I BLEW THE BUDGET | BIG SAINSBURYS AND ALDI GROCERY HAUL | life of the Baldwins 1

[@bernadettemcmahon9057]

What I'm seeing is how you are really putting your dinners together. I think you are doing great. The amount you are spending is where you are doing really well. If you think back before the virus, it was considered a norm to be spending 100 dollars per person. With a large family I think you're doing very well. Btw, Happy Birthday Kev!! We say O RE GA NO

[@naziabegum1836]

Happy birthday Kev!!! I think you should do “home lessons with the girlies” make them do a chore a day even if just wiping a door down each and some form of cooking esp now they’re being home schooled it’s tough when kids move out of home and they have to learn to cook and clean it’s like omg it doesn’t get done on its own? I make mine 7&5 tidy 5 things a day might just be picking something up putting something in the bin sorting a toy box literally doesn’t even take them long but it makes them realise they need to do it xx 😊

[@catherinebarlow3079]

They do cooking made bread last week and week before made fairy cakes

[@happy_clouds]

Good shopping haul, also you have chose nice meals for the family. You always seem to cook good balanced meals for the family lots of veggies and proteins. 🙂

[@valgodders]

Happy birthday Kev 👍🍻🍺🎂🎉 What a great idea getting the older ones to cook and hope that means they wash up too ? and getting them to do their own washing is a great idea as you say they need to learn all these life skills ❤ ❤

[@MumLifeAndMore]

Ham is a staple in our fridge, my kids love the stuff, their fave sandwiches 🥪

[@ljm9379]

Another brilliant food haul. Food is getting more expensive Especially fruit and vegetables. My daughter has taught her 13 son how to cook and Make simple foods and we have a baking session once a week To make cakes pasties etc. but to get him to tidy his room a different matter. My mum always said have a basic stock cupboard beans peas lentils and her favourite a tin of corned beef to make corned beef hash. Happy birthday Kev 21 again.enjoy your meal. ❤🎉

[@tracyjacob7091]

I love corn beef hash

[@huwinheaven]

you are so well organised for feeding them all xx

[@racheldodge6560]

lol you talking about the teens cooking made me chuckle. Alot of my friends say their kids can't cook an egg too so you're not alone.. I've always cooked with my girls infact one is now a head chef. During lockdown i had my then 9 year old making bread, cakes, various dinners all on her own(though she eats limited foods so didn't always eat what she cooked lol) But all my girls i wanted them to beable to cook, clean, do their own washing before they were college age. Now if only i could get the husband to do the same ;) haha

[@lifeofthebaldwins]

I think Felicity can cook better them Jamie 🤣 I definitely think boys have to have a genuine interest in food to want to learn to cook. Girls just seem to automatically want to learn how to cook. X

[@catherinebarlow3079]

​@lifeofthebaldwins boys brains don't work properly until there in mid 20s kayleigh but girls pick it up at younger age , by time l was 13could make Sunday dinner cooked breakfast and learn to make be-bo Christmas cake this was in early 80s when di cookery at junior high school

[@CarolandDave]

We were the same…🙈. Huge shop last week and this week is worse. I am shocking for stocking up with offers. I need to rein it in as well so never feel you are alone in that. Happy Birthday to Kev 🎉.

[@shannonmagee6618]

I think this is a fantastic idea. You are getting the teenagers to cook, when i left home I could cook a pasta dish but not anything else. I also wasn't sure how to use the washing machine. Do have to say though my parents did try and teach me but I wasn't bothered. Love your videos 😀

[@jamiebaynes9488]

Yes the American way makes sense to me from North Carolina 🇺🇸

[@marymcdonagh8957]

Good on you. 🙏🏻it all goes well.

[@tonidrabble6631]

I so feel your pain,my 18 yrs old son just started University, he's at Sheffield Hallam and was commuting,he now says he wants to live in, we only 40 minutes away but he's my only one so I've done everything for him. I had to talk him through making a pot noodles the other day, not got a clue what to do next with him. Soon wish he was 5 againxx

[@carolscammell3592]

Hi Kayleigh and Kevin and children hope you are all OK, another great food haul, and great food ideas ,have a good rest of the week x😊

[@lizfield6486]

Happy birthday for Monday kev, have a great day 🎂

[@axabella-roblox]

Kayleigh I watch your videos all the time and I always say to my partner kevin when we go shopping my budget is £150 to £200 I usually spend about £250 so I'm like u I go over budgetxand I'm only feeding 3 of us sometimes my big brother who has broken his left thumb amd elbow

[@GinaRussell-c2c]

I’m now stocking up on my Christmas treats so it’s costing me a little bit extra each week, (I have a Christmas cupboard) do you buy something extra each week for Christmas? 🤶 I love ❤️ your shopping hauls 😊😊

[@janeklebba]

Happy birthday for Monday kev

[@catherinebarlow3079]

Hi kayleigh just watching yesterday vlog while pre Sunday dinner while watch you your right how say oregano and happy birthday for tomorrow for kev

[@lisacorley1626]

You did really well Kayleigh you always have lots of fruit and veg I can spend two hundred thirty especially from ocado the prices are due to rise again thank you for sharing 😊❤

[@Mike_5]

Sainsbury's continue to display outstanding wickedness with their pricing

[@janice-ann7157]

Hi ,new subscriber here. I'm just wondering what is your budget for the month for food. I spend a small fortune every month on food as i buy lots of whole foods and meat. I make sure to shop at lidl or aldi but it soon adds up. I spend €950 a month for 2 adults and 3 big teens. I tried to get the bill smaller but unless I'm willing to switch to processed food then it's just not possible and I'm not willing to do that. Great haul. Meal plan sounds lovely ❤

[@lifeofthebaldwins]

Hi welcome to the channel. I budget for £175 a week, but I definitely spend another £25+ a week on top ups. I'd say we are definitely doing £800 a month. Which is eye watering, but when you break it down to per person per week its actually not that bad. X

[@janice-ann7157]

@@lifeofthebaldwins yeah it's crazy! We'll be rich when the kids have flown the nest 😅♥️

[@mohammedmiah5294]

Great 👍

[@uglenddalejones2]

I find the cost of your food shopping 🛒 totally credible because I’m on my own and I struggle to keep it in the fourty pound range, and I regularly fail. I’m unwell at the moment and it makes me shudder at the price of lemsip . I’m also incredulous at the lack of basic reasoning from people. You have a full house to feed,all great appetites. Everyone has what they will eat and enjoy and that’s how it should be.. 💜

[@janice-ann7157]

Oh-re-gano here in Ireland ❤

[@jacquelinehelliwell5954]

English way of saying oregano, we are not American, next thing in the UK will be bazil instead of basil !

[@roisinpatriciagaffney4087]

Hello to the Baldwins. Happy birthday 🎂 Kev, best wishes to you. Great haul, despite being slightly over! I do that quite often. Apparently the herb 🌿 is pronounced or-eg-an-o. Enjoy your birthday 🎂 dinner Kev, and Kayleigh. See you all next time. Thank you. ❤🎉❤

[@sharonchainey3642]

I've been cooking since I was 18 it's good that you can poop it the teenagers inplace I can make a chilli corncarni

[@clairehewick798]

Great haul Kayleigh 🤗🤗 happy birthday 🥳 Kev 21 again 😂😂😂 love chocolate spread and a little hint do Horlicks with hot milk tastes loads better love Claire from Bradford xx

[@kathrynryder9620]

How is home tutoring going?

[@danaroob]

I bought a few kgs of chicken breast today because it was on sale for $12.10 per kg. Haha Bloody Canada.

[@weronikakay7523]

Hi That is £6.69 so same price

[@susanmcmurray3624]

My friend does the same with her older daughter (22) living at home with her boyfriend…. They have to buy and cook the meal for the whole family 1 day a week. Love to hear how yours get on. Sure it won’t run that smoothly at first but give them time. It’s a change for everyone.

[@marymcdonagh8957]

Your pronunciation is correct Kayleigh - English English, not American English!

[@viviennejenkins7978]

😊❤❤

[@LisaRobinson-gx9jf]

Hope you are all ok

[@francisraffle2948]

Hi kayleigh its oregano in England was basil in england lovely meals your having it would save you money if you bought a sack of potatoes you could put the potatoes in a bowl of water peel them and your got washed potatoes anc you could have a look at veg in the farm shop if could be cheaper .love fran xxx❤❤❤

[@lesleyhart3907]

Origaaaaarno lol

[@itsdanielleslife]

OR A GARN O

[@cheekymonkey1223]

Kayleigh home bargains have the salt grinders really cheap 😊

[@rachelmcleod5609]

with felicity having a disability you could have a look and see if you would be entitled to a disability car for her?? I'm not sure how it works in England as I'm in Scotland x

[@lifeofthebaldwins]

Getting any form of disability benefits for Crps is very difficult. I'm a member of a few Facebook groups with people who have or have a child with crps, and there are so many stories about how they have tried and been refused as crps is so misunderstood and has no time frame. We don't get any financial support for Felicitys condition. But at present she is doing amazing, I'm hopeful that she will make a full recovery. X

[@dawnysdennumber10]

tbh i never heard Kev x
