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 😩

[@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.

[@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.

[@karenemrick8677]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@pauper177]

you never let us down daddy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@andradavis7201]

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

[@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.

[@loreeshine1196]

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

[@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.

[@francisconcepcion6084]

wow n wow sir from Philippines

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@chickchick33]

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

[@freakinfrugal5268]

I love clint!

[@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!

[@lornamaynard9708]

Hope you have a wonderful mother's day

[@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

[@annettewalter2273]

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

[@SuperAbcdabcdabcdabc]

Talking to the egg. Funny

[@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....

[@freakinfrugal5268]

You too!

[@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!! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@marlo2919]

I read the pasta salad as lemon catnip too at first glance lol.

[@marygronert6757]

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

[@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 ❤️

[@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"!!

[@valerienorman8811]

Aldi's always seems to have all the good stuff but you've come up with some really great stuff stay safe out there God bless you guys I've been following you guys for quite a while now and I love your videos love you guys

[@freakinfrugal5268]

Thanks so much

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

[@tc41089]

Lovely! I don't believe the dates on the pkgs either! Love your channel!

[@MrsKimberly248]

Hello 👋 From Michigan ❤️🙏🏻🎊👍🏼😎

[@rubyred8845]

The runaway egg ... lol. I hope your elbow is better now Duane

[@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

[@pattscollectons1234]

Lol....great haul.

[@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 🥰

[@lorrainemcdonald7332]

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

[@freakinfrugal5268]

Especially Walmart's produce!

[@lisaknepp3352]

Great haul

[@peggsargent7192]

Love y’all

[@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.

[@desirusin13624]

Yes. I enjoyed my birthday.

Amy do you have a dehydrator? You can dehydrate eggs ,carrots, tomatoes etc . . It can be stored for up to 5 years .

[@anne4083]

[@sandrabailey6888]

Onions are really good for you. If your feeling under the weather make some onion soup You’ll feel better by the next day.🤚🏻

[@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.

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@sueyoung8697]

I'm like u, I don't believe in those dates either, I mean growing up, I don't remember my mom or my grandparents working about dates so I was never taught to worry about it and I have eatin out of date stuff and I'm still living at 62yrs old.

[@RedRoadgifts]

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

[@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?

If you noticed most of the dates on the packages say sell by date. Use or freeze by that date. And of course if you dehydrated you have manipulated it to where it will last way longer.

[@kirstenscholz4482]

Hello from Germany :-)))) ...In our Country the bank replases spoiled banknotes , BUT only if you have more than half of the banknote --- the smaler part is not taken ...that is to avoid people to bring 2 parts in different banks to get the money replaced :-))

[@kirstenscholz4482]

Even completely burned banknotes can brought there and they have specialists who count the burned money to be replaced ( p.e. a house burned down )

[@annettewalter2273]

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

[@danamama6766]

Ouch ouch ouch. Nothing worse than banging your funny bone :( So glad you could dance still that haul was well worthy of the happy dance. Nice dive wow.

[@dianeknight4839]

When I was younger I used to eat Lemons, the best ones I ever had were straight off the tree on the Greek Island of Crete. Great haul but I remain astounded by the amount of what I would term junk food available in the US. No wonder there is an obesity and diabetes crisis. For people in poor areas or on a fixed income, the junk foods are the ones at the lowest price are the only things affordable. Here in the UK we have food banks (it is free) and also Social Services will deliver a weekly free box of produce to low income families.

[@KatahadinKookingMamaHomestead]

[@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.
