are working miracles to make ends meet.
I think that the perception of a lot of Jamaicans is that when you live in the states you are making a lot of money and also you can pick up money from the ground. A lot of people are only making minimum wage, some people have to be sharing an apartment with two or three to help pay the rent, and some drive, some take the bus to work it’s credit card that save a lot of us, and any where they can find food giving alway they find it, and that’s no shame. So please people stop thinking that because we live in the US we all earn much more than Jamaicans, we are having it just as hard.
the green onion that you bought...just put one in water and it will continue to grow. If you plant it, you won't need to buy. It keeps growing
Thanks for the tip!
@ 3:45 you rounded down when the trailing numbers were 999 so it is not a 39000 mark down but a 40000 mark down.😊
Cass looking wonderful as usual, keep taking care of our queen adrian and the kids growing up nicely all the best for the week blessings😊
Thank you Yanique
The bread is cheaper in Jamaica
This what mi talk bout everyday how people Fi live off minimum wage madness
But those things cost the same amount of money in the USA 🇺🇸
@@sharoncookhorn4899 ok but imagine a adult getting $13000 a week are less I currently work a the airport and a that dem pay the ramp agent a week just a little bit more 15000 thousand a week and imagine ur light bill coming to $10000 to 13 000 right now that's why mi personally a done with working for people walking away from 9to5 cruel system
Bread cost $5.49 in USA 🇺🇸
It rough on the average earner in Jamaica yes!
@@TheDelprattFamily pass rough it madness
Love these type of videos, Big Up! Delpratt Family
Respect!
I love this video so much i always go to pricemart and coronation market when i come to Jamaica
Yes!
Thanks for sharing your shopping journey may God continue to bless you and your beautiful family
Thanks a million!
Big up to the gentleman, Kas looking classy as usual 👌. Good looking family 😊
Hey guys love this market run I miss this kinda shopping in Jamaica everything looks so fresh, thanks for sharing ❤
We need to go back to back yard gardening eat what we grow its gonna get worst 1 paper bag run me $100 dollars especially since I changed my diet and eating healthy it is the same thing herein US rent a kill we we barely have anything left for food 🙏
Blessings. Blessings to you and your family. Wonderful Video. Keep up the good work.
That is a great job quoting the prices in 🇺🇸 $ ,i think in some case you would get more groceries in 🇯🇲 jamaica vs USA
Big up!
Adrian I'm visiting my sis in New Jersey right as I'm watching your video. She buys the case of meats (snapper, oxtail) in Ja. I would have to buy only the day's use. But it's a give and take for me. But our local vegs are more my natural size. Good video
When all is said and done, prices are not much better in the US.
This is what people are not realizing... but the only truth is that you have the possibility of earning more in the states
Blessings ❤
Welcome back again to Delpratt family 💙💯✔️
That’s is even cheaper in Jamaica than USA you get nice things reasonable we would pay more over here good buy 👍
Ok yess I am here
🙌🏾
Blessings family…y’all looking easy like Sunday morning 😁😁…anyways nuh worry unuh self because the supermarket shopping where am at in the states here is not too much different yuh seet & worse of all we gotta spend in us suh di money run up easy
So it is yea….
@@TheDelprattFamily yeah family…upstate New York mi deh & people hafi maintain a job in order fi take care of business yuh seet especially when u own yuh own house & other things suh unuh nuh have no fear just gwaan duh unuh ting…trust mi its a good look fi unuh INI luv how y’all keep the family together same thing here with me my wife & our 3 girls 😁
Food prices in the States is high also.
That’s true
Just came back from Jamaica and I did a price comparison in a few of the supermarkets and everything I looked at was more than half the price we paid for the same items in the USA. For example: I a Jamaica bun cost $145 JA. That same bun in the USA cost $2.50. The exchange rate, if we must go there is $151. JA/USA. Jamaican are living better that us. A dollar is a dollar in its own country. The problem is, some Jamaican rejected their natural grown item for imported items that had to go through all that testing before hitting the shelves.
@@ifyouhavelivedtv that dollar is a dollar argument I always find ridiculous because minimum wage in Jamaica is like $13000/week, which is less than $100 USD. that’s the issue the ordinary Jamaican have living here. Of course you can say a dollar is a dollar because you travel here will your USD salary and convert it to spend so of course it’ll feel the same for you but remember, the common man here earns less than $100/week and he would have a family to feed out of that.
Love the market video
Hi Delprat Family , I don't agree with your reason for promoting the use of USA currency in Jamaica. Is Price Mart prices in $US Dollars ? It is not clear to me what you're doing.🇲🇾 USA, Canadian 🇨🇦and British 🇬🇧visitors probably do benefit from the currency exchanges. I agree , a minimum wage person would not be able to get hold of USA currency to shop in a Supermarket in Jamaica. So for that reason, why not promote our Jamaican 🇯🇲 Currency?
A few months ago I was in Jamaica, and I was delighted to see some Souvenirs in a section of the Supermarket that I shopped. They were priced at Jamaican currency. As a Yardy Visitor, that's what I like to see. Stay blessed! 🙏 🇯🇲🇨🇦
It’s not about promotion. We’ve been creating UA-cam content for a few years now and seen feedback on many videos prior. You don’t need to be offended. We were spending Jamaican dollars if you watched the video but it’s just a way for some international viewers to get some perspective. Some don’t understand the conversion so when we talk about Jamaican dollars, they are confused. We get a lot of comments from persons asking “how much is it in USD?”.
@@TheDelprattFamily Good morning. I watched the complete video and wanted to mention the Market shopping, however I didn't want to make the comment too long. I am not offended, are you ? I notice you didn't bother to leave the usual Sticker. Anyway stay blessed! 🙏🇯🇲🇨🇦
Delpratt family was just giving us an idea what it would cost in US versus Jamaican dollars and that’s what I personally like them to do when they are doing a shopping blog. Much love family
@@TheDelprattFamily I appreciate what you're doing because the money conversion is confusing thanks 😊
Where in Jamaica are u shopping
Thank you i always wish someone do This
Hi family wats good hope you're doing good
We’re good thanks!
You just wash the peach 🍑 and eat skin and everything
The "real" fruits and vegetables in the market are very well priced. It is junk food like Froot Loops that are over priced and not nutritious.
1 water coconut in the US is us10.00
Yes, it is in Maryland...where I live!
Wow..in Florida where l live it's $2.50...on the street it's 3 bucks
That’s a lot but we can understand cz coconuts would be imported in the US.
it’s $4-$10 here in new orleans. depending on the brand
How can you compare shopping in Jamaica to the us ? The dollar is completely different. Jamaica is a third world country where you get $150 to $1 usd , no comparison whatsoever
Watch and you’ll see. It provides perspective for diaspora people, non Jamaicans watching from 1/2 way around the world and those persons who are interested in traveling to Jamaica soon.
@@TheDelprattFamily I was just in Jamaica three weeks ago, yes it expensive there, the try to sell me everything in usd and inflate the prices but I still can’t compare the dollar bc for each usd I exchange I would get $150 jd, if i spend $300 usd in America would definitely get more items than you would there
i hope prices go down 😢 really unfair but this is happening all over the world. especially in the US. this has to stop ugh. what can we do as people to make these inflation prices go down?
❤❤❤❤
Is the grape imported, its expensive?
They’re imported. I’d say inexpensive especially seeing that it’s very much optional
Hey guys I could hardly hear most of the things Cas was saying.. poor volume. However it was a very interesting vlog, wish I could have heard more.. things are also extremely expensive here also in the states...
Anyway you all looking great.
Hi Good day is any land selling him the country side on portland? Plz
I need a number for the houses in St. Mary. Locator did not give us one. Sorry 8ask here.
They’re the ones selling. Their info was provided.
Scallion and thyme very inexpensive in Jamaica
Yes
Why US Dollars? I thought Jamaicans get their salaries in Jamaican Dollars
We do but majority of the viewers are outside of Jamaica so we try to make it more understandable for them. It’s just conversions really
Is this the coronation market in Kingston or is there a market in Portmore
Coronation market down town.
@@TheDelprattFamily ok thanks
Jamaican would have a heart attack if they see wholes food prices
Thanks again andrian for sharing another vlog ....I dont see why everyone making a fuss about us dollars...guys be realistic and practical unuh complain bout everything...us dollar is basically the second most textured currency in Jamaica so why the fuss house prices in usd for majority of houses on sale now,car prices in usd at some agents and hotel prices in usd so what's the issue sometime we really use ignorance when not needed.especially when you go mobay and ochi usd to kill 😂😂😂so get with it people and use google for conversion she even had a calculator for god sake .smh yall just a tad much.
Thank you!
give the kids water to drink, its more healthy and cheaper on your wallet. the box juice is bad for you anyways
My dear things so expensive bread $500
This video is miss leading to me because u could shop at wholesale it cast way less than when u shop at supermarket or price mart
Have you ever done a price comparison for a single item we bought there vs a wholesale? You can check it
Wholesale are expensive
Market tun up,even Curry.
Ginger cheap in Jamaica.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤
Cass the children growing but you looking so sexy in that green dress and your hairstyle is on par.Even your hubby do fix up himself. Do ont talk about Grandma Val the slim fit lady in the kitchen and I fontvher dishes especially when cooking ghetto steaks.😂😂😂Me know no about you but it sweet oooh.Enjoy your budgeting shopping looking on to help me in my shopping as well.
The majority of Jamaicans don’t shoot with US. So why not say the equivalent???
Jamaican based views is in the minority. Our audience is mainly international and often times are confused with our currency.
Overall market produce is very cheap
That’s true
dem peaches 🍑are too green
💛💚🖤
Good video 😮yes but the average Jamaican doesn't shop where u shop 🫣you guys r rich the mom goes to the local supermarket,the local harbashery courts,etc and make payments plan monthly we cant shop like u guys🤕🤕🤕 sorry this goes out to all the RICH FAMILY who can shop at MEGA MART🤣🤣🤣🤣.
We rich? 😂😂😂 you’re funny
Why not give us USD, CAD and GBP lol... Just observing that since COVID everything in Jamaica is being compared to the USD... Coincidentally houses are now in USD and you're a house channel lol. Was there a special reason to use USD?
That’s always how the world been…nothing changed. The USD has historically been the most traded currency world wide. Anybody anywhere around will be able to easily convert USD to their own currency.
Samsung is awful when it comes to appliances.
Not true!! We have Samsung everything in my house 15 yrs and only had to change the front load washing machine..
@@drewski1441 I love Samsung as well and they give 5 to 10 years warranty on their appliances compare to other brands.
How do i send you a private message...i need your advice on some thing
