@@lagoon30 ...But then again, the wealthy has to maintain a certain lifestyle. You and I may just cook some tin mackerel and white rice; and mix some sugar & water; and we are cool with that for the day. The wealthy person can't do that
@@mr.c5969 That is the truth, people live according to their lifestyle and means. A lot of the things he purchased is not for everybody, where he shops is priced accordingly.
And about your grocery bill Asafa, going back to growing your own vegetables is a great idea. So too is coming off the JPS grid. You should also try buying local juices instead of the imported stuff and also making more of your own from local fruits.
I was saying to my husband this morning that it look like mi haffi reduce d days mi eat. Now is d time fi one meal a day. It ruff out deh bad. I purchase things for the house monthly n whatever mi buy it better serve. Going to the supermarket is traumatic-it mekk mi tink too hard bout life suh mi caah manage once a week. Things like bread I buy weekly. Mi mekk juices n reduce my purchases of same. My husband does a little farming which reduces purchase of some items. Not to mention JPS. That bill give mi anxiety everytime. An mi salary nuh move. Mi get depressed thinking about d cost of living.
I loved it when Asafa told Amieke to get a job 😄🤣 👋 Sweet little Amieke remember to say please when you ask for something and thank you when it's done. Aunty loves good manners ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Alyshia and Asafa, buy your grocery stuff in bulk 10lbs, 25lbs, in 3s and 6s. Wholesale prices. Use fruits to do juices. Freeze fruits that are in season, they can be used later. We need back cost controllers visiting supermarkets to keep the prices down.
Love this vlogg the prices are crazy for true ..me as a chef who operates my own business have to bring extra cash for the same goods every week...its crazy...not to mentioned JPS them cannot tame....good family video Powell's posse ..waiting on the shirts patiently
Yes mama../I love it..need more of mama dancing move…all these sugary drinks../ what happens to lemon water and lime water…put a drop of stevia for flavor….eventually these sugary drinks lead to Prostate cancer…we have to be more aware of what we put into our body.::👍❤️💯
Wow love your comment, all those sugary drinks not necessary. I only occasionally buy true juice other than that I buy local fruits and blend a big jug on Sundays. When that is finished we have water for the rest of the week and our fresh fruits. All the excess sugar causing so such lifestyle illnesses.
Good morning afternoon and evening Powell Family....Everywhere is expensive...in England 🇬🇧 £150 shopping, your just about coming home with 3 bags...😅😅Health happiness and strength 💪🏾 is more important....blessings 🙏🏽✝️❤
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Asafa, 😆 The Food is going to have a party in the stomach 🤣🤣🤣 ...that's cracking me up😅😅😅... You guys are shorter 🤣 😄. I remembered my every weekend parties when I was living in Jamaica 🇯🇲 😀. Those were the good old days 😀.
I particularly enjoyed the part where Safa was playing football with Amieke - Priceless! Blessings to the Powell family. Keep it up, Alyshia. Loving and hovering over your family. Blessings to you❤,
I saw Asafa, Alesha and Amieke at Dover raceway. I was so happy to see you guys, Alesha is extremely beautiful in person and tall, beautiful family. I was upstairs calling you guys and waving lol
I'm watching the ADs so you can get some AD revenue to help with those ridiculous bills. I feel your pain. Believe me it's the same in the states. I've been reevaluating my grocery shopping. 😭
Blessings everyone. Go mommy love seeing you. Life is very expensive and it's going to get worse but by the grace of God we are going to make it. Love you guys 🥰
It's the same thing in America just come from the supermarket and spend 100 just can't believe things is expensive everywhere depending on what you buy
Make it?? To where exactly?. Must be the grave. This doesn't stop until the elite has gained control jus a few months maybe yrs away. Vision 2030, Thts the code name.
I'm glad you did this asada cost of living is very high.... It's one of the things that is costing the recipe of poverty in Jamaican........ Cause basic amenities is high ...... Cost to get qualified is high ..
One of the greatest lessons I've learnt transitioning from 2020 is that as the economic situation changes, I also have to change. No unsolicited advice here, just relaying how I've adapted and hopefully can assist others under this post. Cutting down and back is key. I had to do a major evaluation of all the contributing elements affecting my finances and take drastic action. For example, I stopped buying certain meats and all food items that were devouring the bulk of my income. Things I saw as small items, were really not. Also, brand choices, the need to constantly keep buying some items knowing they were no longer affordable for me, etc. Not living like a pauper, but living within my means and establishing a budget. Also, figuring out various conservation techniques to save on utility bills. The internet is my cable now, too. You'd be surprised what sitting down and penciling out the 'small things' can do to save the pocket burn. What I'm saying is, yes things are getting harder...but if we continue to live the same way we were before things skyrocketed, we're going to continue to feel the drastic effects, because we're not changing anything about our lifestyle or day-to-day choices to minimize the extent of the impact of these economic changes on us. It sucks, the state we're in...but we have a responsibility, too. Those on minimum wage...smh...I can only imagine what they're going through right now....
Well said! Can you image to add to all this toll going up some ppl pay were increased by $23 JMD on the hour and the toll is going up by $50. Can someone explain to me how the average Jamaican gonna manage.
I totally agree as I too had to make changes to minimize the impact of high COL. I also got rid of local cable and now get it via VPN for one yearly payment - big savings dat!😀
The rich watch there money every penny just remember that thats why they get richer, but the poor they don't matter they'll spend and broke tomorrow that's fact
So true lol...he likes nice things but is very frugal. He's a smart guy. He only spoils himself by spending on his cars and investing in family vacations. The latter is very important though...family time is invaluable!
We love mommy , 🤗 shes adorable, good vibes , the baby is getting humourous now hes at that age , lol , lovely family Powells , ameke my heart, hes always the star of the vlogs 😁blessed love ❤💛💚
The government needs to do a survey on these over pricing in these supermarket it can't continue like this its evil they are over pricing stuff people #open your eyes people
Yes its true when u buy groceries the previous week and go back and purchase the same items the following week. You pay way more than what u paid for the week before and when ask questions they tell you US dollars went up, but when US goes down the price remains the same.
When I use to live in Jamaica as a single person I use to spend $21k a week on groceries.. My electricity bill was $7-9k a month in a very rural area (mostly because of my dryer) Taxi was the most expensive because I charter most places I’m going. If I wasn’t earning in USD dog nyam mi suppa I just can’t live in Jamaica
Hi Powell posse, cost of living will not go down no matter what and with what is happening in the world we just have to try and spend wisely, make sure we buy what we need and cut back, live within our means.
Make sure you plant a breadfruit tree, callaloo and some scotch bonnet pepper trees etc. Mommy made me smile with her dancing 😁 it must be nice having her around. Btw cinnamon crunch serial is pure sugar and yes, groceries are expensive everywhere.
Big up from Atlanta…ya man, food expensive here too in America…but I’ve heard dat u can get food everywhere in Jamaica where u can pick ackees from trees, breadfruit same way and bananas, plaintain n yam too..or u can buy those cheaper from the local vendors…or maybe plant dem in ur yaad …
I was there for 32 days so tell me about it. Plus I send 3 barrels. I was less stress though. Now my bp is through the roof back in Babylon. Happy shopping and packing Powell posse.
Real talk. Somebody needed to speak out. I love Jamaica but if athletes not getting the support from the government to sustain themselves they should leave. Good name can’t put inna pot and boil
Mammmay! You Go girl..☺☺☺👏👏. Asafa you are a wonderful son in law...your wife must be greatful to have her mom close. Thats why your blessing s won't stop. Yes things are expensive abroad also...one hundred dollar ain't nothing to blow out in one trip.
Love how you keep these videos real, the boys growing so fast. Cost of living is very high. People are screaming. Even in the USA. People we have to 🙏❤️🙏
Blessed good afternoon to family Powell's and mom n easy she csn handle her self with dancing . Amieke is a hsnd full by him selfvand the baby is going to give him a run for his money 🎊🥳💚❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏😷😷
I eat mainly peas and beans and make lots of split peas dahl. Saves me lots of money. Thank God for the mango season so I didn't but much fruits and I froze quite a bit of the mangoes
I am glad you pointed out the expensive side of life in Jamaica.
Asafa can you imagine if life in Jamaica is expensive for celebrated wealthy people like you, what is it like for the average Jamaican???!!!
Trust me he has no clue... I have anxiety attacks anytime I have to go grocery shopping.

I live in new york its hard very high i just go buy 5 pound of goat meat 33 dollars
I don’t go there.
Awww Safa, if u a bawl bout cost of living a wah me fi do....halla🤕😭😭
Go mammieeeeeee 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 she a whole vibe
And about your grocery bill Asafa, going back to growing your own vegetables is a great idea. So too is coming off the JPS grid. You should also try buying local juices instead of the imported stuff and also making more of your own from local fruits.
Getting off JPS grid is an expensive venture that is not affordable for most of us plus u must do so properly so that u really see the savings.
@@mariastewart8810 a world class athlete is not "most people"
I like the way you teach Prince Ameike to cleanup in a fun way. Just be consistent with it.
Mr Powell... "Hey Ameike you cyaah Ina glasses an Ina breef".🤣🤣🤣🤣

Trust me I know exactly how you feel, I'm planting veggies now, and I usually make my own juices which is always best in my opinion.

When I use to live in Jamaica as a single person I use to spend $21k a week on groceries..

Taxi was the most expensive because I charter most places I’m going.

21k per week for a single person is alot tbh. Luckily you were earning USD.
