Living in Ghana now has made me understand the value of money even more, because now I know first hand how inflation affects citizens on "THEIR" budget, not my western mindset. Now I'm bargaining with prices and services like a local. Seriously, Ghana must grow more of their own food, and citizens must buy more local goods. Let's start there.
It's the govt that should get serious. The fooling is too much. Just ban/reduce the import of rice, tomatoes, sugar, chicken, stuff we can produce here locally. That one too we can't do? Nigeria has banned the import of rice, and there's huge patronage for Nigeria rice. We should go beyond appeals for Ghanaians to buy made in Ghana stuff. Ban/reduce imports and support local production. Oh
I use to shop here every Saturday when I lived in Ghana. The gov't needs to work on the agriculture sector. For those saying it's cheap because of the conversion, the prices are not cheap for the average Ghanaian. Agbogbloshie market is like the wholesale for the neighborhood grocery shops. You can imagine their prices. For the average Ghanaian, this is unsustainable.
Food prices are up in the western world.we have to go back to agriculture.l felt pity for my sister loading the food in the big basin.hope you tip her well
Accra is gradually becoming a city for the rich and mid class… its developing so fast making cost of living quite high. Accra is turning into New York, london and many other expected cities. Eventually people will start moving to other regions for survival. Its just a matter of time unfortunately.
After several months of your absence from Ghana 🇬🇭 I'm happy to see you and Aisha again shopping around one of the Ghana 🇬🇭 😀 market. Keep it up with Aisha. From Washington DC with love ❤️ 😍
Well in Ghana shop attendants, Mobile money vendors, waiters and security officers often earn less $55 a month. So you have to take the Amount earned in a month into consideration and see how much you can buy whiles living on that Salary.
Such an educational video. Here in the US, everything is crazy expensive as well. I always enjoy your videos, but these kinds are always my favorites with you and Aisha visiting the markets and making meals after. The intro music confused me as I thought it was Lady Tatiana Haina collaborating with you lol. Which would be awesome just saying. Enjoy your week ladies and crew. 😎🙏🙏😎
0:34 to 0:53 crazy loosened… stay cool… 1:36 super nice looking tomatoes… 12:27 I use to eat those my self every time I cook something ( here we call it Jambó ) , very cool a extra veggie in my diet, + in Curaçao is very popular veggie… 20:48 to 21:19 ( crazy ( like it )). 22:06… we’ll if the production stay stady no problem.
Food is still reasonably priced in Africa tbh.The price of everything you bought is just for the meat here in england.l guess the local income is pretty low as well....Thanks.
I loved this episode, Jasmine! Thanks! It was very interesting to see how the market has been affected. Hopefully, with changes coming, things move back in the right direction quickly.
The market is full of life. I love it. It reminds me of markets in Jamaica. Things are very expensive everywhere. Things are cheap in Ghana compared to New York. I wish I could get prices like that here. Anyway, I understand that in America one makes more money than Ghana. But food is still too expensive.
Excellent video that shows us all one needs to know about shopping in a local Ghanaian market. Thanks for giving us a practical idea of what the cost of living is beginning to look like in Ghana. Kudos Jasmine and thanks for sharing
Humm prices has really gone up is very difficult for people with no or low income to survive or eat a decent meal or eat 3 or 3 time daily Lots of the people depend on their relatives abroad if they are lucky to have families abroad. Aye Wala is the same price as a pound of fresh goat meat?😃😃👍🏾❤️
Hi Jasy 😄, I enjoyed shopping with you, food stuff is really on the high side now, cooking oil is a no go area , plantain is cheap even here in Nigeria, bulk buying is usually the best, tnx dear.
Well Jasmine it's not only in Ghana it's in the world, but I think there are still cheaper in my eyes. Also, some of those persons had no need to raise there prices especially if they do there own farming most just follow.
Another great vid. You know times are tough when West African Aunties are complaining about the price of food. Aisha was in her element at the market, moving and haggling. Within Aisha's cute smile beats the heart and soul of a West African Auntie. LOL I hope you Mariam well for carrying all your items? It looked heavy.
Another wonderful video Jasmine! Insightful and masterfully done as always. Quite incredible how much everything and everywhere now have been touched by the cost of living crisis.
This video really opened my eyes. I am being cheated at DOME market, the tomatoes I buy for 40 cedis in the market here is not even up to 20 pieces. I need to go to makola markets. Sometimes these sellers notice you’re not Ghanaian and they increase the prices. Same thing with buying of sanitary pad the other day, this lady sold me pad for 30 cedis and it cost about 15 cedis or 10 when I later bought at the mall. It’s not really good what some of these sellers do to foreigners who don’t speak their language.
@@JasmineAmaa I’ll try to go with a neighbor one of these days because I spend so much and I end up not getting value for my money. Thank you so much for your suggestion ☺️🙏
All those groceries will cost like $400in New York African market here. But I also understand the prices they have in there does not benefit the average Ghanaian. The yam in African market you pay $20 for that one ☝️ yam.
Omg, I live in the United States and I wish we had prices like that for our produce and meats! Those prices would be amazing over here! By the way I love your channel ❤
Compare to prices of food in My country Liberia 🇱🇷, this is wayyyyy cheap! The only that might be cheaper in Liberia is the palm oil. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
We’ll of course it’s cheap their earning in the cedi currency. Food is expensive here in the US because they’re selling it in USD and that’s what we earn lol
@@veraaddoyobo8482 . It’s only the palm oil that’s better . Apart from that everything else is comparatively cheap in Sunyani. I was shocked of prices of oil and palm oil in Sunyani.
Thank you Queen, For taking us shopping 😊 I don't think you can compare food prices to that in USA. 🤔 Here there is so much free food. Also the government gives away tons of food benefits especially to families with children. Also most people work so hard for very little. I can't help from worrying about my in-laws in Kumasi and how well they are fairing. 😢 So sad Queen how many cedi to USA dollar How much for goat me. The last time I was there it was 8 ced a lb. I think🤔 Ashia is a great shopper. I miss Ghana and the great food. Had lots of laughs today. Thanks Queen PeAcE
Government gives food stamps to families with low income please emphasize on that because Ghanaians will think once you have children, you get free benefits in America is NO. I'm a registered nurse in Texas and based on my income I don't qualify for any free benefits.
@@JasmineAmaa WoW I remember at one visit it was 1 dollar on a dollar My last visit 2018 I think it was around 7 Goat is a good price but my in-laws eat a lot of dry fish. I use to go to the Wednesday market and buy them lots of meat Thank you Queen
Yes it is very true that in US they give free food but not to everyone that qualifies to get it, also the don't give free yam tilipia both salted and fresh the kind of african food is not given free here, if you want dried fish you need to buy it yourself, at this time a box of yam is sold at 100.00$ . But Jas thanks very much for taking us through the maket, the prices compared to here in US is wayyy better.than u.
That’s actually a great 😊 price for all those items, if it was in the 🇺🇸 one can pay close to $200…with the meat and all. Love 💕 the video and you guys looking beautiful as always…i never get enough of seeing Aisha smile such a blissful soul to be around with 😊.
@@vida7993 I know the difference between North American dollars and Ghanaian cedis. Some African countries cost of living are is as much as the US or the western world. I I am a Gambian living in the USA and cost of living there is as much as here in the 🇺🇸…so I can definitely see the difference. For that much grocery in The Gambia, I will definitely cost more than that cause family is over there and my friends visit all the time.
@@lmroselle I lived in Georgia, lived in Arizona, lived in NY, lived in Michigan, lived in California n back in Michigan it’s all the same 🇺🇸 right…why the difference in cost of living? So is the difference in cost of living in the whole African continent ✌🏾.
@@mkoly7203 my apologies if I offended anyone, that was not my intention at all. I was just stating that all that the lovely Ms. AMA brought home would be the price that I stated at a minimum. I understand the income disparity. I as one from the diaspora have to weight the pro and the cons about relocating. That was all I was stating.
Great video. I hope the lady carrying your purchases was paid well. I'm sure that tub was getting heavy! And do they just walk around and wait for someone to hire them? I think that type of work is interesting. You should do a video on it.
Most of those ladies are from the 'poorer' northern parts of Ghana which has only one planting season. So when there're no rains, they come down south to work as head porters etc. They are able to maneuver wares through our crowded, unpaved markets
New sub here, those prices are still cheaper than the UK 🙌🏿i wish i was there as a Man who is Vegan/Plant based every Vegetable you brought i eat, its so expensive in the West. Okara here is about£ 2.81p /$3 just for a handful in most places🙈 i remember when i was in Gambia there prices are slightly cheaper than Ghana. Love your video's my Sister👸🏿
I love the consistency Ama. The prices don't seem that bad compared to what we are paying for the same items over here in the Netherlands. I enjoyed the overall vibe of the sellers in the market, it makes you forget you are spending 😅. Thank you for another joyful video🙏 Is there a fixed price paid to the porters or they tell you in advance how much you have to pay them?
Well in Ghana shop attendants, Mobile money vendors, waiters and security officers often earn less $55 a month. So you have to take the Amount earned in a month into consideration and see how much you can buy whiles living on that Salary.
My dear Jasmin, I heard that you want to keep your fresh cabbage in the frizzer but I'm not sure if you are aware of the fact that, cabbage can last for a long time in the fridge, it can last from two to three months in your fridge, take care,I really enjoyed your videos a lot and I have been following from canada, since you move from Australia to ghana, (enjoy your life oo, na onipa nso y3d3n, enjoy your life oo, na de3 na 3mmaa da, enjoy your life oo na de3 3b3si biara y3 !) please take care!
Why do u have to go that far from tema to agbogbloshi for food stuff , i hope the price will worth the trip . Kind of make sense cause a friend told me they go there at night hours , at a time the traders want to let go by droping the prices so they can quickly sell and bounce . So the timing is very strategic . I will rather later in the evening than early morning cause in the morning they got the whole day to nyaaga on the prices but in evening hours they got to go and must get rid of the perishable like tomattoes
It's the same prices we buy here. I live in United States. My wife and I even did some groceries yesterday. It's the same. I personally don't see anything wrong with the prices
Jasmine dear, what up? You know in this video, you and Aisha bought those little curry packets at the market, and I would like a picture of it if possible because that particular curry powder is so tasty and give a great aroma to the food. The one I have is dismissed longtime ago and I don’t even remember the name, so when I saw it in the video I figured you could hook me up with the picture, that way I can ask somebody to buy for me when they are coming to the States😂
Hmmm... These foods are still almost FREE to those of us living in USA!! Here, 1 Roma tomato on avg is .26cents. You guys are getting a whole barrel for under $4usd...!! This video is making me hungry!
Wow!!!!!!!! Everything you bought is like $50. The same stuff in America will be close to $1000. I understand that both are two totally different economies but if you live in a Western country, Ghana is VERY CHEAP! However, I also understand $50 is ALOT for the average Ghanaian making a living in Ghana. Nice video!
You both are cute together, I miss Alisha, everything is going up even in the US! All that y’all bought, here in the US it will be much more then then!
I knew the prices were high. It's like tripled since March. But same in USA too. Problem is my family back home has no income. I try to help when I can but lately even I cannot
Hello lady's Aisha and Jasmine is so nice to see you lovely ladies. Hummmm the cost of living in Ghana 🇬🇭 is very bad.Here in the UK 🇬🇧 food is expensive 😑 but not as bad as Ghana.And also people rely on food banks.The government also help on cost of living.Thanks for sharing.

That's exactly what will benefit our country

We should go beyond appeals for Ghanaians to buy made in Ghana stuff. Ban/reduce imports and support local production. Oh
True, and the mindset of the citizenry must change too, because I have to search for local rice, because the citizenry mostly want foriegn rice.
Hey, Jasmine you should do a day in the life video of the lady who carried the goods for you. Hope you payed her well, those goods seemed very heavy.
Will see if i can. Yes Alwayss pay well x
That's a very hard working...I think that was too many things for one person to carry

I just bought one liter of Palm oil last week at the African store in Canada and I paid $9 CDN.
YES I LOVE SHOPPING AT AGBLOGBLOSHIE BECAUSEIS LIKE WHOLE SALE MARKET
Hmmm... These foods are still almost FREE to those of us living in USA!! Here, 1 Roma tomato on avg is .26cents. You guys are getting a whole barrel for under $4usd...!!
This video is making me hungry!
Some of the prices are even cheaper there. Whole Markel for 81cents , wow that's chesp
Wow!!!!!!!! Everything you bought is like $50. The same stuff in America will be close to $1000. I understand that both are two totally different economies but if you live in a Western country, Ghana is VERY CHEAP! However, I also understand $50 is ALOT for the average Ghanaian making a living in Ghana. Nice video!
Exactly ❤️❤️
Mind you a graduate under national youth employment earns 700 gh which is almost equivalent to $50 a month
You both are cute together, I miss Alisha, everything is going up even in the US! All that y’all bought, here in the US it will be much more then then!
This is gd to watch
Glad u enjoyed it 🥰

100% I agree
Things are expensive but it is all the earth but look after us .We will eat always
I knew the prices were high. It's like tripled since March. But same in USA too. Problem is my family back home has no income. I try to help when I can but lately even I cannot
How do they survive without income?
😑
Now this is what devaluation mean. The currency is cheap. This is a lot of food for very little US dollars.
Food prices are expensive in America too. I can still afford it so far. I want to decrease carbs and pork for health reasons.
I'm big fan your I'm Pakistan 🇵🇰 i like your recipe's
Hello lady's Aisha and Jasmine is so nice to see you lovely ladies. Hummmm the cost of living in Ghana 🇬🇭 is very bad.Here in the UK 🇬🇧 food is expensive 😑 but not as bad as Ghana.And also people rely on food banks.The government also help on cost of living.Thanks for sharing.
Anytime ❤️
