Most people that live on St. John need to go to St. Thomas at least once a month to stock up on food and supplies. We bring a large cooler packed with ice to put our perishable items in that. We spend between $600-$700 each trip but it lasts us the entire month. I divide the meat into portions that we will use and put them all into freezer bags and we use as needed.
We shop at Kmart, Cost U Less, Home Depot and Pricesmart. The car barge is $50 round trip and if we are on the 8:30 or 9 o'clock barge we can usually make it back on the 1.
As you can see, Shane looks thrilled!

This is what our car looks like. The car is so packed there really is NO room to move.
