Come grocery shopping with me in Panama! 🇵🇦🛒
Today I'm taking you along for a REAL grocery-shopping day here in Panama. I stopped at three different stores because each one has something I like:
🛒 Price Smart — where I do most of my bulk shopping
🛒 Extra Market — one of the stores I find to be more affordable
🥩 Riba Smith — where I usually buy our meat because I really like the freshness
I'm showing you ALL of my groceries, the prices, and my grand total so you can see exactly what I spent.
And I want to hear from YOU! 👇🏽
Do you think I'm spending too much on groceries? Is what I'm paying comparable to what you spend in the United States?
Leave me a comment and tell me what you think!
After grocery shopping, I came home and did my normal meat prep — cleaning and seasoning everything, then putting it into freezer bags. This makes cooking during the week so much easier because I can simply pull out what I want to eat.
And because I was completely exhausted after all that grocery shopping and meal prep... hubby and I decided to have a little date night!
We headed over to Bocas City, a cute little Caribbean food truck just a few minutes from our home in Brisas del Golf. Our driver actually recommended it to us, and we decided to give it a try.
The evening was beautiful — cool weather, a nice breeze, good food, and quality time with hubby. ❤️
So this vlog is a little bit of everything: grocery shopping, prices in Panama, food prep, everyday life, and a Caribbean date night!

Do you think my grocery total was too much, or is it comparable to what you would spend in the States?

After seeing EVERYTHING I bought and the prices at Price Smart, Extra Market and Riba Smith...
Do you think I spent too much on groceries?
🇵🇦 Is this comparable to what you would spend in the States?
Tell me where you're watching from and what you think your grocery total would have been for the same type of haul!
And did you enjoy our little Caribbean date night with hubby? ❤️
I want to hear from you! 👇🏽
I agree with you regarding making your own coffee cream.
start practicing to make your own coffee cream, which will be much more healthier. I’ve been using a portion of half-and-half, my favorite sweetener is agave syrup and a tiny bit of brown sugar and vanilla extract.
I boil it lightly for it to thicken. then I let it cool and place it in a glass jar for the refrigerator. You may have to try it out at least 1 to 2 times before you get the right balance to have a healthier coffee cream without all the preservatives and gums that are in those premade coffee creamers.
Thanks for sharing that seafood Restaurant that you and your husband went to after the day of grocery shopping. I need to check out that restaurant. Thanks for sharing.
Make it a great day.
