Current Grocery Prices in Alaska- Spend the Day with me in Anchorage
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 มิ.ย. 2024
- Almost a year ago, I put together a price comparison of various groceries in Alaska. Well, I am at it again but this time, I included a wider array of stores and am comparing the prices to the lower 48. So, spend the day with me in Anchorage, and surprising @AlaskaCuttheCord to say, "Thank you!" in person.

I am 70 years old. Through your eyes ,you allow me to see a part of the world I could never see. Thank you very much. Life is good. 😅
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Your not old. You can go to Alaska yourself
I have too many health problems. Have to keep close to medical help close.
Their are many TH-cam channels with Alaskans in them this is not the only one
@@johnboggan4390 alaska is a nightmare for medical - lots of pure quacks
Driving with you through the roads of Alaska is something I never thought I could experience. Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for taking is along to town and having us explore with you! So happy to be here. Coral
I'm glad your FORD did not break down out there. The grocery stores in AK are price gouging you on many items. However a lot of it is due to shipping. We pay 1.10 -1.99 for dozen eggs in the midwest. Ground beef 4.50-5.50 a lb. is average. Milk is 3-4$ a gallon. When I go to TX, food is about the same but more driving. I been to Alaska many times, always armed. Them bears get hungry too. Smoked Salmon. Moose jerky. Bear stew can be delicious. Let's get cooking.
Im 71 now n living in Maryland but lived in Anchorage for 20 years back 1970- 1990 n miss living there, i worked as an RN in the Burn Unit n as a flight nurse. I got to more than 40 towns through out the state. Alaska was so different back then. Like only one small movie theater, just afew grocery stores,only 3 thrift shops, no large stores like Costco.I did alot of cross-country skiing n came close to many wild animals such as moose, bears, eagles n was never afraid. Animals know fear so need to be calm. I could write a book on all the experiences i had. I did keep a long journal. I miss Alaska.
I visited the burn unit at PAMC and the suffering, trauma, and slow healing process was unreal.
Nice video. 😍 love how you are so independent. Will be 68 in 3 weeks. Love living alone. No kids too. Love freedom. Never owned a 🚙 car. Live in the sunshine state. Went to Alaska in 2004 on a cruise. Loved it. Juneau. Sitka. Tracy arm. And saw some glaciers. Beautiful Alaska. Lived in California at the time. We left from San Francisco. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Just found your channel. Lived in Anchorage since Dec 1989. Traveled the whole state when I worked, now sit in basement and watch TH-cam.
Thank you Alone for you very positive comments. We are always willing to help. Glad that everything worked out! It's expensive living here for sure😭
"I have some extra parts... hopefully I don't need 'em" Oh, and also, I live in the middle of NOWHERE so.... lifting a small prayer about that last part. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🙏🙏🙏
I just found your channel. I'm digging it. I wish I could walk away from everything in this stressful world and live free like you. I already live alone with my dog. I truly enjoy being alone probably more than is normal. I've always dreamed of my own cabin away from the rest of the world. I'm not sure I'm ready but I'm gonna enjoy your videos. Thank you so much ❤
I'm too busy working for the man, so to speak, I work for the post office. Once I get secure in the job, I might consider a transfer to some far away place, maybe Alaska, maybe some place warmer, 😁. For now, I live vicariously through your videos and I enjoy it. ❤
We were in Alaska in July last year. Absolutely beautiful. It’s so nice to recognize a lot of the sights you show along Richardson Highway. We did the train ride from Anchorage to Seward and back. We had a gorgeous sunny day. So much beauty. I highly recommend that train excursion. We had rented a van and then drove from Anchorage to Homer, spent some time there and then on to Seward. After spending time in Seward, we headed to Denali National Park. From there we headed to Fairbanks. There we did a river cruise on the Sternwheeler. Also on to North Pole, on to Tok and a side trip to Chicken, and then Valdez. We spent the day on a boat in Prince William Sound. We also were in Palmer and Wasilla. So much beauty. Loved everything about the trip. Would love to go back.
Only the strong survive in this life. Cheers for an amazing video in one of most beautiful places anywhere on earth.
Greetings from Tennessee USA 🇺🇲 glad you showing us Alaska
I really did like that lamp that you showed up the antique store, but the price was outrageous. And as always, the scenes driving, were beautiful.
Hi Alone I appreciate you slowing down the pricing. I was finally able to think about those crazy prices. Best to grow and hunt your own than buy.
Hi Sarah! You're welcome. Thank you for watching it again, and for the feedback. I really appreciate you and your continued support of the channel. Hope you are doing well. 🤗💛
Just beautiful when the sun is shining on the mountains. The Asian market was a total surprise to me with the selection and quantity of fresh produce in the winter time. Very impressive. HEB is a family owned chain in Texas and they are great people. What Hurricane Harvey was making it's way inland, people were in the store panicking and the employees had it all under control. Plus they handed out a what to do info sheet. Thanks for the shopping. ❤
Driving along with you reminds me of my childhood where I would steer out the window and marvel! Thank you for reminding me!
steer out thew window reread that okay
I did the same thing as a child
Food is expensive here in Alberta Canada too,hopefully the prices will come down soon.I really enjoyed the drive through the snowy mountains,beautiful scenery in Alaska.
Hi Alone Randy Brabec from Wasilla Three Bears. You made my day to meet you at the store. I was so happy. You're not just a regular person as you told me. you're much more than that. Because of you I bought a small place and moved there. Thank you for your awesome videos. I said to myself that if you can do it, I can do it. Thank you, Alone. Stop by and say hi to me in the liquor store dept. next time you're in town.
Thank you for taking me along with you.
I would be sooooo scared driving on black ice especially with moose around. You are sooooo brave & courageous!
I have watched most of your videos and I must say that you are an AMAZING woman! God Bless you and keep you safe!!
"I'm going to focus on the road - hey, look an eagle, check out this scenery, and one more thing....., ok I'm going to focus on the road for real this time" LOL
We love that antique shop as well. We go in anytime we go to Costco. So glad you got the truck running as it should be.
I've always wanted to go to Alaska, but have yet to fulfill that dream. My gosh, the scenery is so serene! Thank you for sharing this with the rest of us, I can only imagine how beautiful it is in person ❤
Compare to lake tahoe / Mammoth California areas.8.99 for 1 gallon of milk 7.99 for Dave's bread.5.51 for 1 gallon of diesel. Spring is coming and wishing you a wonderful harvest. Thank you for sharing your story ❤️.
@user-uh7sh7ly3h 1 dozen of organic brown eggs are 8.99 lb boneless Ribeyes are now 21.49 lb .Lean hamburger 7.49 lb .The people are leaving, but people are buying homes as soon as they hit the market.A home 3 doors up the street sold for 729k and the new owners flipped it for 700k .New construction is everywhere you look .it's amazing.
The produce in the very first grocery store Midtown Market ,looked great to me, the muffins delicious looking too.
The crab around 32.00 in shell, I am in Bay Area....62.00 shelled !
For some reason I was impressed with that first grocery store, didn't expect it to be so "modern" , and immediately thought of how all those items get up to Alaska. Thanks for taking us along on your shopping trip !
The fox were awesome, so beautiful
A beautiful place to live so peaceful.
Can’t say I love your grocery prices up there in Alaska Alone. But I Do Love,Love that Blue Dress with the floral print on you!
Hi Bill. You are always to kind. 😊 The prices here are high, but then again it does take a lot to get the food here too. I believe about only 3% of the food consumed in Alaska is locally sourced. Thank you for taking the time to watch the video, and for the support of the channel. I really appreciate you! Hope you are doing well and give Tali Girl a belly rub from me. 🤗💛🐺
I really enjoy your videos, I find them articulate , concise , thorough and genuine .
Thanks for taking us with you and Kenai! I love antique and thrift stores too! Yes, the prices in the antique store seemed high! It was interesting to see the price comparisons on the groceries! Very glad you were able to avoid the moose!! Whew!!
I’m 81 years old and have been trying to get to Alaska since 1966! Looks as if I may not be able to get there! But I’m not giving up. Yet…
I luv being snowed in. What a great place to be. Beautiful!!!! Good for you!!!! Good on the soul!!!!
Stunning scenery!
You drove right past my road!! Cool.
Thank you for sharing your day. I’ve always dreamed of living in Alaska.
Ha-ha....you got me with those car parts on the intro!! 😅 Some of the prices were actually lower than what we pay here in Eastern NC! Thank you for sharing and Hugs to Kenai 💙
Excellent Channel,
I just subscribed.
Best wishes
from New York City,
God Bless 👍🙏🌠🏔️
Ooooo I like those long cylindrical chandeliers ❤
Enjoyed my road trip with you. You are so brave living alone in a remote area. I live in suburbia tucked in a nice and quiet area. Nearest store less than 2 minutes away. Really admire your attitude about everything. Do you ever get lonely? That's my biggest problem since my husband passed away. First time seeing this video. I really enjoyed it. Very informative.
It's always so beautiful to drive anywhere in AK, depending on the weather. I've driven almost all the state's roads at least once and many times in my work. I love New Sayaga and shopped mostly at Costco and Fred Myers.
Congrats!! Your past 25K!!! I can't wait till you get your 100K Award and you will this year! Yay!
I just think people have not found your channel yet. They will though!
Beautiful beautiful drive. Love the beginning, so funny. Thanks for taking us all along. Take care and God Bless
I have been missing your live videos. it's good to see you are doing well. Beautiful scenery.
Hi Alone and Kenai 👋🥰It’s good to see the both of you✌️ Yes I agree on the pricing. Seems a lot of things are around the same price as here in Michigan in some places. I’m thankful I have a neighbor that raises beef steer and I get my meat from them. It rounds out to about $5.11 per pound of any cut. Recently it was $920.00 for 180lbs of meat (1/4 cow).
I shop Walmart and Sam’s club here as well for food staples and what not. We raise chickens so I don’t have to worry about buying eggs lol. Me being gluten and dairy free is a little challenging but over all it works.
Thank you for taking us along. Much love, stay safe, take care and God Bless🙏🥰🙏✌️
Hi Debbie! I don't remember what I paid in 2022 per pound of beef for the side of beef I purchased, but I am thankful that I purchased it when I did. The meat prices are so costly that I cannot imagine trying to fill my freezers from the grocery store. I rarely shop at Walmart and haven't been in a Sam's Club in years. I don't actually know if there are any in Alaska, but am thankful that I got a Costco membership finally. It has paid for itself, which is something that I did not mention in the video. I am glad that you are able to provide for you and your family with your chickens, garden and having neighbors who raise beef. Thank you again for being a channel member and watching the videos. 🤗💛
I am so agree with you, whenever I am in the city just cant get out fast enough to go back to my mountain. Great footage with spectacular landscapes as always.🥰
The glass fishing floats were pretty. I love the mountains there, such a beautiful drive! It's good to have friends, glad they fixed your vehicle. Thank you for comparing the food prices. Kenai is a sweet pup. Had to have surgery in 2013 and & stay in a City for a while.I'm back in the woods again, so happy, lol!!! love your videos.
Love this scenes of the mountains in your travels
I would Love to Visit Alaska , Love the snow.
I just got my notification and rushed right over !!!! I haven't seen you on TH-cam for a while !!!!
Enjoy watching your " self reliance " in Alaska !
Love watching your videos!
Loved those antique shops , we have stop on several stores while in anchorage and Fairbanks , been to tok and kenai peninsula , we went to Santa shop to see the Christmas decorations, went to see Fairbanks museum, that was back in 1997 , we took the ferry ride , MV Columbia if it’s still in service , thanks Cora for showing us the Last Frontier in Alaska, would loved to see that part of the world again, God Blessed 😊❤️👍🙏
Lots of Love From Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
I was stationed at Fort Richardson. My wife was with me. My daughter was born at Elmendorf... Air Force Base. I have a lot of memories. My wife shopped on the Post. I saw a lot of Alaska. I have a lot of memories (1980s)...
I grew up in a big city, too, but now live in the Country. I am not cut out for city life, either.❤
This was a great post! You do such a great job! 💚
What a beautiful day for a trip into town. Glad you have your vehicle running good again. WOW the price on that bowl was crazy. My husband and I love to go thrifting. Glad you were able to drive down and see Phyllis and Adam too. Glad you made it home safe. I don't see the moose.
Beautiful day for a drive to town
Please give a hi to your dog. Often an unsung hero in our evolution to survive and be happy.
Love your background music and as far as the high prices goes to iiving in paradise? I would pay double to live in Alaska....high prices keeps the weak at bay.
A real nice video! Thanks. You put a lot of work into the production. When I was a young child in the 60s my father considered moving to the Palmer area. I wanted to work up there when the pipeline was being built but my parents restrained me. Always wished I would have went. I have been to Alaska a number of times. I looked at some farms to rent in the Delta area in the 1980s. Several farmers from Montana were there and I visited with some of them. I worked at Bethel as a pharmacist in 1991 as a temp. And took some cheap Cruise ships along the coast several times. I could have made it in Alaska, but now I am old and it is a young persons kind of place in some ways.
Ran across your videos the other day and if I was not so old i would give it a try and move up to Alaska.I cannot handle the cold very well.maybe in my next life! stay healthy!
Been watching your vids for a few days now, had to start at the beginning, and being an ole timer cant help but to think of Annie Oakly every time i see you strapped. 😉Thanks for taking us along
Hello Alone it's good to see you. I haven't been on to see your videos my son in law got into a bad car accident and his back got broken and his legs where hurt. This happened on Christmas day. Those mandarins oranges you got Blue J. Is a great story about them.
The company is here in my hometown and mama was the bookkeeper my daddy built the sheds and I worked there.
Mandarins and Oranges and Grapefruits in winter and in Summer all kinds of produce. I retired from there 40 years of beautiful agriculture.
God bless and keep warm. Good to see you and yes I seen the moose.
I’m not planning on moving to alaska, but I love the stores with peeks of everything, especially thrifting, the mountains are amazing. my favourite shopping is a voice over as going along, with a few peeks of everything afterwards discussing meal planning, and the prices.
Great video! Beautiful photography! 👍☺️
Great video. Thank you
The scenery was very nice on the drive. Those grocery prices are run about correct for Alaska. Stay warm and be safe.
Some lovely scenery
Beautiful country thanks for letting me ride along. Now I can see what it's like in Alaska. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing.
Miss Alone,
I completely forgot Rose even existed as it used to be at Townsite.
I'll have to got there next month and I will tell them I heard about it
from you.
Thanks, BigT
Was listening on the drive to work. It amazes me how people equate age with value/worth. There was a tool seller at a local flea market that knew nothing about antique tools. He'd price old broken rusty tools antique prices and his retort was always the same. "It's old." We are talking about broken tools that I only wanted a single part from to rehab actual tools with value. Anyway, I always enjoy the practical inside knowledge episode's. Good job, ma'am.
Hi Chris! I hope you are doing well. I agree about how some people equate age with value or worth. A friend once told me that something only has value if it means something to you. If you have a practical use for it, or if it is of some sentimental value. And that just because it is a collector's item, or old does not make it valuable. Even if the one off sold for an outrageous price does not mean that a like item will do the same. Either way, I am sure someone somewhere is willing to pay top dollar for these items. It just isn't in my budget. I appreciate you watching... or listening... 😉 to the videos. And thank you for your continued support of the channel. 🤗💛
Breathtaking. Thanks so much.
Thanks, I enjoyed your video
When my wife and I and our 3 kids lived in anchorage back in the 70's and 80's we had one diary in Alaska for milk and other diary products. The other diary products came up from Seattle via hydro train (barges), I remember watching the local news one evening and the news person saying that the milk that comes on the hydro train has something like 8 days added to the expiration date because of the travel time, I am going to assume that other dairy products that came this way also had extended expiration dates. This revelation did not set well with the local people and caused back lash, I believe that after this the milk was shipped air cargo
New subscriber. Looking forward to your journey and channel. God Bless you and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister ☦️ 🙏🏻 ❤️
Absolutely gorgeous lady! I’m thinking about relocating to Alaska!
it's very beautiful there! lots of cold! thanks 4 the trip!
Wow what an amazing video thank you for the share that is some incredible scenery just found your channel and glad I did can’t wait to see the next one take care stay safe ❤
Ooohh really really beautiful and amazing place ❤❤❤
I’ve been all over Alaska 9 times. My Son & Daughter live there. One in Eagle River , One in Chugiak. My Son is Vice President of A.S.A.R.C. Oil. My Daughter manages Providence Hospitals E.R. The prices at Costco are relatively the same as here in Billings,Montana.
Thank you!
Very informative and helpful for the price deference. From what you shared Walmart looked like the best prices deal. And great video driving 😊
What a beautiful place you live in❤❤❤
Wow what a beautiful video tfs
Subscribed to Cut the Cord. Ty. Excellent video!
That blue knit sweater looked like it was 100% wool with a brass zipper, could be $300+ new. The $139 for the set of bowls was too much! Great little store
My condolences to all Alaskans…those prices are INSANE!!! Hello from BC, 🇨🇦
We are experiancing this food increase in Britain. I have to shop online now. It makes it easier to check store prices though. Enjoyed this. Thank you.
Informative .thanks
I have an idea of my poxy living next to you. I am 79 years old and I was stationed @ Fort Greeley with the Army’s Arctic Test Center. So I know about driving snow and ice covered roads. Back as I was north of the range, not only moose and bear but herds of bison and caribou herds numbering in the hundreds…6 months of daylight and night was the worst thing to get use to. The those mosquitoes so big, that we had to build run ways for them.🎉🎉,to land…
Love 💕 and light to all ❤ 😊 . .
Alaska - I’ve booked it for my next life 😘
I was excited I thought you were going to take us in to cosco shopping with you. No grocery haul. It seems crazy expensive there. I can't imagine.... Ty Alone. Please stay safe.
Damn girl, let's cut to the chase!
I live in South Texas. I refuse to shop at heb. They are very expensive. I shop aldie and I shop Walmart. Aldie milk 2.19 gallon. Walmart 2.48 gallon. Costco is so very expensive also. Thank you. Pray for Texas as we fight to close the borders. We have had close to a million crossing the Texas and Arizona border. Thank you
Great video
Wow it's so beautiful ..
I'll spend a day with you in Alaska it on my bucket list.
Much respect for your lifestyle. Stay safe.
