To get stuff in packs or wholesale you can check out CKs Supercenters which is at the end of the highway ( last sgu stop on the highway). Also, that same store has more snack variety.
Hmm thanks! I'll check it out. I'm still learning the islands and showing friends/family back home of the basics of what I've been experiencing so far.
That's kind of funny to see stuff that I can buy here in Eastern Canada in the middle of the Carribean sea! You go to the beach, I go snowshoeing! Found your videos searching for stuff to do in Grenada...going in a month
Good morning Brittney my dear from England, I would love to see some more comparison prices as we are thinking about relocating and retiring to Grenada and there is not many informative videos like yours and it would be splendid if we seen some more. Thank you in advance!
Hey! Lovely vlog..I felt like I was walking through IGA as well. If you're looking for more variety in snacks and local vegetables, you should visit Food Fair. You can get to it by taking the Morne Toute Bus. Another supermarket that usually has cheez its(I'm a fan as well 😄) is Food land, but you'll need to take a public bus to get it because the closest one is on Lagoon Road.
Thanks! Yeah I've been to Food Fair once. And I've seen Food Land, but like you said it's a little further so haven't made it there. And glad to know I can find the cheezits there!
Anyone else from Grenada looking at this? I want to visit Grenada because of its raw beauty. Don't want to stay at a "fake" resort. When I lived in Hawaii (4 years) I befriended some locals that showed me what life there was really like. The struggles, how to fish, and an understanding of the perception of the military presence and how it affects daily life. That was an education.
Hiii nice video! Not sure if you’ve done an updated version but for those of you seeing this Real Value is generally more expensive than other supermarkets (mainly because they cater to SGU students). But you can go to other stores and get the same stuff for a lot less. Also fresh produce is alwaysss cheaper at the market. Water can be bought in bulk from stores like Andall or even directly from Glenelg (local water brand). There’s lots of places you can shop, just got to shop around. Yes it is pricey but remember most of those things are imported so taxed and what not. Ps I lived in the US for 7 years lol it’s an adjustment when you’re used to getting certain things 🤷🏾♀️
Of course. Yes, i've done several videos after this. This was one of my first. I have a grocery video from a local grocery store and a vlog going to the market. I try to get produce from locals at stands and such, and Ive just learned to buy local brands too. Definitely an adjustment and I'm a student who's not afraid to venture out. Some of my peers do the same, but I feel like the vast majority do what's close and convenient for them, even if more expensive.
Brittney Kilgore Yes I saw those after. That’s great that you venture out. I just wanted to make sure others know there’s option if they didn’t see it. But yeah some people just like convenience but part of fun living the island life is exploring! 😃 Happy you’re having an amazing experience!
Thanks for the video..I expected things to be higher there. Seems like most expensive are frozen items and cereal. If you go to whole sale food place please make a video. Good luck in school!
So good of you to vlog your experience in Grenada. I studied abroad before vlogging was a thing. These are memories that will last you a lifetime. Do the most not the minimum and try shopping in the local market to support local farmers.
Could you show the types of feminine products and to-go containers/bottles to take to class (the one where you bought the big jug of water) and if there are any kinds of pain relief like Aleve? Are there towels, pillowcases, and stationary/office supplies? Thank you!
Also, laundry hampers, storage caddies for putting anything in, etc? How much do seasonings cost? Sorry for the randomness, I'm doing a lot of research and I like knowing as much as possible.
Hi! I recently made another grocery video so I probably won't be making one soon (I'm also leaving for summer) BUTTT i can still verbally help you: for feminine products, there are still all types of pads and tampons by American brands and local brands. The grocery store and home store sells bottles and containers. Many students buy those plus towels, bedding, etc here. Office supplies and notebooks can be purchased here but it's much more expensive. There are also OTC drugs available. I get ibuprofen all the time. There is also a pharmacy/convenience store a few minutes outside of campus. Feel free to message me on Facebook with any other questions
Hey Brittney! Not going to lie - this one made me a little dizzy! Lol. But I how did you get to your off-campus place from the school after shopping? I believe this video is before you purchased your car.
Hey yeah i'm still embarrassed at the quality of this. I wish I had redone it. But there are SGU buses that go to and from the grocery store to campus. Then I would swap to the SGU bus that would take me in the area where my apartment was
Nothing is really marketed as "organic" but most of the produce is locally gron (my double u is broken on my laptop lol). And you can tell its local/home-gron. Also, there's alot of produce stands that people sell produce fresh from their yards/neighborhoods
There's many vegan, dairy-free, etc items that are dietary restrictions. I've never looked for things gluten-free but I assume there are options! They may just be higher in price
Everything that is imported is sooo much more expensive 😑 a bag of hot cheetos i found at the gas station were 12 ec ! And the eggs arent ever in the cold isle like the shop next to the movie theater... and milk goes sooo fast
what kinds of Coffee I can get from IGA?? I am a huge coffee person, and I want to know what I should bring to the island for coffee making. Do they sell grounded coffee or whole coffee bean?? Please share your idea what should I bring. :D
They sell a lot of coffee types at IGA. Grenada even has locally brewed coffee that everyone says is great. They'll have big mainstream brands, but if you want something specific, you might want to bring it. I can definitely check next time I go for what actual brands they have.
@@BrittneyKilgore oh. I don't want any specific brands. I might ask in a wrong way. The reason why I ask is to prepare what coffee machine that I need to bring. Let's say, if they sell ground coffee been, then I can easily bring a coffee maker. If they only sell the whole bean, then I need to bring a grinder to make a powder like form for filtering. :D. Thank you so much (smile) (look at the name tag), Brittney ;]
I Love my Caribbean people’s slower pace. It is wonderful!!!! In America everything is too fast and tiring!!!!
All depends on where you live in the US
Mostly the south is slower in America. Everywhere isn’t fast

Hmm thanks! I'll check it out. I'm still learning the islands and showing friends/family back home of the basics of what I've been experiencing so far.
Btw I'm a local and also an sgu student
Cool cool! Maybe I will see you around campus sometime!
Instablaster.

That will definitely be a change but I'm sure you'll love it here. It's very beautiful. Beaches are calm. People are friendly. It's great
This was really good I appreciated you doing this🧡thank you 🇹🇹

I'll try to make one next semester once I'm back. This isn't the first time I've got asked this haha

May be that place do not sell cases of bottle water
But you can get cases of bottle water other places
I was just in that grocery store a week ago. Was surprised it was as expensive as US.
Girl if I was you I would have a garden for vegetables since the grocery store is so expensive...
Lol I don’t have a green thumb at all! Or the land to do it sadly
Yes i make a garden if i was there

Thanks! And I do. This was one of my first videos but I've started shopping at many other local venues too.

Hi I’m a new subscriber and also a youtuber nice video.... love your accent . Keep the videos coming ...
Thanks so much!! I'll keep at it :)
Each time I see you and Maggie on route to and from school I always trying to say hi but to no avail lol
Lol really where at
I know one thing grenada safer than jamaica all island is expensive
This video was very interesting. Thank you. I'm debating on a Caribbean trip.
Thank you. How is the Healthcare?
Bless you, if not accumulated to Island life, not know how to hustle, one might struggle. Luv it..The prices not bad!
Thanks for bringing me with u to grandanse
I am originally from Grenada. It could be pricey,especially cereal.
You should try shopping at other supermarkets. Ck's super value sells water by the case and other suff also.
I've heard that one is good. I keep telling myself to go there and haven't. I might pop in this weekend
Hey Brittney! Not going to lie - this one made me a little dizzy! Lol.
But I how did you get to your off-campus place from the school after shopping?
I believe this video is before you purchased your car.
Hey yeah i'm still embarrassed at the quality of this. I wish I had redone it. But there are SGU buses that go to and from the grocery store to campus. Then I would swap to the SGU bus that would take me in the area where my apartment was
They got pretty much all you need!
Question: do they take cards in Grenada or it is always has to be cash when you shop?
They take cards
do they have organic produce?
Nothing is really marketed as "organic" but most of the produce is locally gron (my double u is broken on my laptop lol). And you can tell its local/home-gron. Also, there's alot of produce stands that people sell produce fresh from their yards/neighborhoods
I love your videos I’m over there in a few days!✨
What online stores do you use?
Is there rabbit food there? (Timothy hay and rabbit pellets) TIA!
Yes and yes. But I feel that if they're out of stock it may be awhile befroe getting them. You aren't able to fly rabbits by the way
@@BrittneyKilgore they're not accepted at the Grenadian airport? Or are they not able to fly back into the US?
@@deliagomez4627 Most airlines don't allow rabbits. I'm not sure about Grenada's import laws
❤️ the vlog and you are very gorgeous too, btw😊 I’m from Grenada but I live in NYC so it was nice to see this video.👍🏾
I'm in nyc
And me parents from grenada
@OPTIMI GAMING - That’s awesome.👍🏾 I was actually born there but left at the age of 19.😊
@@pf5658 what part were you from?
@@pf5658 I was there from February 12 to Feb 24
Great vlog!
So amazing
Thanks for sharing, if you have any friends who are gluten sensitive feel free to let them know about my gluten free playlist on my TH-cam channel.
Are their meal plans if you stay on campus?
Unfortunately no meal plans, but definitely lots of daily food options. everything is a la carte and there's multiple private vendors
Is it difficult to find gluten free versions of foods ?
There's many vegan, dairy-free, etc items that are dietary restrictions. I've never looked for things gluten-free but I assume there are options! They may just be higher in price
Wow, so helpful! Thank you.
Kool vlog💯keep it up
Move your camera slowly so that people can have a better view.It makes me dizzy.Love your vlogs.
Thanks. I've been thinking of re-doing this one since it's my most popular one
Exactly!! Out of focus etc. slow down!!
i'm from india which things so expensive?
Iga do have chips ahoy they sell out quickly though it's 16 for the big packet I still buy my favourite chunky chewy ummm
Yeah I've seen the chips. They do sell out pretty quick, but most of my friends who eat chips are able to get them for the most part.
Hello, Do you practice veterinary in Grenada? Is it hard to find employment, as a foreigner? Thank you.
No, i"m just a student. I'm not sure how employment works or visas there
@@BrittneyKilgore It is such a beautiful place.
@@BrittneyKilgore Sorry Sister,
May I ask how much Grenadine were you paying for your apartment? Please. Thank you.
@@kevinthomas2065 Mine was $650 US/month
All most forgot love the vlog😁
Thanks!!
You from grenada?
No
I'm living it Grenada right now
What part?
Lady, you are shifting your camera so fast, you’re hurting my eyes. Stopping within two minutes. Oooh, it hurts!
where is price list madam
It's not a list exactly. The second half of the video I do a price comparison of US prices if converted
Very nice
Are you doing great just want to say hello to you 😊
Good 🙏👍❤️
$5 for 1 jug of water?! I guess I’m drinking tap
Tap water very good quality. I soon gave up buying bottles water when I relocated there some years ago. Tap water is sourced from local springs.
Thanks God I barely eat cereal 😅😂
My home grenada🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩🇬🇩
Everything that is imported is sooo much more expensive 😑 a bag of hot cheetos i found at the gas station were 12 ec ! And the eggs arent ever in the cold isle like the shop next to the movie theater... and milk goes sooo fast
Yep. It's definitely a difference
I still miss it alot and love it there though... my boyfriend/baby daddy actually lives there still :(

@@junegill They sell both i believe
Why’s it so expensive? Surely it should be cheaper lol
Lol i thought the same initially, but no. Some things are a little cheaper though! Like if you buy local produce
Imports.. and lack of competition.
All islands are expensive, imported items, low economies of scale and little competition, basic economics
🤗
Omg slow down with that camera! Just got dizzy!!
Import food u have to pay more money
I live in Westerville St david's
it's Westerhall lee
Lol
I love to watch video types like these awesome video dear. Do check out my grocery haul video . New supporter .
视频太抖了，看的头晕
No offense but American foods are very unhealthy
Everything in moderation and you'll be alright
No they are not. Just choose wisely.
very nice
