Large Family Grocery Haul: Costco, Trader Joe's, Sam's Club, Jewel, and Meijer Hauls (Around $400!!)

[@Judita00]

I love how realistic this is! :D I get really disappointed when you watch some family size grocery hauls that have SUPER clean stuff there and I´m like.. ´´Stop bullshitting me and telling me that your 3 yo loves flax seeds and kale like no.. bye Felicia´´:DD

[@Bananas904]

I'm amazed how your husband didn't come home with a lot of junk food and snacks. I can't trust my husband with the groceries!

[@classylifeboutique]

+TheGinnaWinna LOL :) My husband has been doing most of the grocery shopping for a few years so he's used to buying what's on the list and he's used to buying mostly healthy foods. Thanks so much for stopping by my channel!

[@heygodareyouready]

Love this! So many beautiful, organic products!

[@classylifeboutique]

+heygodareyouready Thank you! :)

[@SimplyHonestLiving]

I love how you buy mostly organic. I really need to be more conscious about doing that. Amazing haul!! Subscribed!! :)

[@classylifeboutique]

+Mom On A Mission Thank you! I just hopped over to your channel and subscribed, too! I'm looking forward to your videos. :)

[@SimplyHonestLiving]

Thanks so much!!! :) Have a great day!!

[@3for3get3]

You have a very soothing voice and you presented everything in a "professional" manner. I liked this video compared to others. Good Job!!

[@classylifeboutique]

Thanks for the sweet comments! And thanks for watching. I hope you have a great week. :)

[@TiinaSoCute]

I agree! Sweetest voice :)

[@KIMKIDS]

Great haul :) I'm new to your channel and I'm a mom of 7 kids from Canada :) looking forward to getting to know you guys more :)

[@Chicken404]

how about getting a filter so you guys dont have to buy gallons of water? just curious since i was thinking it could be easier..

[@classylifeboutique]

+professionalmartinez Thanks for the suggestion. We've had a filter on the faucet in the past, and we've also done Brita pitchers, etc... but the main reasons we buy water are because the city we live in has very hard water and because we try to avoid fluoride when/where we can. It's impossible to completely avoid fluoride 100%, because it's in the water that we cook with, wash clothes with, etc... but in order to consume less of it, we buy bottled spring water, which is actually pretty inexpensive. Someday, we'd like to be able to get a water filtration system that removes even fluoride from the water, but those are pretty expensive. Thanks for stopping by my channel. I hope you have a great week.

[@Chicken404]

Iknew youhad a reason! 😊

[@whitneystearns6461]

+The Sensible Mom : I hope you at least recycle the water jugs?

[@classylifeboutique]

+Whitney Stearns Yes, we recycle the jugs and lots more in our home. :)

[@whitneystearns6461]

+The Sensible Mom Awesome. :)

[@NessieS93]

Subscribed a minute in..What a lovely lady you are..Your children are so lucky. Looking forward to more videos of yours. 💜

[@classylifeboutique]

+Vanessa S Thank you so much for your sweet comment! And thanks for watching. :)

[@yeseniasolis4042]

Hi you will be hooked on Ezekiel bread , its so good and its the healiest bread to eat.

[@derekvaldez3851]

Salute & Respect to all the moms & dads who works very hard so they can provide good nutritious food for their families especially their children.

[@jewellm61]

OXOX makes a wonderful can opener called Good Grip. There are no cut edges. The can opener just cuts along the edges of the can. Its great if you have arthritis or weak hands. I got it from Amazon for about $20 as a Prime member.

[@classylifeboutique]

+jewellm61 Thank you for letting me know. :) We have a Zyliss can opener at the moment but I will keep the Good Grip in mind. Thanks for stopping by my channel!

[@shartman2150]

Hey there! I just found your channel. What a great grocery haul. Nice your hubby did all the shopping. I like grocery shopping but 5 stores is lot! We buy a lot of the same things at Costco but didn't like the stone ground flour. I wish they had regular organic flour. I feel like I need to make a Trader Joes trip now. :) Thanks for sharing.

[@meganjinez]

Oh my, I can't wait to get to Meijer to see if I can find those homemade corn tortillas! Thanks for sharing.

[@classylifeboutique]

They're delicious and we'll definitely be buying them again. Thanks for watching! :)

[@BellaEssentialLiving]

YEAH! I just quit coffee, too! I'm drinking the "PERO" we have to replace my morning warm drink - since it's hot I am drinking it alot less now. My hubby does the shopping too! :) So glad to hear of another shopping dad! Just subscribed - so happy to find someone with more similar eating habits! (organic/raw sugar & pink salt /less meat/everything I see in your videos!)

[@chloeslearninggymnastics1046]

That is the BEST past from Costco! We love it

[@classylifeboutique]

Thanks for watching! We love shopping at Costco. :)

[@chloeslearninggymnastics1046]

That was meant to be "pasta" lol. Loving your channel.

[@emmac6365]

I'm 13 and this is helping me learn for life 😂 I absolutely love grocery hauls and I'm not sure why 😂 Lol! Loved this video! Great channel ❤️

[@classylifeboutique]

+Emma C Awww...Thank you so much! You're a smart girl to be spending time learning about home management now. :)

[@emmac6365]

+The Sensible Mom No bother and thank you too! ☺️🌸

[@mymonkeybusiness4444]

Me to girl

[@mo2bb]

Costco has frozen organic broccoli that's is wonderful and a good price, not sure if every Costco has it, but you might wanna try it .

[@classylifeboutique]

+HomeIsWhereMyHeartIs Thank you for letting me know that. We will definitely look into seeing if our local Costco stocks it. :)

[@sharlenehayden2412]

Yes! I got the bag of frozen broccoli from Trader Joe's and it was mostly "crumbs" 😒 but the frozen broccoli from Costco is awesome. They come in smaller portioned bags (which I love) and it's so crisp and "fresh".

[@bsthomas425]

In my area it is way cheaper to buy the big blocks of cheese and shred it. You might look and see for yourself.

[@classylifeboutique]

+Susie Thomas Thanks for sharing that tip. I think I'll try that in the future. :)

[@peekk84]

Hi, new sub here. This video 'sold' me to your channel, I LOVE frugal BUT healthy grocery hauls!

[@classylifeboutique]

+Katy K Thank you! :)

[@marjoleint3592]

Hi there, I have five kids too so its interesting to see what you've got although we live in a different part of the world. My husband does the groceries sometimes but he always comes home then with all sorts of junkfood, cookies, cakes etc... So most of the time I do the groceryshopping to stay in budget, haha ;)

[@classylifeboutique]

+Marjolein M LOL- Thanks for stopping by my channel! :) We try to always have a grocery list either written out, texted, or typed into an app to avoid buying things we don't need. I hope you have a great week!

[@apfelprincess45]

+Marjolein M Yes never let husbands go to the supermarket alone, it's dangerous ;)

[@3for3get3]

Just wanted to share with you that I recently had a "reverse osmosis" water filter installed under my sink. It is connected to the ice maker in the fridge, too!! I bought it directly from APEC although they sell them on Amazon. I got the "better" one for about $300 as I recall. Your husband can probably install it, but mine couldn't so we had the expense of a plumber. It's so incredible!!! The water tastes so good. I have a tester that I got on Amazon for around $10. Checked my water before and after and the reading after went down to about .04 ppm??? I don't really remember now, but my ice cubes actually look completely clear of crud. It removes about 95% of flouride. I also got a shower head filter to remove flouride and chloride (but it removes only about 75%). You could really save a lot of money with one of these!

[@classylifeboutique]

Wow! That's awesome! Thank you for sharing! :) We used to have a great shower filter, but with our last move a couple of years ago, it didn't make it. We're renting the house we're in now, so I don't think they'd allow us to install a reverse osmosis filter. Maybe another landlord would, but our current "landlord company" is so bad that they'd probably charge us if we had this installed. We're not renewing our lease next year...we are so over all of their shenanigans. We've heard great things about reverse osmosis filters, and I think it's wonderful that yours is even connected to your ice maker. Yay! We will definitely keep this in mind for the future. Thanks so much for watching! :)

[@PopleBackyardFarm]

enjoyed this haul :)

[@classylifeboutique]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@annejustus6200]

Awesome family!🌹

[@kellyedes6318]

we shop at trader joes also. there frozen organic beans are really good. we love shopping there.

[@classylifeboutique]

+Kelly Edes Yes, I love Trader Joe's, too. I was bummed that the frozen green beans were recalled like a day after we bought them, though. Thankfully, Trader Joe's took them back and we got a refund. Thanks so much for watching! :)

[@terrigaines1812]

Haul begins at 3:21

[@KatieJoMikell]

I think it could be a lot cheaper if you had one of those big huge 5 gallon water jugs that you put on the machine I forget what it’s called. But you certainly can save from all that plastic. You should call and see what the price differences to get the 5 gallon jugs.

[@onesweetlife2469]

You have the greatest hauls!

[@charlottestevens9352]

Great video bit I can see how someone need 16 bags of popping corn or 12 bags or sweet corn a month

[@NJAlvarado612]

If she cooks a single meal with a side of corn each week for 1 month and her family of 7 eats through 3 bags of corn in 1 dinner then 12 makes sense. Or maybe she cooks 2 meals with a side of corn a week and her family eats 1.5 bags of corn for a meal. Either way, I could see how she makes use of it.

[@drivensaver7926]

Ok, so I like the popcorn in this one!!

[@classylifeboutique]

+Not Afraid of the Snow Popcorn is wonderful! I love it so much, as you can tell. I hope you have a great week, Lydia! :)

[@staceyhunt5342]

I agree 100% about the high quality of that brand of pasta!! Love those Costco tortilla's that you actually cook stove top as you need per person per meal! Where is Jewel stores located? You are a top narrator and description speaker for your hauls. : ) I think I would rather enjoy shopping together with my husband then stay at home. I need a breather and enjoy a cup of coffee and looking at the produce and meat, but even if it's spending $$ together, as long as there is a list in hand that both agreed upon, both should make the other welcomed and company desired.

[@melanie870]

Have you does a pantry / fridge/ freezer storage? I am just wondering how you are able to store all of this so things are visible and nothing goes to waste. Thanks!

[@classylifeboutique]

+Trinity Carpenter I haven't done a video like that yet, but I will if you're interested. :) I can put it on my schedule for later this month. Basically, though, because we don't buy a lot of junky snacks, the healthier foods tend to get eaten and not forgotten. We have very little waste in our home, and even leftovers don't last long with five kids. So because we don't buy a lot of sweet/salty snacks, when my kids are hungry and it's not mealtime, I tell them to grab an orange or a banana or tortilla chips. Thanks so much for stopping by my channel!

[@melanie870]

+The Sensible Mom I'd love to see it all put away and stored. I buy in bulk and lots of fresh produce but find it hard to store it all easily so I can recall everything I have !

[@healthy_andry5729]

Garofalo is a great brand in Italy too and said by an Italian (we are very picky on food) is a big thing.

[@madisonciowa3920]

I love that cherry juice, I buy it too. I absolutely adore Ezekiel bread. I just started using it a month ago. I prefer it for grilled sandwiches and toast. It reminds me of an old world Artisan bread. I hope you show your salsa recipe :-)

[@classylifeboutique]

+Madison C Iowa Good to know about he Ezekiel bread. Thanks for sharing! :) And, yes, I'll be filming the salsa recipe. Look for that in a video in the next week or so. I hope you have a great week!

[@MyCountryFavorites1]

I love the water bottle brushes.

[@classylifeboutique]

Thanks for watching! :)

[@1946pepper]

the recipe for Ezekiel bread is found in the Bible.. it is so delicious and more healthy than white bread or regular store bread..

[@classylifeboutique]

+Itazuke Dee We still have one loaf of the Ezekiel bread left in the freezer. :) Thanks for stopping by my channel and sharing.

[@LifeWithMrsB]

great haul, have just found your channel :) you look like you eat very well and i don't think that seems like a lot of money at all!

[@classylifeboutique]

+The Buchanan Family Thank you! :) We try to eat healthy and constantly look for ways/ideas to improve our eating habits.

[@tranellapenns8143]

That's right tell them, you take care of your family

[@michellegrimes6474]

I'm not super tech savvy, how hard was the modem to set up. I'm using Spectrum, and every little bit saved helps. I'm a single mom of two growing teens. Love your haul. Thanks for sharing.

[@hungrytimetv]

nice haul hope you have a great weekend

[@lilannegirl03]

Hi! This is the first video I've seen of yours, and I thought it was great! I also have 5 kids, so it was very interesting to see what your family buys/likes :-) our monthly budget is just over $700 and also includes our household items/cleaners/diapers and wipes, etc... (my youngest is 3 months :-) )...I imagine that amount will grow as my kids do, though ;-) anyway, thanks for sharing; I will definitely check out your other videos!

[@classylifeboutique]

+lilannegirl03 Thank you so much for your kind comment! A budget of $700 for a family of seven for groceries plus household items is fantastic. Way to go! We've definitely had to increase our grocery budget as our kids got older and their appetites got bigger. LOL :)

[@TheCotzi]

Is it not safe drinking tab water where you life?

[@lestercook3935]

TheCotzi no

[@riamalhi02]

TheCotzi Where I live (uk) it is

[@TheCotzi]

thanks because i drink it all the time

[@denisestathatos4147]

Do you have a chest freezer? If you cannot grow a garden, you can invest in Community Supported Agriculture!

[@hearsthewater]

Have you considered buying a Berkey water filter? I would imagine that with as many jugs of water that you buy each month, it would pay for itself pretty quickly. Just a thought that might help stretch those food dollars!

[@classylifeboutique]

+hearsthewater Thanks for the suggestion on the Berkey water filter. We hadn't heard of that one, and I'll look into it. :)

[@emorrell21]

$800-1000 sounds about right, in my opinion. We are a family of 5 and spend about the same, but we are in Canada where prices are much higher.

[@louisedillon2413]

What is the Ph level of the water you buy. I saw a video where a man said water should be between 6.5 and 8.5. Three brands that were in that range were Desanti, Big 8, and Aquafina. The others, according to him, are acidic and will cause all kinds of medical problems. My husband tested our tap water and it came back at 6.9. So I am now buying Desanti and Aquafina and using our tap water. Just thought I'd mention that so that you can test the water you bought. My husband used our pool tester and if you don't have one perhaps a pool company could test your brand of water.

[@classylifeboutique]

+Louise Dillon I don't know what the Ph level is of the water we buy but will look into it. Thanks for mentioning that and for stopping by my channel. :)

[@TessieDobey]

You shop like our family, hubby and I have eight boys and we shop HUGE!!!

[@classylifeboutique]

+Tessie Dobey Yes! Big families have to shop big! :) I grew up with lots of siblings, and my dad knew how to stock up and fill a freezer. Thanks so much for stopping by my channel!

[@apfelprincess45]

Just found your channel and enjoyed this very much, I'm subscribing :)

[@classylifeboutique]

+apfelprincess45 Thank you so much! I'm glad to have you here. :)

[@patriciaricotta8683]

They recalled the corn just case you have not heard

[@classylifeboutique]

[@Aleena8700]

love it clean n healthy

[@classylifeboutique]

+KobeGrace XOXO Thank you! :)

[@NoelsBIGfamilylife]

We love Meijer and costco and Aldi. We are a family of 8

[@evilpagan2342]

As a European, it's nuts to me to see how Americans shop. Where's the fresh food?

[@melanievm8895]

Evil Pagan I am peruvian, same thing jaja I guess that works forthem, thats what is cheap for them :( i Perú, healthy; fresh food is very cheap :3

[@neekneek0108]

Evil Pagan not all Americans shop like this, you could've worded it better

[@garbagemanmugshot]

You're judging all Americans on one haul? Please. The majority of Americans buy fresh food. Some don't, and that's ok. Judging someone else based on the food they buy is absolutely absurd.

[@anacatarinan6245]

Evil Pagan same here and huge quantities of stuff. not judging its just a huge difference. I hardly buy things in packages.

[@anacatarinan6245]

Mr. Earth americans are known for esting horrible food, most pre package products dont exist in my.country. Saying this many americans.eat healthy and I am not here to judge. I like to see what products exists in other countries :)

[@alicecompton1365]

How much did you spend on the Internet modem? :)

[@classylifeboutique]

+Alice Compton We paid $58.99 for the modem on Amazon. Here's a link to the exact one that we bought: amzn.to/1SThj3r Thanks for stopping by my channel! :)

[@countrycutie3263]

I need to start budgeting or something...I only have 2 people in my household and our groceries are almost $400 a month..but we go weekly and it's about $100 a week or so

[@hgib3]

What an interesting haul! We love the two different packs of pasta at Costco also. Costco had been carrying more and more organic items in the past year or so. They also sell the large bags of organic corn, just in case Trader Joe's is out. Thanks for sharing.

[@classylifeboutique]

+hgib3 Thanks for sharing! In our last big haul, my husband was able to find one of the big bags of organic corn. :) We haven't tried it yet because we've been using up the Trader Joe's corn, but we will be soon. Thanks so much for stopping by my channel! :)

[@steelersgirl9930]

I would looked into Poland Spring water delivery it's cheaper and more convenient .

[@classylifeboutique]

+Carrie Pekar Thanks for the suggestion. I looked into it tonight, and Poland Spring water doesn't service our area, but Ice Mountain does. Unfortunately, it would end up costing us more if we had the Ice Mountain delivered based on the rates on the website. It's cheaper to buy the gallons at Sam's Club for now. Thanks so much for stopping by my channel. :)

[@jannikaschnell651]

What do you do with the water "bottles" when they're empty? Do you just throw them away? 0.0

[@classylifeboutique]

+Jannika Schnell We recycle every single water bottle. We recycle a lot in our home. Thanks for watching. :)

[@jannikaschnell651]

That's great :) How do you recycle them, I can't really imagine how to do that

[@classylifeboutique]

We put them in our huge recycling can, and every single week, we put that can outside so that it can be picked up with our garbage. There's one truck that comes to pick up our garbage every week, and another truck comes to pick up everyone's recycling can. Our city has a great recycling program. :)

[@jannikaschnell651]

That's really great!

[@Tightanium]

Wait.. what do you eat for dinner then? I didn't see any meat other than that breaded chicken.. all the other stuff was sides..

[@classylifeboutique]

Thanks for visiting my channel! While we eat meat here and there, we don't eat it at every meal or even on a daily basis, and we don't typically keep a big stock of it in our freezer. To see some of our meals, you can take a peek at some of my "What's for dinner?" videos. :)

[@missandra1720]

The Sensible Mom

[@riamalhi02]

FilthyTramp ... you do realise there is something called being vegetarian

[@CaptchaNeon]

+Ria Malhi Vegetarians don't eat chicken nor do they eat products that come from animal products, it's obvious they aren't full on organic people.

[@ANGELSLVME]

How often do u need to shop with 7 people in the house

[@classylifeboutique]

+Trina Jordan We shop at least once a week (sometimes we may make an extra trip if we run out of something that we need or forgot an ingredient or something like that), but we don't always spend the same amount of money every time we shop. For example, if we spend $250 on groceries one week, we may only spend $150 on groceries the next week. Thanks for stopping by my channel. :)

[@ANGELSLVME]

+The Sensible Mom ok thanks

[@labansatanongen]

Wow! Food in the US is so inexpensive.

[@classylifeboutique]

+Aileen May K Organic food is more expensive and food, in general, is a bit more expensive in the Chicagoland area where I live. Thanks for watching. :)

[@hazelwatts544]

do eat mostly or all organic

[@classylifeboutique]

+hazel watts We try to eat as much organic food as we can afford, but we don't eat all organic. Since we don't eat a lot of meat, we have more room in our budget to eat more organic foods. Thanks so much for stopping by my channel! :)

[@candi0826]

Potato tacos are soooo good

[@vickyskye8492]

i've never seen so much popcorn and whipped cream :P where do u store all that water? Might save by getting a brita filter or.. maybe a 5gal delivery service

[@TheCJtheCregg]

Sorry, I may have missed you mentioning it, but do you not have a water supply at your house ? I was curious as to why you buy bottled water. :)

[@classylifeboutique]

+TheCJtheCregg We live in an area with not-so-great water (We've literally found one brand of dishwasher tabs that doesn't allow the water to leave terrible streaks on our dishes). It's not the greatest water, so we don't drink it. Though, I do use it to cook with, like I'll use it to boil water for pasta. However, for soups and things like that, we still use bottled water. Also, we're trying to avoid fluoride as much as we can (avoiding it 100% is impossible), and since it's added right into the tap water, we prefer to drink bottled water instead. Thanks for visiting my channel! :)

[@TheCJtheCregg]

+The Sensible Mom Oh that totally makes sense then!

[@sharlenehayden2412]

+The Sensible Mom Not sure of the cost difference, but we used to go through bottled water like no one's business (we live in a bad water area as well) and we now use a water cooler and water delivery service. We love it and even if it was a little pricier, it's worth it not for me to have to lug gallons and gallons of water around (we lived in a second story apartment at the time). I'd also think it's a little "greener" since the 5 gallon bottles are just sanitized and reused. If you don't want to spend the money for the delivery service, I'm pretty sure there are a lot of places where you can refill your own 5 gallon jugs for like $.25 a gallon.

[@mylifeasjazmin4280]

+The Sensible Mom Thanks for answering my comment I ❤️ all your videos

[@achinikewinnie3097]

you guys love trader Joe's

[@FurbyGender]

Do you not have Aldi? They are the same company as Trader Joe's with the exception that their prices are a fraction of a cost compared to Traders. We got an overfilled cart for $100 Full Of everything you can imagine including high quality meats.

[@classylifeboutique]

Our local Aldi isn't the best, and from what I've read, there are some Aldi locations that are great and some that aren't. I'm not happy with ours. I've seen other people's Aldi hauls and seen organic products that our Aldi doesn't carry. Produce is also an issue at Aldi in our area. We give Aldi a try from time to time to see if things have changed, but the last time we visited one about a month or two ago, we left feeling like we weren't going to go back for a while again. Thanks so much for watching! I hope you have a great weekend! :)

[@FurbyGender]

The Sensible Mom Wow. Have you ever called corporate and just ask them to go in that particular store and see if it was up to their standards? I had to do that once with an Aldi in a different state. By the time I came back 3 months later, everything had changed and it was incredible.

[@FurbyGender]

Hope you and yours have a great 4th of July, be safe out there. 😇

[@Tightanium]

Have a great 4th of July guys!! It's my birthday in the 4th of July too :) So happy.

I was asleep n it was in the middle of the night and my phone was in the shelf and I woke up with my phone in the ground and this video playing..... I was creeped out

[@mummykc8256]

Can you not drink tap water where you are? Can you cook with it or do you use the bottled water for cooking also?

[@apfelprincess45]

+Mummykc We always buy bottled water with our groceries too. Because although we can drink the water here in Australia, where we are it's loaded with chlorine and doesn't taste very nice, although its ok if it's boiled for a cup of tea or something. So we buy 24x600ml bottles in a pack every two weeks.

[@mummykc8256]

+apfelprincess45 ah ok then that makes sense. I'm in Australia too and our water here is fine but I guess that would totally depend on where you are situated :)

[@HaLLiEB85]

I can't imagine buying 36 gallons of water when it's free out the tap

[@lestercook3935]

Mummykc no

[@itsjustmesophie]

Can i ask why you bought so much water? Can't you just drink from the tap?

[@classylifeboutique]

+Sophie Foster Thanks for stopping by my channel. I get a lot of questions about the water we buy. :) But basically, we live in an area that doesn't have great tap water. It's even problematic when it comes to cleaning our dishes with it. We've literally found one brand of dishwasher tabs that doesn't allow the water to leave terrible streaks on our dishes. Though, I do use it to cook with, like I'll use it to boil water for pasta. However, for soups and things like that, we still use bottled water. Also, we're trying to avoid fluoride as much as we can (avoiding it 100% is impossible), and since it's added right into the tap water, we prefer to drink bottled water instead. We are, however, looking into a water filtration system that removes a lot of the fluoride. We're hoping to possibly buy that system over the summer. :)

[@elliotbracken6286]

How big is your freezer?!?

[@classylifeboutique]

+Emily Wheeler We have a regular refrigerator with a freezer. We don't have an extra freezer or anything out of the ordinary to store our food in. I'm planning on doing a fridge/freezer/pantry tour later this month to share. Thanks so much for stopping by my channel! :)

[@elliotbracken6286]

+The Sensible Mom you must have a big American one though - I'm in the uk so our freezer is tiny! I'm very jealous!

[@HaLLiEB85]

+Emily Wheeler my family has a bigger freezer . I think it's 30 cu ft or something like that. Our old one was 20. But it's just 4 of us adults, no kids at all. My brother and I are 30 and 35. I'm disabled from a back injury and he has a brain injury so no getting rid of us

[@Little_Bird_Chihuahuas]

Why do you buy bottled water? I guess I don't get it.

[@Cristina-lo4ip]

you don't drink milk but eat cheese?

[@lestercook3935]

Seems like you should buy the water in the 5 gallon bottles, better for the environment, or just get a filtration system for your home, which is even better!

[@patriciaorsborn7165]

And obviously I don't know where you live, since this is the first time I've seen a video of yours (enjoyed it btw!) but it looks like California based on the names of your stores, so I am just curious if you've ever tried vegetable or container gardening, based on the outdoor space you have access to, seems like it would be a healthy, cost efficient, and educational thing to do for your family.

Pantry tour please :)

but water comes out of the tap for free?

[@classylifeboutique]

+sophie steele No, our tap water is definitely not free. We pay a water bill every month. Thanks for stopping by my channel.

[@tophiexsteele]

+The Sensible Mom well ya, but my point was it would be much cheaper to drink tap water or buy a filter for the tap. that way you save money and don't contribute to the waste of plastic water bottles

[@classylifeboutique]

+sophie steele We prefer not to drink the tap water because it's fluoridated, and it's got other issues where I live. Also, typical filters for the tap don't remove fluoride. We are looking into getting a water filtration system that removes most fluoride this summer, though. And we recycle both the water bottles and the cardboard boxes that they come in. Thanks for your input.

[@classylifeboutique]

+Side Ofit Thank you! I think I could easily go vegan, but the rest of my family is not ready for that lifestyle yet. Thanks for stopping by my channel. :)

Man we have 9 kids in our house and we don't even do that and we are a family of 12 who are carnivores 😂😂

[@HaLLiEB85]

Random question , do you have Native American in you ? You have great cheekbones

[@classylifeboutique]

Thank you! :) I don't have any Native American in me that I know of. I'm half-Mexican and white. My dad is Mexican and my mom is white. Interestingly, I think my cheekbones came from my mom's side of the family because I have a cousin on that side who also has high cheekbones. It's nice to be told that I have high cheekbones these days. LOL - Because I grew up being told that I had "big cheeks" which doesn't sound as nice.

[@HaLLiEB85]

+The Sensible Mom lol I know the cheek feeling . I'm 30 and stuck with baby face . The cheeks have been there my entire life 😂

[@RL-xm5bz]

Im hungre

[@classylifeboutique]

+Freja B Thanks for stopping by my channel! :)

[@FrejaBaek]

+The Sensible Mom i love it all THE grocery haul thingy im always hungry after

[@hannahvolck]

great haul! love watching! could really do without the water though, very wasteful with the amount of plastic used. I have a brita water filter and it is wonderful. I highly recommend it. Even tap water is okay! Thanks for sharing! :)

[@classylifeboutique]

+hannahvolck Thanks so much for your kind comments. :) We've used a Brita water filter in the past but don't anymore because it doesn't filter out fluoride, which is what we're trying to consume less of since it's added to our local tap water. We are planning on investing in a water filtration system over the summer, and I'll share more about that when we do. And we do recycle the plastic water jugs and the cases that they come in. :)

[@candicecapps5542]

I liked the grocery hauls, but maybe next time you can go faster, it got a little boring, because you go into full detail on each product

[@classylifeboutique]

+Candice Capps Thanks for the critique. I will try to go a little faster next time. :)

[@ihama99]

+The Sensible Mom Please be yourself when filming. You are not slow at all just very detailed. Keep it up

[@KIM-kp9tq]

+The Sensible Mom no I like how detailed you are about each product ☺️ I have a family of 6, and our groceries look very similar but UK style. I love that you had so many organic lovely products

[@mylifeasjazmin4280]

Is your family organic

[@classylifeboutique]

+My Life As Jazmin Thanks for your question. We do try to eat as much organic food as our budget allows, but we don't buy everything organic. We're okay if it's GMO-free, or if it's something like a pineapple or avocados, we don't necessarily feel that we need to buy organic versions of those foods all the time. Since we don't eat a lot of meat (which can be expensive), we tend to put the money that would've been going to that towards good quality organic foods when as much as we can. Thanks so much for stopping by my channel. :)

[@adventureofalifetime4162]

theCotzi, I was just going to ask that #water

[@jackiebolden1093]

Why you don't eat much meat.
