For the eggs I open the carton and run my finger accrossvthe tops of the eggs. If they are broke they will stick to the carton and won't move when I run my fingers accross them.
Looks like you have some awesome deals. I find myself store hopping a little more these days. I usually split it up into 2 days...I'm a whole lot older and it just wears me out. Lol. Thanks for sharing! ❤️
Rao’s at Sams club for (2 ) 30 oz bottles was $8.99 I was there today. Aldis black beans really good. I stock my pantry with sale items saves a lot, I could imagine shopping regular weekly prices.
To save you a whole lotta trouble with the eggs. I pick the carton up, look underneath, check the sides then open it up and look on top. If theres no cracks visible and the carton doesnt look wet. Its a winner. Saves you from picking up the eggs, one at a time and swapping them. Of course if its a styrofoamcarton youre screwed..😂🤣 With the Avacados, if you gently push down on the top of the avacado (where the stem is, or is normally located) , you want a little bit of give. If its rock solid, its not ripe. If its super soft when you push down with your finger, its overripe. You can thank me later.😊
Basically the unsalted is what she used in baking the salted is what you use for the table because some recipes say unsalted butter because you’re going to add salt to it all I do is cut my added salt and half if I’m using salted butter problem solved
I check my produce too when shopping. I agree with you on the Aldi bread, it is dry. Lately our Sam's has been out of toilet paper. I'm hoping they will restock soon. We are down to our last individual pack. Shopping is exhausting. I usually need an entire day to recoup. Especially if I share the haul within the same day. Have a great day🙂
Oh no to the toilet paper. Yes to completely exhausted after shopping. After this last one I decided to take the next day to recoup. And I'm happy to hear I'm not the only one that checks the produce. 😊. Happy Wednesday!
Good morning sweet Meghan, I'm back lol. No I haven't been sick just rearranging my house and switching from all things plastic to all things glass,stainless steel, and cast iron. I was a Tupperware lady many years ago so I'm sure you have an idea how much plastic I had to go through. It was hard but I think health wise glass,stainless steel, and cast iron are much better. I have almost all of my food's like cereal and such all put in glass and the boxes are gone😫. I have switched around my cabinets to make more sense (now that I've gotten rid of the plastic). 😲. Good shopping but I have a few tricks for you. Always turn the fresh things over and look at the bottom, plus always reach for the stuff way in the back because sometimes people have it in their cart only to end up putting it back and along comes you and you grab it only to find out the next day that it has started to rot😲🤑😭😭😭. I have to say your other problem (the e.r. one) a apple a day keeps the Dr. away 😆, yup lots of fiber there lol. After you get better you should use a product called witch hazel, it shrinks the tissue and helps keep them down😆. You can also every once in a while sit on a baggie of ice👍. Works wonders. Okay enough said because I have a lot of your videos to catch up on. See you in the next video👀 💪👍.
I wondered where you were. Glad to hear all is well and your house is getting back in order! Fantastic job! I'm all about the witch hazel! Things are getting MUCH better and more fiber has been a fantastic help for me!
@@Thegrocerylady A guy that lives down the road from me actually cuts the tree's down that the witch hazel is made from, pretty cool isn't it lol. I'm going through my change of life😭😭😭 I can't stand it. I'm such a basket case.
If you buy the big turkey you can make sandwiches out if them after Thanksgiving. Just butter some bread add the turkey sprinkle some salt - one good sandwich. If you want to add some flavour maybe add branston?
I used to work for Jamba Juice and I will only drink Simply Orange because the other stuff is way too acidic after being spoiled with fresh squeezed daily.
Hi this is sharon I just wanted to say you did a awesome job in your morning shopping Haul with your sister help ok as always stay safe and blessed may God continue to bless you and your family and your home until your next video stay
Meijer isn’t cheaper on regular stuff, but when they have sales, they beat almost any place. Especially the 10/10 get the 11th free. I stock up during those sales.
Love your videos just found ya just some info smoothies deplete fiber it gets rid of most of the fiber because of the way it is broken down during juicing instead of by the body so you lose alot of fiber when juicing hope this helps
I love Aldi!! Walmart sometimes is close on some things. Staples I do mostly at Aldi, then hit sales for Mejier, last Walmart for things I could not find. I do the same with the eggs, if I find 2 cartons that has one each broken, I just take a good one to replace a broken one. That way one carton has 2 broken eggs and I have a good set!
Hi Meghan :) For extra fiber when you have the 'roids it's really great to have 2 teaspoons of psyllium husks every day. You can just add it to your oatmeal/smoothie/on yoghurt which ever you prefer :) remember to drink lots of water when eating psyllium husks. Love from Denmark
Thank you so much Ida! I've been looking at that, so I'm glad you mentioned it. I currently use Chia seeds and flax seed in my oatmeal. I'll check out the psyllium husks again.
You mentioned in this video that you did a taste test of various bottled pasta sauces in another video, but I cant find which video that is buried in. Which were the ones the avoid vs the ones you'd buy again (besides obviously Rao's).
Meijer an Sam's club chicken are both Tyson chicken .sometimes Sam's club has the chicken cheaper. Also Aldi's fresh chicken breast is good quality an sometimes 1.99 of or less
Good morning! We did the same thing yesterday and I'm wore tf out today! 😂😭 I feel you on trying to eat better - I got diagnosed with hypothyroidism and nafld a few months ago and I'm having to completely revamp my entire diet.
Hello! Yes, it is exhausting. So sorry to hear about your diagnoises. That's SO tough. I had a lot of thyroid issues for about 4 years... mine was pregnancy induced. I sure hope you able to get things worked out. 🙏🏻
They think mine could have been too and it just wasn't caught until now - which I kinda laugh at cuz my youngest is six! 😂 It is what it is though, and hopefully I can get to feeling better soon!
Hi Holly. Cut in half the shortest way, scoop out the seeds. Pressure cooker for 7 minutes on high + cup of water. Then use a fork to get spaghetti squash out. Salt, pepper, olive oil or butter. Yum!
Yes, here in Spain the price on the shelf is the price you pay. Tax is calculated into it. And then in your receipt you can see the tax breakdown, but not per item. You get products at 4%, 10% or 21%. So you can see how much money you paid of tax per each of those 3 categories. Hope this made sense! :)
Have you taken into account how much gas you are using going from one store to another store sometimes it works out to cost a lot more so really your not saving much once you add your gas on top of your groceries x
Thankfully all my stores are VERY close to each other. 3 in the same strip mall and the other two just minutes from home. Great thing to consider though.
Adult problems when you can’t find stuff in the store. It is exhausting and shouldn’t be as draining. Hope you packed snacks and drinks for in Between stores and get your second wind. Yeast is way cheap at sams and you can keep it in the freezer to last for a longtime. I keep in the fridge and it is amazing. Dish soap brings you joy then in the cart! You saved enough to pay for it. Ugh on sams being closed.
Adult problems! 😂 Thanks for the Sam's tip. I will definitely look into that. I've been going through yeast pretty fast lately, so a bigger container would be well worth it!

I usually turn the eggs in the carton. If they are broke on bottom they usually weld themselves to the carton and won’t spin.

Thanks for the reminder to buy more TP. Just ordered some off Amazon.
Oh good!! It's NEVER good to run out of TP!
I used to work for Jamba Juice and I will only drink Simply Orange because the other stuff is way too acidic after being spoiled with fresh squeezed daily.
I should give that a try. The kids keep saying it tastes lemony. And yes, fresh squeezed is so good!
Wow such commitment for grocery shopping 👍🏽💪🏾 go sister

I think a few cents extra here and there is ok for splurging on organic if your saving $1 here and there on other items .. they offset each other

What the difference between full cream and 2% milk i live in Australia and we have lite milk, full cream, and skinny milk
It sounds like lite milk = 2% and full cream = whole milk. Skinny milk = skim
Did you add up the price to see how much you save by doing it this way
I save hundreds. $300-$500 a month 😊
You usually have to get the toilet paper first thing in the morning
Good to know!
Where are the “other” videos you mention?
My dad can feel the tops and know if it is broken or not on eggs
Oooo... interesting. There must be a method to it! 😊
