[@melsimcoe4067]

I stopped drinking anything with caffeine in about 17 years ago and i feel so much beter for it. I also had tons of cellulite and since i stopped the caffeine i have barely any and im 46, so that feels good. I loved your tips xx

[@loveiseverything2736]

I learned English at Bournemouth 15 years ago. I was wondering how much Bournemouth has changed these days and I wanted to go, so I'm glad I found your KZbin. 🎉🎉🎉 Please continue to make good videos!! from Korea.❤❤

[@Glenfiner]

Hi Brogan, very relaxing watching you shop 😂 just for info that electric clothes dryer compared to a tumble dryer . Airer 16p an hour tumble dryer 67p an hour but the airer takes longer. The airer is a lot cheaper to run.

[@lynnescaddan8919]

Thanq for the video What a massive B&M, I'm EXTREMELY happy that your taking us around, I couldn't manage that, so thanks.

[@darrenbird]

Hi, from someone who works in b&m, if you don't have a pound for the trolly, use the back of a house key or go into the store and take a key from a tin of corned beef and that will work if you giggle it about a bit, the lock will pop off and your trolly will be free :)

[@brogantatexo]

I tried the back of the key, didn’t work!! X

[@emmaclarke8083]

Watching the vlog, I have a heated airer which is great, and you can leave it on all day. they are about 10p as hour to run where as a tumble dryer is about 85p per hour

[@BethanyDimond]

Was completely influenced and had to go to my nearest B&M so see if they had any crystal/diamond art in…came out with the unicorn set and 3 mini Disney Princess ones (which you’d absolutely love if you haven’t seen them yet!)

[@bethsnape]

Watching as I make my friendships bracelets for The Eras Tour, it’s like being on FaceTime 🩷

[@brogantatexo]

I love that!! 🥹

[@paulastapleton7493]

Omg I was here on Tuesday whilst on holiday, we popped to aldi & poundland for essentials & our schedule just didn't allow time to pop into b&m ,I told my husband that I'd seen your vlog & we would need a few hours in there so next year when we visit I'm definitely going!! I bought a lovely dress in poundland in black they also had it in a cream colour & I thought to myself that is a brogan dress .I was so impressed with that retail park ,the charity shop was the best I'd been in & the lady behind the till was so so lovely .I absolutely love dorset ,we stayed in wimborne this time .I fell in love with swanage ❤

[@hotpinkfairysparkle]

I’ve missed shopping trip hails like that. Love that big store. And yes tuna and salad cream is 10/10!!!

[@christinek5562]

Loved this video. Thanks for sharing.

[@Ccnewman17]

My daughter loves the diamond beads. She finished a massive one that says friends at the bottom (in the friends logo font) and it’s all horror (Jason, pennywise, chucky etc) it’s hysterical. She framing it for her new apartment. But there are so many cool ones out there. She will sit for hours and work on them. She said they’re therapeutic as well.

[@nanabear85]

Chrystal art is so much fun and very therapeutic, but you need to go back to B n Ms because you need storage boxes to keep the Chrystals in. They sell little draw storage boxes. I use one for my Chrystals.

[@MISSLEONAJB]

Hey Sweetie 🤗 I love B&M, I’d need a trolly like you. I love the idea of the diamond art - I think that’d be great to have there for moments of anxiety / stress. Thanks for taking us along, you got some great treats from there 🫣 Take care 🩷 xxx

[@user-ff6lg6cd3j]

The breeze bit absolutely killed me off!!! You are sooo funny and relatable. Love watching you!!!

[@precioustaylor1666]

Your always so positive your videos are lovely ☺️☺️ xx

[@jessyclayfield8421]

Loved having a mooch with you! I recently have cut out dairy from my diet and it helped sooo much. Hope it gets better soon❤

[@jackieaudus9829]

Blimey I thought the B&M was large at Drakehouse Sheffield… but that B&M is Mahoooosive Brogan!! My kinda day out too !!! (Tomorrow in fact) thanks for sharing 😊

[@sarahskillin8436]

Wow how awesome is b and m! We have nothing like that! I just bought my son the gymnastics Barbie for his 5th birthday. He loves it 🤸

[@mercedesmorris6386]

The hidden Mickey in Bonnies bowl! 😍😍

[@lilyellens]

Fellow tummy trouble girlie here and caffeine is deffo a sensitivity for me. I can manage a normal coffee in the morning if I'm eating but otherwise it's decaf all the way!

[@emelisema]

Yasss! Love these videos! I wanna see every single thing in every single aisle 😅😂 they can’t be thorough enough lol

[@brogantatexo]

Hahaha!! Glad you like them 😀

[@debbiegleeson155]

We switched to decaff tea and coffee years ago and i can't tell the difference, will be interesting to see if it helps with your tummy.

[@karenlavis8661]

Good morning Brogan, just catching up. When you said Pop Socks, I think of tights that come up to the knee 😊 love B & M but yikes thats a big store. Tidy too.

[@brendaellender4618]

Yes caffeine upsets me too I have felt much better since changing to caffeine free drinks .good luck with it .X

[@brendaellender4618]

Ps love your blogs .thank you X

[@ThisBlondeLife]

Im so jealous of all your penguin bars! I love them! I used to be able to find them in the dollar tree here in the US but now its so hard to come across them anywhere!

[@kj_x1317]

Love the Aussie Cadbury stuff in b&m, I just with they had all the different freddos!

[@donnap8889]

Loved the video BM shopping trip is always brilliant x

[@nina-annakatink9627]

Wow wish we had such a big B&Ms. Yes I found that caffeine was affecting my tummy too, been on decaf for years now, hope it helps you too xx

[@jennifersherwood1901]

The Heated Airers are ALOT cheaper to run than a Tumble Dryer. Only ‘6p’ on hour . I have a 3 shelf one . In the winter I COULD NOT do without it to get my Clothes dried . It was a huge B&M . I didn’t even know it was there. When my daughter lived in Winton ( 3 years ago when she was at Uni) she didn’t mention it was there. When you use your steamer , do you use a tall metal stand to hang the clothes on to steam them . If not how do you steam your clothes . I have a steam and don’t use it as I haven’t got a stand for it and can’t find one to use with it either . Have a nice week . X

[@HaleyHancocks]

Hi Brogan, just love watching your vlogs, you have such positive vibes ❤ and someone who just loves to shop What us ladies do best😊. Cannot wait to see your countdown vlogs to your world cruise and wedding.....keep doing what your doing.

[@brogantatexo]

Thank you!! Xx

[@jennieward1]

I stopped having caffeine 18 months ago, after being a caffeine addict. My tummy is so much better, no headaches, sleep better & less anxiety and no slumps in energy xx

[@brogantatexo]

That’s interesting to know, thanks for sharing!! Xx

[@jenx89]

Those coconut lion bars are incredible. Never heard of those other cadbury bars either, wild! X

[@suebowie9284]

Loved this Brogan, just reminded me how much my daughter and possibly daughter in law loved Diamond art! Great stocking fillers x

[@brogantatexo]

Awww yes!! X

[@carolinedakin9390]

Hi Brogan I'm 46 and feel exactly the same as you about September and back to school stationery 😊 I have 3 boys and my 4yr old starts school this year so I'm really enjoying getting all his stuff along with you 7yr old. 😊xx

[@melsimcoe4067]

I love B&M I go regularly for a shop our store in Bideford is small but the barnstaple one is bigger x

[@nanabear85]

Thanks for taking us shopping only thing missing was coffee and cake😊

[@julie5372]

Hi brogan. A great vlog, with the decaffeinated tea and coffee be aware you may experience headaches as your body adjusts.😊

[@abi_993]

Love this b&m!!

[@bethanjade6585]

I have a nespresso coffee machine as I had a tassimo before and found the options really limited and expensive. Nespresso tastes most like coffee shop coffee and I love making Starbucks dupes! If you go into a nespresso shop you can try lots of flavours to see if you like it before you buy

[@aimeebansil5995]

Loved this vlog and love a B&M trip💖 do you have a link for your tripod that you take away on trips with you please?🙏🏻 Looking for one for an upcoming trip to Thailand for my boyfriends 30th! Xx

[@zachknopes7603]

I am experiencing as a 29yo that caffeine has been really affecting me! I agree! Gives me the feeling of anxious tummy, I've had to cup back!

[@brogantatexo]

Ahh sucks doesn’t it! I’m doing the same!

[@Rosie4511]

🥰🌟💕 I love B&M…go in for one or two things and come out with about twenty🤣🙈

[@AprilSlocombe]

Very impressive B&M haul. A new B&M opened near me in North London in December last year (it is next to an Aldi that opened the month before). Items I bought from that B&M over the 3 times I have visited so far include a small Christmas tree, mini baubles, Colour Catchers, a collapsible washing basket, Lucky Charms cereal (in a green box), an insulated lunch bag and some silicone ice cube trays. Further to some of the things you showed and bought, I call those socks pop socks. 30 years ago, I had a Hollywood Hair Barbie doll that my dad bought me when I was going on holiday to America with him and a lady who looked after my brother and me when we were children. I tried something similar to diamond art once, but I called it pixel art. I attempted to make a pixel art dolphin scene once, but I didn’t complete it because I might have lost some pixel bits I needed to finish the scene.

[@brogantatexo]

Amazing!! Glad I’m not the only one calling the. pop socks haha! Xx

[@catherineholmes3839]

I love B&M! We have a big one like this where i live in Leeds, no upstairs though! X

[@tracypatil8841]

Thanks Brogan. Great Vlog. Love a bit of home bits. Very interested in the coffee aroma. They used to sell a lot of that stuff in the U.S. seems we haven't got on the band wagon yet. So I'll look out for that. Also love the glitter art, might make a great stocking stuffer/Secret Santa if it's not too expensive. ❤😘

[@jessfield8225]

Just made my coffee and lunch to watch this on my lunch break. Cosy escapism as always! xx

[@olivia94tennis]

We have a Nespresso coffee machine and love it. It’s lasted over 11 years! You can buy Starbucks and costa pods for it as well as the Nespresso brands. Separate milk frother makes a difference as well. This is my local B&M so I’m gonna head down for some of those snacks 😂

[@MattandTomTravels]

Who were you kidding when you thought a basket would be big enough 🤣🤣🤣🤣 x

[@leannehirst4402]

Not much makes me happier than finishing work, going to pub for me tea then going home bargains and b&m

[@sophiawitkowski1082]

Love a good b and m haul you got some great things makes me need too go shopping now lol thanks for sharing xx

[@brogantatexo]

Thanks for watching Sophia!! Xx

[@SamW230]

Love a trip to B&M! Great video as always ❤

[@michellefagnou729]

Did you get a new camera!? The quality is absolutely insane in this!!! Love these videos!!!

[@alexharvey9063]

Everyone loves a good mooch! Do what makes you happy.

[@brogantatexo]

😀

[@rachelwayper2518]

That b and m is heaven 😍 such a fun day out going to B and M! We have a dolce gusto as we don’t drink coffee so their range of hot chocolate is so much better than other machines.

[@dunegus]

I kinda of like the idea of calling it a celebration. The sign could read something like Welcome to Benji & Brogan celebration Thank you for celebrating with us.

[@TheLondonWhisperer]

Wow amazingly huge! I took a food/drink intolerance test and it’s helped my tummy problems. You can get intolerant to ingredients at any stage of life! I’m thinking maybe the Pepsi is starting to disagree? It has got so much sweetener and other nasties in it (no shade btw) x

[@brogantatexo]

Yeah it’s a possibility!! We drink a lot but not every day, but I’m not sure anymore xx

[@sharongadegast64]

😂😂 Super Noodles are one of my guilty pleasures also 🤣🤣

[@sarafoster388]

A little tip for tea stains - soak the item in hot water with a little bit of Vanish Oxy Action powder (or generic equivalent) for an hour or so. No scrubbing, no muss, no fuss! I use it for my teapot, which comes up like new. Rinse in cold water, and it doesn't leave any taste 😊

[@brogantatexo]

Thanks so much!!

[@jpckmt]

My Daughter just shouted down to me you had uploaded! My kids know me so well! 😂 Was hoping it was the next Florida announcement!!! 🏰 But love B&M too! 😂

[@brogantatexo]

That’s coming SOON 😀

[@jpckmt]

​@@brogantatexocan't wait! Need your planning inspo! Am just watching your old pack with me's!

[@debbiegleeson155]

I have literally just been to our B&M and they are putting the Christmas decorations out on August 12th 😱

[@patdavidson5161]

Just to let you know there’s been a lot of bad reviews of the Denta Sticks, they’re the areated ones, some dogs have had to be operated on as they get stuck in their stomachs as they’re not very digestible. Just a heads up. 🤗🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@NonStopParis]

If you want to upgrade your coffee machine definitely look into the Sage Barista range. They are 👌🏼

[@karenbateson8852]

Just a suggestion,pepsi max-cola will have caffiene in it too....but you can get caffiene free versions of also..... I love a good mooch around B+M xxu

[@nicolechapman6440]

OMG I love diamond art. Good deals to be had on Amazon and Temu. Just made some bookmarks this past weekend.

[@brogantatexo]

So good isn’t it?! Ooh thanks! 😀

[@charlottemcquaide2949]

Ahhh I loved this! ❤

[@brogantatexo]

Thanks Charlotte!! X

[@stephaniebraidwood9205]

Look forward to watching this later Love b and m x😊

[@brogantatexo]

Thanks Stephanie! Xx

[@jolilly4264]

Sainsburys had the white digestives on special Last week I bought some! Delish!

[@brogantatexo]

Ooh thanks!

[@shereebee1780]

Caffeine hurts my stomach, i have decaf tea and coffee which helps but i still have to limit the amount i drink. I also love the chai latte powder, in the pink can from Sainsbury's x

[@bronniepaterson4694]

Oh wow….I love B&M…..they sell my favourite biscuits. There called Abernathy and the Scottish. I have terrible trouble with most biscuits they make me ill. But I can eat them no problem. They sell out SO fast!!! I use pop socks with my summer slip on shoes. Wow I’m getting some Barbie stuff for my granddaughter,and something for grandson’s… Love this place…but I would spend a fortune..I do in ours!! 👍🇬🇧

[@samwhyman1674]

We live in Bath & considering a visit to this store next week now! 🙈

[@kayleighcummings374]

Would love more videos like this ❤x 😊

[@lynnescaddan8919]

Apparently if you put a candle in freezer ova night it burns longer ~ I saw that on a u tube hack.

[@anasky00]

What a nice Shop! I wish we had it! 🤣

[@debbiegleeson155]

Don't you think that Penguins and other chocolate bars are getting smaller and smaller lol 😂

[@karenjoannawarwick]

That’s a huge B&M my town has 2 of them , my only gripe is that they don’t do online shopping, I have mobility issues due to disability, so I don’t get around very much. I do my shopping all online too make it easier for me . Great Blog I enjoy your content very much. Much love to you 💖😘

[@brogantatexo]

That’s a shame! I have some friends that use the Cherry’s app, have you tried that? Xx

[@bettyboothroyd1]

Cherryz went out of business, unfortunately! Home Bargains sell some stuff online, as do Wilkos and The Range, and they’re all fairly similar to B&M

[@lenamccarthy3260]

Coconut lion bars are elite!!! 😋

[@AlisonInWonderlandUK]

I too get upset tum with caffeine, to the point of proper cramps/sweats. I swapped to caffeine free Pepsi max, tea and coffee and things settled. That Nana chew bar was rank, I don't like artificial banana flavour and that proved why lol.

[@emf5811]

Hey Brogan! Pepsi max contains caffeine too so could be irritating your stomach! I like PG tips decaf but you can taste the difference x

[@lesleyblaikie7031]

Have a Nespresso coffee machine which froths milk too - now on my second machine x

[@lauradell6316]

Pop socks and tuna with salad cream gang 🙋🏼‍♀️

[@kathyfoshay7111]

Hi there❤ let me know how you like the taste of the decaf coffee please 😊. That store is huge!! I could stay in there for hours as well. Lol 😊 take care ❤️💗😃

[@carolhodson6353]

Diamond art is very edictive.

[@hettytravels]

I think it’s a hoot that you have cookies called Maryland….I live in the state of Maryland, 🇺🇸. That store is normal size for us😅

[@brogantatexo]

Hahaha - you can see why we LOVE Super Target!! 😂

[@jenny6186]

So hilarious that you say perky 'nana' like grandma nana - it's nana as in banana because it's banana flavoured haha! I live in NZ and I think they have them here and maybe in Australia too. Whilst you're over here also stay away from Pinky bars and pineapple lumps - just as gross as perky nana's! And if you like penguin bars, they have tim tams here but they aren't as good as penguins by themselves - however, if you do a tim-tam-slam (look it up!) then they are amazing!

[@BlitztheBox]

Recommend Nespresso for a coffee machine! Coffee is much better quality that other pods :)

[@NickySouthern-qq8sd]

I can see me putting weight on, I love those new chocolate bars you've found. I also call them pop socks, so it's not just you. A girl can never have too much stationery. I can feel a big B&M shop coming on tomorrow. You are such a bad influence 😂😂

[@brogantatexo]

Whoops haha!! Xx

[@Hayley_13]

Hi, another great vlog, Boots usually have a 4 pack of oral b heads on their £10 Tuesday offers👍x

[@courtneymartin-ie2qp]

If you are looking for the white Cadbury digestive biscuits in Sainsbury’s have them

[@stinajones9847]

Listen....diamond art is such an relaxing, soothing hobby. Hours will pass without you realizing it. Great mental health health soother! Stay away from Amazon because you will somehow end up with 25 designs in your cart because they have some beautiful pictures! 🤣

[@GeoffreyBOULTON-v9k]

great video Brogan always enjoy watching you and benji on your travels we do like b&m as well we have a tassimo machine and we do love it but the pods are getting costly now

[@helenferguson9827]

I have a cola nut intolerance, which I have found out to be the caffeine part of fizzy drinks and energy drinks. I went onto pepis max caffeine free and omg the difference was amazing. I can still drink normal coffee with caffeine which I know sounds weird but that's what came back on my allergy test.

[@brogantatexo]

Oh wow, fascinating! Thanks for sharing!

[@paulasandersfeld8299]

This is off topic. But do you have a P.O. box? I have a lot of Disney 3d stickers for scrapbooks. I thought you might like. I don't need them anymore

[@Ptmxi93]

'Ooooh do we have a birthday card for so and so' I swear this is a monthly occurance for my husband. Forever needing a card.

[@brogantatexo]

Right?! They always spring it on us the day before or ON THE DAY 😂

[@lhp2050]

In other chocolate news! 😂 Wait until you go to Australia - get Tim Tams (similar to a penguin but more amazing!) ❤

[@jodismithxo3896]

I ABSOLUTELY love super noodles!!!!!! They are a guilty pleasure BBQ flavour are good as well but chicken is superior 🤣😋

[@brogantatexo]

I haven’t tried bbq!! Xx

[@jodismithxo3896]

@brogantatexo you defiantly should. They used to do chow mean flavour also but not sure if that's still around *see only a hard-core super noodle fan knows that hahaha* 🙈

[@louise7924]

Pepsi max also has caffeine. If i go over my tollerance limit I'm ill with really bad stomach issues. I really should wean myself off it but also addicted to my morning tin of pepsi max 😂

[@Lucyloo-oi8yc]

Loved this video❤ and I call them pop Socks too 😂😂😂

[@brogantatexo]

Wonder where that came from!! Haha x

[@KellyR456]

I make tuna salad cream, it’s elite… not many do it this way but it’s so much nicer than mayo!!!!!! Xxxx

[@schamber1000]

I don’t think we have salad cream in the U.S. unless it’s like Miracle Whip. I don’t think we have the water for the iron either. Interesting!
