How would you describe the availability and cost of groceries and household supplies relative to your home country?
Most produce is available but of low quality and often not fresh.
Many local household supplies are hard to come by and usually double the price.
American products are double or triple the price-extorted due to import and customs fees.
Outlets frequently out of stock, no reliable supply.
Produce on average cheaper, fish 1/2 to 1/10 price of U.S.
Meat about same as U.S., maybe slightly cheaper, depending on U.S. city. - Aug 2017
