- FRUGAL LIVING video is here! The cost of living and the price of food has increased so much that many people use a food bank or food pantry to make ends meet. The food pantry is a great resource to obtain food and household supplies. There is no need to go hungry when there are great resources out there for everyone to use, if you qualify. I encourage you to apply to your local food pantry or food bank if you need help with groceries. It's also a great place to meet new people in the community. If you do not qualify for the food pantry or the food bank then please check out your local churches as that could be another option to get help.
FRUGAL LIVING FOOD PANTRY HAUL 2024!
Food Haul & Food Pantry Hauls Are Such A Blessing To Be Able To Have
There is no shame in going to a Food Pantry, a Food Bank or a local church for help with groceries. The cost of food and the cost of living is high. If you have low-income, lower income or no income then the food pantry may be a great option for you! Inflation prices are rapidly increasing, so more people are using their community resources and programs than ever before. Using your local community resources to help offset the cost of food can help you stretch your paycheck or retirement funds further. Keep in mind that sometimes the food has gone bad. There are times I have received items from the food pantry that were spoiled. Sometimes the food is very out of date and not suitable. Please check the best by dates! If you receive spoiled items, then I'm sure it was an accident. Food banks and food pantries move a lot of inventory and there are times when the food has turned. They have a lot of food that comes through and they're not perfect. Volunteers help rotate and shelf products at the food pantry. Just keep your eye out for best by dates to make sure you are getting the best quality items you can find!
Frugal Living
I live a Frugal Lifestyle. I shop sales and squirrel away supplies for winter. I am mindful to stock up on everyday items to save money in the long run so I can pay for daily living expenses like electricity. Every purchase I make is a financial investment in my future. It could be a bottle of water or a can of beans. Part of my frugal living lifestyle is using my local food pantry and shopping at thrift stores. Each organization has their own rules and if you qualify, you become a consumer to their program so please follow their rules to maintain a good relationship with your food pantry or food bank. I still have bills like everyone else and I budget according to my finances. Although I am considered financially poor or low-income, I do not feel poor. I eat well.

Thank you for watching my food pantry haul video! It really means a lot to me to see everyone watching my videos. I enjoy making these videos to help others and show what is going on in the East Coast. I hope my meals inspire you to cook at home to save money. Look out for more videos in the future! And thank you to everyone that subscribed to my channel! It means so much to me! These are uncertain times, but you can be certain to plan, prepare and get stocked on essentials.

HOW TO GET FOOD BANK HELP?
Contact your local churches or you can ask the county. There is nothing wrong for wondering how to get food bank help. Each county has a social services department that can direct you to food pantry resources in your area.
WHAT FOOD DO YOU GET FROM A FOOD BANK?
All types! I get all types of food from the food bank from unknown brands to name brands. Each shopping trip is different. I also get a lot of seasonal vegetables to cook with. Some food pantries offer staple items like beans and lentils, other food banks may even offer organic food.
HOW DOES A FOOD PANTRY WORK?
Every Food Bank and Food Pantry has their own set of rules, so make sure to call and speak with staff that can guide you to apply. Some go by how much money you make (income guidelines).
FOOD PANTRY NEAR ME TO DROP OFF FOOD?
The best way to find a location near you is to contact your local churches, google search it or contact social services.
WHAT IS IN A FOOD PANTRY BOX?
All types of food!
HOW TO QUALIFY FOR FOOD BANK?
They go by how much money you make in most cases.
FOOD PANTRY MEALS ARE SUCH A BLESSING!

My Hot Chocolate Recipe:
Add 1 teaspoon coco powder to hot boiled water, 1/4 tsp. turmeric, dash of black pepper (or cayenne), add cinnamon, few drops of Stevia (not too much or it will taste bitter), creamer of choice (I use 1/2-n-1/2 or cream), dash of nutmeg.

I'm going to try to have the next video released on Friday March 22nd at 7 pm Eastern. Please turn on your notifications so you don't miss it! See you then!!!
Can you do a video on what you buy at the grocery store to supplement what you get at the food pantry? I know you will enjoy all your healthy foods from the food pantry.
Thank you for your suggestion! I think I can do that. We can make a grocery run and maybe cook a meal!
You make some really beautiful plates with the foods you get.
Thank you very much! I enjoy plating up the food. I try to eat the fridge food first and love to put a plate together!
Extra bread could be dried out and crushed for homemade bread crumbs. Then stores in a zip style bag in your freezer. It would lay flat in the freezer. Just a suggestion Sarah 🙂
Good suggestion, thank you! Freezer is limited but if I upgrade to a chest freezer or a larger fridge, I would love to do more freezer preparations. My kitchen works pretty good for me, but sometimes I do miss cooking on a traditional stove and having more fridge and freezer space!
I love that you got two packs of lamb becaue Those type of lamb chops are my absolute favorite.
I couldn't believe they had it. I have no idea why it landed at the food pantry but so glad to get the lamb!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel yes!!! I am so glad you were able to as well. If you aren't doing anything speical for an easter meal, lamb is such a wonderufl traditional dish.
Good idea!
Everything looked great Sarah. If I was your size, I would for sure check out your sale. You should definitely do that Have a great week.
I'm hoping the vendor I use will be a good experience. I've not tried an online consignment shop before, but it looks interesting, it's called ThredUp, maybe it will be something worthwhile!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel I have bought from threadup before. I need to do one of their closet cleanouts. I have so many clothes here and I really should dwindle down. I know others who have sold clothes on there and done pretty well. Keep us posted.
Great haul. The Saltair are expensive products. They put AHA in deodorant for hyperpigmentation to light up darkening armpit. God bless 🙏🏼❤️
Thank you! I did not know about the underarm color. I wonder if i could put the deodorant on some scars to lighten it. I’ll tell ya, deodorant has really changed!
Try that yogurt dip on your lamb chops, or some chicken breast. so so good.
That sounds look a good flavor combination!
Your salad looks wonderful. Blessings 😊
Thank you! I enjoy the veggies and salads!
That fencing you got is great to make a garden or flowerbed outside. you could make an area all around your trailer by the shirting with small shrubs, flowers ferns, and things and then you won't have to worry about the weekwacker hitting the skirting. I need to do that here at my house since the vinyl siding is always getting hit as it comes to the ground.
That's a good suggestion, thank you! I do think Ferns would grow well because the ground is so moist. If I can find some locally, I'll dig 'em up! It would be nice to finish the skirting project, but that will come in it's own good time, gotta get the ground as dry as possible to move forward.
@@CareFreeLivingChannel Yes. Dig them up would be perfect. And for sure the skirting will come in it's own time. you got this.
That Lavender vanilla coffee sounds awesome.
It's pretty good, it has a different flavor, but I like it!
Sweet friend enjoyed once again hearing your lovely voice and seeing your pantry haul. Like all your meals.nice find at the dump. Thank you so much for sharing.Prayers Blessing to you always.🙏
I'm happy you enjoyed tonight's video! I hope I can put the dumpster find to good use. I love free items! The meals were fun to put together. God Bless You!
It was a great day at the food pantry! 😀 That little fencing will look so cute outside your trailer in several circular rows around flowers. Have your ever thought about getting a living turtle? They're fairly cheap and easy to take care of.
Thank you, yes it was a great day at the food pantry! I want to pretty-up the outside of the trailer. I think you're right, the fencing will help! I had a real life turtle when I was little. They are fascinating creatures. Mr. Turtle might get jealous of a living turtle!
I know you have a mini fridge, but if you could feed the bread in there, it keeps much longer and it wouldn’t go to waste
Good idea! I would love a smaller loaf of bread like 1/4 loaf!
Great, as always!
Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I had fun with the meals.
I loved the camera work of diving into the grocery bag 😃
Thank you! My man filmed that part!
Well you tell him I got chuckle out of that!
Sure will!
Make your own croutons with your leftover bread. They are so good, my family sometimes uses them for snacking.
Good idea! Thanks so much for watching!
Turn on ice box also a refrigerator learning how to organize your your your show is the help
Thank you for watching my video! I am glad it helps!
thanks nice when you put up a video
Thank you so much for watching tonight!
Those salads looked delicious!
Thank you! The salads were fantastic, very fresh!
This was a fun food pantry video to watch. Thank you for posting it. Enjoy your evening! 🌞 😊
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it! Have a great night, too.
Hi, I put baking soda in an empty shaker and use that for deodorant. We seldom eat red meat and never eat salad. Cabbage is cheaper, and it is more versatile.
A friend gives me stacks of old magazines, I read them, then donate them to the library. Enjoy your treats. Tina, Al's wife
Hi Tina! i make deodorant with baking soda and love it. I like cabbage, too. I used to make sauerkraut for the probiotics and need to do that again!
Hey there
Thanks for watching!
Good find at the dump! I can’t wait to see the pretty flower beds you create with the fencing. Sometime my Mama will ask me to ride with her when she needs to haul off her garbage. The dump near her strictly prohibits taking items. It’s a shame too because so many things still have good use or could be recycled. I never thought to add collagen powder to oatmeal. I usually just add it to my coffee. Thanks for the idea!
I hope I can pull together the flower beds this year! The free fencing should be a big help. I hope the dump updates their rules because lots of things still have plenty of life left in them! Collagen is good in oatmeal, or beverages. Have a great day!
When I saw the fence, I said out loud "if you don't pick it up, I will"!
Haha! That fencing was a real surprise to find at the dump. I had good timing that day! I'm looking forward to unrolling it and making my yard pretty.
Great food bank
Thank you so much!
Loved all the meal ideas ! Curious how the new coffee will taste ! ~ Tink
Hi Tink! The coffee was good! I never seen lavender in coffee, that was new to me. The meals were yummy, so glad to get all that I got. Have a great night, Tink!
Thanks for another great video. Your food videos have inspired me to do better rather than slopping it together on a paper plate. I’ve been using a blue plate I got from the Dollar Tree that reminds me of my grandmother’s blue willow plate. I can’t wait to try slicing my toast into the finger shapes. It makes it look like you have more. When I saw that flower fence, I was hoping you would pick it up. It will be perfect when you have a flower or vegetable garden.
Thank you very much! I'm so happy to hear that my videos are giving you an extra boost of inspiration, that's great! I think about how things might have been in the days of my great grandparents and how most people had very little. But they made the most out of all they had. It helps motivate me to do the best I can with what I got! I'm glad I got the flower fence, too and hope to put it to good use as the garden develops. We shall see how that goes this year! Have a wonderful night.
At our dump we have a small building with things you can pick up and take home. We live in the town of Thompson, and we call it the Thompson mall.
The dump is a great place to shop! I hope to find lawn chairs this year, we shall see!
Wow! Lots of gourmet foods this week. The cheese, fruit and nut boxes are my favorite too. Lamb chops would be a delicious lunch for a holiday. I've never cooked them before so I would have to watch a video about how to season them. Great finds this week.
Lamb is delicious! It has a buttery texture. You can cut it with a spoon! I love the fruit and cheese tray, too.
Going with you to the food pantry and dump is fun. I'm glad you picked up the fencing. If it needs to be spruced up spray bright white Rust-Oleum. Whatever you do it will be nice.
Great idea on the spray paint! That would fancy it up real nice. I'm happy someone set the fencing to the side. I love getting free stuff from the dump. One of my favorite dump finds is my coat rack. That has come in handy!
Another great video Sarah, will look forward to the next one! See ya Friday God bless!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. I had fun making it. God Bless You, too!
Look forward to your videos. You do a great job, making food look great, love the upbeat attitude.😊
Thank you so much! I am happy you enjoy my videos! I love putting plates of food together. I like to make my food pretty!
I want to know how the lavender coffee tastes. ❤ Yes, I use my cell phone to read labels all the time! 😊
I'm gonna have to include the Lavender Coffee in a video! Using a cell phone to read labels really helps. It's like companies make things hard to read, it seems!
Oh, I bet that coffee will taste great! I love lavender tea, I make my own. Saltair looks to be expensive!
Lavender is a yummy flavor! The deodorant looks "high end" to me. I have to research the ingredients more. I'm still using my homemade deodorant and it works! I love to try new products.
Enjoy your video. 💚🍀🌄🍀💚 (Pepper , Pepper😊)
I love the Pepper Song, too! It makes meal time more fun for me! Thank you for watching tonight.
Your welcome💚🍀💚!!
Thank you for another great video! I really enjoy your hauls!! Have a wonderful night!!♥️
Thank you for watching! I'm happy you enjoyed the food pantry haul. I really like shopping there and trying new-to-me foods and products! I hope you have a great night, too!
place fencing around the outside to make flower garden around your deck or home
I love that suggestion, Lois!
Wow! You had awesome finds at the food pantry this week! Those lamb chops! Yum yum!
Yes, there were great items to choose from. I'm so happy to get the lamb chops! Those will cook up nice!
Yes! Enjoy them! I barely buy them because of the price! But on special ocassion like you said is worth it! Maybe you can cook them on a date with your man! That would be a treat!
That's a great idea, thank you! Lamb is special, it's a big treat. I love how buttery smooth it is when cooked.
How many cups is a special treat for me I usually just get it in the spring of the year
@juanitataylor6947 Yes lamb is so good!
hi, sarah - it's almost dinner time here and i will tell you i would eat almost everything (no gluten) - really outstanding. sorry the tart smelled off but you are so wise to pass on it. i hope you are having a good week. i did my taxes today - the refund will help pay some bills. always good, right? take care, be well and safe.
Hi Karen! Good job on getting your taxes done before April, yay! A refund always helps. I'm glad you like the meals. I got to enjoy how cute the tart was, and maybe that was God's way of saving me from extra calories! I hope you have a great rest of your week, Karen, and all is well!
Hi Sarah, all your meals looked great. What a great find at the dump. Have fun with that. Hope you're week is great🎉
Thank you very much! I enjoyed putting the meals together. The dumpster find was great! Last year, I thinned out some of the weeds and will try to make garden beds this year and use the fencing from the dump. Have a wonderful week, too!
Hi Sarah! 👋🏻 Great pantry haul and all your meals looked good! Thanks for spending time with us. Have a wonderful week.
Hi Judy! I'm glad you enjoyed the haul and meals this week. I hope you have a great week, too, Judy!
I fees bread to the squirrels, chipmunks, and birds. But I also feed them seed mix, black sunflower seeds, and suet. I don't think bread will hurt the wildlife. I think Humans encroaching on their usable land and proving nothing is hurting them. We have an obligation to the wildlife to help them. Organic bread will not hurt them. The crows and ravens enjoy our bread the most. We buy organic and only feed it if it gets stale though
I think it's wonderful to help the wildlife thrive! I have a couple of bird feeders with seed in it. Although I think the squirrels are ruling the bird feeders. I did see a bird fly behind a gap in my trailer skirting today. I wonder if they have built a nest in there! I love the sound of birds in the Spring. Thank you for watching tonight!
That charcuterie board with nuts sells for $14.00 or more where I work!
Wow I had no idea! That's expensive. The cost of everything has gone up these days.
Wow,that fig/almond bar looked awesome! I noticed in your last video that you were wearing one of your new blouses...it was beautiful! Have an awesome week.
I'll have to show the thrift store outfit! I love the top, it fit and that's always a win! The fig almond bar was very "almondy" and yummy. If I have the chance to get it again, I think I'll add it to my oatmeal to soften it up. Have a great night and thanks for watching!
Hi Sarah ! What a beautiful video, thanks for sharing ! I would love to see a video about your online sales , what a great frugal idea ! Hope you have a peaceful week 🙏💕🙂
Thank you! I have not used an online consignment shop before, but it looks interesting to pursue. It might be a neat adventure to embark on! Have a wonderful week and thanks for watching!
A consignment sale would be fantastic. I'd definitely participate.
Thank you for letting me know. I have some clothing that no longer fits correctly so I want to try the online consignment shop, I'm still figuring out how it works. But it looks like they send me a bag to fill up and they sell it on their website. Then share a portion of the profit!
Thank you for the great video 😊. Is that your manfriend holding the camera while you shop?
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, my man helps me film!
SaltAire deoderant is a whole body deodrengt good for sensitive skin, keep you smelling nice, Great if you are a heavy sweeter
Thank you, Lois! The product line sure did look fancy! Come to think of it, I seen a commercial the other day for whole body deodorant, just a different brand. I'd never heard of such a product, but truth be told, I don't shop in-person at the big stores much anymore like Walmart or Target. Maybe we'll need to take a road trip and go into the city!
I hope you can find something to do with the fencing you found at the dump. My grandma always put them around her flowers. Hope you have a great week 🩷
I think that is a great idea to use the fencing around flowers! I do have 3 irises in the ground so far. It's a humble beginning but it's a start! Have a wonderful week!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel that's a good idea so when they cut the grass they won't cut them down
Right! That's a good point.
You can cut leftover bread into cubes or strips, mix with a little oil (broth is optional) and spices (salt included), put it in an oven and make your own croutons. If you need bread crumbs, a blended or even mortar can turn it into crumbs in no time.
I don't know about bread and birds. Growing up, we would go to feed geese and swans during the winter. Seagulls love bread and would fight for it. In my humble opinion, it depends on birds and the bread. Lots of it these days is dangerous for anyone based on ingredients.
That's a good point about the ingredients of bread. When I eat bread that has an extended shelf life, I feel bloated. But if I eat breads that are more traditional, I don't get the bloat. I grew up feeding geese, too! Thank you for your suggestion on making croutons.
@@CareFreeLivingChannel I get sick just waking into the bread aisle. The smell there triggers my migraine. Eating it is a different story, so let's just say that I either bake my own, or buy something that doesn't look like a Medieval poison. Lots of kids now have problems with gluten. I believe that comes from the treated wheat and from everything else that is in bread. Wheat is expensive to grow, so it's easier to make the population refuse to eat it. Up until the last century, the poor lived and died and never even tried white bread. It was the rich people's food. I have feelings that we are turning the time back.
I saw a documentary years ago about modern day wheat and how it has been altered for mass production. I've noticed that a lot of people have migraines now, and I do believe there may be a connection to the wheat. When I was growing up, I don't recall migraines being "normal". I tend to avoid the shelf-stable bread at the grocery store, the kind that lasts for weeks. It has a strange texture to me. It reminds me of fast food that does not decay and break down!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel lots of pesticides are used on wheat, but they also add a lot of chemicals to shelf stable bread. After reading what each ingredient actually is, I avoid them at any cost. According to my tests, I'm allergic to dairy and gluten. The reality is it's not the cause. It's everything else that is in dairy and wheat products.
That's a good point on ingredients! I tried to clean out my perishable items and keep what seems like better quality products. When I eat MSG, my joints hurt. There are so many names for MSG, sometimes it feels overwhelming to reduce it. And that may be the best I can do is reduce it instead of eliminate it. I see how I feel and if a specific products makes me feel bad, I try to avoid it in the future.
Oh wow, lamb chops. I have never heard of lavender vanilla coffee.
The coffee flavor was new to me also! Lamb is wonderful, excited to cook it up!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel I would love to try lamb. And I wish one of these times I would get it as a food pantry donation. At least I could hope.
I hope you get to try the lamb, too!
Wow, the lamb chops sure were a great score. They would be awesome to cook for Easter dinner. Hope you have a blessed week. 😊
That's a great idea! Thank you for your suggestion. I love lamb, it is an absolute favorite. Have a wonderful week, too!
The lamb rib chops are very expensive in the super markets here in New York. Great pantry haul!👍
I hear living in NY is incredibly expensive! I'm very happy to get the lamb chops, they are little but pack a mighty flavor!
I wish you could get you a bigger refrigerator
I most likely will upgrade to a larger fridge one day!
I always love that you can find those large birthday cakes there. Some so many kids have parents who can't afford birthday cakes like that and it's great that those parents will be able to give that to their kiddos.
The food pantry helps make birthdays special!
If they ever have rugelach again, you should try it. Chocolate chip rugelach is my favorite.
I've tried it and I like it! Rugelach is yummy! Although I've not tried chocolate chip Rugelach before, maybe they'll offer it one day.
@@CareFreeLivingChannel
That’s what I thought I saw in your video, chocolate chip rugelach
You are right! They did offer it! They'll have it again one day for me to try.
So happy you were able to get the video up and running God bless
I'm happy, too! Thank you for watching. God Bless You!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel we all enjoy your videos. Thank you for being so consistent and sharing parts of your life with us.
Awwww thank you so much!
Sara do you have to buy that food or is free ? It a nice food pantry its a blessing times are hard too tyfs hugs I just love your little home you have it decorated so nice hugs 🥰
Thank you! I love my little home, too! The food pantry items are free. There's no fee or suggested donation to shop. Customers have to apply to use the service, and they go by income. It's a great food pantry. I'm very lucky to be able to shop there. They coordinate with the "high end" grocery stores and that's how customers like me get the fancy items, it's a real blessing!
Good evening! As always leaving my comment to support the channel. That orange cake still makes my eyes burn. Whatever coloring they used on it is toxic even to look at, but I noticed a great assortment of cheeses. Hope you got some. Still watching.
Thank you! It is very orange! I did get a cheese tray and that was delicious. I hope you enjoy the rest of the video!
@@CareFreeLivingChannelno loose cheese?
Only the cheese tray! I'll look for the loose cheese next time to give it a try.
How about a little compost bin?
With the wire...
Oh that's a great idea! Thank you for your suggestion!
I can find those super little mini fridges that are all the rage on social media. They hold like 6 drinks. I see them at the thrift stores a lot we got my mother-in-law one for Christmas for like $8 brand new at goodwill so keep an eye out that would be perfect and super tiny if you ever want a supplement fridge.
Wow $8 was a great price! Your mother-in-law must have loved it! I think some folks put make-up in the little mini-fridges, but I would definitely use it for supplements.
@@CareFreeLivingChannel Hers has a mirror on it so yes she uses it for that in her bedroom but she also keeps some chocoates in there too.
Great food pantry finds Sarah! Spring has arrived, or so they say. Woke up to a dusting of snow this morning. Lol! Have a good day!
Hi Chris! Good morning! I hear the birds are singing. We gotten snow before in March. But I think the snow season is done this year, we shall see. I bet that dusting of snow you got was real pretty to look at. Have a wonderful day, Chris!
As I was working on my packing today I was thinking about you & then I take a break & here you are. What a blessing to see your video.
Awww, thank you very much! I hope your packing is going well and your move is seamless!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel thanks so much. It's getting there.
I'm so glad to hear it!
santal bloom 5% aha serum deodorant is formulated to combat odor, brighten the look of discoloration, and smooth and reduce the look of ingrown hairs.
To Use: Apply generously to underarms. Allow 30-60 seconds for deodorant serum to dry before applying deodorant.
Thank you very much for this info! I appreciate it.
Let us know if you liked the lavender flavor coffee. I was hoping you try it out in this video. Otherwise, great haul.
Thank you so much for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel I guess that mean you didn’t like the coffee. 😂
The coffee is good! :-)
What a wonderful haul!
Thank you! It's a blessing to get all the food. I enjoy the ready to eat items, love trying the different flavors!
My favorite item you get from the food pantry is the fancy cheese tray. 😊
Yes, the cheese tray was fantastic! I love the variety of flavors.
I love lamb chops too. Got some great items😊
Thank you very much! I love lamb, it's so soft and buttery!
Does That nice man take you everywhr=ere you need to go? Thats so sweet
Hi Lois! Yes, often times we are together! We have a good life and I'm a very lucky girl!
Thank you ❤
Thank you for watching my video tonight!
I just love your videos. I am also at the age where I need to use my phone to read labels. 😮
Thank you very much! I'm glad to hear you enjoy my videos! I appreciate "bold print" these days, it's much easier to read. If you asked me in the 90's "will a phone help you read a label" I would have thought it was a joke. It's amazing how much technology has changed every day life!
Hi Sara!
Thank you very much for the Super Thanks! We are going to have to go thrift store shopping! I wonder what we'll find. I have my eye on a few items, waiting for the 75% off sale!
I'm interested in the antiinflammatory hot chocolate. Where did you get that from? I'm always inflamed and I love hot chocolate.
I remember researching anti-inflammatory foods years ago and that lead me to making the hot chocolate. Here's my recipe, hope you enjoy!
My Hot Chocolate Recipe:
Add 1 teaspoon coco powder to hot boiled water, 1/4 tsp. turmeric, dash of black pepper (or cayenne), add cinnamon, few drops of Stevia (not too much or it will taste bitter), creamer of choice (I use 1/2-n-1/2 or cream), dash of nutmeg.
❤
Thank you for watching tonight!
Hi dear
Thank you for watching my video! Hope you enjoyed my haul!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel I did have a great week
Glad to hear it! I hope your day goes wonderful. Thank you for watching my video!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel welcome
All I got was can goods and cereal.Generic
The deodorant is from Target. I've seen it, but never bought it. I'm very particular about what I use and about ingredients.
Oh! I've not been to Target in a long time. I need to investigate the deodorant ingredients because it might not work for my sensitive skin. I am still using my homemade deodorant which is working a-okay!
@@CareFreeLivingChannellet's just say that's not my first choice of a store to shop. Not even a second, but I get their commercials and the younger generation keeps me in the know. I looked at their spring and summer clothes and still trying to get over it. It's terrifying. I don't know about the fabrics they used, but the cuts are so oversimplified I shake my head. They stripped down everything they possibly could. Could as well just wrap a piece of cloth and not bother.
I haven't been in-person shopping for clothing at a major retailer in a long time. I love thrift stores for my clothing. I tend to find better quality with used clothing and am happy with that! I don't understand the trending fashions much. I like getting the best quality I can afford. I think the modern trends are equated to "fast fashion" which from my little knowledge on it, are often times synthetic material that is not made to last. These are the times we are in! Give me a pair of boot cut jeans and a comfy top and I'm a happy camper.
@@CareFreeLivingChannel I look what they can offer, the reality is that resale shops as you said provide a better quality. There is one perk about not being 20 anymore. I don't have to follow the trend. If it doesn't look good on me, it doesn't matter how trendy it is. I usually say that my body is from the last year's collection. The idea of wearing used water bottles also puzzles me. It's not just polyester, but it's used polyester, and it's somehow portrayed as the best thing ever.
Sometimes I find brands like "LL Bean" at the thrift store that have stood the test of time! I do recall going to the mall as a teenager and seeing similar styles in the 90's. A fabric holding up for 30 years is amazing quality. And, that used to be the standard! I love well-made items. If I were to buy it brand new today, I could not afford to do so. The thrift store gives me a great opportunity to build up my wardrobe within my budget.
huh I need to look for smaller clothes probably a 14 W now some more weight loss and I'll be in normal sizes hallelujah
Congratulations on achieving your health goals! That's wonderful!
Do you enjoy cooking ?
I see you get a lot of ready to heat and eat food?
Or is it you don't have enough space in your fridge to stock up to do more home cooking?
I didn't see your comment earlier but want to respond! I do enjoy cooking but I sometimes miss having a traditional stove. So, I tend to get plenty of ready to eat foods so I can use the microwave or air fryer to make life a little easier! I did recently visit Habitat for Humanity and found a stove but it had sold. I would like to cook more.
@@CareFreeLivingChannel have you thought about a hot plate?
I bought a double burner one for 20 bucks at my rose's store.
Our old stove became a fire hazard a flat top glass stove top and oven
The oven started coming on all by itself on like hotter than broiler
I thought the last time I was going have to call the fire department and couldn't use the stove top because it would trigger the oven to come on
I finally found a friend who knew where an older 70s model style was for 100$ a double oven one on top of the stove one bigger one below it the stove but for bout 4 months I had to use the hit plate my countertop convection oven my air fryer instant pot and crockpot and electric skillet and griddle.
I have a lot of kitchen gadgets that I buy reconditioned refurbished or remanufactured for a lesser cost but still have a warranty
