My last Aldi dumpster haul I got organic baby carrots, tons of garlic and roma tomatoes, and a box of generic lemon lime sodas and a case of watermelon La Croix sparkling water!!!! Also got a loaf of their dupe of Dave’s Awesome seed bread, and a box of clematis flower bulbs! I’m going to plant them somewhere where they can climb!

[@freakinfrugal5268]

That sounds excellent!!!

[@mimi0424]

what an awesome haul!!

[@natalialopes719]

That's amazing! I have 30 eggs!! 10 really beautiful lemons!! Time to make lemon curd..2 loaves of their organic seed read..lots of bananas..4 impatience plants that needed a good watering..a bad of beautiful oranges..carrots..and milk. Wow!!

[@erinerickson6690]

Aldi always has good stuff in their dumpster. I love hearing what other people find. Last week I found a birch tree sapling sitting outside the dumpster! I’m planning on planting it next week. I also found some petunias, 13 pounds of frozen ground turkey!! Some bagels, cauliflower, avocados, cake, onions.

[@darlenetruong1055]

Awesome haul

[@paulineclarke5388]

Frugal Daddy has been getting some great hauls lately it’s madness how much food is discarded 😩

[@sallyhildreth3663]

I have been doing great with the flowers again! 11 hanging baskets of Impatiens! They were very dry. But they are perking up. And I got my first cheesecake sampler! Lol It's smaller than the ones you all find. But I'm still excited!

[@danitawhite3676]

I don’t think anything make me laugh more then hearing Frugal Daddy in the dumpster and pick up a food and say “ that smells good! “ with all those other smells. 😂 . What wasn’t funny was hitting your funny bone. Ouch! I pray you guys find more and more “prepper” stuff. God bless.

[@charlenebrissette3348]

I agree with you about expiration dates. The other day I was watching a KZbin video and she was cleaning her pantry and she threw away a box of pasta, I was literally yelling at the computer. Some people are so clueless.

[@hoodedneko]

Pasta..oh my 🤦‍♀️ I'd yell as well.

[@andradavis7201]

oh yes i would yell at her......like noooooooooooooooooooo....................dont throw away pasta..........really

[@colleenkarayiannis8814]

I am careful with expiry dates on dairy products when shopping, but I don't throw things away very easily. I will smell and taste test.

[@jillbuesch8063]

I would yell to about the pasta.

[@cheryllcarter3072]

The clear plastic looks great for seed starts. For the garden...just a thought

[@cyndimanka]

I thought similar to that

[@janetburke2739]

My thought as well.

[@terryhenderson424]

We often froze fruit during the heat of the harvest season then made jam et al in the cool of the fall. When freezer space has been at a premium and depending upon its final use, we've pureed the raw fruit in blender or food processor before freezing. Putting the baggies in a dish to make nice flat squares (rectangles) or circles (discs) allows for compact stacking. Or, make chubs in something like an old school margarine container then bag; I use glass Pyrex bowls then stuff chubs doen bread bags with 2 layers of waxed paper I between each chub. When you get volumes of fruits destined for smoothies, pureeing it before freezing would save freezer space.

[@C.O.G.]

I'm with you, Amy. The "food industry" is causing a lot of people to waste tons of food; with their ridiculous "best by" and "best if used by" bogus expiration dates.

[@priscillabohn4621]

to your answer about preppers. I am a person who makes 600 a month hubby makes 1,000 I have to get extra can goods and other items to be able to eat before prices go up. Do I have a lot of money, no can I afford the meat now? no I am one of the few who are just trying to get a little extra of what I can. I used to dumpster dive until all the stores went and got those locked containers that crush everything. I guess it keeps the homeless away. Our home is paid off I will get my social security in July which will double my income and I grow a garden. we are blessed and happy and don't ask for anything from anyone.

[@loreeshine1196]

that dumpster looked empty at first and WOW you really found so much

[@buckeyedav1]

If you have a dehydrator a lot of the fruits and veggies could be dehydrated and put in canning jars or recycled glass jars and stored for long term pantry bell peppers, onions, potatoes and sweet potatoes. Anna In Ohio

[@denisemayer3837]

I swear Amy you make my day you are always full of great ideas for people that don’t always have the money to go and get everything now you should do another Amy in her office special I love them great job fd as always ❤️🇨🇦😜

[@gypsy4136]

My garden is planted, I can hunt and fish, forage the forest for food. I've, over the months, stocked up on essentials. I'm not worried about food shortages. My freezers still have veggies from last year. My brother in law raises cattle so meat is good. We filled gas containers before prices skyrocketed. I've got a box of MRE's gave to us, if needed but I highly doubt it. I'm planting a lot of sunflowers today. I was raised on a farm. Awesome haul Frugal Daddy!! Stay safe and lots of love ❤️

[@marygronert6757]

Great food 👍 haul, even for the dogs and cats. Good going Frugal Daddy. ❤️

[@anitayee9084]

Happy Friday 😊 and Enjoy your Weekend and We love Frugal Daddy Dance. Cabbage Dance. L.o.l and Score 100. On Dance and we love your video and Happy Mother's Day Frugal Mom.

[@jangreen5549]

Frugal Daddy has lost weight, hasn't he? He must have cut back on the sweets. Y'all are so funny.

[@patriciarussell7487]

Amy,why does it look like you are in a comedy club,w.that brick wall? 🤣🤣🤣

[@carolczapla-edwards4588]

Looks like she was outside against her house

[@MittenPrepperVet]

At least NO RIBS broken!!!! Darn dumpsters

[@annettewalter2273]

Wow, that was A fantastic haul, well done Frugal Daddy. Love the dancing

[@karenemrick8677]

Sometimes it doesn't look like much in the dumpster then lo and behold you come out with a car load! Love it!

[@patriciarussell7487]

Well good morning! Even though it's bedtime here!

[@lisasharinglifestorieswith4182]

UTS NIGHT TIME IN NEW JERSEY ALSO THATS WHEN AMY FILMED THIS VIDEO I AM IN MI IS ALMOST 10 PM

[@lorrainemcdonald7332]

The produce you get from the dumpsters look better than the produce on our supermarket shelves.

[@freakinfrugal5268]

Especially Walmart's produce!

[@betsyspurr5512]

Frugal daddy doing it again!

[@silvagool9031]

[@ElsaInCa]

That was a lot of good food there (except for the American cheese slices; that’s just congealed Velveeta). 🤣 I have very little storage space, so can’t do much prepping, so if the Apocalypse comes, I’m screwed!

[@janetburke2739]

Elsa Cisneros: I live in a 2-bedroom condo and am also really cramped for storage. I don't even have enough room in my kitchen to store my larger soup pots and frying pans, and have to keep them on a baker's rack in my hall. Obviously there is no massive pantry with a year's supply of giant canisters of freeze-dried food, beef jerky, etc. But I do have stuff like canned goods and bottled water that I have put away in various places throughout my place along with ordinary staples like flour, sugar, and dried beans and grains that I have vacuum packed with my Foodsaver. It's all regular food we like to eat. We use up food and then replace it. Also keep extra paper supplies (toilet paper, Kleenex, etc.) I always keep spare food and supplies just in case of earthquakes (I'm in Southern California) or if there's another pandemic lockdown or serious problem. Most of my stored food is from Aldi and Walmart.

[@michaelaroberts7144]

If the apocalypse comes we are all screwed....

[@avacadman2155]

Thank goodness you are a naturals at both being frugal and prepping to preserve food stuffs! And such a good haul too, Daddy did very well!! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@MittenPrepperVet]

I'm DYING at the BOOTY shaper!!! 🤣🤣🤣🥳🥳

[@stephaniknight5809]

So fm. If you have a dehydrator, use pintest to learn how to dehydrate some potatoes and carrots. If not. You can use your oven at a low tempeture. Then you can vacuum seal them all. You can put cereal and chips and stuff in a mason jar and vacuum seal it closed. It will keep it from going stale longer. I have done that and it last a year past its date without going stale

[@DUMPSTERDIVINGADELAIDE]

Good morning... Have a nice weekend 😀

[@freakinfrugal5268]

You too!

[@susansteele6714]

“It tastes like an apple” 😖 LOL

[@cyndimanka]

Lemon catnip. Bahaha. Funny

[@hannahblythe1985]

Great score for your prepping pantry frugal mommy, good range of food.

[@bellababooska4181]

I often have that song in my head that Frugal daddy sings " thank you Aldi, thank you Aldi" very strange and we don't have Aldi out here in Utah.

[@ShortFatBald666]

Another great haul. I hope your arm is ok. Really enjoy your victory dances. Puts a smile on my face every time.👍👍😊

[@kellybranson4719]

Frugal daddy , the onion your thinking about is a white sweet onion. Good to see you back on here and glad I am able to be watching you all again.

[@ericferguson68]

Our dogs love the open packs of hamburger, a little at a time. Frugal daddy sure did get a little of everything!

[@anne4083]

Ouch!! Hitting your elbow must have been so painful frugal daddy!! 😢😊 Lovin your aldi dance 😂😂💃🤗great haul as always.

[@chickchick33]

Oooohhhh. That was a Clint Eastwood "Let's get in there" moment. I'm all aflutter...

[@freakinfrugal5268]

I love clint!

[@joanneslattery3077]

EXCELLENT JOB Frugal Daddy, I have been prepping for the last Two Years now, but I still need more water and paper products. I still have not been able to find anyone that will go with me dumpster driving. But I plan on it sometime this week. I have to drive someone to her Dr appointments so she can sit in the car with my little Toby so he won't bark. I hope I can do as well as you both do. God Bless and stay safe and HEALTHY.

[@vinjulieann1]

Raw onions - - did he have to sleep on the couch that night? I shop at a Grocery Outlet store. Lots of things close to expiration. I recently got Dose & Co Vanilla collagen protein powder 14.8 oz - $1.97. Lairds Organic Peruvian coffee with functional mushrooms - $1.47 for a pound and a half bag. I stocked up on both of these by the cases. Beef is marked way down on the last day.

[@RedRoadgifts]

Frugal Daddy did great !!

[@annettewalter2273]

I agree with you preparing for inflation it has already started here.

[@williamdenton6427]

That was a nice aldi haul my replys to the you tube community has paid off somone is hitting my aldi pretty hard thats great our store was really heavy on produce and fruit and someone is getting it and thats good. i had to leave so much behind and now not too much is left and i am glad someone was enlightened by our videos and replys. That sparkling water and energy drinks is just so common here i would see hundereds of cans and bottles at a time.the last one was blueberry lemonade.

[@grannyprepper1181]

I love to eat raw onion, red onions are my favorite.

[@rakamas]

What a haul! Sweet onions are great on sandwiches, especially hamburger..yum yum. My mother would cut a reasonably thick slice and put it on there along with frugal Daddy's cheese slices. Very tasty. She would also use them with braunsweiger ( I hope I spelled that right can't remember right now). In the peanut protein bars breakfast bars I love those they are good and it's a good idea to have that to fall back on. 👍❤️😀👋, I know lots of times you get a bunch of berries various assortments have you ever thought of making your own wine?

[@Jojo257]

Wow daddy did good that's an awesome score love from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺🐨🦘❤️

[@MrsKimberly248]

Hello from Michigan ❤️😎👍🏼🎊🙏🏻

[@meganseastrom5467]

the Maui sweet onions are even sweeter than Vidalia and yes, you can eat them raw like an apple. Really good on bread with butter and lettuce. Great haul!

[@sharonbaulch]

Magical haul, especially since they are free! Great job frugal daddy. Love the talks we share and the recap of the finds, frugal mummy you make us feel like we are there. ENJOY your goodies 🛒

[@Linda-in9ns]

Good job 👍

[@itsonlyme4759]

Great rescue of fabulous goodies. The furbabies will love the fresh meat. I'm sorry FD but I did laugh when you whacked your elbow but great celebratory dance at the end of the dive ❤️❤️❤️

[@MrsKimberly248]

Hello 👋 From Michigan ❤️🙏🏻🎊👍🏼😎

[@madelinerose5326]

One of these early a.m.'s FD will find out that someone was also filming! Be safe, have another onion. Prefer the red/purple ones myself!

[@chrissymccallum1744]

My grandfather used to eat onions like that. He used to put salt on him. But then again he like to eat pigs feet !

[@Gardeningchristine]

When I was little my grandpa had me go to the garden and pick him some green onions every night for dinner. Good memories

[@lornamaynard9708]

Hope you have a wonderful mother's day

[@cyndimanka]

Forgot your jacket. But you have your head lamp. Awesome!!! One day you’ll have everything lol

[@amnakhan05]

I was thinking that here when I go to restaurant n after eating n some food is left so we tell the waiter to pack it for us.is this also a norm in USA ?

[@debgordon6542]

Yes, typically. There are some that look down on ppl leaving with leftovers. Years ago it started out being called "doggie bags", imo that gave taking home food a bad stigma. (Eye rolls from the the staff and neighboring customers) More recently, it's become acceptable. I always leave with a "take home bag"!!

[@debbiegoble9836]

Those loud noises made me think the trash man were there. They were going to get you. It scared me.😭😭😭

[@robynforman3072]

Early Hunter gather in action. So much saved from landfill. Greetings from England.

[@leilajary3307]

What a great haul F D. Good catch with the eggs. You two are so funny you crack me up. Keep up the good work xx 😜

[@robinbadura2226]

That hurts I commend you for holding your ouch words in becouse most people react with not so nice words and I think most are guilty a time or two...hopefully it didn't bruise your elbow....it sounded like you really banged it real good...great haul Fugule Daddy...!!...Amy I am very old school and was told as a youngster you must build a pantry and freezer because you never know what will happen in your life and if you have your pantry and freezer full you will not go hungry, may not be what you want but you will eat...you not have much fresh items but you will not starve...learn the basic, how to sew,cook,clean and how to budget and if you have space grow some veggies in the summer...freeze or canned and learn your money....!!

[@desirusin13624]

Yes. I enjoyed my birthday.

[@freakinfrugal5268]

Happy birthday!

[@mercedeslusk1969]

Hahahaha frugal Daddy made my day by dancing, love it!!!💖💖💖 Advance HAPPY mother's day frugal Mommy Amy 🌹🌹🌹💖💖💖

[@andradavis7201]

again over 1000.00 dollars good haul frugal daddy and mommy................awesome job...................no way could i buy all of that............yumyum.......

[@debicorwin6978]

I can’t believe FD ate some of that onion!! 😂😂😂😂❤❤

[@julez3161]

I know right! lol

[@reginajohnson446]

Might taste better if boiling water is pour over it. It remove the bitterness of it.

[@lynettecrowe8123]

Daddy did it again. When daddy found the chicken and called it cat chicken I don't know what my brain did but I imagined a cat with a chicken head or a chicken with a cat body. I couldn't stop laughing when daddy hit his elbow I hope he didn't hurt it to bad. Have a great weekend and say hi to the twins haven't seen them in a while in your videos. ❤❤❤❤

[@michellesampson1249]

This is such a great haul! So happy for you guys. I love onions. I like the purple onions too. I used to get the baby carrots but got a bag of the big ones and they have such a better taste. Anyone else think so? Great job FD!

[@laural.3563]

Yes and I believe I heard that baby carrots are really reg carrots cut and made into the baby and shred carrots ...lol so I started doing it my self ...works!

[@AB-un4io]

I think the whole carrots taste better as well. And a fresh one just plucked from the garden and washed?? They’re fabulous!! Used to do it all the time many, many years ago as a kid. If I wanted a snack I’d head to the garden. 😉

[@reseller2052]

Yes! I recently switched back to big carrots because they are sweeter and taste better.

[@franciegrimes5046]

Bye y'all and Happy Mother's Day frugal mommy.....great haul...granny franny

[@KatahadinKookingMamaHomestead]

I just put in dehydrator 5 helves on hash browns for storage ,made strawberry jelly and raspberry jelly. got kraut started and making more scooby kombucha and more sour dough starter

[@francisjohnson665]

The dog's and cats lucked out .👏👏. Lots of good food. 👍👍❤❤

[@sylviamaples1825]

I’ve been prepping by going weekly to a food bank that loads up your trunk, you just drive through, and it’s all kinds of stuff. Most of the time it’s cases of things including fruit, milk, they’ve given me two hams three weeks in a row. Thank goodness that I’ve got my freezer stuffed full, and my pantry is full. I go now to give away food to others.

[@claramiranda2049]

😂😂😂onion breath 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@shawncooper9999]

I am a Mennonite. I grew up helping out my grandmother full up her stock room up with dry goods and homemade can food and more she used one of bedroom for her stock room. My mom used the one room in the house to stock up on food she would get food meats and soups dry goods when it was in sale and she would can homemade pie filling and jams and vegetables and fruits and more she had 4 freezer she had one for 2 whole beef cows that she get one a year and one for breads and rolls and one for freezing vegetables and fruits and one for chicken and pork. I have one big room that I use to stock up on dry goods and can vegetables and soups and fruits. I have one freezer that I use for meats only. We are working on getting 3 more freezer.

[@princess94823]

Ouch!!! 😮 Great haul. Fun video 🎉 Sort of prep with a few Mountain House cans. I’m an RN, unopened medication is ok for 6 months after the expiration date. Love you guys😊

The booty shaping kit 💀 that’s too funny!

[@kathleendemeco9311]

I love hearing the birds. Awesome score Frugal Daddy.

[@sandytmobile4467]

Hello from Oregon, I'll be making salsa to can up and put away on September 1 st. I've made zucchini hot sweet pickles. Then if I get carrots, onions, to go with everything else I have for chicken stew. And beef stew. I'm trying to find dinner's we can just pop open a jar on a busy who's cooking day. I can't believe everything you find I keep adding it up and it's over a thousand or two sometimes three thousand wow I wish ours weren't locked up. Your both so happy 🥰

[@tessahugo1906]

I could not stop laughing,,Frugal Daddy is so funny..I really enjoy watching you both. Cape Town South Africa

[@cynthiaesposito5774]

Awaiting Frugal Daddy’s demo video of the booty toner! 😉 rofl. That was a really decent dive with meat veggies potatoes & cheese. Where did the chocolate chip cookies go?

[@myrnabergen5342]

Yes FD booty boot camp video please!!

[@terryhenderson424]

If I only have semi-supicions about how long meat will freeze or, if I've been struggling with freezer rotation - I will cook the meat then freeze the cooked meat. Of course, well seasoned then cooked meat works best for eating later on.

[@christhompson4270]

😂😂😂 awesome haul once again, well done guys. Thank you for sharing

[@denhat4034]

Happy Saturday afternoon frugal daddy found some good stuff I HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT NIGHT AND GOD BLESS YOU ALL

I'm not freaking out over not having food.

[@TRoxanne55]

The meat was probably a return so good thing you are cooking it up for the dogs.

[@mimi0424]

I screamed at the "booty shaping kit" & then Amy's editing of words on the screen lol. you two make me laugh! Great video! Cavatappi pasta is my fave..& it's a great pasta used when you have Pesto or Sauce..the way it's designed makes the sauce stick to it unlike some noodles that are smooth. it's great for Mac n cheese if you wanna be fancy lol

[@juliepoppe6294]

You two are so good at saving what other wise would end up in a landfill! Great haul!

[@sherryprofitt8746]

I think it's wonderful you folks save so much from the landfill. Thank you.

[@janelord3061]

Vidalias make great onion rings. They're not as good for cooking, because they have a subtle flavor.

[@lusnorthernhome3410]

Salami, cheese on a wrap. Carrots cooked in brown sugar glaze, zucchini slices baked in thin slices brushed with oil and Parmesan cheese sprinkled on it . Strawberries and whip cream. I see lots of meals.
