FIRST TIME food shopping in the MOST EXPENSIVE store in the UK *Fortnum & Mason | FOOD HAUL

#Fortnum&mason #foodhaul #groceryhaul #shoppingchallenge
Hey FreeGang! Thanks for tuning into another food shopping video! 🙏😃
Today we are heading to Fortnum & Mason in Piccadilly London the most expensive store in the UK. We are only going to their food department to see how much we can buy on a budget.
This video is good for anyone interesting in Fortnum and Mason, anyone looking for money saving tips, shopping on a budget and anyone interested to see if these big expensive stores are worth going to and to see if you can snag the odd bargain.

Who wants a no budget F&M shopping haul? 🙋‍♀️ me!

[@FamilyFreedom]

No budget at Fortnum & Mason, that sound like a lot of fun! Expensive but fun😂👌💚

Pickled sprouts? Now that’s something you don’t see every day! 😄

I know Ally, we’re actually quite excited to try them 🤣💚 Sending big hugs 🤗

This video was great as I've never seen inside Fortum and Mason. Really enjoyed getting a peak inside

Can't wait to see you guy's do a no budget shop at this place again but with Jojo Hope Jojo loved his pickled clementines 🤔

[@FamilyFreedom]

That sounds like a fun idea Aka! JoJo hasn't tried them yet, but we can't wait to see if he likes them 😂👌

Glad you liked it Sophie 🤗

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Another awesome video and food challenge and 😋 food. I went to the local M&S and I wasn't impressed with the range of food and it was missing essential ingredients that I can find in discount stores and other retailers and I wouldn't expect that from a store that has a reputation for being expensive so I don't think I will be food shopping in M&S again. Love 🥰 the video and love ❤ Bob, 💕 Katie & 🧡 JoJo.

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks for your comment David! We're sorry to hear how it was for you in your M&S, it can vary from store to store which can be a little frustrating! We hope you have a great weekend 😊

[@catherineclark2949]

Great haul, cannot believe how much you bought. I didn't think they would have so many sales items either xx

[@WilliamB161]

Hope you guys have a great weekend I’ve never heard of this shop before ❤

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks William, we hope you have a great weekend too! 👍

[@CrazieFrogz]

Pickled brussel sprouts.. oooo i am interested in trying that

I know 😋 We haven't seen anything like that before! We liked that Fortnum and Mason had some very unique products 💚

[@tammiemiller8272]

Thanks for sharing this place looks amazing and almost like Harrod's to glad i was eating while watching this take care and Just Keep Rising 💚☝🏾

Hi Tammie, so glad you enjoyed the video! Fortnum and Mason is very similar to Harrods, especially the prices! Always a good idea to grab something to eat while watching these types of videos 👌😋💚 Take care too and just keep rising 💫

[@anne1961]

Wouldn't shop there even if I was rich I love a bargain ❤

Loved this episode. Next time I'm in UK I'll have to go to Fortnum and Mason. Thanks😊

[@FamilyFreedom]

It's definitely worth a visit even if to just walk around! 👍

[@patriciasmith9254]

You should travel to Scotland and Wales to see what different shops and food these places have. When you get your van back. So it will be a travel and shop vlog. 🐕🐾🐾🇬🇧

[@FamilyFreedom]

That's a great idea Patricia, thanks for suggesting. We definitely want to visit some new and different stores in different areas 👍

[@TheoriginalANGEK439]

They do do hampers. Very extravagant. And expensive. But very nice..👍

[@joanfreestone1707]

I always wanted to go to Fortnum and Mason. In 2018 we managed to get to England on holiday and my cousin (a London cabbie) took us there. I absolutely loved it and if I lived in London I would go there often. Last Christmas, a store here in Australia had some Fortnum's things. I couldn't afford a wicker hamper (which I really wanted) so I settled for a shopping bag. Thanks for another look at lovely Fortnum's.

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Joan, thanks for your comment. We hope one day you do get to go there as it's a lovely place to walk around even if you don't buy anything 😊

[@lorrainebarrett77]

Bob and Katie glad you got to Fortnum&Mason Beautiful store Treat yourselves at another time to afternoon tea

[@FamilyFreedom]

We would love to go back to Fortnum and Mason for afternoon tea! Thank you for the idea Lorraine 💚🤗

[@tracyjacob7091]

That shop looks well posh, hi guys.. From Brighton 🎉

[@mackensierose9064]

You should buy the cheapest item from each isle of any supermarket and make a meal from it 😂😂

[@tracyjacob7091]

I like that idea

[@FamilyFreedom]

That is such an awesome idea! Thank you 🙂👌

[@aka4445]

Same only heard of them around a week ago on someone else's grocery haul video

[@FamilyFreedom]

It's a lovely place and worth a visit 😊

[@lauraspear434]

The cherry and chocolate curd is amazing

[@FamilyFreedom]

Sounds delicious 😋

[@SuperMissblueeyes]

Your plan for using those soups with the pasta reminded me of something. My friend runs a small local food bank for a housing estate. One of the things she used to love me doing (I can't get the stuff to her now, unfortunately, so have to donate to a different food bank) is to buy a 1kg pack of pasta & one or two of those cans of "Big Soup". That helps to feed a family, believe it or not. When she gave it to them, she would add some fresh produce & possibly some meat (pretty much nobody on the estate is vegetarian or vegan). That makes a hearty meal for a whole family.

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks for sharing! That for sure is a good way to feed a lot of people for a small amount 😊

[@SuperMissblueeyes]

Hi guys so interesting thanks🌹🥰

[@tonycasey3183]

When I was at uni in Durham donkeys years ago, there was this incredibly posh lad (think Harry Enfield as Tim Nice-But-Dim) whose parents sent him a massive Fortnum and Mason hamper every term. He called Fortnum and Mason "Fred's" "Fancy a spot of lunch at mine, chaps? My people have sent a basket from Fred's" was a sentence I loved hearing!

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Tony, thanks for sharing this, it gave us a good giggle 😂 The Tim Nice-But-Dim reference was essential for us to truly picture this!!! 🤣

[@lululane3437]

Hello guys, it is such a beautiful place and is filled with a whole variety of different products, I really enjoyed this, thank you so much

[@LittleBitofSunshine]

I’ve never heard of this shop 😮 I always feel super intimidated in posh shops 😂 especially with Harrison I feel like a toddler and posh shop never ever mix 😂! But I think I’m too much of a commoner but I do love supermarkets and finding new food stuff! ❤️

[@FamilyFreedom]

We know how you feel Shauna! We've grown up similar, but have found that visiting these kind of places only benefits us even if we're only just looking around, so we'd definitely recommend it or somewhere similar!

Hi family freedom hope you are well and having a good day! Yes fortnums! I have been waiting for this vlog! Still on my bucket list to go there i was put of going to harrods as i was reading the rules and something about a water bottle you cant take in,i always carry my reusable one so that threw me off and then i felt like i was gonna break something and that i would get weird looks if i went to harrods as i wouldn't fit in as its a posh shop!😂😂 so decided ill leave going!😂 I do like the colours of fortnams and harrods it makes everything look even more expensive 😂. Fortnums have reduced things!😮 Take care Just keep rising 💚🌻🌿

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hi Lana, we hope you're well and having a good day too!! Glad you we finally managed to go to Fortnum & Masons! We're pretty sure you were the first person to suggest it :) Don't worry about that, we took our water bottles in both places and it was fine! You should definitely go, you will fit in just fine, it will be a lovely day out! We love the colours too! And yes reduced items!! We couldn't believe it either 😂👌 Also just to let you know we went back to Ikea again as I wanted to buy some pink things for my kitchen and noticed that the mustard is now available in the actual food section! :) Take care too!!

Probably too expensive to have a store in Scotland and if they opened one it would probably be in either Glasgow, Edinburgh or St.Andrews.

[@zoobledooble7748]

Great video 👍🏼 I think it's really sad that the rich can eat products that are healthy minimalist ingredients when people with less money who Carnt afford much will buy the same thing but it will have about 30 extra unnecessary ingredients in that don't need to be there, same with the fruit and veg none sprayed organically grown and fruits with seeds in while we get the man made sprayed none seeded foods with chemical packaging. £90 for mushrooms will be like 90 pence for a rich person so nothing to them, which there's no hate on them but I do think we should have the option to eat the same and have the same healthy foods. It's confusing to me how food made with less ingredients, less packaging and that is healthy is priced more than foods with tuns of unnecessary ingredients and has more packaging, I think we can all guess why 😒

[@FamilyFreedom]

You're absolutely right, and we appreciate that you've brought this up. The good, simply and healthy foods with less ingredients should be the cheapest and most accessible to everyone, whereas the more complicated foods with lots of ingredients should be higher priced! 👍
