Amen....I know that our prices have gone up. As 1 person , I do not shop at Costco, but I love the store .

[@jessicasmith6470]

We shop at Sam’s Club, much closer but prices are going up daily. Very sad what is going on in Ukraine . Biden too weak to do anything.

[@janelleuptegraw7428]

I would love to see a video where you show us the meals you make. Just like your top 10 go to meals for different times. From daily quick and easy to what you would make if you were low on things and getting into you long-term supplies. Love y'all as always great video. I hope you have a wonderful day.😊

This video reminds me of my wife and me going on "shopping dates" when our 3 boys were early teenagers. With 3 boys, we had 3 refrigerators and 3 freezers as well as a dry stock pantry that we kept stocked. We also were foster parents and we usually had a total of 4 or 5 kids but as high as 9. Now, in our 60's we look back and say it was the best of times.

[@briannac5171]

Thank you for opening your home to foster kids in the past! It can be hard, but it is so needed 💛 My husband and I go on shopping dates too, two refrigerators and three deep freezers to keep stocked!

[@rosierose290]

That is so sweet! I can’t wait to make memories like that with my boyfriend❤️

[@portiasummers775]

We use Sams club because we don’t have Costco. They do pickup orders 24ish hour notice and they will shop and have it ready for you. But, you do not have to spend a certain amount to do it.

[@sharon22669]

Everything has gotten more expensive. Our weekly grocery bill went from $125-$150 to $150-$200.. I haven't seen any shortages recently in New Jersey. Jessica and Bert thank you for brightening our day. Your family and videos are a beacon in the dark. Praying for peace.

[@pammasheppard1338]

Where I live in NJ there have been shortages. Pasta, canned goods, dairy and chicken are always in some sort of lack of products.

[@aprilnasworthy4669]

It’s been the same here in the state of Georgia. I went to the grocery store yesterday with my mom and she pretty much bought the same amount that she always does and it was at least $50 more. It’s getting ridiculous.

[@DU2273]

I’m also in New Jersey (outside Philadelphia) and have noticed stores are pretty well stocked on everything, but prices sure have gone UP!!!

[@blueangels8103]

I'm also in NJ (South Jersey about an hour away from Philly) I have notice my grocery bill going up just a little but not as bad since I shopping at Aldi instead of ShopRite (only go to ShopRite for drinks) and storages there's plenty of them..

It is funny that you mentioned and seemed surprised that Costco was stocked. In Alabama and I went to Sams Club today and I told my husband that I couldn’t believe how well stocked they were. I asked what’s wrong with me? I freaked out earlier because they weren’t stocked and today I freaked out wondering what was wrong because they were stocked. 🤪😂😂

[@deborahadcock978]

Yes Exactly me too!But I know all it takes is a few hours and it can be all gone!Thats what scares me!

[@donnaevans2005]

Love seeing Costco runs! So glad you were not limited, so that you could get what you needed, and replenish your emergency foods.

[@522Dusty]

Costco tends to be a little higher cost than Sam's Club, but comparing the prices in Fairbanks to Louisville, KY they are not much different. I have also been slowly relocating to Anchorage/Wasilla area and I believe Alaska has to be one of the most welcoming and friendliest States. There must be rude people as well but I have yet to run into one. I was told that ever since UPS located a hub in Anchorage, it has helped curb high cost because of the many flights in and out of the airport.

[@FirewindII]

Another fine 'splainer. Thank you @Jack.

[@tiffanysimerson9296]

Ontario, Canada here. We were having a lot of issues with fruits, some vegetables and mostly ground meats and chicken. Everything seems to be better now, besides the hike in prices.

[@terry1496]

I was close😊 I guessed $850! I don’t go into stores as I have a compromised immune system and with Covid I either do click list or for Costco I use Instacart. It’s so easy to shop online and let others shop for you. I have no impulse buys and I know how much I’m spending before I hit the buy button just in case I want to adjust my list.

[@nannasuep]

I love grocery shopping with you

[@Adventures_in_AK]

We have been watching your lovely family since we were stationed in Hawaii a few years ago and before we moved to Anchorage. I’m glad that you all are able to stock up a bit. We are planning on doing that this coming week as well.

[@christophervogt7456]

Enjoyed the video! Wow! Almost $900? Yikes! Looked like you got some great deals! Glad you stocked up. Uncertain times. Stay safe & well! ~ Chris from NJ

[@bethholmes555]

It was a nice break from current events to see your video. Thank you Our local stores, Safeway and Walmart, are very low on stock but some things are still available but prices have skyrocketed. I will be going to Costco in Reno, 100 miles away, tomorrow as well as a Walmart so that should be interesting. Fuel prices on Tuesday were $5.10 and today, Thursday, the price is $5.17.

[@FirewindII]

California? Thank you very much! In Boston here, I help out my mom with the groceries there. This is the kind of thing that she would stubbornly avoid complaining about.

[@harleymommy4993]

gas prices r crazy I put 62 liters o f gas in my suv today and about fell over it was $98 I have never in my life paid that for gas then went to the grocery store and spent $60 on a bag and a half of groceries I also live in Toronto and stores r well stocked right now maybe because more people can't afford it

The prices will never go up on YOUR shelves! :) Good haul! Greetings from Tennessee!

[@saraanderson6615]

It looked like you ran a red light lol. Our stores in South Texas have shortages for something’s. Also we still have limits on how much chicken you can buy. Just so long as I can get my corn beef later for St. Patrick’s Day.

Hello Somers family! Glad to see you are back.

[@marierobinson3935]

I love watching your grocery hauls, im in the UK and the nearest costco is 3hour drive ☹️ as for your milk being out of date i never take notice of that we never had dates as children,😅 so if it doesnt smell bad its fine, stay safe look forward to the next video love from UK🇬🇧🇬🇧 ❤️❤️

[@akbychoice]

I agree, many people throw out perfectly good items because of the date on the package. If it smells bad, it’s bad.

[@hannahkb1029]

I am also in the UK & think there fresh produce is very expensive. The price of cucumbers & corn on the cobs 😯

[@topherjoe1]

Yup I so agree! Extra dairy goes in the freezer, everything freezes well with the exception of cottage cheese and sour cream..cream is ok if you dont mind lumpy lol.

[@angelaparchey6302]

That was about 200.00 more than I had guessed when you cashed out. I have watched a lot of your hauls. I definately think it reflects the increase we are all dealing with in the stores.

[@beachguy2901]

i always enjoyed your vlogs and i look for them all the time specially when times are not to good i live in Mississippi and our stores are well stocked too great to know your doing well 😊

Look at the ingredients on your pam. Mine had silicone propane in it. I was able to find and olive oil spray that didn't have those 2 ingredients.

Avocado spray for high heat! Pam is horrid…

[@ellenkozy6174]

[@MsWDWFAN1]

I just went to the grocery store this week and I spent almost $130 and that was just for one person! I about fell out! 🤯 I hardly had anything in the cart! 🤯 There have been a few shortages where I live in Florida. But not too bad. For some reason cream cheese is hard to find. 🤔

[@We-Fly-Soon]

I can relate to that, I'm on a fixed income and it kills me to buy groceries anymore. I watch every penny.

[@carissadallke1345]

I'm in Kansas & go to aldi for most of my stuff, which is cheaper for me & yeah they were out of cream cheese for awhile!

[@ChasingTravelAdventure]

We have cream cheese in MS but not can biscuits 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@wanderingsoul2931]

Yup spent $130 at Trader Joe’s. My husband was in disbelief! He was like “what did you even get?!?!” Lol it’s scary times. I think we should start stocking up.

[@TRoxanne55]

My weekly grocery was $70 now it is $120. Crazy how it almost doubled! And I buy less than I did when things were cheaper!

[@alybean4211]

Wow! So crazy where do you live? I like in California. I buy dinner for two weeks and it went from about 200 to 330$ this month. Very sad.

[@suzybrat2945]

I literally choked on my water at that total. My guess was around 500. Holy moly. I live in Seattle and we can order delivery from Costco via instacart

[@Miss_Cali]

I like using instacart from Costco in a pinch previously, but I can buy a few more items with the markup if I go to the store myself which I have been doing.

[@WoodsInMontana]

I guessed $1200 and was obviously way off. I was thinking with prices being more up there and then the price hikes - nope, I got this one way wrong. LoL

[@lisalee2885]

I Love Instance cart and it helps me from NOT spending so much...if I go in the store...I SEE so much more Lol!!

[@dipschwantz1]

YAY!! LOL! I NEVER knew how much I would enjoy grocery shopping videos until I found your channel like 2 weeks ago. While I have watched several of your other videos, I totally binged your grocery shopping videos...hahaha

[@gofastER]

Always such good music on this channel.

[@kayamo1632]

Our groceries have increased by approximately 30% over the last 6-8 weeks. Shortages are hit and miss. For example this week there might not be any paper plates/paper napkins and next week there will be plenty and no soup. You can’t really plan on what might be short. Today our gas prices increased to $4.059/gallon. We are in the extreme part of NY on the Canadian border. (Most NYers think we live in Canada - lol.). By the way, we are so remote where we live, we don’t even have a Costco. When you are on a fixed income and it normally cost you $40 to fill your car and now its $65, then add 30% to your grocery bill and we fear people will start to fall through the cracks.

[@brian70Cuda]

Lets go Brandon, he did that;)

[@playinatlife5778]

I paid $4.35/gallon yesterday at Costco in So. Calif. Up from $3.03/gal Jan 20, 2021. Ave. price in Calif earlier this week was $4.72/gallon.

Jessica, I live in Cincinnati, Ohio. Ever since Covid 19 began, I have walked in a grocery store 3 times. I am 67 years old and have Heart Disease and Diabetes. I watch my 3 year old grandson who has breathing issues. I do not want to pick anything (germs) up and bring it home to him. I do all my shopping online for gifts as well as groceries. I shop at Kroger and they have shortages all the time. I never get my full list of things I order. It is ridiculous. I am, however grateful for what I receive. I just have to rearrange my meal plan. It is what it is. I just want to tell you and Bert, I enjoy your family vlogs. Your kids brighten my day when they talk to us on camera. Thanks for allowing us to see what your lives are about. Have a blessed day!
