Once-a-Month GROCERY HAUL for Our LARGE FAMILY (July)

Can we all take a moment to tell Janice how awesome she is!!! She is a grocery haul beast!

Aww, Natalie, thank you for being so sweet! :)

[@maryhekker4166]

Sweet Janice, how I enjoy seeing all your videos as I’m a disabled widow in her mid 60’s who lives vicariously through your type of lifestyle. You’re a tremendous blessing and inspiration to this community.

[@joylovingyeshua5861]

I agree!

[@yli111]

You probably already considered this, but I'd like to mention that I haven't had to buy toilet paper in years. I have a cheap and easy-to-install bidet fixture attached to my toilet. You can still use the toilet in the normal way, even if you don't turn on the bidet. My bottom gets washed every time I use the bathroom, so I am always fresh as a daisy. I have a dedicated stash of hand towels for drying afterwards. If I had a big family like yours, I would have color coded towels on a personal hook for each person old enough to understand how to use it. And a dedicated hamper for these for laundering purposes. I love your channel.

[@godsprecious6884]

Those gift cards are a BLESSING 😊

[@wendystuthers8706]

Wished we had all those😢 stores to choose from. Our prices would be different but i would think they would be better. We have a wal mart but its not a supper store. They do have food and clothingbut it is small. They allso have a pharmacy.I do include there flyer when checking to see where I can find what I need for less.😊

[@samijanekasper8162]

Yummy! I love siete chips!! Only chips i eat. I love their tortillas and hard taco shells too!

[@Susanjoc]

New here. I find you and your family such an encouragement to me. I’m a 70 yo with just my hubby and myself. We stock up as much as we can on sales.Just recently, been purchasing grass fed beef and organic fruits and veggies. As a Christian, it’s so good in this time to see a family like yours. You’re truly a Proverbs 31 lady. God bless you!

@susanjoc I’m glad to see I’m not the oldest who is humbly learning great skills from Janice. So happy to see you here. ❤❤❤

[@Susanjoc]

@@maryhekker4166 I’m from Pa. was disabled at 55 so know what you’re up against. Where are you from?

[@maryhekker4166]

@susanjoc I’m from Grand Rapids, Michigan although when I got married my late spouse moved me out to the country. I feel like ZsaZsa Gabor on Green Acres, but slowly getting used to it. I’m dealing with a litany of issues but mostly Congestive heart failure and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, although never smoked. I’ve had several set backs requiring hospitalization but now under a great team of doctors. Continued therapy to deal with depression and loss of identity as I once was a Registered Nurse who worked in variety of ICU.

[@VirleyMatlock-og3ed]

You remind me of myself. I to shopped this way for my family when they were young. They are now grandparents. Back then money was tight and every penny counted. I am now in my 80!so. Bless you and may our Lord guide you in every way.

[@crisbush2034]

Looks like a great haul! Be careful of the different toilet paper brands... not all are created equal, and you may end up using more than buying the more expensive brand. We love the Sam's Club brand

[@donnamedley4712]

You are doing God's work. I'm still in the hospital. They are finally getting answers as to what's going help me. I finally went to Nashville. It took the doctor one hour to figure out what's wrong with me. The ball is rolling in the right direction. Prayers work😊😊😊😊. Love and prayers to all of you. All the people who watch this channel.

But until then I will continue to glean from your knowledge on homesteading. Thank you and your family for sharing a part of your lives with the rest of us. ❤

[@annettep28]

Those friends are indeed great and you get helped double as well, since you can work on the other project. You are a very good planer!

[@JustTheJesters]

Dear *Janice* , Walmart price matches, so if you’re seeing cheaper at aldis ( and I believe ANY grocery store), show them the paper (or your phone) . This would, in turn,allow you to get all you need (from these type of grocery stores) in one place AND save gas from skipping a stop that you’d usually make to get those deals at another store that you could just price match while you’re still at Walmart 😊 I hope this is of some help to you and the family. Every penny counts so when the thought popped up, I felt I should share it JUST in case ❤ AND just incase none of that is helpful 😅 , I’ll still make this comment useful and say HELLO 👋 from Maryland. I just turned 30 2 months ago and imma momma of 5 kiddos (10, 8, 6, 2, 1) and pregnant with our 6th ! ❤😊 We have 5 acres (my first time living my life dreaming of owning any acreage at all, let alone enough for a small farm!) we’re slowly growing it up and eventually I aim to self sustain for AT LEAST half of the year. A fox just took out 6 of our 8 laying hens AND our rooster. So I have to start all over with our layers 😢 and that’s a huge hit

[@blueamenaa749]

Beautiful haul. You are so organized. God bless you all.❤❤❤

[@kelliejackson1191]

It's ok to deviate from the list every once in a while. I enjoy watching your hauls. Your explanation about the reason why you purchase a certain item all makes perfect sense.

I love your page I’m a young mom of 2 we are a family of 4 & I have been trying to budget so much because inflation has just been doing it’s thing these videos are just so soothing to see. I come from a large family and it’s tough for everyone out here even the working class. Rents high, bills keep piling up and groceries are getting higher it’s crazy out here.

I was talking my best friend’s ear off about y’all and all the things you do to be self sufficient. And one of my endless questions popped in my head. Have y’all ever thought about making your own cheese, feta from the goats and mozzarella from the cow?

[@ozarkfamilyhomestead]

Oh Brooke, I know I NEED to bite the bullet and make cheese, but I'm so intimidated by it! I felt the same way about the pressure canner. Sarah and I finally built up the nerve to tackle pressure canning and I know we will try making cheese at some point too. Just give me time to work out all my anxieties over it! 😉

[@terrytully1051]

Hi, Janice. I really like when you share your grocery hauls. I enjoy seeing what you buy and what you pay. It's so interesting. Yesterday, my husband and I went to Walmart to do some grocery shopping. There's just the 2 of us as our 3 children are in their own homes. We spent $122.95. I live in Illinois ... 30 miles from Chicago, so you have to figure that into how much things cost.But a few examples are: Land O Lakes butter (4sticks)-4.98/ Tums-4.88/1/2 gal milk-3.18/1 pkg hamburger buns-2.68/ 5lb bag clementines-4.98 ... just a sampling, taxed @ 8.75%. Gasoline was 4.15 gal of which .50 is taxes. We get our meat from Jewel which is pricey but there's just the 2 of us. I don't do price comparisons and I should. Living here in Ill is costly. I envy your shopping skills and your prices. Thank you so much for showing me a better way. Toni

[@ozarkfamilyhomestead]

Oh Toni, I know our locations are going to cause our prices to differ, but I still cringed at your cost! I saw butter at Aldi for $3.19 a pound and the hamburger buns were $1.29 a package. I admit to not being knowledgeable on milk prices since I don't buy that anymore now that we have Daisy to provide us milk! 😉 Maybe you can console yourself with the fact that your cost of living may be higher than ours, but salaries are probably also proportionally higher as well. Hopefully, it all works out in the end! 💕

[@staceygallagher4721]

Hey beautiful lady ❤️ I'm so happy you are going to get the electricity sorted out, I'm positive you will make your budget ❤❤❤❤

Really?

[@donnarobertson252]

@@pennynickels5216 Yes. You can't write all your groceries. Only the ones you use for the videos. I did ask someone who has a large family on you tube if she can write her groceries. She said she asked and they said no, but could do so only on food she uses recipes for her channel.

I love watching your grocery hauls. I stock up on taco shells and some flour tortillas at Dollar Tree. Most stores here are pushing $3 for a box of shells, so I can't beat that $1.25 at Dollar Tree. I stopped buying shredded cheese from Walmart because the quality and flavor has gotten really bad like a lot of things have since the pandemic. I now but the big bags at Sam's when I can the chance. If I'm not near a sam's I buy a name brand like Kraft or Krogers brand isn't bad.

Hi Janice! It's Andrea from Croatia. You said you get excited when when you get good deals. I get excited when you have a new video on, they are very interesting and wish you could make more but with your large family and homestead not possible. Shopping here in Croatia is entirely different than in the states. Half of the items I love not available, like bacon, anything pumpkin especially creamer, cranberries they do not have them here.Also strawberries and blackberries very hard to come by. So long for now Have a great weekend.

[@wendybegley5542]

I find your videos encouraging. I have started to look at our local grocery stores for sales on loss leaders. They are few and far between.

Hoping you and your Ozark family are having a grand morning! Another successful grocery haul was calculated and accomplished by you Janice. Totally off-subject, but wondering how much Shawn contributes to your homeschool teaching plan. Another thought, were your children home-birthed or did you have to race to the big city? Your family and lifestyle have captured my heart which leads me to want to learn more. ♥️♥️

[@ozarkfamilyhomestead]

Hi Eileen - always glad to see your name in the comments! Shawn pretty much leaves all the decision-making for our homeschooling up to me. I will sometimes ask him for input, but I pretty much handle all of it. Also, I feel like I've had just about every kind of birth there is! I've had medicated hospital births, hospital births without pain meds, homebirths, and even a couple c-sections. I figure, one of these days, there will be a video about all the different birth stories for the children. They're definitely all unique! 😉

[@angeliabarkley3134]

Wow, you are such a awesome shopper, I get excited to see grocery ads too, when my boys were little that's how they learned their numbers and alphabet by reading and looking at the grocery ads.I am really interested in your sausage seasoning recipe, Blessings from Hickory,NC, until next time

Hi Janice! You are such a sweet person and really are an inspiration to everyone trying to make ends meet with the rising grocery prices. I shop at different stores also to take advantage of sales. They call this cherry picking. It’s the best way to save money. Btw I don’t understand 10Box. Why do they advertise a sale item and then add 10%? It doesn’t make sense to me. Why not just advertise the price with the additional 10%? It’s like false advertising.
