Come along with me as I do my once-a-month grocery haul prep. This is where I go through every cabinet, every drawer, all the food in the fridge and freezer, and decide what I have or don’t have. It’s going to be a good time. Come along! Let’s do this.

Loved this mega ! You are amazing. Please stock up a little more on food for your babies. This is a crazy time. A little at a time will pay off.

Thank you for sharing! I enjoy your videos! I paused your video to clean out my fridge and clean some of the shelves. I buy extra peanut butter and canned goods such as vegetables, chicken, tuna and soup when it is on sale to have in case of an emergency.

I have been trying to "declutter" my food supplies as well to cut spending and just make sure I don't waste things. I am trying to go through everything that expires including my freezer, pantry, spices, teas & coffees, cleaning products, supplements/medicines, even my cosmetics/skincare. I looked up how long to keep opened vs unopened items that I tend to forget about or bought for a recipe/tried something new and then never used up the rest.

Hi Meghan and Markie I just listened to a mashed storage video.They saidkeep pure maple syrup in fridge so it doesn't mold.King Arthur says keep your whole wheat Bread flour in the freezer up to 3 months.Freeze your potato chips to keep them crisp they don't really freeze together, you can eat them straight out of the freezer. Put a little water on top of your guacamole in airtight bowlin fridge 3 days it will keep it's green color(gases in the air turns it brown if it sets out.) Almonds,pecans, Walnuts last 2weeks out of fridge,9 months in the fridge,and 2 years in the freezer.They said store eggs in original cartons in middle shelf of fridge up to 5 weeks and freeze for 1 year. Store natural peanut butter upside-down out of fridge and it's easier to stir.Lyatt Sandee from Ohio. 💜💜🙏🤘😊

Love the lazy Susan in the fridge. Wow I feel some similarity after watching your video. My kids definitely my daughter snack hour. She always has to have multiple. I feel like I’m getting to the point of having to write stuff down if it’s gonna get remembered. I made pretzels dipped in almond bark for my sons pirate birthday we called them skeleton bones. It took forever I was up so late. I love making holiday food when it’s not. Almost forgot love the butternut squash soup I call if bisque.

For your dish soap, you should try the scrub daddy soap dispenser. It is by far my favorite. You can squeeze the sides to squirt it into your sink like normal or you can press down on the top with your sponge or dish cloth to get just a little bit of soap if you need to just wash one dish instead of a full sink! Game changer!

You may have addressed this in previous videos, but, Dollar Tree is a great place to buy cleaning supplies! I recently brought a 50 oz. bottle of dish soap there for only $1.25 and it works great! I also buy my liquid hand soap and bar soap at Dollar Tree. Best of all, a Dollar Tree store is less than one mile away from where I live. 🙂

@Thegrocerylady Жыл бұрын

Sounds like it works well for you! 😊 I’m not overly fond of the Dollar Store in our town. Small containers, many things out of stock, or doesn’t carry the items we need. I just haven’t had much luck going there. 🙃

I buy most of my spices from Penzey's, I don't have Allspice but on their website it looks like it's the actual plant because no ingredients are listed & they always list the ingredients. If anyone is watching their blood pressure they have some great salt free options, their salt free adobo is amazing & sooo much better than over salted Goya!

In sweden allspice is only allspice berries no blends. We use allspice in a lot of things, pickled herring is a big thing here. Just made some for Easter. Happy Easter from Sweden! ⚘️

You can use glass cleaner for stove tops. It’s amazing. You don’t even need to scrub hard and it comes right off. You can use paper towels or clothes.

A great snack to try at home for the kiddos is taco pumpkin seeds. My kids and the neighborhood kids love them and so do I..lol One tbsp of oil in a frying pan, as soon as it's warm toss in your pepitas. They will puff up and get really crunchy. Add some taco seasoning for flavor. Cool and snack away.

I shop for the month. It works very well for our family. Plus I go back weekly for fresh fruit, veggies, milk, eggs, and bread. I mentioned in this video we were trying to eat up as much as we could and would be headed to the store shortly after filming - hence the extra bare shelves. I did post my grocery haul video today so you can see everything we bought. 😊
