Grocery prices in San Juan del Sur

Grocery prices in San Juan del Sur depend mostly on one thing: whether the product is Nicaraguan or imported. Local staples — rice, beans, eggs, tortillas, coffee, plantains — are inexpensive; imported brands often cost as much as at home, or more. Below is a real basket with the price Blink charges today, delivered.

Delivery from C$184 in town and C$276 to the outer beaches. Every fee is agreed before we set off.

How Blink sets its prices

  • Every price in the Blink store is a Nicaraguan supermarket shelf price plus 15%, rounded to the nearest fifty centavos. That margin is how the shopping gets done and brought to you.
  • The shelf was last surveyed on 19 August 2026. Supermarket offers are passed on for 14 days after a survey, then prices go back to the regular shelf figure until the next one.
  • Delivery is added once per order, not per item: C$184 in town and C$276 to the outer beaches.

What is cheap and what is not

  • Inexpensive: rice, red beans, eggs, tortillas, plantains, local fruit and vegetables, Nicaraguan coffee, rum and beer.
  • Middling: bread, milk, chicken, cooking oil, household basics.
  • Expensive: imported cheese, breakfast cereals, wine, foreign snacks and anything that arrived on a ship.

Keeping the bill down

  • Cook with local staples and buy the Nicaraguan brand where there is one.
  • Buy drinking water by the gallon or the case, and ice in big bags, rather than small bottles one at a time.
  • Shop once for several days: one delivery fee instead of one a night.
