Hi Melissa! I’ve watched for years even before you had Emmy.. I’m so amazed at how you budget and plan for these hauls and really nice gifts for the girls for birthdays and now Christmas..times are tough and I know you and your hunny bunny aren’t working right now .. would love any tips and tricks as to how you are able to make ends meet.. I am struggling right now! Thank you and god bless you!
To all the judgmental people: Please leave your privilege at the door. It is a blessing to just simply put food on the table. Enough with the mom shaming and try to show more kindness ❤️
As a mom of 4, I can't imagine going a month without fresh produce. My kids love to snack on fruits and veggies throughout the day. Just recently my 8 year old has been asking for celery so she can make ants on a log. 🙂 Does your school have a lunch pickup for distance learners? I know in our district (in MN) all lunches are at no cost for the remainder of the school year. We place our "order" for each kid, and then pick up on Mondays. It's been a big helper for our food budget. (I say "order" because we don't get to choose what we want, it's just a number count for the food service department)
I go few times a week to pick up fresh veg..and fruit...I only have 1 teen....but she goes to school...so I have to pick up fresh stuff and milk and bread
You always have the best grocery hauls!!! I love seeing what you pick out for your family....you give me food/snack ideas!! Love you Melissa and your family ♥️ Stay safe & Stay well!! 😷🎁🎄⭐️⛄️
The only time I ever use paper plates and plastic utensils is for a picnic every couple of years haha But I get it, sometimes I'm not even that excited for dinner because I think of all the dishes that I have to clean 😩😩 Especially after all these massive holiday dinners! Anyhow, the raspberry pecan dressing sound so good oh my! Your haul really reminds me that I need to check the pantry and start planning the food shop for the holidays 🥴 Happy second sunday of advent Melissa :)
My sister lives not to far from you. She's in Karnes just east of you. I enjoyed shopping at HEB when I was there in October. Hope to move there some time next spring.
OMG...came across your channel. I am so homesick for home..SA. I miss Texas and HEB! Totally agree HEB has the best prices. I am in Indiana and it is expensive here. Can't wait to get back to normal so I can get back home to San Antonio to see my family. And stock up on HEB goodies. No concept of Mexican food here. Lol stay safe!
I have 2 teen boys and a teen girl and we are spending about $650 - $750 but my kids are homeschooling so they are eating all meals all snacks and desserts from home.
Hamburger helper Stroganoff and cheeseburger macaroni are my family favorites. Yes they may not be healthy but they're quick and tasty. Don't sleep on Hamburger Helper. Super haul for $527. Thanks. I just subscribed to your channel. Are there HEB stores in Maryland, do you know? Girls can throw down eating. I know too.
Eggs are good source of protein and not to expensive. Peanut butter on toast with banana good source of protein and keep you full. Bananas are .49 cents a pound. Dollar Tree has dried beans $1.00 and buy rice at Walmart cheaper. Make beans and rice. Dollar Tree had bigger cereal honey oats and apple rings $1.00. French fries $1.00. Frozen veggies 16 oz $1.00.
The Pumello are delicious. You can cut it in sections like an orange. The girls may enjoy them that way. Also, I completely get it, bringing pizza for dinner. I never want to cook after grocery shopping, especially a haul like that!!!
If you and hubby love everything bagels you need to try the bell peppers or mini peppers with cream cheese and everything bagel seasoning. It is so good and keto.
It saddens me to see so many distasteful comments. You put so much effort into these videos and the videos for your vlog channel. I can't even imagine putting in so much genuine work and getting so many nasty comments. I guess that's a part of being a content creator. I'm here for YOU. Whether or not we do things differently I enjoy your personality, your family, and your content. I guess what matters when you get a hate comment is knowing that you would never hate on someone the way some people do on you and other creators as well.
I agree, definitely can’t go without fresh fruits and veggies! Bananas, raspberries, strawberries, cucumbers and carrots are major staples in our house!
That's the thing about shopping for your own family, you can go whenever you want to! Lots of people grow their own food and preserve it so no need to go to the store every single week. It's whatever works for your family!
I didn't mean anything in a negative way. I just simply meant that it would he nice not to have to go to the store every single week. I'm sorry if my comment came across otherwise!
Maybe she has frozen veggies and fruits? That’s what I do! I then make smoothies with them.. I heard they are actually healthier too bc the nutrients are preserved by freezing them..
I bought and ate plummelos when I was pregnant I was extremely sick my whole pregnancy and anything I ate during it I could not eat ever again I can’t even go into Aldis because of the smell of the place
Love your haul! Apparently there are persons on here that are a little overly obsessed with the need to see fresh fruit.....first of all frozen fruit is perfectly fine...plus not everyone is so obsessed with fresh fruit... especially in these times...trips to the grocery stores can be a chore...continue to buy non perishables as much as possible...these times are constantly changing...availability of produce and staples can be iffy ..do what you do and block the people who never learned to keep negative comments to themselves.
So funny you guys are allowed to have people at your houses here in Canada you aren’t allowed anybody in your house except for who lives there no gatherings what so ever!
You really should budget for weekly or biweekly so you don't run out Of fresh fruits, veggies, milk and eggs. My husband and children would disown me for that. They need them for snacks.
If you are looking for a really good hot chocolate recipe here is one that is simply the best. I made this one Christmas Eve and it was the best hot chocolate I have ever had. This stuff is Da Bomb: th-cam.com/video/n1vQdCYeSQc/w-d-xo.html
Mom life is definitely spending a ton on groceries and then feeding the little ones chicken nuggets or pizza so you can put it all away in peace. Lol. Definitely understand. P.S. We are a family of 3 and my husband and son could smash what you bought for 6 people in less than a month. So that was an amazing grocery shop.
Glad you got some fresh fruit. I was worried as the first part of the video had so much processed food. Kids need a balanced diet, so not to have weight issues when they get older.
Since you have over 50,000 subscribers did you know you can sell your own merchandise like for example t-shirts hats fanny packs scrunchies purses coffee mugs posters keychains with your own logo on it to try to be hopeful I hope you can get 2 million subscribers if you get over 1 million subscribers you Will be making close to $80,000 from TH-cam

How do you do it? Between your HEB and COSTCO hauls, thats6 months grocery for us.👍👍
To all the judgmental people: Please leave your privilege at the door. It is a blessing to just simply put food on the table. Enough with the mom shaming and try to show more kindness ❤️
I wanted to see where you stored all that glorious food😃
With 4 young girls, how do you go weeks without fresh fruits and veggies? I have to run to the grocery store every week and we are just a family of 3.
Packaged processed food.
That's so sad. Not much effort needed to go to the grocery store.
It'sabondslife you don’t know that?? Maybe she just doesn’t record when she runs to the store for staple items. 🤷🏻♀️
Frozen fruits and veggies... ever heard of that. It’s a thing, look it up
@@jessicamedina6896 she literally said in the haul they hadn’t had fresh fruits or vegetables in weeks lol...

Momma life ❤ grocery shopping and get all the yums...then get something quick for dinner. We've all been there for sure
Hello, new to your channel. Love the video and I need to do a Costco haul. Haven’t been there in over 6 months.
I love those rolls growing up. OMG with syrup
What is your couponing shelf?
We had those same rolls at thanksgiving, and they’re right up there with the kings Hawaiian rolls. So good! That’s such a good deal on them.
It's been three weeks for us too. I just had to stock up and spent a bit more than I wanted but it was SO necessary.
Haha don't we all order pizza or some type of quick meal after a long day of grocery shopping. Great haul as usual.
I’m so glad other people do too. It wears you out loading, unloading then putting away. Last thing I wanna do is dirty dishes 🤣
You always have the best grocery hauls!!! I love seeing what you pick out for your family....you give me food/snack ideas!!
Love you Melissa and your family ♥️
Stay safe & Stay well!! 😷🎁🎄⭐️⛄️
Great Haul Melissa, great to see u bk Vlogging, Best Wishes from the UK 🇬🇧 xxx

The popcorn seasoning is amazinggggg on pork rinds!
My sister lives not to far from you. She's in Karnes just east of you. I enjoyed shopping at HEB when I was there in October. Hope to move there some time next spring.
That's a great deal for all your groceries. In our store it would be well over $1,000.
I understand, when you have done a haul who feels like cooking
OMG...came across your channel. I am so homesick for home..SA. I miss Texas and HEB! Totally agree HEB has the best prices. I am in Indiana and it is expensive here. Can't wait to get back to normal so I can get back home to San Antonio to see my family. And stock up on HEB goodies. No concept of Mexican food here. Lol stay safe!
Sorry I couldnt help but notice your tree back there, so pretty! 😍
Love love love your grocery hauls! Gives me so many ideas! 💜
Great video Melissa. Happy 1st birthday Everleigh
Fabulous haul.....that's a ton of groceries for what you spent!!!
Red rome are the best apple for baking and eating. It's the only apple I eat. BTW what is the coupon shelf?
I have 2 teen boys and a teen girl and we are spending about $650 - $750 but my kids are homeschooling so they are eating all meals all snacks and desserts from home.
Awe I can't believe Everleigh is already a year old! ❤️❤️❤️
Hamburger helper Stroganoff and cheeseburger macaroni are my family favorites. Yes they may not be healthy but they're quick and tasty. Don't sleep on Hamburger Helper. Super haul for $527. Thanks. I just subscribed to your channel. Are there HEB stores in Maryland, do you know? Girls can throw down eating. I know too.
The Dollar Tree sometimes stocks those Hawaiian rolls.
Pomelo are lovely. I believe they are from Asia and a mix off grapefruit and orange. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do
Nice haul,I’m struggling trying to find out how to feed my son I don’t care if I eat long as he does what a blessing thanks for sharing
Eggs are good source of protein and not to expensive. Peanut butter on toast with banana good source of protein and keep you full. Bananas are .49 cents a pound.

Get to a food bank asap! Go as often as you can and get prepared for winter💕
The Pumello are delicious. You can cut it in sections like an orange. The girls may enjoy them that way. Also, I completely get it, bringing pizza for dinner. I never want to cook after grocery shopping, especially a haul like that!!!

Thank you for sharing and being real. Enjoyed your video:)
Wonder how much this would cost in 2024. I’m betting over $1500

I wish I could go weeks without fresh fruits and veggies! My 19 month olds favorite snack is raspberries. She goes through 2 twin packs a week!!
Yeah I don’t get it we grocery shop weekly so we have fresh fruit and vegetables for our kids
I agree, definitely can’t go without fresh fruits and veggies! Bananas, raspberries, strawberries, cucumbers and carrots are major staples in our house!

What a beautiful haul for you and your family 👍🏽
Pummelos are absolutely delicious!
So funny you guys are allowed to have people at your houses here in Canada you aren’t allowed anybody in your house except for who lives there no gatherings what so ever!
Depends on what colour/level your municipality is in but the red level, yeah no gathering.
The state I live in is recommending not to have get togethers. It's definitely not fun, but a sacrifice to be made.
Here in Ottawa it wAs bad for awhile....
Thank you for the Great video
Great haul loved it!👍
Wow surprised at all the rude comments ,,, anyways ,, loved the haul
I never see rude comments how do you see them?
@@patticake6032 I think Melissa deletes them.
Keep up the Great work
Jealous that you are close to an H‑E‑B. We have to drive about an hour and a 1/2 to Lubbock to get to the closest store!
Please don’t use margarine. It is so horrible! Our bodies don’t knows how to process it. Whole milk fats are so good for us.
FANTASTIC haul!
Love your grocery hauls
Love your hauls
Great haul!
You Are A Great Role model
Nice video 😊🍂🍁
You are looking really good.
My Mom loves pomelos :)
Thanks for sharing
I miss H E B I live in Louisiana now
You really should budget for weekly or biweekly so you don't run out Of fresh fruits, veggies, milk and eggs. My husband and children would disown me for that. They need them for snacks.
That’s the beauty of doing what works for you, it doesn’t have to make sense to anyone else.

Great haul. I love heb. I wouldn’t give your baby more than 12-15 oz of milk a day. It could constipate her.
Mom life is definitely spending a ton on groceries and then feeding the little ones chicken nuggets or pizza so you can put it all away in peace. Lol. Definitely understand.
P.S. We are a family of 3 and my husband and son could smash what you bought for 6 people in less than a month. So that was an amazing grocery shop.
No Melissa, don’t do it.
Have you tried the pummelo yet? It is so so good I think 😍😘
Really enjoyed watch ur grocery haul
Omg so much good food i need to come over there
Everlie is not a year old already😭p.s great haul!
Glad you got some fresh fruit. I was worried as the first part of the video had so much processed food. Kids need a balanced diet, so not to have weight issues when they get older.
Its covered in processed food.
Walker Karen Martin Jeffrey Allen Kenneth
Love your hauls ❤
The first time you referred to your husband as your “honey bunny” was cringey but by the 4th time I was just done listening 🤢
When you guys do these hauls with your hands flapping around it really gets annoying. I could only watch about two minutes of the haul.
💜💜💜
Happy first birthday everleigh
So many rude people.
I can’t belice al the hate comments wow
Wow five to six hundred dollars that sounds cheap for the amount of people in your house
Since you have over 50,000 subscribers did you know you can sell your own merchandise like for example t-shirts hats fanny packs scrunchies purses coffee mugs posters keychains with your own logo on it to try to be hopeful I hope you can get 2 million subscribers if you get over 1 million subscribers you Will be making close to $80,000 from TH-cam
Love your grocery hauls
Amazing haul!
