Questions

Question: Why did the Princess not have money with her at the market? She could easily disguise herself as a lower-class person who has some amount of money with her, like the other shoppers.

Answer: Despite being a princess, Jasmine likely did not have access to money. Royals are known to never carry cash in their possession. Everything in Jasmine's life is controlled, and whatever she needs or wants is provided. She is young, naïve, and has been so pampered and sheltered from the real world that she'd probably never consider how currency works.
