HA HA...now this makes me chuckle...sounds like the "Negril-residents" are playing the "woe is me" game with you. I've shopped in MANY different places & just as it can be back in North America or the UK etc....it depends on the store and the item...some places are cheaper for some things...some places more expensive for other items. I know some Jamaican friends that come into Negril for items they find cheaper here and other times we'll all go to nearby towns for certain products. But, for the most part...Negril residents do most of their shopping here as the prices aren't that significantly different.

I have containers....use them....but living in Negril I also use ziplock bags with NO issue! TT...you don't need to be lugging plastic containers around.
