$65 Two Week Grocery haul for a Large Family | The BEST deals I've ever found!

Sticking well to my $200 a month budget so far in 2017! Smith's had all the deals for me today so I stocked up on fish and yogurt. We are done shopping for March, so the next haul video will be our April once a month shopping.

Aww, tiny Haley! I look forward to these moments with my daughter - currently 6 yrs old

[@Stepheroussnape]

It's so bittersweet seeing Haley so young knowing that shes 18 now 😭😭 I can't wait to have these moments with my kids! You're such a good mom

[@kirasgirly]

HAHAH binging your videos yet again and sho shocked at how little everyone was. This deal on the Mission tortillas! I just grabbed a few bags yesterday (30 April 2021) at my Kroger and now wishing I had grabbed a few more...I mean tortillas and salsa are a fave in our house lol It's the same deal for us right now :D

[@mee.s.]

Where do you live to get 12 eggs for 77c and 2lbs of strawberries for 2$? The eggs are at least 2-3$ and the 2lbs of strawberries are pretty much only sold at Costco for 8-9$, the other stores have only 1lb for 4-5$. What you bought for 65$ would actually cost around 150$ at my place...easily.

[@FrugalFitMom]

I shopped a lot of sales!

[@lilydinh6059]

Shop around for sales thats what i do now, I spend too much money at Costco thinking it's cheaper to buy in bulk... Big mistake, the food rotted and I had to throw a lot away.

Aldi eggs are always less than a dollar

[@Tanjiro88570]

Aldis!!

Sounds like you definitely live in canada. I always say this watching Americans do grocery hauls.

[@tenishameredith7753]

subbing, that's it! you're gonna show me the way, lady! we have a family of 4, and i just realized that i spend too much on groceries 😢

[@hilltopflowers9934]

This is the first vid I have seen of your channel. Gonna sub because your the first channel I've watched in three years that put everything on screen you said you were going to. Means your a woman of your word. Don't know what your channel is even about, just know I will most likely learn something. TFS Velvet

[@camzp04]

Hailey is a baby here! 😍

[@MyQuaintCottage]

I'm loving your freebies. We donate unwanted food too. Lol. Great grocery haul.

[@sheashea4622]

That was a great deal on the tilapia!!

[@dancerride]

your a great mom .. its getting harder and harder to feed a family healthy.. we here in california forage super foods as dandelions stinging nettles and so much more for real vitamins!! and basically free food!! we skillet bake our own bread right in a skillet fresh takes 4 minutes!! keep up the good work and try to make your own fresh yogaurt!!! worth the few minutes and very easy and very cheap!!

[@Knicole927]

Look at how little Hailey is!!! Omg!

[@momfam1713]

Ooooh great deal on the tilapia!!

[@strawberrygurle]

I’m in Canada so prices are different in currency and transport, but those prices are awesome. I get excited over coupons as well

[@staceysmith899]

Love your videos!

[@amandabrown4575]

Ohhh my goodness look at Haley so little!!! Shout out we miss you Haley!!!❤

[@kathleenross7648]

If you don't have Aldi you would love it. cucumbers are 45 cents. I know you got them for 50 cents, but Aldi has some super cheap foods.

[@cocinandorico]

wow really awesome deal. please make more of your recipes i love cooking videos

[@bobbytrent617]

Love your videos

[@brendakibler8334]

great deals!

[@twowitcheskitchenincredibl1652]

WoW!! Look at you girl! How much weight have you lost! I love watching ur youtube channel!

[@KingCellis313]

where do you live? I would learn to learn to coupon

[@jennifersiders3442]

I can't get over how young Haley is. you both are adorable in this video. it baffles me that I've been watching you for nearly 3 years.. wow time goes by so quickly. thanks for all your videos they inspire a lot of positive information and the world needs saving :) bless you and yours.

[@FrugalFitMom]

I do the same thing! I look at some older videos and I'm like - what happened?!

[@bravehearticus]

0.24 for Fage is awesome! I just bought a pot for £2.00 and that was the offer price

[@kristelledueck2593]

Loved the intro!

[@livinwiththeedges8283]

My Kroger had the wholly gaucomole regular size for .59 a piece on manager special. Got 14 because they fridge amazingly!

[@FrugalFitMom]

I probably would have bought them all if they had been that cheap! Nice find!!

[@smrtyrn801]

Smith's was amazing this month! I got some clearance chocolate milk too, but mine was whole milk and it was 99 cents. I looked for packaged fish deals, but my smith's didn't have any, I did get some good deals on individual fresh packaged ones though and we're having fish tacos this week so it came at a perfect time! I was excited about the strawberry deal too, but sad about the asparagus because I bought some last week when it was 1.98/lb, which was still good for winter, but not as good as this! I'm following a meal plan from cleansimpleeats so I'm trying to buy only the ingredients I need for the week and then any deals I see on the side to create a stock pile. That is such a score on those protein drinks! Another great video! LOVE them! I watch you and my other youtube channels over tv ;)

[@jeansintheyard]

AhhhhhMazing deals!!!

[@EverGreenHome]

Do you use Kroger cash back? You should totally start if you haven’t! I just started in the last couple months and was able to use over $25 towards my purchase at checkout

[@SimpleWifeSimpleLife]

Smith's is apparently our version of Kroger because we get the free friday downloads every week as well! haha What a steal on that fish! Lucky!

[@FrugalFitMom]

Yes, Smith's/Kroger/Dillons/King Soopers, all the same store. I have no idea why they have different names, though.

[@peachy_reina]

I don't have any of these near me 😓

[@up-uw4op]

Kroger now owns pick n save and copps

[@ricardopez839]

Couple of days ago I bumped Into this “haul” videos posted moustly by people from the U.S the amount of processed food, plastic waste this videos shows it’s simply disgusting your video whatsoever brought some light into my eyes. You show a very balanced nutrition options that you offer to your family without expending ridiculous amount of money Greetings from Mexico

[@angelikalaser7778]

90% is also packaged. All the veggies were in plastic. But it is not her fault if the stuff is sold like that

[@ricardopez839]

Angelika Lirgendwas you are missing the point here I suggest to read my comment again.

[@angelikalaser7778]

@@ricardopez839 you said the amount of plastic is disgusting

[@ricardopez839]

Angelika Lirgendwas in other videos. NOT this one!

[@shailaz24]

What do u think abt organic? Do we really need to buy organic strawberries and everything? I can’t seem to afford

[@psymompa]

We see berries as something special and only buy organic because they hold onto pesticides (I'm a cancer survivor-trying to eat cleaner). We wait for them to be in season and stock up. Last week at Sprouts, the organic strawberries were 3 for $5. Crazy deal. When not on sale, we stick to the less expensive fruits and veggies.

[@dancerride]

home cooking is healthier and less trash of plastics and paper cartons for land field

[@billieshomelife8313]

Great job! I know this is random but could you please do a recipe video for your banana bread? You talked about making amazing banana bread in a previous video.

[@FrugalFitMom]

I do need to do that! The problem is that my family has been eating bananas so fast that none have gotten dark enough to bake into bread. I'll be on the lookout for a clearance box soon!

[@yvonnewallace7567]

Her comment about iceberg lettuce...I agree it’s not my favorite either, but I’m choosing it over Romaine because of the lower risk of contamination that has been seen in the produce lately. About purchasing discounted meat that’s close to expiration...my husband got sick from beef that was still within a few days of the sell by date. He said I was never to buy anything like that ever again.

[@smallstar11]

here from 2020 (almost 2021) and hayley(sp?) looks SOOO young in this video

[@fixyourposture282]

Will you cook all of that and prep it? My produce only last like 2 days I cant buy too much at once but then again theres only 3 of us. And folks talpia is no more gross than our chicken and beef factorys. Have you seen where any of our food actually comes from? Pick your battles lol

[@stormmiestone5363]

Rinse all fresh fruits and vegetables in a vinegar and water solution (1/2 gallon of water, 1/4 of vinegar) remove to a towel to dry. Removes wax, pesticides, insects, mold etc

[@fixyourposture282]

@@stormmiestone5363 ooh yes i def do this 🙃

[@shawnandlisamason9533]

okay I've got a question on the Whey milk are they good I ask because my daughter does not like the powdered stuff she's in college so I want her to have protein as much as possible she lives in the dorms and she comes home we would like every other week but sometimes that does not happen. if you haven't tried them can you let me know if you like them or not please From Lisa

[@FrugalFitMom]

I've been super happy with the My Protein chocolate whey powder. You can only get it online but it's SO yummy. I've had a lot of brands that are blah. Cellucor is pretty good too. EAS is totally not my favorite but it's cheap. Have her try out the my protein.

[@shawnandlisamason9533]

I sure will Thank you for helping me out. (Lisa)

[@green_willowtree]

Celery in your chili? I’m interested in that recipe

[@FrugalFitMom]

I do have the recipe on my channel under my cooking playlist. :)

[@cmccarrick10]

Where i live in NJ, the best I can do is $1.99 per dozen eggs and $1.99 per pound for strawberries when they're on sale. You're definitely responsible with your spending but the prices are impossible for me to find.

[@psymompa]

The best I can do is $2.99 for pasture raised eggs if I get them on sale at Sprouts. If I want super fresh, I can pick up from a local farmer for $4 a dozen. Fresh eggs are the best. Most eggs at the grocery store are at least one month old. I'm willing to pay more for eggs (eat less) because we don't eat meat.

[@Queenmikeia30]

can you freeze fresh asparagus

[@FrugalFitMom]

Maybe if you blanch it first? I've never tried it.

[@dostagirl9551]

Perhaps blanched. I know I’ve had them in some of the frozen Lean Cuisines I’ve purchased. That’s sort of my to-go way of seeing if an item will freeze: if they are in frozen entrees.

[@heyokaempath5802]

Is Smith's the same as Kroger?

[@FrugalFitMom]

Yes it is.

[@beningolili]

Is Smith's only in your state?

[@FrugalFitMom]

No, it's a Kroger affiliate store that goes by many different names across the country.

Where are the vegetables and milk and butter and cheese, and tea, coffee, sugar, flour, never mind cleaning materials and oooops toilet rolls.

[@MamaStyles]

Tilapia and basa are fish garbage cans full of mercury and parasites....it’s great to be thrifty but I raise 3 daughters alone as a single mom and my groceries are 800 a month and my kids health supersedes being cheap.This can’t be quality food on so little $$...

[@meandme8049]

Telapia from China is fed with chicken poop. Thats why it smells strong.

[@janemills1839]

Too embarrassing in the car, switched off ----- living off bread, Oreos, lemonade, eggs, asparagus, cucumbers, one lettuce, strawberries, tortilla chips, what is talopia?.......... oh fish loads of it. Mayo spread, cream cheese, yoghurts, drinks for 1.79" how do you feed a family on that
