My husband and I have moved twice in the last three years trying to get our kids in a better school district. Finally landed in the area where he grew up that is now highly sought after for the school. We are here to stay, I’m definitely not moving 6 people and a dog ever again! 😂 loved your tips and we are now trying to really get our finances in order to start saving better. We realized we need to be better role models for our kids because neither of us were very financially literate growing up for different reasons. I’m about ready to start my garden back up and learning to make more things from scratch to help us save and give myself a better hobby 😊

Did this today for our family of 7. I bulk cook one day for the next few. Made 3 types of pasta (fettuccine, bow tie, and egg noodles) cause I needed to use it up. Made spaghetti sauce, beef tips, or Alfredo for their sauce of choice. Had leftover shredded chicken so I made a chicken casserole. Also made white rice and flavored rice. And made me some spaghetti squash. Only had to buy the heavy whipping cream extra. Everything else was in my pantry.

I feel you on teaching the kids to drive. We’ve done it three times. My husband did most of the teaching because I get anxious and tend to react too easily. But I’m the one who received the calls when two of them got into accidents. The oldest swerved to avoid an animal that ran out in front of him, not his fault, totaled his car. The youngest rear ended someone when she glanced at her phone.🤦🏼‍♀️ Fortunately not going very fast, not serious, but she was hysterical. She learned a good lesson that day… Mom was right, NO PHONE in the front seat while driving.

In basic training you really look forward to the letters and cards. I’m almost 60 now and I’m still a little hurt that my Mom nor anyone else bothered to write to me. I’m a minimalist now and don’t keep many sentimental items but I still have my brother’s letter from 1984.

I was the one who was on your “death end”. The reason why, my dad was a state trooper & he taught me FIRST HOW TO DRIVE. And then we also HAD “Driver’s ED” in high school. Where they took you out in a car with one other student to physically DRIVE. Our driver’s ed teacher made us run his errands for him, so we got LOTS OF DRIVE TIME IN SCHOOL! When I was 15 (1978) you got your “learners permit”. Then when you turned “Sweet 16” BAM!💥 you got your license (no if and or buts about it). Talk about a “nervous wreck”!! And that wasn’t the worst of it, since my daddy was State Patrol he worked the roads/hwys ONLY (NOT regular normal police stuff). So guess who more or less was ALWAYS was being WATCHED & CRITIQUED if caught driving on his shift😬 this girl! He retired as a State Patrol after his 30 something yrs were up. So I feel for you. But man, talk about being STRESSED OUT!! Not only was he my dad teaching me BUT he was also a STATE TROOPER WHILE TEACHING ME TO DRIVE!! My mom did NOT teach us or even ride in the car while being taught. THIS WAS DADS WATCH!! 🫨 ✌🏻

I am a rural Mail carrier, which means I have a car with a steering wheel, gas, and brake on the left AND the right. I saved us from reversing full power into the dumpster one of the first times my kid got behind the wheel. I'm sure it wasn't good for the car to have a teen foot in the gas and a mom foot on the brake, but the dumpster would have been way worse for it.

Yes your new idea in the works sounds like a great idea. Back when I was in school my mom always wanted me to take a FACS class so I could run my kitchen. One thing I didn’t learn from my mom or from school was meal planning. My mom always made an effort to have meat in the freezer so we’d have something to eat even though money was very scarce for us with only one income. Having a full tummy was more important than having the latest gadgets or the fancy clothes.

I love how much your family has fun!!! I've started "shopping" in my pantry, meal planning and shopping from that - wish I had done that when our son was young. Now it's just the 2 of us......I spend about $60/week now.....but we buy all our meat from local farmers.

I have been making the two ingredient dough and I bought a tortilla press, so it presses them thin and I make my own tortillas. the price is rising here. also makes a good flatbread, we make a greek seasoned chicken (cavendars seasonin) and do like a gyro-ish

We have 3 that we taught to drive. The oldest was the easiest because we were younger. The youngest 2 learned at the same time. I tried my best but I could only do the parking lot practice. I turned over the rest to their dad who said it was the worst thing he experienced as a parent and we have had a lot of trials. If I had to do it over again, I would pay for driving school. The other shocker was how expensive our insurance went when they had one car to share. The box of stuff was a learning experience! lol I have been to those kind of stores and the amount of this kind of food was overwhelming. Mostly, no nutrition and lots of sugar.

I can't plan ahead. I'm doing good to go through my pantry and freezer to pick what to eat today. That $5 box was worth buying just for the thrill of finding out what's in it.

This explanation of what you do and how you did it was the best for me, I hope you are not discouraged bc I know this is not new info on your channel. But maybe it was how you said it? It hit me better than before. Thank you for these videos, and the laughter and fun at the end.❤

After watching your videos for awhile, I finally went to a discount liquidation grocery store in my area. I didn’t find a lot of meal starting things like you have (sauce packets, etc) but I did find a ton of granola bars, cereal, oatmeal, crackers, tortilla chips etc. I found a lot of Annie’s and cliff bar brands and stuff from Whole Foods for insanely cheap. While I was there they told me about another discount grocery store with the more dinner/lunch stuff so I’m excited to check it out! It was helpful to compare the prices on my phone with the other stores apps and that helped me figure out if it was really a deal or not.
