SHOP LIKE A LOCAL IN PUERTO VALLARTA MEXICO 🇲🇽 (Authentic Mexican market)
PLEASE SUBSCRIBE ➡️ / @morelifediaries
Bienvenidos amigos to another episode of MLD!!!
Like many of you - when we moved to Puerto Vallarta Mexico we asked ourselves "Where do the locals shop". We were fortunate to find this AMAZING market pretty quickly located in Colonia Santa Maria every Saturday. I wouldn't call this a hidden gem (because it's anything but hidden) - but a lot of foreigners that live or travel here don't know about it.
This is where we buy our groceries, our clothes, our house supplies, our lunch and even some health products. Wether you're living here or visiting - this market is definitely worth checking out - even if just for the experience of shopping local.

Firstly, your children are absolutely adorable! It is insane how much we pay here in Canada for Fruit and veggies. And more so here in BC. So whenever we go visit our home in Mazatlan, we just enjoy the local markets. They are fabulous! Love your videos! thanks for putting out the fun and informative content! Wishing your family all the best! 🙂

Thank you so much 😊 Toronto was insane when we left - it was costing us about $50 just to pop in and get a few things. Not to mention the cost of eating out. It’s nice to be able to support locals by shopping and eating locally here - they’ve made that near impossible in Canada with the cost of goods.

@@Morelifediaries totally agree! We have 1 son graduated and in University and the other has 2 more years to graduate high school, or we would be in Mazatlán a lot more! Soon though! 😁😎
Appreciate the look into the cost of food, especially in the market you went to. My wife and I also agree that we will mostly be looking at 2nd hand clothes...as life is different in Mexico. Another great video!

Thank you! Shopping in local markets in Canada is where you find the most expensive produce, here it’s the opposite - go figure?!?!? We prefer to support the locals with most things here in PV and the experience had been amazing. Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
OMG😳😳😳 I am Plant Based and you know in the states I would have not been able to pay rent if I would have payed that amount of those veggies and fruits. Especially Organic. Goodness. Wow!!! I have been researching to leave the states and Puerto Vallarta is at the top.

@@Morelifediaries it’s one of the main reasons I want to move out there. I just really eat fruit and veggies and this would be perfect. Also I am a Vet and I need to be close to the states so I can still be able to fly close to get my medication from the VA. I only get $1400 social security disability each month. Can I survive that? I don’t drink, party etc just live and I want to live like a local and not a crazy apartment.

There are small studio apartments, maybe 1 bedrooms for under $10K Pesos per month ($550 usd) depending on where you're looking so you could definitely make it work.

Nice video. I really miss Puerto Vallarta. It’s become so expensive there. I guess anything is cheap compared to Toronto but if you really want cheap, you should visit Colombia. With beautiful beach towns, like Santa Marta in San Andres, you can really have an amazing time and eat an abundance of fruits and vegetables for a fraction of the price you pay in Puerto Vallarta. Thank you for this wonderful video and enjoy your time in Mexico! Cheers from Yellowknife Northwest Territories 😊

Absolutely agree! My wife and I used to own and operate a resale business outside of Portland in Hillsboro by the airport and frequently went to auctions to find our treasures. So many cool things out there and meeting so many interesting people was the best part! From 70’s swag lamps to a beautiful barber chair from the 50’s - you never know.

I live in the states the way they live in Mexico ! I eat mostly local produce , I shop used clothing and everything else , I try to keep my foot print small , I try not to buy things that end up in the planet forever ( plastics ) I don’t shop at big box, I don’t buy “things” and I eat a lot of produce . Except for not liking spicy 🌶️ looks like Mexico may be a good fit for me ? I wonder when the Trump banner will sell …. I guess Mexicans won’t want to spend money on that after all the money they spent paying for the wall 😉😉

Seems like it would be. It's definitely helped us reduce our "things" and enjoy the things we love (playas, good food, organic fruits, lots of sun). Life is simple, safe and affordable in most places outside the USA and Canada.
Esta bien hacerle propaganda a Puerto Vallarta,pero no creo que hacer un video sobre mercados económicos sea lo correcto… Están impulsando a más extranjeros a acudir a este tipo de mercados los cuales son dirigidos hacia la comunidad Vallartense,si más turistas lo visitan,es probable que los precios se eleven y hasta exageren,provocando que una parte de la población deje de considerar este lugar como accesible.
