    A couple years ago my husband had Covid for 12 weeks, 11 months later, he broke his ankle, three weeks after that, I broke my back. I was never so thankful as to have a prepared pantry as I was over these past two years. We had no income because he is Self-Employed and I was unemployed due to the pandemic. Even though I work in healthcare. I had no patients and our sleep centers closed. It’s not always about a catastrophe. It’s about illness injury job loss or a catastrophe. Could be weather related. Thank you for sharing this. I learned a few more things and now I will add it to my list as well.❤

    I would love to do a stock up shopping trip, but my monthly budget allows about $50 or less.
    I started going to the food bank drops last month. They are 95% produce right now. I've bèn very grateful to be able to can most of the items I have gotten. Cabbage and made Sauerkraut, carrots, white and sweet potatoes, yellow squash, zucchini, and sweet peppers. It's been a huge blessing to be able to can these things for winter.

      Probably the number one season of the year to stock up. So many times you either can't or would rather not even have to get out of the house to shop. I guess that also depends on where you live...how much snow and ice you get and for how long, or just not liking icy cold weather period. For me in Va. and I will be 85 when winter hits our area, I just like to hibernate. LOL.

    I feel better after watching this. Just finishing up 5 bags of corn. 20 dozen in each. Some frozen, some canned and got all the silks drying for tea and jelly! Picking up 5 bushels of green beans tomorrow to can. My u pick farm also has half bushel baskets of ugly tomatoes, $12 each or 2 for $18. Lots of those coming home with me too. Not physically able to pick my own and I can use my EBT and they double the amount with a state program for seniors. Win win for me. My prepper friends and I will be busy canning all week. Another couple of our group took lists of what everyone needed or wanted and headed to Chef's Store. It's all spread out in my living room for everyone to pick up. Then garden harvesting soon for fresh and getting ready for fall planting.

    Thank You for the video.
    I do a freezer clean out during the hot summer months. I use alternative cooking methods to grill meat. I limit oven use to only certain days and certain times to keep my house from getting too hot. I do not spend all of my grocery budget. I use the produce that I grew. I supplement that with vegetables from local Farmstands. Once a month I purchase a large family salad for $5 from a Papa Murphy's and have several days of salad lunches. I do everything that I can to save money for the fall sales in certain categories. I either purchase a whole hog or a quarter beef. I locate the store remodel sales and stock up on chicken as well. I use whatever is leftover to add to my food storage.
    During the past 2 years, I have been working with a prepping group and we have been getting food salvage. The food pantries get donations that no one wants so they have to either find someone to take them or throw them away. We take them and process them and divide them up amongst the group. The people that visit the food pantries do not cook from scratch and are picky as they prefer processed junk food.
    I process things like whole wheat flour or big pork loins or those fancy frozen fish nuggets.

    Great haul. I just helped my friend in her garden for three hours today. We got the whole thing weeded. I transplanted a bunch of cabbage, so I think that put us at about 25 plants. Harvested all the cabbage. We are going to make Pinballs recipe. We got fresh onions and rutabagas today too. Got fresh onions to put in our recipe with the cabbage. So a good day in the garden. Oh and I dug up a potato plant that came up from last years potatoes. So many volunteers this year. We planted about 100 potatoes this year. So we will be busy canning and storing them. Thanks for all the great videos. A friend in Michigan

    Really surprised you came in under $300 with the way prices are. I stock up on the “15 bean soup” bean bags, and cans of fire roasted diced tomatoes, which I add to the bean soup. We eat a lot of sloppy joes (venison burger) so dry mixes and cans of tomato paste (looking for a scratch recipe for the seasonings, no good ones so far) - any suggestions? Pastas for sure. Brown gravy mixes - I doctor those up with red wine, butter and brown mushrooms for meatballs/ mash potatoes and gravy. We also have buckets and buckets of different rices - we eat a lot of rice. Oh and our house CANNOT run out of pickled jalapenos - it would cause widespread rebellion.

    So true that our eating habits change. When I was going to work as a sub teacher, or before that, on my school bus, I went through a lot of dried fruit, vienna sausages, and other food that travelled well. I spent two days cleaning and re-arranging my pantry last week - a good job to do in the coolest part of my farm during the hottest weather - and dusted off some of those Vienna sausages. I put them where they are more noticeable. I threw out a bunch of BBQ sauce I canned, and some (not all) salsa. Lately I prefer my salty snacks plain. My inventory is up to date, and being added to every day as I pick berries and freeze them, make jam, etc. Next up will be canning beans! For cheese, I stock up when it goes on sale: June is dairy month, then sometimes for holidays like Christmas and New Years it is often on sale. I put it in the freezer and it does just fine. Now, it will fall apart in chunks and not stay together when you cut it, but that is fine for macaroni and cheese, etc.

He use to question if we really needed that much stuff at one time! (Last yr was the first year that I was able to actually stock enough for a full "Year's" worth and I am happy to say I didnt overstock and just 2 items was understocked.) Needless to say he doesnt question anything anymore and he did get tonsee I did not "over stock" any thing and it "potentially go to waste".

I have everything else for me as a single adult and then some, but lately a lot of farmers markets here have orange tomatoes which I want to switch to. Orange tomatoes are lower acid than regular and I have GERD. I adore tomatoes and won’t give them up but I will go to the effort to get a lower acid one and hopefully I can get plenty for the next year before growing my own next year. It’s always interesting to me the things people prioritize and why and the thought process, because it sparks my own thinking for mine.

    I'm doing 1 year with out grocery store , so my stock up is for 1 year. I dont drive and cab fare to my grocery store is 45.00 per trip, so doing huge hauls is perfect for me.. I'm a low income only parent , and doing this makes me feel good. Some people get their nails done, some their hair, I cut my own hair and save all the money for food hauls.. I live in Ontario local produce went really high in price , I have gardens which help , but you better believe I'll buy frozen fruit, still from ontario over paying 6.50 for a tiny box of strawberries, or buy frozen corn over doing my own paying 8.00 a dozen for corn. If I see butter at 5.00 a lb I'll buy 10 lbs and put in freezer it's usually 7.99 -9.99 lb , if I see milk on sale ( ours comes in bags) it's usually 6.99 if it drops on sale for 5.99 I'll buy 10 bags and throw in freezer. Prices are not decreasing they will just get worse. I feel less stress knowing I'm prepared. I also start in july but in sept I get my haul of root veggies and apples and other fall harvest and it goes in my cold storage. I grow root veggies but not enough to last 1 yr . And yes it lasts all year in cold storage ..
    Keep up the great work..

    I too begin shopping early for the fall and winter months. Now is the time I plan my holiday meals. There is always an item that’s plentiful all year (like cranberry sauce) until the onset of the holidays. We prefer fresh but unless the price is right we use canned cranberry sauce. If I find a super deal then I buy 4-6 bags and make my own and can it up for the year. In addition to candied fruit for fruit cakes I’ll add dried fruits too. They’re usually in stock all year and do great in the freezer. I’ve been doing this for years and it insures me to have everything in advance and it saves on the grocery bill as well. I also check my stockpile and even though I’m not in need of anything I’ll still pick up one or two items. Paper products, cleaning supplies and whatever I find on special that fits in my stockpile.

    I love it that you do not look down on us mortal folk who buy canned goods! Some people just don't have the time and space to can fresh produce themselves. As long as one's belly is full, there is nothing wrong with canned veggies and fruit. The only thing to take note of is the salt content in some products, especially meat, and plan meals around lightening the sodium load.

    Thanks Leisa! Well, I guess I'm doing ok because I still have loads from when I stocked like crazy when the bugaboo hit. I'm proud of myself today because I hit some random good deals on burger and ground turkey (which is stupid expensive now - got it for 30% off) and I came home with lots of goodies for canning incl. 10lbs of beets (gave me 10 pints😊) for about $130.00. Note: Cream of "whatever" soups were on special 3/$6.00 (I know, brutal!) But that's what it's like up here in Ontario now. I saw some ridiculous prices on things in jars (we must be paying for the glass!)
    I blend my coffees as well! It's saves loads $$! Now the gardens are coming in so the only things we need to focus on are meats and good clothing and fire wood.
    We are golden.
    Love from the North!!

    My Christian pantry has recently cut back on handing out 40 pound boxes of frozen miss-cut chicken; thighs or drumsticks or chicken breast. I was able to get a box twice a month. One box of chicken breasts gave me 35 pints canned. Then ive also gotten potatoes (white and sweet), carrots, cabbage, onions, blackberries, mangos. At 72 I've learned to can for the first time in my life. So I'm just canning my little heart out and loving it.
