While traveling, we enjoy going into grocery stores and checking out the kinds of food available and their prices. Today on St. Kitts we encountered one of the larger grocery stores we've seen on any of the Caribbean islands. With about eight short aisles, it would definitely be considered a supermarket on St. Kitts.
I found it interesting to check out how much it would cost us to buy food if we were staying on the island for a few months. Well...it's like G says: we can afford to stay there or eat there, but not both.
These prices are in Eastern Caribbean (EC) dollars. The current exchange rate is about US $1= EC $2.70. The second photo shows the price in US dollars.
This would cost about $3.00 at home.
