ONE MONTH of food and supplies for a family of 12

[@jillgott6567]

I live alone. Before I retired I made a list of regularly used items estimating what I used in a month then multipled it by 12 - I purchased accordingly but found it became a little unwieldy [ live in an apartment] so after that most items urchased were for 6 months. This included dish soap, cleaners, so on. I have limited myself now to keeping 1 shampoo and 1 conditioner on hand once extras are used. up. I purchased over a year and a half ago 5 bottles of laundry detergent 32 loads each 64 ounces for $.59/ container at a discount store. I only use 1/4 cup per load plus add Hydrogen Peroxide or Baking Soda to my wash so still have plenty of detergent. Also I had a package of Tide pods given to me - I have laundry detergent for another 2 years or more. I do the same with other items Vinegar for laundry or cleaning, toilet tissue for 2 years, paper towels for3- 6 months. It really saves me money. Instead of Adult Butt wipes which are expensive I buy Baby Wipes and toss as I never flush wipes.

I know this post took extra time from you. Appreciate your sharing. Your nausea cure I want to get ASAP! I trust your judgement on several items. Julie, consider yourself gently hugged!

[@jasonandjulie]

Aww thanks! This is the stuff… www.amazon.com/dp/B000I83GGY/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_ABGTK05DVSSVGEGF1N6X?linkCode=ml1&tag=thekrekes-20 We do a spoonful in water every couple hours until vomiting stops. Also drink plenty of fluids so you don't get dehydrated! You can also use this for regular intestinal health. The directions are on the bottle

We last had 5KG of onions about to go bad. We chopped them in meal-size portions, and froze them in individual little baggies. So useful. I like it better than a fresh onion. After all when meal time comes around, all you need to do is take something from the freezer, put it in your pot: done. No time wasted chopping stuff.

You are so amazing, I am from a family of 12 children and unfortunately when I was a kid we had no bulk shopping so every week we would fill up two shopping carts and we had milk delivery every day. My Mom would have loved Cosco . Thanks for sharing another great video. Love and blessings to all 💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏

[@jasonandjulie]

Yes Costco is a huge help to big families!!

[@richardhensley9555]

Praying for you and your family that God would give you his perfect peace as you pray for his direction. My wife, Sharon and I love watching your family’s videos. Your videos have been such an encouragement to us.

We’ve been making homemade lemonade and throwing a handful of those organic frozen strawberries in and the boys love it!

[@EliB9619]

I love this type of video Julie! It is refreshing to me for some reason with the cost of absolutely everything going up. I always come away with ideas. We make our own deodorant and it is nothing special but very cheap and does the job even for my husband!

[@jasonandjulie]

I’ve always thought about making my own!

[@sylvianolan2185]

Great haul Julie. Best of luck to Bella at the expo🎉

[@jasonandjulie]

Thank you! She’s a little nervous but I think she’ll do amazing.

[@ryanm7249]

I loved this video. I hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend. I love you and your family.❤

[@jasonandjulie]

Thanks Patricia!

[@ashleyt6237]

I just started using Azure and love it! How do you keep bugs/rodents/pests out of your outdoor food storage?

[@jasonandjulie]

I use sticky traps for bugs and so far we haven’t had mouse problems. I’m so thankful!!

[@susanwilliams1881]

Thanks for sharing

[@joankirch8635]

Not to be nosy but I am impressed at how you can keep all this food on hand with the prices now! How do you balance all the groceries with the prices now.

[@jasonandjulie]

Yes prices do keep going up, but I don’t see them ever going back to what they were and we do still have to eat 🙃 so I you make it work. I didn’t buy all my surplus at the same time. You get a little extra here and there

[@joankirch8635]

Great video

[@marieparks5674]

If you turn your jars upside down, they stay cleaner

[@traciesimons4028]

Thanks for sharing! Do you have problems with mice getting into your storage/pump house? Also, what is your lemonade recipe? Thank you!

[@jasonandjulie]

So far no mice problems! I’m grateful! Lemonade is 1/4 c lemon juice and 1/2 tsp stevia in a half gallon jar of water.

[@1jmass]

I’m fairly sure that you, like me, do not use credit cards, but I do have an Amazon Prime Visa card I use on a regular basis. I always pay it off so there are no interest charges. The reason I use it is because you get 5% off on almost all of your Amazon purchases. I use Amazon for pretty much all of my shopping, and at this point I have accrued over $300. You definitely can use it to pay for your orders, but I generally try to wait until Christmas since that is my primary spending time. Just a thought.

[@jasonandjulie]

Nice!

[@amixeblu]

My next door neighbor keeps & breeds pigeons. We live in a townhouse so his permit is "debatable", but hey he got it, somehow. His cage is huge and spans the space between the walls. So it's as good as on our property. When they fly it is such a bother to us, but... all this to say... pigeon meat is "strong" meat, in the sense that it is very nourishing. Maybe think about keeping birds like this for food?

[@jasonandjulie]

Interesting! I’ve never tried pigeon. What is the flavor like?

[@amixeblu]

@@jasonandjulie I have never had it myself. My parents grew up on it, and organ meats such as liver (baby boomers). It's not like chicken, that's for sure. It has a very strong taste, apparently. But: very nutritious.

[@AnnJo24224]

My grandparents were making soup of pigeons as medicine for sick children ( broth). But I remember them saying using only young ones before the fly out, something like that.

[@amixeblu]

@@AnnJo24224 No clue what the reasoning behind the "young pigeons" is...

[@jesuslovesyou9032]

Can you please do a video tutorial on how to make your kambucha?

[@jasonandjulie]

I do have a video on it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWGoqJ5-bM92o5Y although these days I skip the second (fruit) step and we just drink it after the first ferment. One less thing to do! 😆

[@jesuslovesyou9032]

@@jasonandjulie thank you!

[@lh3003]

Lots of yummy food. Iv been struggling with snacks, we have fruit but seems to go so fast, do you make baked goods as snacks ❤

[@jasonandjulie]

Yes we do often make baked goods for snacks. I have a couple kids who like to bake so they will sometimes make things. That’s where a lot of that honey goes 😆 We also do yogurt popsicles, homemade granola bars (or sometimes the kids will just mix oats and honey together) and popcorn. My kids all like carrots too for snacks

[@leighleigh747]

Holy crap that seems like a lot for what you got I have never been to Costco I don't have one in my area but seems to me bjs is cheaper

[@jasonandjulie]

We don’t have bjs in this area. Sounds like a great store

[@dawnteskey3259]

I cant go to Costco without a written list. I will invariably buy things not on the list and also forget things that should be on the list. Lol!

[@jasonandjulie]

Sounds like me LOL.

[@sandiebrown8291]

Very interesting video love all the products. Could you tell me what you use for vomiting 🤮 thanks

[@jasonandjulie]

[@susansharpe7464]

Let us know if you think the butter was worth it. Been thinking about it.

[@jasonandjulie]

We’ve enjoyed it. Definitely has that “grass fed flavor” but my kids are used to it from our own cow so they really enjoy it. It seems that we’re not going through it quite as fast since it’s so rich in flavor so maybe itll work out money wise

[@east_vlogs]

can u show us how to make the yogurt strawberry popsicle

[@jasonandjulie]

Sure!

[@east_vlogs]

@@jasonandjulie thank you! i want to make them for my younger sister :)

[@jasonandjulie]

It’s honestly so easy… I just put yogurt and strawberries in the blender with something to sweeten as needed (honey, real maple syrup, stevia, or something like that) Then I freeze it in popsicle molds.

[@east_vlogs]

@@jasonandjulie oh that’s so simple thank u!

Thanks Karen!

[@lynnparker3467]

What salad dressing do you make.

[@jasonandjulie]

I usually do just do an oil and vinegar dressing or I use the buttermilk ranch mix from Azure standard. Also my sister makes some delicious salad dressings and she’ll often give me a jar of her concoctions! That’s my favorite 😄

[@amixeblu]

No need to feel bad about using something that isn't "natural". BTW, Avalon Organics is a great shampoo brand! Anyway, you do you. Nobody else can decide for you or judge you for your choices.

[@donnajohnson6062]

What is the name of the vomiting medince please

[@jasonandjulie]
