Huge Costco Haul July 2017 | Marriage & Motherhood

In this huge Costco haul I share what we got for the month of July. My Costco hauls are family style vlogs. As a working mom, I try to buy some things i can cook quickly when I don't have time to meal plan or cook for a long period of time. What did you get from Costco this month?

i like how you show the flyer, then the items in the store, even when you don't plan to purchase, and then the final products at home.

[@alexismaycock4665]

Lol your husband at the beginning..."It's Costco time." 😂

[@MarriageMotherhood]

HAHAHA!

[@rng6095]

I always enjoy the girls with it's Costco Time, but your husband with It's Costco Time took it to another level & was priceless. I guess he was like why did she put the camera on me. He made my day I just bust out laughing....Mrs. Jia thank you so much for these hauls. Everything I have purchase has been AWESOME...you always make my shopping at Costco easy. Thank you for sharing.

[@MarriageMotherhood]

+Rosie K hahaha! Thanks Rosie!

[@MommaFromScratch]

Awesome haul! The lunch pales are really nice they last my husband a year half for everyday use!

[@cindyb8775]

jia, nobody does costco as good as you girlie. I so wish we had a costco in wv.

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Thanks so much Cindy!

[@DebraGabriella]

I love Costco hauls! I typically buy Dave's Killer bread, the organic eggs, Kerry Gold butter, cherries my Costco still had the Rubbermaid Fresh Works produce saver for $19.99 so i picked up another box. Been using them a lot this summer after hitting up farmers markets to keep everything fresh. Tfs!

[@AmberGilbertson]

My hubby loves that lunch pack! He works outside and it keeps his food cold in the heat! This is his second summer with it! Hubby also has that pillow and is a back sleeper and he really like the pillow as well. Succulents in my opinion are very easy to kill, they are the fastest plant I've killed lasted 3 months.

[@hannahxx17]

Succulents are nearly impossible to kill. Sunlight bit of water every now and then. If a leaf falls off throw it in your garden and it will grow a whole new plant! Our garden is over flowing with them now because of that.

[@ddrianaa]

Yes I LOOOVEE back to school videos! I've watched them since I was psh end of middle school/ all high school! I'm 20 now and I still love them lol!

[@Ronniethegoblin]

I work in retail and it's back to school season nation wide. Summer for retail ends July 4th. At Michaels we have a lot of our fall during then. We get back to school out at the end of June. It's crazy, I know but there are lots of teachers buying supplies and people that free lance. We have almost all of our fall stuff out now.

[@sandraaa8496]

I have 4 kids and I'm breastfeeding. lately we have been running out of food so fast. my 2 boys are 5 and 9, aside from my husband their appetites are so insane. I told my husband we NEED to consider going to Costco or BJ's for our groceries now that we run threw food like it's our job lol. this video gave me a great idea of what it's like there and how I'd definitely save money and less trips to the grocery store. also I'm happy to see they have organic options too!

[@mommytoaxel]

Yay i subscribed at the beginning of the video, BUT when i saw you're doing Keto!!!! I hit that bell button!!! That's EXACTLY why I'm watching Costco Haul videos to spot Keto Friendly Foods!!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Awesome! I love it!

[@zia7586]

TIFFANY GARCIA me too

[@MoNATUREnique]

The organic beef there is great. I buy it every haul. I use the avocado interchangeably with olive oil. But avocado oil is great for high heat. The taste is light.

[@sarahlovesfenway25]

all meet in Ireland is grass fed and it was absolutely amazing! I lived there for a year and a half and I miss the cheap, fresh, and quality foods!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

WOW! Thats amazing!

[@sarahlovesfenway25]

Marriage & Motherhood it is! And I cannot believe I put "meet" instead of "meat!" That's what I get for late night commenting. Loving your videos!

[@rsklmn]

Jia, I love your Costco videos and we actually got a membership after watching several of your hauls! They are awesome and you have so many helpful tips...Costco should pay you for marketing hehe! Blessings!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

HAHAHA! I wish! Thanks for watching!

[@melissablais6030]

I am so far behind...just recently found your channel. I love the avocado oil from Costco. And grass fed and organic aren't necessarily the same thing. My husband and I purchase our grass fed beef from a local farmer. Once a year we do a bulk order of a 1/4 of a cow. Saves us money for our family of 5, and we have a big freezer that we can store it in for the year. I love Costco, and really enjoy watching your hauls, and cook with me videos 😁

[@brittkini6417]

I am also on the hunt for a good pillow! Would love to hear your thoughts on the one you just purchased! Btw I love watching your Costco hauls 😊

[@kimberlynorton312]

I second what Britt says about the pillow!!! Please let us know what you thought about it. :)

[@laurenloveslists1510]

I loooove Costco! just did my first haul video because I love watching other peoples Hauls so much! I'm in Canada so I love seeing what moms in the US are getting at Costco! it seems you have many things that my costco doesn't have!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

+Lauren Loves Lists awesome! I'll have to check it out.

[@shirleygriffin3060]

Hi Jia, I am a fan of the avocado oil ! It is easy to use, and does not change the flavor of my recipes. A bonus is that it has a high smoking point, so it's good for stir fry. (For those veggies on your keto diet plan!) Enjoyed your review of sale items at Costco... did you buy the toothbrush heads? 😬 Thanks! Shirley

[@ironicasellers929]

Please update us on the pillow as well as the lunch boxes.... Thanks love the video

[@joycecook8876]

I use the grass fed ground beef and love it! If you have an Aldi Store, they sell it too and it's a dollar more per package so it's a good deal at Costco. As for Avocado oil, I use in lightly sautéed things and in my home made salad dressing. Love it! No heaviness or aftertaste.

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Good to know! Thanks for watching!

[@marianamuller9279]

I love Cosco time!!! Lovely your girls!! Greetings from Uruguay South América!

[@diannevans407]

Please review the pillow, I am on the same journey and I didn't like the My Pillow either! Thanks for your Costco hauls, they are the best ones because you take us with you and give us tons of information!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Thank you so much Diann! I'm loving the pillow so far but its only been a few days!

[@Jcasper7]

I got my son that lunch box!! We only have Sams club where I live. The lunch box was the same kind but came with a water bottle that had its own pouch to put it in on the box!

[@RaisingBoys]

J Casper I have Costco and Sam's near me and checked out both lunch boxes. I ended up purchasing the ones at Sam's because I loved the water bottle on the side!

[@elaineharrison8623]

HI Jia! I bought the lunchbox for my husband last year and he loves it! His only came with 1 ice pack 🤔 other than that it looks the same I caught his on sale for 9.99 to.

[@ccinhd]

okay jia!!! mission accomplished. thanks to your costco vids...we've converted over to a costco membership versus sams. today was trip #1 and we stocked up on some great items. they definitely need to collab with you Lol. thanks for all you do 👍🏽

[@kacistrickland4397]

I would love to know how you like that pillow. I want to buy one but I don't want to buy it if it's not a good pillow.

[@newcheveu]

I love that map too. I brought it twice But my husband broke it both time by throwing the garbage cans over the fence 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️. That beef is grass fed and pretty good.

[@tiffanyjones9741]

Can you share the measurements of that lunch bag please? I absolutely love your channel and cannot wait to hear your keto journey

[@nicholasruppert2574]

Is it me or did that desk look like a big Iphone? Lol

[@hideer12]

I don't know if y'all eat steak regularly at home but try using the ginger dressing has steak sauce if you do...it is so good. I would literally get a Costco membership just for that sauce!!!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Ohhh yummy! That sounds delish! I'll definitely try that next time.

[@simplylaurissa5834]

Our costco is opening up at the end of the month! Super excited 💓 love your videos

[@MarriageMotherhood]

You are gonna love it!

[@themillersbuiltupontherock7301]

Love your videos !!! The children's work books are fabulous!!! We are book worms 🐛! Did you see the new Contigo water bottles that keep a snack in the top ?? They are super cute !

[@Dayanegarcia]

Hi! Have you tried ecco egg to wash clothes? I'm trying it and it seems nice to replace laundry soap and save some money. In my case 300 bucks in 2 years.

[@lottiedah903]

YAAAAAAS! I'm so happy you are eating keto! It's the BEST. I've been keto for a little over a year & I LOVE it! Go, girl! BTW, that organic ground beef is NOT grassfed...same deal at my Costco....no grassfed beef in sight, and no pastured eggs either. Although I did order grassfed steaks on Costco.com last month when they were on special. I have a subscription to Butcher Box, which does the grassfed beef and some pastured pork as well. OTher than that, you can get grassfed ground beef at Aldi or Trader Joes, or maybe your local market (I shop at Giant here in suburban Philly & they have it too). TJs even has really great grassfed steaks.

[@onlypinklady0332]

I'm going today and your video was very helpful. Thank you.

[@jennamae01]

Lol...loving the terminator in the beginning ...Its's Costco time...New sub here and im loving your family.

[@FREETOFAMILY]

I'm getting a membership for back to school!!! I'm hoping to get the exclusive membership so I can get cash back...is that what you have??? Does the Costco flier that you have in the car come in the mail?😍

[@ErinR0618]

my flyer comes in the mail

[@nicbd6103]

Hey Jia! Yes please show the Keto diet you are trying. Also, what do you cook with the meatballs?

[@neenee3841]

I think you did great with your total incl the extras. $100 per family member for the month seems reasonable. Do you also make supermarket trips throughout the month?

[@freedominabudget]

That 3 tiered basket is sooo cute!!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

+Freedom In A Budget i know right?!?

[@TF-MJ]

Girl I just got a Costco membership!!!! These videos are super helpful for a newbie like me!!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

YAY! Don't you love it?!?!

[@theowensthree]

seperate videos of the pillow and Keto! I love avocado oil!!! can't tell a taste really at all

[@francesca9263]

OMG yes I love water wipes I load up when I go to to target

[@wildfyrefarmlife8638]

I love avocado oil. I use it when I make dressings. Great flavor.

[@redjezebelle25]

Great haul!! The avocado oil does not have a taste like olive oil and its great for cooking especially for frying👍

[@princezzfeyi]

The grass fed ground beef is really good!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Can't wait to try it!

[@fluteloop696]

Another amazing video! Your girls are so big!

[@DirkBossard]

The Dyson fans and new heaters are fanfastie, expensive but best quality

[@erinthetraveler6168]

Looking forward to your keto video. I've been keto since September. Never going back!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Isn't it AWESOME! My body feels AMAZING! Energy is great! Thanks for watching!

[@Breezeeone]

Your family is adorable!! Love your videos!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Thank you so much!

[@carmenbowen2038]

Thank you so much for all you do- love your videos! I didn't know you were trying keto- I also am eating this way! How's it going? Would love to hear feedback/suggestions from you on it- thx!

[@gayesims1293]

The Costco organic ground beef is SO flavorful! If you are used to leaner beef, it will be greasier. I figure it's "healthy" grease. ;) Avocado oils is great - it doesn't have a taste to me.

[@marroosh]

I love the keto diet. I always stock up on spinach, eggs, avocado, salmon. Staples in my fridge!

[@MarriageMotherhood]

YES! Me too!

[@aprilstevenson5303]

I looooooooove that pillow 🙌🏾💯🙌🏾💯

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Me too!!!!

[@theresac5329]

Love your videos, just subscribed! I would love to know how the pillow worked out for you.

[@heathercoe542]

Your girls are adorable!! Enjoyed the haul!! :)

[@thatsamomslife6966]

Organic beef is amazing. The best way to explain it is that it taste buttery. 😂 Its tender and very flavorful. Also If you have a Sprouts Farmers Market Store near you keep an eye out for the Organic Beef as it goes o same for $2.99 a pound vs $5.99-6.99 a pound. When that happens we stock up easily $100 worth.

[@MarriageMotherhood]

I'll definitely check that out. Thanks for watching!

[@IChooseGod01]

I love their organic ground beef!!👍🏾

[@Wifeandmotherof1]

Hi Jia! Could you post some lunch and dinner meal prep videos?

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Yes! Those are definitely coming!

[@HomeCleanHome]

I love the avocado oil I use it to make quesadillas

[@Mariepecquet]

Omg your family is too cute! I totally lol "it's Costco time" 😎

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Thank you!

[@Lele2323bk]

Thanks again for sharing!! my son likes the backpack so now I have to run out to Costco and get it while it's on sale! Enjoy your day! :)

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Thank you same to you!

[@JCaesthetic]

I really like the workbook!

[@dianefreedman7390]

Ha ha, entering the stage of the girls picking our their own outfits! My 9 yr old wore a striped maxi skirt with a non-matching (not even close) striped t-shirt tonight. She insisted and I was like, well... um... ok... LOL It's all about confidence right?! ha ha

[@MarriageMotherhood]

+Diane Freedman hahaha! I'm not ready!

[@Jcasper7]

Interested in hearing about the Keto diet. (Not sure if I spelled that right lol)

[@nyawoodberry6339]

J Casper same!

[@debbies9838]

me too

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Yes. Thats right! I seriously feel AH_MAZING! I'll be sharing soon!

[@nataliemanriquez9380]

You should try the Casper pillow at Target. CoffeebreakwithDani RAVES about the pillow. she says it is a pillow within a pillow.

[@MarriageMotherhood]

I'll definitely give it a try. Thanks for watching!

[@amyjacobson1275]

I don't notice a taste difference with avocado oil. In dong some Research you should Heat olive oil, you should use it cold like in dressings. It hold the nutrients that way.

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Good to know! Thanks for watching!

[@temeculazone]

Hi there Jia .... First of all, I'm a new subscriber and I love your channel. Second, you mentioned the "Ketosis Diet" in this video. I would love to see that KZbin if it's available now. If you have it in an upcoming video, would you please put the working "Ketosis Diet" in your description? I'm very interested in the Ketosis Diet. I've been watching this KZbin channel done by a doctor named; Dr. Eric Berg DC. He has got 670,000 + subscribers. Thank you, Steve

[@adjones87]

Organic and Grass Fed aren't the same. It needs to say "Grass Fed" on the package. Otherwise, "Organic" could just mean they're fed with Organic Grain. Also, "Grass Fed" could mean that they were only fed with grass the last 6 months of their life (that's all that's required). Most meat cows are slaughtered fairly young but there's the loophole. I suggest finding a local grass fed cow farmer if you're willing to pay that much. You can even visit their farm and see how happy (or unhappy) their cows are...that's important. Our farmers market has local meat farmers. We don't really eat cow because we can't afford the local grass fed stuff. We harvest our own deer 👍🏻

[@inezchristopher1801]

so sad no Costco where I live. I enjoy the videos anyway.

[@dylansoldersister]

Your girls are too adorable!

[@shayjtarot]

I love your hauls. your doing great

[@Avaerica22]

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Thanks Erica!

[@rmespe]

6.99 for eight is actually pricey for back to school prices. Walmart has them for 50cents each.

[@MarriageMotherhood]

[@LidiaRandomLife]

adorable Family, fun video

[@keeleypowell6121]

That play yard is about $100 on Amazon. $100 at Costco is a good deal!

[@dianewashington1759]

[@KarenReep]

Awesome haul!!! I just posted my haul on my channel.😊 I purchased the Ecos detergent for the first time, I can't wait to try it. I was so close to buying that griddle.

[@MarriageMotherhood]

Me too Karen! I'll have to go check out your haul. Thanks for watching!

[@whitneyramirez1866]
