    Thank you bro, I’m going to come visit in February and I had no idea that items there are about the same as it is in the US. Thanks for the great content ❤

    Watching from Hampton VA US. Many of the food prices seemed to be in step to what a shopper might pay here in the US. Of course if you really want to save money, you want to go somewhere like Waterside marketplace - particularly if it comes to fresh fruit vegetables meat and poultry ( which you didn't cover ). Your transportation segment adequately answered my questions about getting around in Monrovia. The only thing is how does one charter a taxi from RIA to Monrovia?

    I went to Liberia in August 13,2023 the food prices were pretty reasonable at the time when i and my fiancé went shopping my grocery came to fifty dollars and I came out with five bags of stuff and I rode in a ka ka and on another day on a motor bike what a great experience but I find that the kaka is very reasonable especially when you have to transport your groceries thanks Liberia ❤

    Bro! The prices of those food and household items are great compared to what we pay here in the United States! Obviously, those prices may be too expensive for some Liberians. Thanks bro! Great content as always!

      Those prices seem insane for Liberia ,keep in mind that US has a much bigger economy and people make a lot of more money compared to Liberia so paying $7 for eggs might not be a big deal for you in the States but in Liberia is probably a lot of money to spend just on eggs

    Rice is very expensive compared to America. Old spice also seems expensive and the oil seems about the same, but besides that everything seems slightly cheaper than what I get it for in Pennsylvania, USA. A four hour taxi ride in the US would probably be like $500 👍🏾

    Don't you think buying the food stuffs from the supermarket is the reason why the price is so inflated? next time try going to the local market bro, the food there will be fresher and more organic 😁

    Bafo! I stay in Johannesburg South Africa and those prices are crazy, they are way too steep, why???? I am comparing them to Pick n Pay and Checkers or even Woolies or clicks or Dischem. In one of your videos you did mention that you did stay/live in South Africa and you indicated that cost of living in SA (ZAR) is a bit expensive to Liberia, but now I am starting to doubt your South African experience. Did you really stay in Mzansi bra??? I feel phizzled now! lol
