EP 153: Provisioning for our Atlantic Crossing
The time has come to get provisioning. Although we will be making a stop in Namibia before we do the atlantic crossing. Grocery prices are cheaper in South Africa so we opted to do it here. We will replenish our stocks once again in Namibia but the bulk stuff has been completed. It was definitely a new experience for us buying so much groceries at once. We bought most of the stuff we eat on a regular bases. Now the groceries are done we can finish up the last bit of check work on Lady Africa & off we go to NAMIBIA!
See ya next week!! Thanks for watching, don't forget to subscribe below if you haven't already & give us a big thumbs up as well as share this with all your friends & family!

For our family of 8, we spend $250-300 / wk. For 3 months (x12), that's $3k - 3,600 US. In Rand, that's 51k-61k. If you're provisioning for 3 months @ 20k rand, that's pretty good.

Hiya.. just a tip I've learnt about provisioning pasta, rice etc. Buy ziplock bags and alcohol (70%) & cotton wool. Put your dry food in bag, wet the ball with alcohol, put in bag, leave for an hour. Then remove the ball. The alcohol kills all the "live" eggs in the actual pasta/rice.

Every creator I have talked to has been unaware of it that’s how it was working now. I can put up with a reasonable amount that the creators allow.
