Grocery SHOPPING 😱 in MALAYSIA 🇲🇾 | Is it CHEAP or EXPENSIVE?

#familytravel #malaysia #groceryshopping
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, offers a delightful shopping experience that has long been heralded as an affordable haven for families and digital nomads alike. The bustling city is a paradise for those seeking a balance between modernity and culture, with its vibrant markets, high-end malls, and diverse range of goods.
In recent times, the cost of living all over the world has been on a steady rise, leaving everyone struggling to make ends meet. The inflationary pressures have led to challenges in maintaining a comfortable lifestyle, forcing some to reevaluate their financial priorities. For some families, this growing financial strain has prompted unconventional decisions, such as quitting traditional jobs to embark on full-time travel with their children.
And we comfortably fall in that category. One compelling reason for families to embrace a nomadic lifestyle is the pursuit of value for their hard-earned dollars. By exploring regions where the cost of living is more accommodating, families can stretch their budgets further and provide enriching experiences for their children.
Today we explore 3 popular supermarkets in Malaysia - Jaya Grocer, Village Grocer & MR. DIY. Come along with us for this exciting shopping experience.
We have done a similar cost of living video for Sydney. Please watch below if you are interested.

Lol, it's very rare, happened only once while we were in Malaysia. Interestingly we captured it hehe

[@raymondng18]

Generally prices in Jaya Grocer are a tad higher than Other local supermarkets/hypermarket like Aeon, Lotus’s, Giant etc

[@tinydetour]

We have tried aeon too..very good ....have to check out the other ones

[@anonymous-uq3fv]

Dont go grocery shopping mall because its a bit expensive..better u go to tesco,econsave,aeon mall nearest u to get cheapest spend

[@tinydetour]

Yeah we did it in AEON mall once. But since we live around MK, we would usually do it in either of these, mainly due to the distance ... but we will check out the others too, thanks for the tip :)
