[@lih-fk8by]

Thanks for sharing, I buy rice and pinto beans from Oxxo, the rice is 900g for 16p and the beans are 900g for 30p and the beans are always the cleanest I buy from anywhere also Oxxo's points card is very generous about every third visit I am able to deduct 10-20 pesos from my total

[@dreamlifeinMexico]

Good to know the rice deal in Oxxo. We didn't know the points there, need to check it out!👍

[@yestohappiness2721]

what brand of beans? i am at my wits' end with washing the beans - the walmart ones are SOOOO dirty, and I tried also at soriana (precisimo and merced) and those were dirty too... i"ll try the oxxo ones next

@@lih-fk8by went to oxxo and got their card for puntos (you inspired me!) and also saw the beans and rice... cheapest price too for them! thank you so much!!!🤗

if you get the 210g la costena tomato sauce it's just 4-5 pesos, so for 1 liter you end up paying 20-25p, vs the bigger size you guys got that was 30p... but then if you use 1 L every time, it may be annoying to open 5 small ones... for the 2 of us we use 1-2 small 210g when we cook so it's worth to get smaller sizes which are also cheaper...

Good to know ! Thanks!

The grocery run videos are so informative! I’m jealous. In NC that would easily be close to if not more than $200. This is completely off the topic of the video but I’m hoping you guys can answer it. Do you find that the city noise interrupts your sleep? I’ve been watching so many videos and so many have complained about the noise. One person said that She was awakened at 3 AM by mariachi band. Since you all have a toddler is the noise a huge concern?

[@dreamlifeinMexico]

Thanks for watching!!! CystalDale! It really depends on where you live. we dont get 3am mariachi band as we dont live by any bars. But some neighbors make some music sometimes we called security.

Has the water restrictions in Mexico City affected you all in any way? I hear a lot of neighborhoods go without water for a few days.

[@dreamlifeinMexico]

Not to where we live

I love that you are cooking schnitzel with chopsticks

[@dreamlifeinMexico]

Yeah, right. lol. I wish i had a longer pair.

[@lgls]

Haven't you tried Sams club or Costco? I think they would save a few pesos

[@dreamlifeinMexico]

Not really, they are more expensive actually from my reserch.

Oh, that crocodile bread is so cute. Your shopping trips are always interesting and informative (even though Landy talks about liver, LOL). Tecate is $16.99 for a 12-pack in MI. What is the snack Landy bought for Louie? I'm so glad that you were able to cook and eat without an earthquake! Thanks for the enjoyable video!

[@dreamlifeinMexico]

I bought the Loly pops candy 🍭 for Louie. Yeah that bread is so cute I need to buy one 😀 Glad you like our shopping videos 😅 I enjoy making it.lol
