    i absolutely love these vlogs. they satisfy my inner desire to buy tons of snacks, drinks, ice cream, and fruit. Maybe some people can relate, but growing up we didn't get anything but the bare essentials and maybe a special cereal or berries if we were good. the shopping vlogs are a comfort, especially when you pick out each kids favorite, things they want to try, and things that are comfort/safe foods.

    I suspect this is a German thing, but when we go shopping and know we are buying a lot, we take laundry baskets in the shopping cart to help. After paying, we put the stuff right back into the baskets at the checkout. Loading into the car is then much faster, because you only have to load the filled laundry baskets and carry them out of the car again when you get home. Especially if you have bought so much, this saves a lot of time and patience, because you do not have to rummage the individual things out of the car, but already collected in the baskets.
    Also, a tip for breakfast. In Germany, instead of bags, we use reusable lunch boxes that are washed in the dishwasher. These are so much more climate friendly. It's not meant to sound unkind, but especially with such a large family, it would also be good to pay attention to the ecological footprint. You do this with your great reusable coffee mug after all, why not use more reusable things like this?

    Absolutely disgusted to see someone on here commenting on your vlogs apparently has a you tube channel practically shouting at you for buying water and having a go because you bought kids water bottles etc ,this person who apparently said over a thousand ppl sent him your shopping vlog from Ocean city had far too much too say in my opinion he has no idea about your lives only what you guys want to show .

    Alicia, I'm curious as to why you don't redirect your energies into having a home extension built so that the children aren't crammed into small bedrooms? I know your revenue is mainly from grocery shopping but the same amount of money could be gained by shopping at the DIY shops or from being sponsored as you design and choose everything you need. All this money you spend on transient things could go towards a more user-friendly home for both you and Josh and the children whilst helping the kids see the benefits of saving towards things of substance. You could still continue with your 'food safety' and 'food choices' lifestyle and yet provide some much needed space.

    Hi Alicia, I love your shopping vlogs. it is very interesting to see how different grocery shopping is outside of Europe. It is fascinating how many semi-finished and ready-made foods we can find in stores. For example, grated cheese. in my country in ordinary shopping chains we can find a maximum of 150g package of grated mozzarella or parmesan. For me, coming from a country that is very interested in recycling, it is very surprising that you only have one trash can in the kitchen and almost everything you buy in the grocery store is wrapped in plastic. I have 6 trash cans in the kitchen for sorting waste.
    that's why I like your vlogs so much. It is fascinating to watch your life and your love for all your children. You are an amazing mother.

He comes to me asking “box fun?” When he wants to watch because of all the boxes he sees on the shelves and because he’s having such fun watching and who can blame him? I love watching too. He also names foods he sees and knows while watching like “cookie” and “eggs” so he also gets to practice talking. 😁
    P.S
    He cries when the videos end. He loves you so much.
