Thanks Christine. I'm a SAHM and my husband lost his job Friday because they said he's just "not a good fit" after working there for almost 4 years! We're both applying for jobs now and money will be tight. We have enough to make it 3 months without an income. Your budget meals are so helpful

How awful and frustrating! What they told your husband was a cowardly excuse, not a reason. I'm praying for you right now. God bless you both.❤ P.S. Please consider food pantries and applying for SNAP (food stamps); this situation is what it was designed for.🙏

I chuckled when Christine said “hyperinflation”. I lived through the mid 80s crisis in Latin America when inflation was three digits per year. Also, we did not have a food stamp or food bank system back then, can you imagine what it was like? My grandpa had a cattle ranch, that is how we survived, but plenty of people migrated to the US to be able to provide for their families. Some of them illegally. I am so sorry for American families struggling right now.

I was just at Walmart and Aldi today and while I have noticed price increases over the last few months, today it just really hit me! It seemed like everything has gone up so much. A quarter here, a dollar there and suddenly your grocery budget just isn't going as far. Crazy 😬 Definitely doing more from scratch which not only helps the budget, but also just seems healthier.

@kniddelliz7512 2 жыл бұрын

Sure 37$ is not expensive to feed a family. But considering that it was 30$ for the same products two years ago, 23% is a HUGE increase. If you only have 120$ a month for food, this means you're gonna be without food for a week. Salaries haven't gone up by 23% to counterbalance it. This means that now, food insecurity is even more rampant than at the beginning of the pandemic, yet all the covid food relief initiatives have mostly stopped at this point -- at least in my area. Thank you for your investigative work Christine, definitely eye-opening!

For sure, the giant bag of chicken leg quarters is the best way to get a lot of meat into an extremely tight grocery budget. I also like to throw a package of chorizo in just to switch up the flavor because it's only a $1. We've seen prices jump across the border significantly in my area (south FL), and lots of empty shelves here as well. Aldi was completely out of onions last week, and most stores have empty spaces here/there, of course depending on the time/day one shops.

For example, the meal is chicken and noodles and you make it for $5, $10, and $15. I think this would be a great experiment because we often see comments on budget videos about how something so minimal either isn't nutritious or tasty so, what could you add to it with a stretch budget and what could you add to it with a splurge budget?

To buy the exact same groceries 2 km from my house it's $122.72 CAD!! The chicken and eggs really got me. 10 lbs Chicken Quarters was $61 and eggs $3.47 a dozen. I did end up with a few extra onions and garlic because it was cheaper that way. I would need to visit multiple stores to even think of saving money, but then there is travel costs. For context minimum wage is currently $12.95/hr, average rental cost for a 1 bedroom apartment is $1450 and gas is $148.4/l which is 6.73 for a gallon. An interesting exercise for sure!

Hi Christine! Have you ever watched a youtuber by the name of Atomic Shrimp? He's from the UK and does extreme challenges with very limited ingredients and a small budget. He even forages for ingredients at times! It's quite interesting to watch and I thought you might enjoy seeing his extreme challenges as well😊

You know how I know Christine is a genuine person? Because when she donates food and gifts food to people she never films herself doing it. She doesn't make a whole show of look at what a great person I am and look how kind I'm being. She just dose it quietly, off screen and then get on with the real content she makes ❤️

Now I feel way less bad about my grocery situation here. I used to be able to do my weekly shopping for a family of 5 with 5 cats for around $150-175. Now I am sitting at $200-225. It hurts!
