You're such a wonderful mother, stocking your daughter up! That's great that she was checking her Walmart app while she was at Aldi's and comparing. You've taught her well! She's going to do just fine at adulting.
Hello friend!! I really hope so. I was impressed. It’s was also nice she was considerate of my budget. It showed she is appreciative 😁 I think you’re right though. She will do fine adulting but the world is changing so fast right now- I worry
Mine too ❤️ I don’t even remember her saying that until after I edited and uploaded the video. She’s wonderful in a world where some children are ungrateful. Thank you 😁
My kids aren’t prepping or stocking up Instead I’m just a conspiracy theorist that thinks food shortages are coming So I’m stocking up for them and they don’t know Much ❤️ from one mom to another
Love and respect back : ) I hear that a LOT! I feel your pain. You’re an awesome mom for doing so. But hey, just ask them what would they do if they lost their job tomorrow? Laid off? Had to take medical leave? You can only help so much. It’s not preparing for doomsday- this is real life and stuff happens. I wish you blessings and peace while you do this alone
I am a daughter who’s parents aren’t stocking up. So I try to stock extra for them. When the pandemic started and everything shut down my then 12 year old asked me if we were going to starve while he was crying. That was enough for me to start prepping and I haven’t stopped. Plant if you have space.
@@shellyg5705 Omg I can’t imagine how it must of felt as a mother having a young child scared about starving I’m so glad you’re on top of it now Our young kids depend on us to make the right decisions I feel so bad for families that aren’t preparing right now I don’t want to be in a mile long line in the hot sun waiting for rations from pantries and not knowing if I’ll make it home because someone that didn’t want to wait in line just takes the food from me Sorry I’m thinking of weird scenarios
@@IAMYOU-. Yes, he calls our storage his grocery store 😊 And your right about waiting in ration lines and people taking from you. That could very well happen if/when people get desperate. Your one of the smart ones, don’t let anyone make you feel crazy. I have learned only to share my thoughts about prepping/ what’s going on in the world with like minded people. And they are hard to find lol
I have been trying to take my daughter shopping for two weeks now. She come along but doesn’t want anything. So I have started doing it on my own. My other children I can talk till I am blue in the face. No chance. So they know they can come here to me. Funny how we want just the essentials for them and they can’t see it. Good luck. 🙏🙏
Ur a great mom. All this stuff going on in the world is new to younger folks. Showing her what she needs to do to prepare will be something she long remembers.
Oh I hope you’re right. I don’t want to scare her- just prepare her. She’s watched me do it- Perhaps now that I have her started in her own place it will become part of her lifestyle 😁
A skateboard would have been a great thing to have. My husband works weird shifts and I always go to Lowes, Menards, or Home Depot my myself. I bought a cheap skateboard and keep it in the truck. That way when I need to transport anything heavy, it helps having the wheels, and it's small enough to keep upside down under the passenger seat.
Thank you. They appreciate and that makes it worth the effort. Everything is getting so expensive and topsy turvey that I need to feel I can at do least something. May God bless you and yours too 😁
Worstershire sauce is so good, lasts for ages, tastes like salty sweet. We use it so much in New Zealand, flavours rice really well. Cheers Diana NZ ☺️
I know you will by that comment. You sound like you adore your children and want the best for them. I remember mine at that age and enjoyed every minute of it ❤️ I just never imagined it only gets better. I hope you hug and kiss them every day : )
Yes, you are an amazing mom! I am the same with my kids. No matter how old they are, we need to make sure they are well prepared, so they will know what and how to do it. Great job mom! 👏 👏 👏
You are a Momma after my own heart! And your Mom sending money is exactly what my Mom does! You’ve got a good girl there keeping the price in mind. My kids are the same way. Just found your channel today and I really like how you are teaching your child how to get the best deal. We have taught all our kids how to shop by the ounce, pound etc. our youngest boys are 17 and 16 and I take them with me to show them how to shop for the best deals. Thanks for sharing!
Go mom! You’re doing a great job. I wish more parents would share that little information with their children. The problem is some adults don’t even know. And aren’t moms the greatest - like your mom and my mom will never stop being moms 😁
This is one of my favorite comments- but you can. Wherever you live go to Google and put in “buy nothing” then city and state. Example buynothinghoustontexas Then scroll down to one with a Facebook page and join. If you need something just kindly ask if someone has it- like I really need to make a pantry does anyone have a tall bookshelf they no longer need. People respond to needs. Get a bookshelf free and fill it with foods she eats a little at a time. Hit the food pantries, buy sales. I couldn’t come close to what I wanted to do for her - I just pulled every penny I had and stuff from my pantry and went for it. You’re a good momma. You’ll figure it out 😁
I got a little emotional when I watched your video. First of all you are just an amazing, caring ,helpful Mom. I will be in this situation in 2 weeks time as my 22 yr old daughter is moving to a new apartment and I will be doing exactly what you have done for your daughter. I love, love ,love this video. Thank you so much 💗💓
Aww! You’re baby is moving out. But that means you’ve done an amazing job with her. She’s ready 😀 It sounds like you’re close to your daughter too. She’s blessed/fortunate to have you
Welcome aboard 😀 And thank you for watching and taking time to comment. You go mamma. It’s a good feeling to still be there to help isn’t it! I’m sure they appreciate you for it too
Good Morning Girlfriend!☀️🙋🏽♀️ I still have 2 daughter’s at home 🏡 and my oldest daughter is in Japan! I miss her so much! 😭 I send her boxes 📦 It’s nothing greater then being a Mother! ☺️Keep up the good work!🥰🌺 See ya 👋🏽 in the next one ☝🏾 Have A Great Week and Stay Safe out there!🥰🌺
Japan is soooo far! I won’t fret over how far my daughter is from me anymore. At least I can get to her. But I bet she appreciates the boxes of love from home 🥰 I wish you a great day too 😁
We switched to using the wraps off butter to grease pans, and it saves buying spray. We fold those in half and keep them in the frig. We learned that on you tube! Also, ziploc baggies we use for a few things, but for long term storage a vacuum sealer keeps the food longer. Congrats on the freezer! Good video.
When I was still working and my daughter’s family was struggling I drove up to her house and took her shopping, too. Now, my husband and I have been prepping, bought an upright freezer last year, kept our old side by side refrigerator when we got a new one and have filled all the freezers. This year I got a Foodsaver and I love it. I’ve been able to vacuum seal full bags of flour after opening the seal, folding it over and putting a piece of tape on it. I’ve also put 3 cups of bread flour in paper lunch bags that I labeled, dated, cut down, folded over once and taped and vacuumed sealed for bread making later. Moms take care of their kids.
I LOVE it! It takes a lot of work to put away for a rainy day! Upright freezers are the BEST!! My mom got one of those and I got the chest. Hers is so much easier to access an see. Three years ago I measured to fit bins in my freezer. I was finding stuff at the bottom that was 2 years old 😂 I thought, I’ve got to better. Now I know where everything is 😄 BRW my foodsaver has been my best investment! It keeps my food SO fresh 😀
@@poorandposh8231 I also learned how to water bath can last year and have put up jars of strawberry and raspberry jam. By the way, I’m 71, will be 72 May 31.
Thank you, this was so interesting! I live in Finland and I compared your prices to ours: you have cheaper oils, everything with peanuts and canned food. We have cheaper paper products, like toilet paper. We don't have that many canned food at all and they are quite expensive. Meat is expensive everywhere now, it seems, as is fish too. Also, we can't grow any kind of nuts here, so they are expensive in every product. I like the way you put meet and fish in the freezer. Well planned 😏 👌
Wow that is very different than what I see. It gives me a broader prospective. I often seek videos from other states, countries where people shop to compare. It’s nice to know I could share my area with others. BTW - thank you for watching 😁
Also I’ve been watching Finland lately- the happiest place. Your government programs are wonderful. I started reading Russian history and I’ve learned SO much
I love this video!!! Amazing what you did for her!! I live in NYC and I wish I could stock pile but I have no where to put it. There’s no space in my apartment.
this is so sweet. im 32 and have a stocked pantry, but my mom still comes over and brings me her excess costco loot. popcorn, crescents, and ice cream tub this week for my kids bc she knows we are on a tight budget and im not buying snacks right now. it is just so sweet that you're helping your daughter out. she wants to cook, thats great!!! i didnt cook in my early 20s. didnt learn until i got married at 25.
How in the world did you manage to get a freezer when people couldn’t find one anywhere? I’m happy for you. I think they’re the best investment ever : )
Great job teaching you daughter about money and budgeting. One thing many parents don't do !! This was a big priority for me and my daughter. She is a amazing saver. Only debt she currently has is student loans. Some she college she didn't even take loans for. Parents do you kids a favor and teach them about money before they are even in school ! When they start asking you to buy them that toy , tell them how much that toy or so they can save and don't forget the taxes !!
Last time I was in that position a friend used a tarp to help me 👌💪👍👍♥️so I now have a tarp in every vehicle. That was a awesome deal on the freezer 😉 good video
Thank you! You are SO absolutely right 😁 I know about the tarps. I use them in my home and moving things like dirt and mulch and all sorts of things. In a pinch a big piece of cardboard will work depending on where I’m moving something 😀
Love it!! You are such a great role model. May God continue to bless you and your family. You have inspired me to start my pantry in a small budget friendly way. Thank you
I had to chortle! You are a great mother... I have two affluent parents and I am an only child... Not all parents care about their children like you do. I'm college educated and have done nothing really wrong in life. You rock! Thank you for the video! 🤗
I do the same thing with my daughter. I stocked up her freezer and her pantry. She has my granddaughter and i want to make sure they eat. Makes me sleep alot better at night just knowing they are fed and ok.
You're so kind to her I just bought that a little bit bigger than that freezer chest I just bought one that's a little bit bigger but now I'm gonna get it 1 of that size for my other 2 daughters thank you great idea
As a mom you know it’s so easy to show kindness to your children when you want what’s best for them. Even easier when they appreciate and love you for it 😁 Look at you - going out to get TWO freezers for your babies. That’s a mom!
I have preached and preached to my grown kids. Daughter and her family are leaving on a cruise Saturday. They have nothing stored. Stresses me out. I plan to go to her house( an hour away) and clean her house while she's gone. Another thing she lacks in. They make fun of me, roll their eyes and ask of I want their scraps to vacuum seal or can. My son is marginally better but not much. Daughter has a 7 year old and son has 3 yr. and 6 months. I've stored diapers. Made them both a power out box for Christmas. I can't afford to stock their homes. They would just laugh at me. Daughter in law is difficult sometimes and she would say I'm meddling. So I just keep stocking my place but it's a small log cabin in the woods and I don't have room to house them. That's 7 more people. What gets me is they know I won't let the babies go hungry and they are their bargaining chip.
Bless your heart! I can only imagine. I don’t understand some people. I’m not a “doomsday” person nor do I get extra food for what they call SHTF. It’s just practical. We have tornadoes, job losses and it costs SO much to go to one store every week to buy ALL your groceries. You’re good to them. I would want to dismiss them, but like you said they’re family and you can’t let a child go hungry . For their sake I hope they don’t need you. Meanwhile little momma - keep doing what moms have done for years. . . protect you family however you can
Mothers are the best! Don't forget though that you can have some of that shipped to her with free shipping from those stores and also stock up at your place and then take it with you instead of going to the store when you get there.
You are such an awesome mom doing this for your daughter. My mom does me the same way. Stay as awesome as you are, you will keep getting your blessings.
You sound like an amazingly wonderful person- you apparently appreciate and love your mom. And as a mother it gives us great joy to have children like you. I claim and appreciate all my little blessings- thank you : )
@@poorandposh8231 yes I do love my mom. You sound so wonderful and caring.we need more mom's like you and my mom. My mom struggle taking care of 6 kids by herself on a teacher's salary after my dad died. She did an awesome job. I try to immolate after her with my sons.
Thank you! So glad you like, watched and took the time to comment. And you’re right - you forget about “self” when you doing something for someone else - even if it is family 😁
FYI - I used to buy the large cans of cheese when the kids lived at home. We then stopped but I found out from another blogger that it can be frozen. It froze wonderfully and there was no change in texture when thawed. Yeah!
When my brother n wife n baby moved back n into our house there were 7 of us living on dad's pay at A&P store dad said he'd have to go to bank or store for advance on pay for food so as I was the one who shopped for groceries idisclosed every week I got a couple extra cans food n hid them n there was enuf to get us thru the week. Dad was furious that I did that n said he knew idy done that he'd thrown it out n yard. I don't know y anger as he grew up dirt poor maybe w.w. 2 hoarding but that lesson n ihad food stored got me thru 2 years n ,4 mo's covid lockdown so plz keep prepping as u never know when you'll need it
What!! Steal of a deal. I’m so happy for you! Remember just 2 years ago you couldn’t even find one 😂 And the food saver- no way. I paid quite a bit more from mine a few years ago but I’ve used it enough to have made it worth it
Hi there!!! I think so too! I offered my son one and he said no. But he lives close enough to run by my house. My daughter thought it was the best thing ever 😂
Items like soy sauce and other high salt items rarely go bad. Salt is a preservative after all. And most dates are best buy not expiration so as long as an item looks and smells ok, I usually use it anyways, never mind the date.
We use tortillas from sams.for breakfast sandwich, hot dogs, sandwich rolls, anything you put on bread. Also Greek flat bread, dita breaks too. Less money less carbs
Hi my name is sharon and I just wanted to say thank you for your channel and your video and i am new to your channel video and i love how you did the book shelves very very nice beautiful job with everything for your daughter ok as always stay safe and blessed
Thank you Sharon so much for joining 🙏 And I hope you stick around : ) I just share whatever I do to maybe inspire others. I just finished a weekly meal prep- might no be as good exciting 😂
That corn bread is the best! What we do for our children :-) i do the same Love my kids. Enjoyed watching your video. Kudos to you. You are a wonderful Mom for sure.
Tee hee! lol - I LOVE it! I felt the kudos 😂 I don’t do it for that but sometimes, just sometimes confirmation from another person let’s you know you’re doing something right. Thank you 😅
Pop for a vacuum sealer. Otherwise, GREAT GIFT! This would be a GREAT thing to do for a family that can't, if a person had the resources. Give your church donation directly.
You are SO right! I just couldn’t do both at the same time and I forgot to take mine. I think she might be of a mature enough age to appreciate it 😀 Waiting for the next holiday or sale
Thank you and it’s thoughtful of you to have a little extra for your family too 😀Most people don’t because they can’t afford to, or think it’s crazy because their kitchen cupboards are too small, or or are completely satisfied shopping for everything week to week. I have to buy sales and my daughter isn’t financially stable enough just yet to shop
Thank you. I was shocked by 2-3 comments asking what she was going to do with all that food. At first I didn’t understand. This is how we always keep our house. (Usually shopping deals- this one pinched the purse a little) I went through job loss and didn’t have. Never again will anyone in my family go through that
Expired dates are just dates for store to get it sold.The products are good for a long time Walmart tortilla chip is amazingwe got our pantries at Lowes
It’s Alabama- I think it’s too high. It stings the pocketbook for sure. It should be free for basic groceries. But my representatives feel other things are MUCH more important 😂
New subscriber enjoy your shopping. I have seen other TH-camrs put baking soda on steaks by putting on overnight then rinsing and says tenderizes any steak. And Paula Dean's son says score opposite way from marble to tenderize. Maybe search cause I hate tough steak.
That was Sam’s Club gas! I didn’t even notice it. My daughter told me after we left. . I went back the next day and patiently waited 45+ minutes to get a tank of gas. But our highest at $4.20 was still WAY lower. Any more and you guys will be biking everywhere. I hope it comes down a lot and soon for you
That is wonderful! We don’t have an Amish store within a 50 mile radius. We don’t even have a discount store. The closest discount store is almost a hour away. Hmmm- I might go there when she’s home for Spring or Summer break. Thank you for the idea 💡
Not being funny or intentionally ugly - But I used to that. I campaigned Save the planet. I also planted a tree every year for almost 20 years. Then stuff happened. Now I’d rather wash my hands and throw away the paper towel. My compost pile takes care of the rest
because you just added it to her apartment do you know how much the freezer costs in utilities per month? I am considering adding one, it has to go in my attached garage but its insulated except for the door and I think it will do okay...just curious on utility costs to run one.
Am curious is she supposed to eat all this down and let you know when she is needing to shop for things again or should she keep shopping for deals and keep it stocked up? or will mom keep buying staples at a discount ovee time for this stockpile? (either way is fine, just wondering what the long goal is...)
I know some peanut butter and other foods are healthier and actually last longer, even without preservatives” than the choices we made. I’m not a Non-GMO person because I cannot afford to be. I eat at my financial level of healthy- such as not eating out, cooking most if not all meals from home. I own an air fryer but still like my homemade fries deep fried. If you can do that I encourage it 😀
Watching this video is the first time I've ever heard of tax on groceries. We have tax on prepared foods, but not groceries. That really sucks. I don't understand why food is taxed. Smh
When buying to fill a freezer consider how is it packaged and how much space will it take up.i vacuum seal meats and our freezer is stocked for a yr.i buy items in bulk online and I'm stocked for a yr.
You are SO right. I vacuum seal my stuff. I haven’t bought her one yet. I forgot to pack mine to take and use. They are a little pricey and this trip I could do food only. I’m trying to get a years worth of food. Maybe one day. I just chip away a little bit at a time 😀
I coupon so much stuff at CVS . I had the care pass but I had gave it up when I took a coupon break. Always free oral care ! and lots of cheap items for myself , my mom and my grammom. At Christmas I coupon for local group the house homeless men and gets them back on their feet. Share the wealth couponers.
CVS is amazing once you learn to work the deals and start getting really good CRT’s 😀 Doing it every week became more of a stress than a joy - like you I backed off. And oh yeah you HAVE to give the toothpaste and a lot of shampoo/conditioner away. It’s too much. Like you said share the wealth through couponing 😀
It is! I’ve even told her to keep a small amount of cash for dire emergencies. She’s still a college student so it’s really hard for someone when they start “adulting “ I just tell her take baby steps

Also I’ve been watching Finland lately- the happiest place. Your government programs are wonderful. I started reading Russian history and I’ve learned SO much
I love this video!!! Amazing what you did for her!! I live in NYC and I wish I could stock pile but I have no where to put it. There’s no space in my apartment.
This was so great! A wonderful mom doing her mom thing and great ideas for creating a pantry
Tee hee! You know how we moms roll 😂 baby girl wasn’t eating a real meal everyday. Thank you we used what we could afford
this is so sweet. im 32 and have a stocked pantry, but my mom still comes over and brings me her excess costco loot. popcorn, crescents, and ice cream tub this week for my kids bc she knows we are on a tight budget and im not buying snacks right now. it is just so sweet that you're helping your daughter out. she wants to cook, thats great!!! i didnt cook in my early 20s. didnt learn until i got married at 25.
I bought a freezer and managed to get it into my SUV! Perfect fit! Yay! Glad I bought mine over a year ago!
How in the world did you manage to get a freezer when people couldn’t find one anywhere? I’m happy for you. I think they’re the best investment ever : )
Great job teaching you daughter about money and budgeting. One thing many parents don't do !! This was a big priority for me and my daughter. She is a amazing saver. Only debt she currently has is student loans. Some she college she didn't even take loans for. Parents do you kids a favor and teach them about money before they are even in school ! When they start asking you to buy them that toy , tell them how much that toy or so they can save and don't forget the taxes !!
You’re so right! And I love it- don’t forget the taxes 😂 that’s part of it
Last time I was in that position a friend used a tarp to help me 👌💪👍👍♥️so I now have a tarp in every vehicle. That was a awesome deal on the freezer 😉 good video
Thank you! You are SO absolutely right 😁 I know about the tarps. I use them in my home and moving things like dirt and mulch and all sorts of things. In a pinch a big piece of cardboard will work depending on where I’m moving something 😀
@@poorandposh8231 hadn't thought of that! Awesome idea thanks 👍 nice to have found your channel 🙂
Love it!! You are such a great role model. May God continue to bless you and your family. You have inspired me to start my pantry in a small budget friendly way. Thank you
Wow and Yay!!! That is the best thing I’ve heard all year 😃 I’m so excited- you’ve got this 😁
🥰We are so alike got to take care of our families. Great job Momma Bear and God Bless you.
You are so right- thank you : )
I love that you are doing this for your daughter. I can see myself doing the same for my daughter when she is older and moves out. ❤💕❤
you are such a wonderful mom. i wish that there were more of you. God bless you
I had to chortle! You are a great mother... I have two affluent parents and I am an only child... Not all parents care about their children like you do. I'm college educated and have done nothing really wrong in life. You rock! Thank you for the video! 🤗
I do the same thing with my daughter. I stocked up her freezer and her pantry. She has my granddaughter and i want to make sure they eat. Makes me sleep alot better at night just knowing they are fed and ok.
New to your channel, really liked how you started your daughter out on her pantry .
Thank you for sharing.
The bookshelf for the pantry is such a great idea!
Whew- thank you. After talking it through we had to figure a place, how much storage space we needed right then and something affordable 😀
We used some of our stock up to pad granddaughter's pantry. We can replace a little at a time.
That’s smart thinking
You're so kind to her I just bought that a little bit bigger than that freezer chest I just bought one that's a little bit bigger but now I'm gonna get it 1 of that size for my other 2 daughters thank you great idea
As a mom you know it’s so easy to show kindness to your children when you want what’s best for them. Even easier when they appreciate and love you for it 😁 Look at you - going out to get TWO freezers for your babies. That’s a mom!
My mom did this for me. Now I do for my kids.
Ooohh! I love it! I’m tearing up. Now that’s a family tradition worth keeping
I have preached and preached to my grown kids. Daughter and her family are leaving on a cruise Saturday. They have nothing stored. Stresses me out. I plan to go to her house( an hour away) and clean her house while she's gone. Another thing she lacks in. They make fun of me, roll their eyes and ask of I want their scraps to vacuum seal or can. My son is marginally better but not much. Daughter has a 7 year old and son has 3 yr. and 6 months. I've stored diapers. Made them both a power out box for Christmas. I can't afford to stock their homes. They would just laugh at me. Daughter in law is difficult sometimes and she would say I'm meddling. So I just keep stocking my place but it's a small log cabin in the woods and I don't have room to house them. That's 7 more people. What gets me is they know I won't let the babies go hungry and they are their bargaining chip.
Bless your heart! I can only imagine. I don’t understand some people. I’m not a “doomsday” person nor do I get extra food for what they call SHTF. It’s just practical. We have tornadoes, job losses and it costs SO much to go to one store every week to buy ALL your groceries. You’re good to them. I would want to dismiss them, but like you said they’re family and you can’t let a child go hungry . For their sake I hope they don’t need you. Meanwhile little momma - keep doing what moms have done for years. . . protect you family however you can
The honey in the bear usually has corn syrup mixed in. I found that out from my cousin who works for the FDA. 😳
Thank you. . . That’s it! I knew I heard something about that honey a while back but wasn’t sure what
@@poorandposh8231 I was thinking the same about the honey. Check the ingredients.
Mothers are the best! Don't forget though that you can have some of that shipped to her with free shipping from those stores and also stock up at your place and then take it with you instead of going to the store when you get there.
What a wonderful blessing to have a mother like you!
Thank you but my sweet daughter is the reason I don’t mind. She’s working and going to school full time and NEVER complains.
Such a great feeling of God's grace and love. Many Blessings to all, stay safe and always Blessed 🙌 💞
Thank you SO much and wishing the same to you and yours : )
You are such an awesome mom doing this for your daughter. My mom does me the same way. Stay as awesome as you are, you will keep getting your blessings.
You sound like an amazingly wonderful person- you apparently appreciate and love your mom. And as a mother it gives us great joy to have children like you. I claim and appreciate all my little blessings- thank you : )
@@poorandposh8231 yes I do love my mom. You sound so wonderful and caring.we need more mom's like you and my mom. My mom struggle taking care of 6 kids by herself on a teacher's salary after my dad died. She did an awesome job. I try to immolate after her with my sons.
@@melaniesilas9313 I think you’ll do an amazing job! Your boys are lucky to have you : )
@@poorandposh8231 we are officially family you and I.🙃
Thank you so much for your video. And I would have never thought to buy book shelves to use as a pantry.👍
That’s great you are financially able to buy for your daughter as well as for you 😀
Thank you. - I’m grateful I was able to do it (with some help from my mom) while sooo many people can’t afford food for their own house
Loved this video! There’s nothing like giving to help your heart 😁💯💕
Thank you! So glad you like, watched and took the time to comment. And you’re right - you forget about “self” when you doing something for someone else - even if it is family 😁
Where did you get the stand alone pantries? I need some just like those.
You're such a mom! I have to share this with my daughter. The world.needs to know that their are still grest mom's like us. 👍
FYI - I used to buy the large cans of cheese when the kids lived at home. We then stopped but I found out from another blogger that it can be frozen. It froze wonderfully and there was no change in texture when thawed. Yeah!
How we love our babies, We do the same when We visit our daughter and grandbabies, it’s the motherly thing to do🙏🏼🤗😘🥰
We do 🥰 And it never ends does it : )
When my brother n wife n baby moved back n into our house there were 7 of us living on dad's pay at A&P store dad said he'd have to go to bank or store for advance on pay for food so as I was the one who shopped for groceries idisclosed every week I got a couple extra cans food n hid them n there was enuf to get us thru the week. Dad was furious that I did that n said he knew idy done that he'd thrown it out n yard. I don't know y anger as he grew up dirt poor maybe w.w. 2 hoarding but that lesson n ihad food stored got me thru 2 years n ,4 mo's covid lockdown so plz keep prepping as u never know when you'll need it
Our walmart had that freezer on sale as well. $120 here. So, I definitely bought one...and a foodsaver for $45
SCORE!!!
What!! Steal of a deal. I’m so happy for you! Remember just 2 years ago you couldn’t even find one 😂 And the food saver- no way. I paid quite a bit more from mine a few years ago but I’ve used it enough to have made it worth it
A freezer is such a blessing!
Hi there!!! I think so too! I offered my son one and he said no. But he lives close enough to run by my house. My daughter thought it was the best thing ever 😂
I live in Mexico and I've been prepping for almost a year now I'm prepping more and more twice a week
Items like soy sauce and other high salt items rarely go bad. Salt is a preservative after all. And most dates are best buy not expiration so as long as an item looks and smells ok, I usually use it anyways, never mind the date.
I’m happy you said it! The chicken wings I’ve noticed that same tint. Something is happening. Looking for a butcher
We use tortillas from sams.for breakfast sandwich, hot dogs, sandwich rolls, anything you put on bread. Also Greek flat bread, dita breaks too. Less money less carbs
We do too! Well not Greek flat bread- if the price is right I’ll try it. Thank you for the tip 😀
I love your daughter ❤️ she's stressed on her budget. Good girl...The chickpeas are low in Texas as well.
Thank you. She gets me right in the middle of my heart. Good - Looks like I might need to add a flat of chickpeas to her next pickup
Hi my name is sharon and I just wanted to say thank you for your channel and your video and i am new to your channel video and i love how you did the book shelves very very nice beautiful job with everything for your daughter ok as always stay safe and blessed
Thank you Sharon so much for joining 🙏 And I hope you stick around : ) I just share whatever I do to maybe inspire others. I just finished a weekly meal prep- might no be as good exciting 😂
That corn bread is the best! What we do for our children :-) i do the same Love my kids. Enjoyed watching your video. Kudos to you. You are a wonderful Mom for sure.
great to stock pile food but i also have other ways to open cans those that dont have pull tabs also have other way to cook food when power is out
Your a great mom for helping your daughter nice tour.💯👍💯☘️💯💕💯👏💯✌️💯🙏💯🌟💯😋💯🥰💯🌍💯
Tee hee! lol - I LOVE it! I felt the kudos 😂 I don’t do it for that but sometimes, just sometimes confirmation from another person let’s you know you’re doing something right. Thank you 😅
That was so nice of you 🤗. Thank you for sharing & blessings 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great job! What a blessing for your daugher
Thank you : )
Pop for a vacuum sealer. Otherwise, GREAT GIFT! This would be a GREAT thing to do for a family that can't, if a person had the resources. Give your church donation directly.
You are SO right! I just couldn’t do both at the same time and I forgot to take mine. I think she might be of a mature enough age to appreciate it 😀 Waiting for the next holiday or sale
You did an amazing job! I’m so concerned about my family who aren’t stocking food. I’m trying to buy extra to make sure o can help them out
Thank you and it’s thoughtful of you to have a little extra for your family too 😀Most people don’t because they can’t afford to, or think it’s crazy because their kitchen cupboards are too small, or or are completely satisfied shopping for everything week to week. I have to buy sales and my daughter isn’t financially stable enough just yet to shop
It was so nice of you to stock her up like that. I just found your channel and subscribed.
Thank you so much! Welcome 😃 most importantly thank you for taking a moment to comment
I think for anyone who can spare a bit more sometimes it’s good to stock up and that’s lovely of you
Thank you. I was shocked by 2-3 comments asking what she was going to do with all that food. At first I didn’t understand. This is how we always keep our house. (Usually shopping deals- this one pinched the purse a little) I went through job loss and didn’t have. Never again will anyone in my family go through that
@@poorandposh8231 bless you :)
Great job! This brings me great joy
Good thought .. but you need canned and or dry goods if and when the electricity dissappear s..
It's good to be well rounded. A generator could help too!
Dear daughter❤. You are insanely blessed. ❤
Expired dates are just dates for store to get it sold.The products are good for a long time Walmart tortilla chip is amazingwe got our pantries at Lowes
Such a loving & thoughtful mother to stock up for your daughter. Wow do you pay 10% tax on groceries? What state is this?
It’s Alabama- I think it’s too high. It stings the pocketbook for sure. It should be free for basic groceries. But my representatives feel other things are MUCH more important 😂
I hope you did not tilt that freezer. Also you need to let that sit for 24 hrs then plug it in and let it run for 24 hrs before filling.
Ok I’m intrigued to hear more about the tater tot dish that involves the hot dog chili! Tell me more! Lol
I’ll do it my meal prep coming up soon. It’s my version of a semi-healthy junk food. Lol- everything is fried or canned processed 😂 but we love them 😀
Nice haul. It would be awesome if you would adopt me and stock my pantry and freezer too. lol
New subscriber enjoy your shopping. I have seen other TH-camrs put baking soda on steaks by putting on overnight then rinsing and says tenderizes any steak. And Paula Dean's son says score opposite way from marble to tenderize. Maybe search cause I hate tough steak.
Hello! And thank you. I hope you stick around 😀 Thank you for the tip! We’re going to try it. I hate tough steak too 😂
Buying meat in bulk is a good buy, but its the dividing up part that sucks! TFS
I know right! But it was so much easier with two people doing it.
I love your gas prices, in California the cheapest is $5.75 per gal today. Ouch,
That was Sam’s Club gas! I didn’t even notice it. My daughter told me after we left. . I went back the next day and patiently waited 45+ minutes to get a tank of gas. But our highest at $4.20 was still WAY lower. Any more and you guys will be biking everywhere. I hope it comes down a lot and soon for you
I am bless to be able to shop with Amish, they have a salvage store a GOD send
That is wonderful! We don’t have an Amish store within a 50 mile radius. We don’t even have a discount store. The closest discount store is almost a hour away. Hmmm- I might go there when she’s home for Spring or Summer break. Thank you for the idea 💡
New subscriber!😀
GOOD JOB MOM❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. I use to do this for my daughter too.
Awww - it IS a mom thing isn’t it 😀 I’m glad your baby has you
im in AZ, niether costco nor sams has yeast. i didnt start looking until last month when i began baking bread.
Save more money and the trees by using dish cloths and tea towels instead of paper towels.
Not being funny or intentionally ugly - But I used to that. I campaigned Save the planet. I also planted a tree every year for almost 20 years. Then stuff happened. Now I’d rather wash my hands and throw away the paper towel. My compost pile takes care of the rest
because you just added it to her apartment do you know how much the freezer costs in utilities per month? I am considering adding one, it has to go in my attached garage but its insulated except for the door and I think it will do okay...just curious on utility costs to run one.
Am curious is she supposed to eat all this down and let you know when she is needing to shop for things again or should she keep shopping for deals and keep it stocked up? or will mom keep buying staples at a discount ovee time for this stockpile? (either way is fine, just wondering what the long goal is...)
I bought that same freezer last week.
I was told to look for peanut butter with the ingredients being just peanuts. Not the one hydrogenated oil and the other additives. Your thoughts?
I know some peanut butter and other foods are healthier and actually last longer, even without preservatives” than the choices we made. I’m not a Non-GMO person because I cannot afford to be. I eat at my financial level of healthy- such as not eating out, cooking most if not all meals from home. I own an air fryer but still like my homemade fries deep fried. If you can do that I encourage it 😀
Subscribed because of how amazing you are as a mum ❤
HOLY SH!T...10% SALES TAX?!?
I guess I shouldn't complain about our 5.5% here in Wisconsin! ~GRATEFUL~
Watching this video is the first time I've ever heard of tax on groceries. We have tax on prepared foods, but not groceries. That really sucks. I don't understand why food is taxed. Smh
@@MissChemisse because our government is greedy and corrupt!
Way to go Mom! What State are you in? The freezer you brought would be in my price range but in Texas I'm sure it would be more than $169.
North Alabama - I was VERY happy with that price too. I don’t see them that often anymore
Wow what state has 10% grocery tax? That's ridiculously unfair. I'm in MD state state is 6% but no tax on food except soda and candy
Ikr! North Alabama- I’m sure you see us in the news quite often regarding things our representative think are more important than tax free food : (
When buying to fill a freezer consider how is it packaged and how much space will it take up.i vacuum seal meats and our freezer is stocked for a yr.i buy items in bulk online and I'm stocked for a yr.
You are SO right. I vacuum seal my stuff. I haven’t bought her one yet. I forgot to pack mine to take and use. They are a little pricey and this trip I could do food only. I’m trying to get a years worth of food. Maybe one day. I just chip away a little bit at a time 😀
I coupon so much stuff at CVS . I had the care pass but I had gave it up when I took a coupon break.
Always free oral care ! and lots of cheap items for myself , my mom and my grammom. At Christmas I coupon for local group the house homeless men and gets them back on their feet. Share the wealth couponers.
CVS is amazing once you learn to work the deals and start getting really good CRT’s 😀 Doing it every week became more of a stress than a joy - like you I backed off. And oh yeah you HAVE to give the toothpaste and a lot of shampoo/conditioner away. It’s too much. Like you said share the wealth through couponing 😀
Wonderful shopping and a nice pantry😀
Thank you 🙏
My stores aren't low on any food. All shelves are fully stocked
You did your girl some good that day.
Thank you 😁 Sometimes they just need a jump start : )
Putting away is the hardest part
It is! I’ve even told her to keep a small amount of cash for dire emergencies. She’s still a college student so it’s really hard for someone when they start “adulting “ I just tell her take baby steps
Peanut butter is not all the same. Not even close.
Love your videos
great video!!!!
