[@nannettelacy6188]

You really don't need to provide an explanation. We all do what's best for our families. Thanks for taking the time to share with us.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Thanks for your kindness

[@MamaHugPostpartumCareKits]

Nannette Lacy I just said exactly the same - can't believe people would comment and criticize!

[@tracykearney774]

I agree. We buy what we can afford and try to be as healthy as we can. No explanation needed. Delete all negative comments from your page.

[@jessicabeebe908]

I agree! You are doing a wonderful job! I love getting ideas for meals from this channel! The children are happy and healthy and mom is making magic happen in the kitchen....good job mom!

[@latoyalove23]

Right im glad you are helping :) thank you and the lady that tried to make you look bad for helping other should have just stayed to her self

[@nancyeweiker]

Thanks for sharing. Don't ever feel the need to explain why you buy anything to anyone. You're not feeding the internet so they don't need to worry about why you do or don't buy anything (aside of asking how something tasted).

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

You're so right, Nancy! I typically don't let it phase me, and I should continue that mindset.

[@nancygilbert2268]

I love that Aldi has organic fruits and vegetables too! Don't apologize for doing your best to feed your family. God sees your heart and He will bless you in saving money.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Thanks, Nancy!

[@genamueller8058]

My produce never lasts more than 2 days when I buy at ALDI. Not sure if it’s because the fruits and veggies aren’t refrigerated but it’s the one thing I will not buy at ALDI.

[@heybb1751]

I love ALDI, it's a serious money saver.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

We would be spending SO much more if we didn't have the convenience of Aldi, for sure!

[@nadeawilliams7749]

I like Aldi also!! I save at least 75% !

[@nickerfrotts2000]

Finally, a “real” family grocery haul!

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Bwahaha, thanks!

[@nadeawilliams7749]

When people comment about your grocery hauls, tell them simply this is how you shop for your family. Period. You do a damn good job by the way!

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Thank you! So many opinions on the internet these days haha

[@tikacalifornia7876]

When it comes to your nay-sayers, dear, it's mind over matter. Those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter. Stay true to what you believe, and trust deeply that your love for your family shines through these you-tube videos. A thousand blessings to you and yours.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Thank you! 😊

[@FourSeasons04]

Beautiful comment!👍 Sadly, people rather be mean than kind, yet meaness utilizes far more energy. Interesting🤔.

[@MsPxeDst]

Your video is super clean and informative, I like how you mention the meal plans for the week and have the prices off to the side 👍🏽

[@whyjustwhy2168]

That's really cool you did all the prices as you showed everything

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Thanks! My husband does that for me after I record the haul haha

[@maryjoannakosier9694]

[@Starbuck7280]

I love how you did the running total!

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Thank you! 😀

[@pooker916]

When cooking brown rice try cooking it with chicken broth and a little olive oil. It makes it flavorful and fluffy.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Thanks for the tip!

So far Ive watched two of your grocery video hauls which I love your grocery hauls bc you price everything on your videos

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

I'm glad you like them!

[@twopeasonaspoon]

That Aldi jasmine rice is the absolute BEST!

[@vickyk9694]

I just subscribed. I absolutely love shopping at aldi. I love all the seasonal things they sell and their low prices always suprise me. We used to spend so much more at Walmart even after using coupons. Now when I walk into walmart for something other then food I just think, I can get it cheaper at Aldi...lol

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

I feel the same way whenever I walk into any other store lol

[@AC-qo8oq]

Vicky K so true! God bless Aldi. We always spent $120-$150 at Central Market abs that was with lots of planning. Now, I fill up my cart at Aldi and feed us two for $65/ week.

[@hellokitty-iq4oz]

Wow you're doing a great job. I used to spend for a family of four and I would spend 100$ easy on a trip. Great video. Thanks for reminding me about Jasmine rice and I'm looking out for that Greek toasted coconut yogurt.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

The yogurt is so good - hope you can find it!

[@CaptinHoot51]

[@rayshelld791]

Have you tried Basmati brown rice? I know they sell the white at aldi's, but not sure about the brown.

[@dazedcornfusedinthemidwest1114]

You eat pretty good for $60 a week! Gives me some ideas .

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Love being able to share ideas and get feedback, so thanks for watching!

[@autohelix]

Realistically that's not going to last a week if you have just 2 people 3 meals a day 7 days in a week that equals= 42 meals.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

And yet somehow it DOES last - combined with food we have on hand. With a proper meal plan, it's amazing what you can make work!

[@dawnkeatley884]

You can spread out your meal with the chili by making spaghetti with it with a little cheese on top

[@beccaa.rodriguezz]

You could try brown jasmine but... I feel ya. I love white jasmine rice!! Seriously it’s rice it’s still pretty healthy even though it’s white.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Yeah just haven't found a brown variety that I like as much! haha

[@Angel-td9yk]

Wow okay so my local walmart prices are like 3× that amount!!!

[@Jazzy201993]

I love your grocery hauls please keep it up , it’s helping me shop a lot..

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

I'm glad they're helpful! :)

[@npike101604]

I've been wanting to check out my Aldi because I've never shopped at one so I appreciate all the prices!

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

I heard they can be hit or miss on quality, but we luck out and have 2 in my area that are both decent! I hope you find some good steals!

[@crystalb.-atexaninaz4482]

My lunches growing up were a sandwich, 3 or 4 cookies and a handful of chips (most days). Some days my mom was sneaky and stuck fruit in, but she picked her battles. Giving me a fun lunch at school was something she never felt the need to apologize for. She cooked us breakfast before we left for school, and she made homemade (and amazing) dinners 95% of the time at night. Your kids are lucky that you give them the balance between fun and healthy so that they know that everything is ok in moderation.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

I'm so fortunate that the kids love fruits and veggies and for the most part I don't have much issue getting them to choose some throughout the day! I hope I raise them to be open minded to different foods and their palates adapt! I'm not very picky at all haha

[@ashleyguinn9236]

I wish I had a aldi near me.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

They sure are nice!

[@alishaday414]

I give props to you for eating left overs so much! I can’t do it, after eating it for dinner and maybe lunch the next day I couldn’t do it again. We also buy a ton of fruit and snacks for my daughter but we spend about $100-$150 a week but that includes snacks, breakfast for myself and my daughter lunch for us and dinner for my husband and I ( my daughter is picky) we shop at aldi, ingles and sams club for fruit

[@dianemarks2270]

I freeze it and skip 2 days or remake it into something else

[@alishaday414]

I couldn’t eat it in the same week lol, but I send all the left overs with my husband for lunch, we only make enough for us and his lunch. I never ate left overs growing up so I honestly really don’t like them. I mean unless it’s pizza from our local pizzeria but who doesn’t like pizza left over! Lol

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

After the 2nd day I usually get tired of it, but I also hate waste lol

[@judywoehl4924]

It still amazes me how much food you can get at Aldi for such a small price!! My nearest Aldi is about 75 miles away, but I should try to buy at least my canned food there. Thanks for sharing your haul, I especially like how you show the prices on the side :)

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

I wish I would've started shopping there ages ago! It's too bad yours is so far away :(

[@tmarie1280]

New subscriber and I love your channel !! You're so relatable and real . Breath of fresh air. I have 3 kids 11, 4 and 2 so I find these videos very helpful , thank you !

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

That's probably one of the nicest things you could compliment me on...being relatable is important to me :) Glad to have you here, Tara!

[@ginaforman560]

With leftover rice I mix butter, milk like a splash, and sugar and warm it up and eat it that way. That's from my childhood and so good

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

YES! I did that as a child, too. It's one of my go to comfort foods with leftover white rice.

[@BlackPearlMinistries]

Crazy how you have to explain your purchases. Great haul. I liked the Aldi brown rice, but the family of course prefers white rice. We picked up a huge back of Sushi style rice at our restaurant store. We love the sticky kind cause we are a chopstick family. I got a ton of meat on sale a few weeks back too. Love having it stocked up. My kids love the cheddar and colby jack sticks. The string cheese does tend to sit around.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Isn't it weird how kids tastes change? They used to DEVOUR string cheese. So I bought a big bag of 60ct from Costco and I swear it was like pulling teeth to get them to finish it lol.

[@crispinscrispian7726]

Try the almond milk that is not sweet the original unsweet I think is better. I like it better with cereal's.

Thank you Aneta! Glad to have you here!

[@baileysteele72]

I know this is a year ago, but you’ve got to get the vanilla soy milk for your kids to try!! Amazing with cereal for the kiddos and tastes better than regular or almond milk!!

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

We've tried soy milk and they don't like the taste! Weird, I know! 🙂

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Thanks for the sweet words, Cathy! I'm pretty sure I go over grocery budget almost every month lol ;)

[@dianemarks2270]

Pretty good. I think you might need some fresh fruits and salad and aldi is pretty on on that the spring mix is like $3 and green peper is cheap too. I love jazmin rice too. Aldi precooed brown rice is good but i make spanish rice so it adds another layer of flavor. And fried rice too. Eggs at aldi are really good deal. And caugh in the wild fish it amases me the good price on salmon and swai. And shrimp.

[@sintoantonyvellani3506]

We grow green pepper in India we cultivated around many kilograms of pepper

[@terrythomas5247]

I feed mine on 175.00 a month and we eat great. Try scratch and dent stores. Sav a lot and aldis. Walmart very little. And if you buy junk snacks 20.00 limit at aldis and dollar tree.

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

That's awesome!

[@crystaledwards6610]

Wow! What's your secret? I spend $200 every two weeks and it's only me and my son!😫

[@terrythomas5247]

Limit the snacks. Get the 5for 20 at sav a lot. Use scratch and dent stores. Only buy 1.00 snacks like cookies and chips. I get aldi snacks for .89 i buy 20.00 worth a month. Watch aldis ads for grnd beef for 1.79 lb. Only allow so much snacking. If it runs out you dont get anymore till next month. I buy 2 boxes tea bags at save alot and 4 bags sugar you get 5gals per every 4lb bag use 9single bags of tea. 5 gals for 6.00 no pop unless krogers has it for 5for 10. I buy stakes at sav a lot when they on sale.

Is the $400 budget just food groceries or does that also include household items (tp, dish soap, etc)?

[@KD-kj8rr]

I think you did wonderful! Never say sorry for doing what you can and doing what you think is best for your family! Every families needs are different! I live 45 miles from a town and only buy groceries 2x a month so we are very limited on how much fresh produce we can get that will last but also be affordable bc it's not cheap where we live! I would say 90% of our produce is frozen or canned and yes to most that's not ideal but it is from where the area I live! Loved your video and remember it's your family and know that you know your family best 💜

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Frozen can sometimes actually be BETTER than fresh from what I've learned because it's flash frozen at it's peak freshness! So I don't think you're doing anything wrong. Frozen makes sense for taste and quality (and price sometimes!) in a lot of instances.

Good luck haha

[@CovidConQuitTheCensorship]

I love brown rice and it is much healthier. White rice contains no fibre and bloats me, the same with white bread. Neither is good if you're into fitness. It's like putting sand in the base of an umbrella stand 😁 but brown rice is yummy once you get used to the flavour and learn to cook it properly. It puffs/swells up and as with wholemeal bread, has stand alone flavour (unlike white bread or rice) which only enhances when combined with the other part of the meal
