Thanks for sharing your grocery haul and meal planning. Things have definitely changed, my household is just myself and my 19 year old son, we used to eat out a lot and we can't afford to anymore. I've been cooking a lot more and having to really watch every penny spent. Making lots of desserts, tacos, crockpot chili and beans and rice.
Yes, we make pizza at home, every Friday night. My husband and mother (94 years young) always look forward to it, and the question of the day is always 'what kind of pizza tonight?' I cheat and buy the ball of fresh dough at Trader Joe's for about $1.50. I really like regular crushed tomatoes for the sauce, and stock up on packages of cheese when they are on sale. Each pizza only costs about $5. plus whatever toppings might be in the fridge. Yum! Yours and Titus' looked very delicious!
So happy every time i see a video from you. And its oddly comforting that others notice the change in price, its so discouraging but to know we're in it together, its just makes me think of the quote Jo uses in the 90s Little Women movie "necessity is indeed the mother of invention" us women having to be pioneers in a way and relating to eachother and these characters we've read about and admired. Im so thankful for those stories and for women like you. ❤
The past 4 years have been a nightmare for families trying to buy food. Hopefully, that will change soon.🤞🇺🇲 I love your kitchen cabinets. Very pretty wood.
You do realize a President cannot lower food prices, VP cannot make laws or change em! The next president will have few options to significantly or quickly lower food costs - though voters believe otherwise. A majority of U.S. consumers believe elected officials, of one party or the other, can help lower their grocery bills - an expectation that could help swing the election, given how important inflation is to likely voters in 2024. The truth is likely to disappoint them. Despite what both Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are promising on the campaign trail, the next leader of the free world has limited options to lower food costs in the speedy or widespread way many voters might hope. (Just ask President Joe Biden, who struggled for much of his presidency to show Americans he was reining in grocery prices). That said, POLITICO spoke to a number of economists who argued there are good reasons to go after some of the drivers of high food costs, even if the impacts won’t be felt for some time. POLITICO took a look at some of the policies Biden, Harris and Trump have used, or said they plan to use, to address high food prices and the limitations of each. Neither the Harris nor Trump campaigns responded to a request for comment. www.politico.com/interactives/2024/food-cost-price-harris-trump-biden/
Whats really scary? How many so called believer have embraced a two fold child of hell and call it of God! God will never tempt His people with such evil, Trump IS a great deceiver and John was warning us about such deception. He is the opposite of everything Jesus taught us to be. Only Reprobate would embrace such evil!
@@tammybailey2264 Our very lives may count on it, it’s her channel and she’s aloud to say how expensive groceries are. What good is free speech ? What really troubles me, Sarah didn’t say anything that wasn’t true, and it bothers you.
Sarah, I agree with you on prices being higher. I notice you purchase store brands and that’s a great idea. A lot of people won’t buy store brand but it’s just as good and less expensive. The pizzas looked delicious.
I make A LOT of pizza. I have a delicious sourdough pizza crust recipe and a banging homemade sauce recipe. Pizza sauce 1-15oz can tomato sauce 1-6oz can tomato paste 1tbls ground oregano 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp ground smoked paprika Mix together, this is enough sauce for 3 of my big round pizza's. I try very hard to make what i can from scratch because the ingredients in food scare the living heck out of me. We have ALL plain white corelle dishes. It's American made and the factory is just up the road from where i live AND the big kicker is, it's lead free. Back when i had FB i use to follow a girl named lead free Mamma. She tested everything and found that most dishes actually have lead in them. Especially any dishes that have white or colored paint on them. I was pretty shocked 😮.
Sarah, I know what you mean about choosing to eat out or cook something with groceries that you purchased. I cook most every night and we seldom eat out. The pizza looks delicious! I need to try that pizza crust! Have a blessed day!🙏🏻🍂🧡🍁
I make a taco pizza that us so so good,l use Pillsbury dough and it great and so easy.you actually got alot if food for $ 148 prices in Canada are high as well....we shop at 3 different stores to keep cost done.
I make sourdough discard pizza (from Farmhouse on Boone) and my husband likes to make an Against the Grain copycat pizza (tapioca flour based). We usually just do multi cheese and maybe onion for toppings, but I also like olives and peppers and mushrooms and sometimes pesto.
Hi sweet friend, Good to see you today. Enjoyed your grocery shopping, l shop at Wal-Mart all the time, really like their prices, and you can literally buy anything there you need. Your pizzas looked yummy. All is well with us, hope ya'll are all doing great. Take care. Luv and blessings ❤❤❤
Hi Sarah! You're so right groceries have totally gotten outrageous! And you really can't afford to but groceries & go out to eat.. or we sure can't! But Hindi we would rather eat at home, it just taste much better to me! But I cook 5-6 nights a week. We do usually eat somewhere after church on Sunday's unless i put something in the crockpot on Saturday night. Or we'll take the kids to McDonald's or Taco Bell on Saturday night as a treat, they love it! But when it comes to fruit we eat so much of it! I have to buy bananas at least 8 at the time, a huge bag of green seedless grapes, a bag of apples, the largest container of strawberries & blueberries, a box of 12 cups of mandarin oranges these are always in the fridge or pantry.. then sometimes I'll pick up a watermelon, cantaloupe, pineapple, blackberries or mangos. There's 4 adults & 3 babies.. 5, 3 & 1. We all eat lots of fruit, especially the kids! They'll eat fruit bowls for breakfast sometimes, noon snack, before bed, the oldest takes it to school. I almost live on the grapes! And my husband & son take fruit to work. So we sometimes buy fruit twice a week! Nothing ever lasts, much less go bad! Loll we'd be better of planting trees😂 I don't know about on the west coast, but in Florida right now bananas are only .05¢ a pound, fruit isn't expensive here.. thankfully🙌🏻 I remember eating iced oatmeal cookies even as a small child. Back then you could get the real big ones in the little country stores from A big cookie jar. They were only like 5¢ or 3 for 10¢. I remember those, gingerbread snaps, sugar cookies & butter cookies. In my grandpas & uncles little store they kept the big glass cookie jars on top of those long glass & wood candy cases. Mmm i love to make homemade chicken noodle soup!😋 I'm making shrimp Alfredo tonight, but we like the 5 cheese Texas toast, it has garlic on it too. I do like the chicken in the biscuit crackers! Really good with a little slice of sharp cheddar cheese or the canned squirt cheese. We keep those tortilla wraps in the pantry. The kids like cheese roll ups. We buy the string cheese, everyone likes them to snack on. But I'll shread one on a tortilla wrap & sub it in the microwave for about 20-22 seconds & roll it up, they love them. I pretty much baby😄 everything at Walmart. The only other choices are Publix or Winn Dixie here in our town, or we can ride 20-30 min to Target, which i find all of these much higher on everything than Walmart, especially Publix! We'll go to Target just to be going, but not for groceries, toiletries, cleaners or anything like that. My daughter used to make homemade pizza for us, but we just don't do it.🤷♀️ My husband & the kids only eat cheese or pepperoni, but my son, DIL & myself like other toppings as well. There's a place in Tampa called "Blaze" we love going to. You order your individual pizza like you would order at subway. Pick your bread, toppings, sauce, cheeses. you can do half pizza & salad or whole pizza. They're about the size of A small pizza from Dominos or Pizza Hut. And they're so delicious! That one place I can clean my plate! Don't do that too often, thus why i cook at home mostly. Enjoyed the video & just sharing things today! Yeah I know i got a little long winded.. but you know me 🤷♀️😄 I pray you have a blessed week!🙏🏻
Wow! I went to all white and clear glass dishes , cups and glasses about 2 years ago. I also don't care if they don't match. So easy and if one breaks, easier to replace. Only requirement is the dishes must be white and the glasses must be clear. Simple
Frozen veg would be cheaper Homemade croutons would be cheaper peel and freeze banana Fresh pineapple is cheaper than tins Where you can buy items In bulk (rice, pulses pasta etc
Looks like you love tasty savory food…..your pizza looks so good…yummy. I love mesquite and barbecue chips. I try not to buy them too much because I can’t stop eating them. I love spicy food. Hope you are having a great day ♥️
It's sad that the world has to resort to eating so much processed food because of the high prices. It's nearly impossible to budget for actual healthy food these days. Have you tried sourdough pizza dough?
"This is the pizza I made for Titus and ME," not Titus and I. Leave out the other person, as "the pizza I made for me," as opposed to "the pizza I made for I." It's following a preposition, "for."
Hi Sarah. I have enjoyed watching your videos for several months now. I love that you are intentional about using clean candles in your home. I am also in the process of switching over to non-toxic products and foods. I try to use natural cleaning products, or make my own, though I've not yet completely transitioned; and I've eliminated most processed foods from my home, and am learning to cook from scratch as much as possible. I hope that you and your family continue to expand your non-toxic journey, and find healthy and affordable alternatives. God bless!
I don’t know why ppl keep complains about prices when they don’t shop correctly! Buy bulk and Walmart isn’t the best place! So sick of you You tube ppl complaining! Annoying AF
If you aren't affected by the high prices inflation has caused, even shopping "correctly", then consider yourself blessed. I do shop smart and at cheaper stores and my bill is still twice the price it was before 2019. Instead of being annoyed "af", be grateful the economy hasn't taken it's toll on you like it has on the rest of us.
@@rhiannancaraway it has affected my family but I don’t complain and b*tch about it. I have learned to buy when I need and shop where I see sales and in bulk! You ppl want 1980s prices 😂🤣😂 Big turn off for me seeing complaining
Inflation is world wide and there are people in 3rd world countries who are surviving on much less money than developed countries. Since covid the cost of things have gone crazy, shouldn't people question the reason corporations are raising prices for their products. I'm in Australia.
Groceries are out of sight now. I live alone but I feel it as well. I’m praying every day for changes. God bless.

I'm always confused by people that won't burn a candle because it's not healthy but eat a diet consisting of primarily highly processed foods.
Any little bit helps.

Always love the relaxing music you have in your background
So glad u don’t burn those candles anymore. They are very toxic and not environmentally friendly 👍
Love a good haul! Always interesting to see what other people buy ❤ I look forward to your Monday videos all week!
Thank you!🤎🍂

Love seeing your girls making pizza. They look so happy.
Your prices may be high for you, but Sarah here in Canada I would get half that many groceries for $148.00. ❤ I always enjoy your videos.
That’s crazy!🥹
I always made Friday night pizzas. Whatever was in the garden went on top. Some weeks it was just banana peppers. But always good.
Thanks for sharing. We are getting bored of everything it's interesting to see what other people get

That's a lot of food for the price in my opinion. You did good!
I think the prices are more than a little scary. Yikes!
Yes!🥹
Prices for groceries always change. When I first got married eons ago, our budget for groceries was 15.00 a week.
Wow!
You have probably shared this before but how do you make your laundry soap?
I have a video about it.🤍
Hi Sarah, great shopping haul, just wondered what you ment about the candles it being “clean?” Xx
Having clean ingredients.🤍
