My twelfth and final day in Kerala, India continued in Kozhikode, where I went all-out on a fun challenge! Come along with me as I go on a 5000 rupee shopping spree challenge at Kozhikode Koyenco Bazaar in Kerala, India!
I began my afternoon at Koyenco Bazaar. I had 5,000 rupees, which is about $66 USD. I wanted to buy some textiles, food, and souvenirs. Ebbin and I made it to S.M. Street, where you can buy sweets, dresses, shoes, food, baked items, and more. I bought a bag of spicy snack mix for 100 rupees/$1.33 USD.
The snack mix was crunchy and coated in a delicious masala. Then, we went to a halwa shop called Galaxy Sweets.
They looked amazing and came in lots of different colors. I tried a few different varieties including chili halwa, a tender coconut halwa, a gummy dried fruit halwa, jackfruit halwa, and Kozhikode halwa. I bought a kilo of honey halwa for240 rupees/$3.19 USD.
Then, we came across some Calicut paintings, including one of a Kathakali performer, which I bought for my assistant for 400 rupees/$5.31 USD. Then, we visited a textile shop. There, I bought two traditional white head cloths with a black border for 350 rupees/$4.64 USD there.
We found a handicrafts shop where everything looked pricier. They had carved elephants, carvings of gods, and a beautiful rosewood elephant that would have cost me 2500/$33.18 USD, which would have only left me with 1,000 rupees. I decided to wait to see what other stuff would have cost me before getting it.
We entered a building where they had lots of wooden elephants, camels, panthers, and more. The panther was 35,000 rupees/$464.48 USD, and I found a nice sculpture of a mother elephant and her baby for 2,700 rupees/$35.83 USD. Nothing was my style, so we moved on to a bookshop, where I bought two awesome maps of India and Kerala for 30 rupees each/$0.40 USD. It took me two weeks to find some good maps!
Next, we visited a Kalanthan’s E.P.K. Fruit Centre, where I got a mixed pineapple/orange juice for just 50 rupees/$0.66 USD. It was so pure and refreshing, I downed it in one gulp and got another! There, I spent 180 rupees/$2.39 USD, total.
Then, we saw a memorial to the most famous travel writer from Kerala. It included large plates of his writings and scenes from his travels. It was a big hangout spot with lots of seating. Then, we headed to Swamy & Sons Coffee Dealers, where I bought a kilo of their best coffee beans for 600 rupees/$7.96 USD. They smelled like the best espresso of my life! The woman there ground them and packaged them up for me. It smelled like I was on a coffee plantation!
Then, we went inside a jewelry shop after taking off our shoes at the door. They had silver and gold. I wanted to find something for my daughters. I bought some beautiful silver anklets for 2250 rupees/$29.86 USD.
Then, I went to get a haircut! I couldn’t wait to have a massage and get rid of my beard. A haircut and shave there costs 200 rupees/$2.65 USD, while a head massage costs 150 rupees/$1.99 USD. He charged another 50 for the wash, so it came to 400 rupees/$5.31 USD total. I felt super refreshed afterward!
Even with everything I spent, I still didn’t spend the entire 5,000 rupees. Of my roughly $66 limit, I only spent 4580 rupees/$60 USD!

From Kerala🌴🌴🌴
3:31 that fan has no cover 😵 I was tensed when you were moving towards it
He was looking for a haircut...that would be a bargain
Wow! The silver anklet is so beautiful! I am sure that she loved it! 😍I should get one for me soon!
Thank you for the shopping video with prices!🤑 Do more like this in your future travels!
Rs 100 for the mixture was a little too much 😅
@_Enigmatic_Bloke_ Not more than a kilo for sure.
@@jeffreyvarghese3834 not so costly!! They cost that much and definitely looks abt 400 to 500 g. Which a branded one may be abt 250rs+
@@zoozoo64 I don't mean to sound like an expert but I'm a Keralite and haven't paid that kind of money for mixture in any part of India for that quantity. It could cost more in an Indian store in the US though.
I'm a mixture addict. Believe me a mixture packet of that size will definitely cost atleast a 100 rupees. Here in my place 100gm of mixture costs 20 rupees.
@@amalkumar2775 Ok 😳
My most favorite is wheat,dry fruit halwa just makes my mouth drool everytime I think of it. I just finished having 250 g of wheat halwa it was extremely delicious. Two days ago something very very sad happened in kerala a 15 year old hungry pregnant elephant was fed a pine apple stuffed with explosive crackers and unfortunately it ate it and while chewing the fruit exploded in its mouth, the worst part it suffered the pain for three days before dieing still being injured it did not inflict harm to anybody😭😭😭
4:18 I miss that kurkure in the lockdown😭😭😭😭
Me too buddy I'm also a Kurkure Lover
David is probably the nicest person I have seen on CZcams.

We indians spend 5k in 15 days and even more.....it's not that we are poor but we save too much don't know why😁.......a lot of people have 100k dollars in their savings plus property but just spend 200 rs per day😀India is great.....

Eagerly waiting for your homemade panipuri cooking n chaat video with your dad
kozikoden halva soo nice
You Should ask them for Discounts 😁
David, this is a lovely video! I love how you capture the experiences. I don't know if you're still in Kerala, but if you are, try to visit a toddy shop. You'll have to ask around for the good ones. Not only will you get to savor toddy (a local coconut-based liquor with a potency similar to beer), the food you get there is beyond amazing. I could suggest places in Cochin, but I'm not too familiar with North Kerala. Anyway, do enjoy your stay, and I will continue living vicariously through your videos!
That xiome ringtone from the background 😂 made people near me search their pockets
A new subscriber 👍🏻... love your videos... I am from North east India Manipur and wish to see you there soon❤️♥️

Hi David, we are Australians and me and wife love your show, how much is your tshirt,? We never been to India need to know more place for eat outs. Awesome show god bless
Manoj badal and Renu badal
Manoj, I looked at your name and the statement that you never visited India. Bit strange. You and your wife have original Indian names, means you are less likely to be a third or 4th generation Indian origin. Have a good day.
@@PARTHASARATHISAMANTARAY Hi mate we are fijians born Indians and we are 4th we are four generation Indian from the British time that why our names are Indian yes my grade grade grand father was from Indian rutak I guess, Google history of Fiji you will understand we were under England for many years my dad and them had British passports ,yeh we love your program mate thanks for ask you learn something today some Indian were taken to so many place for them to work in sugar cane fields.
Regards Manoj
you have directly insulted as by saying that do you know that we are third generation Australian Indian then our names will be Indian, why please learn history not just food, in years ago Indian came to Australia to work in banana plantation and so many stayed back we have a whole city of them Singh's and badal all are Punjabi s
oh its a new video
