Karrie a joke for you : you know what the most expensive car is these days? " A GROCERY CART" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love that 🤣🤣🤣🤣
#TRUTH! 😂
😂 right
Funny 😂 but so truthful lol
That's the truth...ridiculous how much food is costing a family nowadays. I went to Aldi and spent 333 dollars for a family of 4. That's a grocery haul for 2 weeks. Kills me, because that would have cost me about 200 some time ago. Sad...middle class family struggling like we are. I feel for you all!! ❤
It’s hard to stick to a budget these days. I’ve found that eliminating processed and packaged foods has helped my budget tremendously. We eat a lot of sheet pan dinners these days with fresh meats I buy at a local farm and fresh veggies and fruits from farmers markets. Seems to be working for us pretty well. I’ve started baking from scratch, muffins and egg bites and such, that’s a money saver as well. Thanks for the tips, us Ladies have to stick together and share secrets to survive. ❤
You’re on the right path! Thanks for sharing. Love menu planning and food haul videos to go along with budgeting. We can all stay accountable together!!
I gotta say. Karrie was right about that flatbread pizza. It’s so good!!!! Hubby and I will be buying more. Thanks Karrie.
I'm so excited for you. Being debt free has given me such peace. It just takes discipline and it's ok to say no to things. You're not being the "bad guy". Keep your eye on the prize. You can do it! I look forward to your updates.
Love the Dave Ramsey program. I agree groceries will kill a budget if you don’t follow the beans and rice rice and beans program. Lol🎉
I'm so encouraged by your enthusiasm and drive to become debt free. We are debt free and so is our son. We are also encouraging other family members to do the same. It is so freeing. Sometimes you have to wait a whi!e for things, but it makes you appreciate them all the more. The Dave Ramsey plan works. We are proof. Sometimes it isn't easy or popular, but it is the right path. Keep up the good work. I always look forward to your videos!
Great news on the cutting back on non nutrient dense junky snack foods, another thing to try to get them to eat is a piece of fruit or dried fruits,
when I shopping I buy fruit that's on sale and the same for veggies, I need dairy I try to buy sales but I find cheese areaways on sale and now eggs are back down in price, I do buy cereal but only what's on sale. Eating out is costly but I think need a break so 2 times a month is what I call pretty good. I don't do fast food or coffee out.
Good for you for setting goals to spend less on groceries. The snacks especially add up! You'll have to let us know how your kids are doing with this. Real food instead of goldfish crackers and chips! I love it! When I was growing up my mom never bought snacks. I'd be really hungry before dinner and she'd hand me a carrot or a big cabbage leaf to tide me over until dinner. I grew up with lots of casseroles. She beefed up recipes with beans. When we had chicken, we would eat the whole thing, including the back!!!!
That's what we do too with the whole snack situation. We'll buy chips sometimes and random stuff at other times but rarely have snacks. It helps so much and by feeding them better foods, they'll stay full longer.
You will save so much money if you don’t go out to eat. And it’s just healthier cooking at home. Good for you! Love your honesty 🙏🏼
Just a tip I have used for many years, buy meat in bulk ( especially from a butcher) it is cheaper. I separate into baggies and into the freezer. I also use Dave Ramseys envelope system and tye every dollar app.
We followed Dave Ramsey about 2 years ago and paid off 30k in 6 months. It's very durable, if you sacrifice the extra spending.
Little things like making coffee at home and not eating out makes a huge difference budget wise. I don't find it hard considering service everywhere is terrible, the food/coffee is mediocre and very unhealthy and of course, the prices. My husband and I eat fast food maybe twice a year. I would rather buy quality groceries and eat at home. Our bank account likes it too lol.
This was such an eye opening video. Including dog food and toiletries and eating away from home, I am also curious and am definitely gonna crunch some numbers. I am so curious now and yes we can all cut back somewhere. Prices for literally everything are outrageous and now is most definitely the time to change habits. Also loving the grocery hauls! I think those are some of my favorite things to watch. Who doesn’t like new dinner/ meal ideas. Thanks! Have a good day Karrie
You can make a giant batch of rice krispy treats in less than 5 minutes using the microwave for what you’re paying for the premade ones.
Karrie please keep this up it’s super interesting! I know for us in the uk it’s getting past the point of food poverty for a working family. Hope you manage to make a dent in your savings for your forever home ❤
I was just recently thinking how we spend way too much money on snacks, I’m glad I’m not the only one. I’ve already cut back heaps on eating out because of how crazy expensive it is for our family of 7. In Australia the portions sizes of everything is getting smaller but somehow it costs more 😅
I would LOVE to see a budget video! I’m trying to get my family on a strict budget and pay debt off.
Good job! 👏 We went through Dave Ramsey's class twice and got the basics of it but it was really hard for us to stick to his plan. I discovered the Budget Mom in 2020 and it's been a game changer! We paid off all our debt and still lived life. We are the same with food, it's the one category we spend the most on. You can definitely get creative and save money different ways.
Karrie, if I was your mother…….I would be so proud of you!! You are so mature and wise❤❤❤❤
Omg I am so glad you are sharing the debt snowball! And that hard decision to sit put! That is huge! I’d love to see budget videos!
I've also been trying to cut back on our grocery bill. We cut out some foods that just aren't good for us to start. Also, rather than buying individually packed snacks (that make life a little easier on us parents), I've been buying the regular size and pre packing them myself each week. Takes a little extra prepping on the weekend.
I made a grocery order today and added the rotisserie chicken. Looking forward to trying it.
Food definitely adds up quick! I don’t even want to calculate what we are spending a month!!
Love your food/budget videos! You got this 👏🏻 💪🏼
Nice meal planning have an amazing week pretty friend 💕
I ❤ your grocery hauls. Your pot pie is a stable in our house lol
Groceries are so high don’t see how big families make it.
Buy popcorn that you make on stovetop. Use coconut oil in a pan with a lid. Much healthier and goes a lot further than microwave popcorn.
Grate the onion in food, they will never know it's there but u still get onion ..love to grate in my meatloaf before I cook it. Also keeps it moist
This is exactly what I needed to hear today! Literally had a convo with my husband about this. I would love a budget video please! Thanks ❤
Loved this video!
Very helpful video! Thank you Karrie!
Would love to see your menus in future videos. I’m always struggling to figure out what to make for dinner!
I like your grocery hauls & meal plans. It helps for ideas for my family especially when I am meal planning & my brain is in brain fog.
Thank you. I have missed your grocery hauls.
Ohhh yes! Thanks for sharing 💖
You've got this Karrie! 🙏👍👏❤️🤗
Dave Ramseys plan really works!!! 💖 good luck Karrie! 😀💖
I definitely have adjusted buying snacks
Yummie that wrap looks delicious.
A budget vid would be awesome!!!
You can do it Karrie!!! Great job and just keep your eye on your end goal!!!
Hi Karrie!! Great video! -Holly
I agree food is a killer right now. Here’s some things I’ve done to help. Cook once eat twice on meals. Batch make and freeze your own grab and go breakfast ( waffles and sandwiches work great). Bulk buy meat. Sourdough is your best friend and shockingly not hard. Make ahead a bunch of pizza crusts or pizzas to freeze. Have at least 4 crockpot dump meals in your freezer. Get a rotisserie chicken, shred it and keep it in the fridge for quick meals or freeze it. See what you buy prepackaged that’s easy to make yourself (coffee creamer is one). Once you get in a routine with this stuff you’ll be shocked at the time and money you save. I know I was.
Great to see you again today. praying for your budget and dreams.
That is how I do my weekly menu. I just list what food I have on hand to make and I don't assign meals to a day unless I have to plan around a certain event on a particular day. I cross off the meal after I serve it for dinner. I find assigning meals to a certain day is too restricting and I would rather make whatever I feel like depending on how much effort I feel like putting into it or how much time I have on that day lol.
Hey hey❤❤
We’ve been trying to cut back in our grocery bill too. Thank you for sharing I love seeing your hauls!
I love your kitchen pantry, very nice. Have a great week 😊!
Great haul ❤
Love your channel🦋
Love these types of videos. We all need budget ideas and recipes! I will definitely look up your pot pie recipe! For snacks, my kids love baby carrots they dip in ranch!
Good girl!!! Wish I had realized when I was your age how important being debt free is. I’m older now & yes, debt free. It really is true freedom. 😊❤😊
Love it
The kids could split a sandwich that way they won’t spoil their dinner. Good idea to tell the kids and Dylan no eating new snacks till the others are done, and not buying them to be tempted is good. My hubby and I agreed not to buy chips and other junk stuff and it’s made a difference for sure That’s the items that should be more money and not fresh veg and fruit.
Enjoyed
Congrats girl for your financial road your going on! The Dave Ramsey program was is amazing for sure! Wish you all the best! 🍂
We’re doing the Ramsey steps too so YES, I’d love to hear a budget video!
Keep doing these love this video
I love grocery hauls
This is so hard . Thanks for sharing it’s so encouraging . Also yes I need meal plans !
After you cut your Onions soak them in cold water For about 5-10 minutes and that will soften the flavor. The people who dislike onions more than you will find them more palatable.
Hey Karrie, i love your ideas for getting out of debt. We used to go out to eat every weekend when my husband worked outside the home and made more money. However our budget has changed alot since he works out of the home and doesn't make as much as he used to. I myself have a dairy intolerance. So i have to be careful about what I eat. We eat at home mostly. We treat ourselves to steaks on Fridays. We buy our beef, and bacon at the butcher. We have what we call our big breakfast on Sundays. So we pay cash for our groceries. We have things we sre currently paying off right now, but getting there. I admire you for wanting to reach certain goals. Thank you for sharing.
yay i love the grocery haul/meal plan videos they are inspiring but i love all your videos too :) we use paper plates here too cuts back on dishes :) love beef jerky! thanks for the inspiration you did good on budget with all that meat good job!
I love your haul
Thank you k a r r I e love the Grocery HAUL. Groceries are so expensive. And toiletries Love the Chicken wrap I will be making me one of those looks delicious. Love watching your videos. God bless❤
Love your grocery hauls and really all your content ❤ Would love to see a budget video ❤ Trying to cut back on our grocery bill as well, and it's hard. This inflation is crazy!!
I loved this video! I am also following Dave Ramsey and currently doing the debt snowball. Its definitely not easy and takes a lot of discipline but im excited to one day be debt free! I would love to see more videos about budgeting.
Great video! I like the idea of making a sandwich or wrap instead of eating “snacks”. I know my family eats too many snacky things and they aren’t filling.
Thanks for sharing to make better spending habits 😊
We did Dave Ramsey too. Best decision we ever made. You are so smart to wait on the house until interest rates come down. Please get out of debt first. I am surprised at your grocery bill since you have little kids. Wait until you get teenagers Karrie. You are so smart to cut back now and really find ways to crockpot and stretch those food dollars. I am so proud of you for your authenticity . Live like no one else, so later you can live like no one else.
Karrie, When My grands come over to Nana's I make a whole bunch of cookies , But I use a cake mix. So chocolate i will use chocolate chips, etc, You can use spice cake, vanilla, cake etc. The box cake makes so many more then regular cookie mix just use 2 eggs for cookies and the directions on the box. Just google box cake cookies and you can see all the variations . They are really good and stretch the budget, Just a idea,☺
So far I have fixed your ribs and how you fix frozen green beans and love them!! Oh and your chicken pot pie!!
That is a bunch of food! So lucky your prices where you live :) Great deal finding
I make your pot pie recipe all the time since you shared it on instagram awhile ago! It is one of my youngest son's favorite meals! Also, I have used that lemon pepper rotisserie chicken for the pot pie, so good!!
Hello Karrie! Sorry I missed it on Instagram but will you repost/share your Chicken Pot Pie recipe? Thanks in advance!!😊
Thanks for always being so real ! Everyone is having to spend more than ever these day. I hate it !
Love hearing this! Good for you. Idk , but I found that the more money we had, the more money we spent instead of saved!! Trust me your doing the right thing. Also, the more money we made the more my want list grew!! It took years for me to get it all right but it's so hard . When your poor for so long and then money starts coming in the more greedy I seemed to get 😃.
Good for you! Cant beat the Ramsey plan. Heaven only knows when the economy will improve. Being out of debt, a great goal!
Hey karrie finally getting a chance to watch this 😍 love the grocery haul. I've been doing a lot more baking here lately so I don't have to buy so much snacks. And also been baking my own bread and it's been helping so much
Thanks for the meal ideas 😊
We have been doing the Dave Ramsey plan and have paid off a lot of debt! It does work! Love your channel
Oh your lunch looked yummy
My husband snacks like that too! Haha he will eat a whole box of cereal at night while watching tv!
I hear ya on the price of groceries Karrie, it is INSANE!! The tiny can of no name brand mushrooms that just 2 years ago was 69cents is now $1.99 that’s just 1 example 🙄 Good luck in your budget journey, I too am watching our Pennies 💵
Watching from Michigan…Kim
It’s funny your doing this cut back now, my husband and I are teaching a class on spending at our church on Thursday. Evening .
Hey Karrie, Happy Monday. My favorite kind of chicken is the lemon pepper kind it’s so good. ❤ yeah Im trying to cut back on snacks and soda as well. I find myself eating too many snacks and still being hungry afterwards. I really enjoyed this video of you doing just a grocery haul, meal plan, and putting away all of the groceries. It was such a good change. ❤🥰
My husband is the exact same! I even wake up and know what he snacked on through the night because the wrappers will be on the nightstand lol 😂
I do the same thing to with meats.I also been trying new recipes. Your doing good cause sometimes I spend the same for just two people so congrats on that!!!😁❤
I watch a lot of budget videos and I really like them. I’d love to see how you do your budget. I’m glad you backed out of getting a new place. You have a nice home. You have enough bedrooms and keeping it decluttered will help you feel like you have more house. At least you are not strapped with a mortgage you can’t afford.
I love arm & hammer washing liquid to and I just started watch you about a month or so ago love your videos
Thanks for sharing.
💙💙💙Thanks for sharing!💙💙💙
I love hauls😊
Amazing young woman you are. Good job on your meals and shopping.
Haha my husband and kiddos are the same when it comes to snacking. I don’t keep a lot because they go through them so fast. I do keep bananas and apples, peanut butter and Nutella. My favorite snack is apples and Nutella 😋 my kiddos love it too!
I spend the same on groceries with a family of three. It’s a lot!
Inflation is out of control. My youngest daughter has the same problem. I make meals that can last for a dinner and lunch or snacks. We are in our 60’s, the struggle is real for most all Americans.
Thank you for tipping - so many people nowadays don’t - 45 years ago as a waitress my bills depended on tips - if someone does a service for you tip - common decency- all my grown children tip and tip well - I hammered that lesson in lol- as an older woman someone shopping and delivering my food is tipped - it’s a blessing- I spend about the same on groceries but no eating out- just me and hubby and 2 grandkids whom are over a lot- I’m trying to cut it down also- does include chicken feed and dog food and household items though- occasionally I buy bulk meat to split with the grandbabies parents cause things are tight everywhere
I was a bartender my whole life so I can relate , I always tip & tip well !
I'm doing the same thing. Food prices are crazy now. I went to the store yesterday and we have to make do! LOL
