As a middle class Nicaraguan I can tell you that these are not the places that most people frequent when buying groceries and appliances 😅 I buy food at MaxiPali the cheapest supermarket, and cheeses and greens at the street market, also Facebook marketplace here is a really popular and a good alternative to look for appliances that are cheaper than sinsa and all busnisses have delivery and the option to pay with bank transactions. It was awesome to see you guys exploring these places and prices!

Hi jof410, thanks so much for watching and sharing your experience with us. You've confirmed what we suspected that that most people wouldn't use these places to shop. We certainly didn't when we were living in Nicaragua either, mucha plata! We also bought greens and cheese from street markets and street vendors.

We got the foreigner prices at the market. Next time, we will stick to Maxi Pali. If you are a foreigner, go to the Maxi Pali or take a local you trust to the market.

The prices are not very low at the clothing store compared to where i live in America. The food is much cheaper though. Price Smart looks like a Costco, looks identical. Sinsa looks identical to Home Depot or Lowes. They got it very similar offerings in Managua.

Glad to hear you liked the video! Yes, we were surprised at Galerias as well, we are also definitely Pricesmart sort of people! That's interesting about Portugal. What is fascinating about Nicaragua is that there have been no mandated guidelines/lockdowns from the government yet businesses and the community have taken matters into their own hands. I'm glad we're not the only Aussies who were surprised at insta view fridges!

Hi Salvador, thanks for the suggestion. There is certainly less infrastructure on the Atlantic coast and we are equivocating on venturing up there as it is a long bus ride. We will show Popoyo beach in a month or so, which is on the Pacific coast but further away than SJDS. It was a lot more secluded and quiet but less infrastructure than SJDS.

I could say that you should go to the very famous "Mercado Oriental", but that's not a place for gringos hahaha, i don't want to feel guilty if you guys get robbed there. To be fair, i've heard that nowadays it's not as bad as it used to be 10 years ago, but the best is not to go without a local friend to guide you.

I love my country of Nicaragua very much but unfortunately with the socio political issues right now and the coming election in November of 2021, things don't look good at all. I would like to buy some property in Managua but I'm going to wait until after the election to see "el panorama de Nicaragua." My advise to everyone who wants to move to buy a property in Nicaragua is to wait to see what the near future would brings to this beautiful land. What do you guys think?

Hi J, we would always recommend for people to do their own due diligence when it comes to purchasing in Nicaragua. We also recommend for people thinking of buying in Nicaragua to first live here and make sure it is a good fit. All the best with your decision.

¡Creo que tuvimos suerte! Sin embargo, la gente de SINSA fue muy amable al respecto e incluso posó para las fotos.

Just do not visit Molino Cafe Galerias Santo Domingo and restaurants Don Bicha plaza Eclipse Managua. Staff problem. Unless you want to be robbed

Hi E-man, what crimes are you referring to? Nicaragua is one of the safest countries in Central America to live in.

Hi Bryan, thanks for watching. We find the masks useful for protecting from that hot Nicaraguan sun. Plenty of utlity there! 😉
