CRAZY MARKET SPREE in Honolulu, Hawaii 🇺🇸 (Aloha Stadium Swapmeet)

[@ronaldwat5565]

The stadium was built for football and baseball with movable stands. They didn’t work very well and when the Hawaii Islanders stopped playing they stop using it for baseball. It looks like it is safe but some engineering studies had some high repair estimates. It was closed in 2020 and is being developed into a smaller stadium, sports complex and entertainment area.

[@UilaniMinerVierra]

Just a friendly tip on your next visit to Oahu, swap meet Saturday has more vendors and most times you can find local vendors that make their own pieces! Also checking out the Local Pop Up Events are good to, their you will find local vendors who hand make their own products like my husband who is a wood carver! Most of us would give you better deals then these tourist attractions!

[@charmainegresham5983]

Where is it located?

[@Pitagirl33]

Aloha! Enjoying the videos of my home. The turtle symboliz protection from evil. Also, the Stadium is where the allstar games for the NFL football played at. And the University of Hawaii football team played at. Yes the island is expensive. Hope you enjoyed your time. Hi Gladys!❤

[@AreEff1987]

Crazy coconut prices. Amazing the difference between the markets from there and Thailand or sri lanka. People over there are so nice and friendly, always smiling , not to mention the prices are amazing but back home people are all business, short answers and insane prices

[@rascratcher1912]

I have to agree with you Chris when she said 20 dollars i almost fell out of my chair thats crazy

[@Travelwithchris]

🤣 crazy right

[@mark-jx9uh]

Her attitude wasn't the greatest either so that didn't help

[@patm5594]

Great video. When you add Gladys it's even better. She is so cheerful and nice.

[@RespectAndLoveAndPeaceWins]

Chris & Gladys living it up one more time. Love it - looking forward to seeing more of this. You got some good stuff from the market. Keep it up and soon you guys will be travelling back to Thailand. Hope Andy can come too - bri gotta be able to see some magical Thai beaches too ❤️❤️❤️

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much! I appreciate you!

[@samuelmendoza8585]

I agree 👍👍

[@ArelysLifestyle]

Hawaii is expensive, I remember visiting Maui back in 2016 with the family and everything is so expensive. But glad we went it’s beautiful. A tip we did was buying Hawaiian 🌺 shirts and dresses from thrift stores before we went on vacation. It save us a lot of money. Thank you Chris!!!

[@ebayerr]

Hawaii was expensive when I lived there in the 80's as well. A four-person household had to have everyone working with two jobs in order to make ends meet.

[@salphilly1360]

The switchblades in the beginning looked awesome ! I collect them and they are illegal in alot of states so to see them out in a case being sold was very cool .

[@Joe-vz1ck]

they were recently legalized again along with butterfly and gravity knives 🤙

[@ronaldwat5565]

In public areas Coconut trees are trimmed to prevent them from falling on heads. The immature fruit and flowers are cut off. In people’s backyard watch you head. Coco palms usually rise from a curved base. Some varieties fruit when short and don’t grow too tall too fast.

[@nalanibrewer9887]

22:13 that’s my godmother’s sister’s shop ❤ I grew up in Waikiki then moved to the west side of the island. Now I’m living in Ventura CA. Love your videos

[@bigedhaaheo]

I live here on Oahu, & I myself go to Aloha Stadium Swapmeet when I need souvenirs for my mainland friends. Also on Sundays the inside rows A, B, &C sections 12 to 9 has a lot of locals selling household goods, used Cd's, toys, clothing Items purchased from storage units .

[@zzee8711]

There's no way I would miss your amazing voice and that special look of yours Chris. I'm a big fan. You have a very quality and nice contents videos that I really love. 🙏❤️🤗.

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you for the kind words ❤️🙏🏻

[@theoadelaidabondocabe7261]

[@infinitylyfe3813]

WOW, You're not cheap!! Those vendors prices are way too much!

[@Travelwithchris]

Yeah crazy right!

[@aidawilson971]

Hi Chris ! Love to see you both with Seara on your vlog again . Oh my i can’t believe a whole coconut is worth $12 a peice. Originally from Philippines, moved here in Southern California 17yrs ago, also visited hawaii before wow coconut there is so expensive. Lol that whole coconut is worth $1 in the Philippines. Lol But its Hawaii , and it’s really pretty out there . God bless Chris , ingat ! 😁🇵🇭

[@AreEff1987]

Lol Chris .. your stomach must hate you. You just finished telling us that an acai bowl would suit best over a shaved iced because you feel all the layers of syrup messed your gut up the day before and then you get one with Gladys hahaha I loved that part. Just living your best life . I love it

[@patrickkersh1178]

The Aloha stadium was used for several years for the NFL pro bowl, they stopped using it a few years back

[@ebayerr]

When I lived in Honolulu in the late 80's, the Aloha Stadium flea market was much larger. Instead of just one row of sellers, there would be row after row after row of sellers covering the entire parking lot. We spent about 4 hours there and still didn't see everything.

[@paulmcneill2666]

Nice to see the sun. Watching in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@SkylaLovesMoviesvlogsandtravel]

Amazing videos as always can't wait to see where you go next

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much!

[@juleshart8984]

Of course the Vietnamese lady is so sweet. I’m in Da Nang Vietnam now. The people are so sweet. I love Vietnam

[@Travelwithchris]

Yes they are so kind! Enjoy your time!

[@winterswijk1970]

I really enjoy the video Chris!, 💙👍👊

[@ikateulilo9058]

we remove the coconuts for liability reasons with visitors!!! $12 is wild. look for a tree trimmer in Waikiki most likely they're cutting the coconuts off the trees and if they're cool they'll give it to you for free lol

[@theoadelaidabondocabe7261]

Mr. Chris:Thanks you so much for your new remarkable video today’s from Honolulu, Hawaii to shows these amazing places in January of 2024❤❤❤

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you for the kind words, I wish you a great year

[@lindaakana2774]

The price to live in Hawaii is priceless I’m a native n I feel ur thoughts cz us locals struggle a lot...most folks have their own coconut tree cz it’s ridiculous to buy one.. ur at the best place to shop for sovereign...but shop around cz u can find different bargains...Waikiki is for the tourist stay with local shopping in Ala Moana market place near the beach or Pearl-ridge in Pearl City... I watch ur channel n like what you offer have a safe n memorable vacation Aloha 🌺

[@alexcarter8807]

The old Peal City swap meet was soooo cool. Too bad it's gone.

[@leilareggie1826]

Do not kill the messenger please...Walmart and ABC Stores had well priced Hawaii souvenirs. You can buy after you go home from the ABC Store catalogue.

[@nirvanacrown6516]

Live right up the street in Aiea❤. They used the stadium for a huge Drone show not long ago. Was pretty dope

[@lanaigirl]

Haha holy moly to the $12 coconut. Yeah I’d be sticking to water too. Ridiculous.

[@tonytduong]

oh yeah! something been catching my eyes the time you filming :)!..... ya beards, they so cool!.

[@samuelmendoza8585]

$12 for a coconut, “I think we’re sticking with water” Hilarious Chris 😂

[@alexcarter8807]

I was last back home in 2003 and a coconut like that was like $3 or $4 which was high but buggah was ono. $12 .... eh get 'em at Foodland I think.

[@GhostMaster2024]

Funny I went to that same market and bought a surf board and coconut purse for my daughter. The boards are really cool!

[@michyliving]

Chrissss thanks for yet another cool video 😎 I’m waiting for you to hit all my dream spots , I believe you’ll attract experiences you never even dreamed of cuz of your great vibes. Forever your fan !

[@6mas]

The surfboard souvenirs were beautiful.

[@ChickenWing1995]

Hawaii is pretty expensive. You should’ve bargained like you do in other countries 😃

[@richieriiich]

Great content bro found the page and the vibes are real 🤙🏼💯

[@SquishMasterSInc]

Ahh yes, first show of the day by the best. Thank you guys and Cheers ☕️ good morning.

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much for tuning in!

[@FLUFFYGUY08]

i was just there on the 18th of may.i went to the temprary tattoo place got a whole arm piece. got a couple of other souvi also .cheap place but good stuff will also visit there again.

[@alexcarter8807]

That stadium was used for sports, concerts, etc. I went with some friends to watch a Supercross there, motorcycle racing.

[@JimmyGudz]

Im glad you walked away from that $20 bracelet , thats a absolute rip off . She wont be selling Many if she is rorting people like that. Great vid chris

[@gowithbrideau]

The part where you grab the coconut bikini was too funny! 😂 Have fun in Hawaii, we can’t wait to travel here one day. Thanks for showing up around!

[@Travelwithchris]

So glad you enjoyed it! I hope you make the trip happen soon!

[@kamakanokea]

ABC stores are only in the waikiki area. You can get Holo cards at 7-11 and they are rechargeable.

[@davidbarker6899]

The cost of living is so expensive in Hawaii thats why the coconuts are expensive and there not alot of wild coconut trees that are not on private land to pick from

[@edstravel]

Keep up the great content Bro Chris 😊

[@Travelwithchris]

Thanks brother! Have a great weekend!

[@edstravel]

Welcome 🍵 🙏 Bro Chris 😊

[@robinellison5598]

I agree Chris, those bracelets were to expensive especially for the swap meet.

[@Travelwithchris]

Yeah definitely!

[@irishgip71]

Here we go!!!!! Watching with wife this morning.

[@Travelwithchris]

Yes!!! Thank you brother! Say hi to the wife for me! I'm coming in hot this week, going to be posting almost daily 🙏🏻

[@heidyadriolo4746]

hey Chris and Glades thanks for charing the video off Hawai.what a nice market but it is verry expensiv a coconut 12 dollars is verry expensiv. they growe also in Hawai why are they so expensiv there😮

[@VanCityDLLM]

I think many people miss the point of buying directly from the locals. I could easily buy those souvenirs for the same price or less at the local Walmarts etc but the stories and advice from the local vendors are priceless.

[@vincentv975]

You guys gotta hit up zippys! It's a restaurant chain all over Oahu. Also try the malasadas!

[@Travelwithchris]

I need to try that spot! Thank you!

[@peterdecoussemaker2612]

[@Mark-hu1cb]

I enjoyed the swap meet that one of my things to do there in Hawaii and it’s real close to Pearl Harbor

[@Travelwithchris]

Yes!!!

[@ClarkKent-ic3pb]

Aloha stadium was the u.h college football team's stadium.🏈

[@GUFF_LOOTSEEKER]

While you were there did you see anyone with used clothing, jewelery or nicknacks? Even old vintage shirts that were new?

[@Devildanny666]

Them sunglasses 🕶️ bro give you away just a little bit 😊

[@marymort1296]

Going in October with my 17yr old. Can't wait to go to swap meet

[@StevenLentz09]

I'm not sure if anyone answered you about the stadium, but the stadium used to be the site for the NFL Pro Bowl.

[@reginaldnand2235]

I found the fridge magnets at the swap meet to be the same price at the ABC stores in Waikiki. $12 coconut is a steal, I was charged $15.

[@fadingbrian]

Can't wait to watch this after the football match ⚽😊

[@Travelwithchris]

Yes!! Enjoy the match, but do come back! 🤣 joking bro, have a great weekend!

[@fadingbrian]

That’s so awesome your in Hawaii!! Enjoy Braddah👍🤙

[@mikeg8013]

I live here, and can confirm there is no liquid gold in the coconuts 😂

[@robvisola8890]

Thanks for showing! People in markets in International Places you have been to, seemed to have more charisma/energy/kindness than Hawaii for some reason 🤷

[@Travelwithchris]

Yeah crazy right and they are literally making so much more money than those that I film in developing countries... some people don't realize the blessings they have right in front of them 🙏🏻❤️

[@DsTAiiN8oh8]

​@Travelwithchris yah we make way more but we pay way more taxes upon taxes and cost of living only going up. You need to make close to 100k a year to be happy and not have to worry about money and with a family x2 eggs cost around $6 a dozen gas prices are out of control. Don't be afraid to sit In traffic for an hour to get into town. Not an easy place to live and by the way those people are getting their money to survive id be unhappy too

[@TherealGT-R]

Love watching your videos man! Totally envy you traveling with your loved ones around the world. Hopefully I can bump into you one day

[@sammatsusaka823]

HAWAII coconuts are small, mostly meat inside. Hardly any water. If you want to try? Foodland is a lot cheaper, BUT you got to find a way to open it yourself.

[@ronsta3263]

Sup Chris , the Market are brilliant,bought Hawaiian t shirt with warrior on back

[@alyssadiceflipper5201]

I think the only way to go budget in Hawaii is getting a room with a kitchen!

[@xraydonnie1]

Aloha Stadium was the home of the Hawaiian NCAA football team!

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you! I didn't know that lol

Yes!!! Where exactly do you live bro? Man it would've been cool to link up! I'll be back!

[@zippys5069]

I live pearl city, but Sunday would have been a better day to go because theirs more vendors

[@NNC93]

Just had a look at the cost of living in Hawaii so they say you need to earn in the region of 120,000 dollars a year just to live I steady life there .. then i looked into it a little more it’s $7 for a loaf of bread 😂 It’s $12 for 330ml imported beer. $6 for 12 eggs and $4.5 dollars for a lettuce it’s crazy. And there is other items that are more crazy.

[@Travelwithchris]

That is soooo expensive! Lmao yeah I'm mot making that move 🤣

[@yvettedale6072]

But if they’re getting the wages it’s ok for them but not when your wages are a quarter of that. Feck that stay in cheaper places x

[@samuelmendoza8585]

Chris how do you transport large souvenirs like the ukulele you were looking at? Do you have extra suitcases?

[@samuelmendoza8585]

Hawaii is a melting pot with Asian people.

[@NatalieBee-ci3hi]

[@missymissymiss5192]

Is this on a Wednesday? I went last Saturday and there were two rows of stuff. The inner row had stuff like a garage sale thing.

[@JasonSun-lr3zh]

we also saw some crazy prices at this swap meet back in Nov. I think we paid $20 a coconut which is total BS and I get that they can charge whatever they want but when they take advantage of the tourists trying to experience the local things, it makes me not want to go back.

[@Travelwithchris]

Damn $20!!!! Yeah Hawaii won't see me again for a long long time

[@lorimariek2487]

@@TravelwithchrisBro you come across so offensive with some of your comments. Do better. The cost of living is OUTRAGEOUS in Hawaii and they pay there is low! This is a state that depends on tourists. If you don’t like the price of something, thank them and move on.

[@DsTAiiN8oh8]

This is far from local things. No local people go to that

$20 for a bracelet maybe ask the price before u pull it off? 😂😂😂 and $12 for a coconut is wild

[@Travelwithchris]

Yeah well she had a $10 price above the bracelets and that I was willing to pay, but I guess those were for a different model. Yeah definitely crazy expensive!

Also got to realize Hawaii makes most off there money off tourism like most other places

[@engineeredtruths8935]

​@GregBartlett22 yeah so?!?!?! Most countries he travels are like that but they don't ask fkng 12 DOLLARS FOR A COCONUT. that's insanity.

Cheapest I see is at Foodland. Or free, but hardly any water for the amount of sweat you put into it cracking it open.

The palm trees you see are most likely coconuts but there isn't any coconut on them if the tree is on state property due to liability, years ago a coconut fell and killed a kid and since then they always trim the coconuts off the trees before they get big so that it doesn't happen again or they could get sued

[@Solidified_1]

The coconut are from Hawaii but they are that price because most people from the state will buy it for 10-12 bux especially if they don’t have coconuts in their state if u comparing your prices to Thailand u cant because Hawaii in a state and facing inflation like the rest of America so it’s kinda hard to compare to Thailand or other countries
