$3000.00 + Large Family Grocery Haul | Pantry & Freezer Stock Up

Our local grocery store is rather pricey, so it makes financial sense for us to have a well stocked pantry and freezer. In addition, we have to drive an hour to get to the city to more affordable shopping, and many times it isn't practical to do so. This year we took advantage of free shipping from Walmart, Target, Sam's Club and Amazon pantry.......can I say AMAZING. You place your order online and in a few days your pantry items are delivered to your door. #happymom :D Shelby

[@TheUgliestKitchen]

This might sound weird, but I was in the middle of an anxiety attack and nothing I was doing was helping me calm down. I made myself sit and watch something that I knew would be fun, and by the end of your video I had relaxed. Thanks for helping bring a little joy to my life :)

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Allie thank you. Simply thank you.........I just showed Ken you comment. You made my day, that is for sure. Bless your heart!!! Shelby

[@kaylaumana3917]

Me too omg small world! I had a rough night with anxiety too and this has made me so calm and happy to watch

[@kellys7291]

Allie her voice calms me too lol . You guys are so blessed,

[@MsSharon2011]

Allie awww bless you x I know that feeling . Next time you feel one coming on try going up and down the stairs a few times if you can . And just concentrate on your breathing after . I know I find this so relaxing too . You tube is my drug lol . It’s just adrenaline remember that next time and you will be ok I promise xxx

[@bew1972]

What a sweet, sweet comment Allie...I really hope your anxiety improves. I have anxiety and panic attacks so I know personally how hard it is to get yourself out of them. So cool that you found something that helped :)

[@reddirtgirl308]

This lady reminds me of my aunt, I loved her. She use to make sack lunches for us we had 6 kids food was scarce alot of the time..and my Aunt would deliver our lunches just in time at the school office, with our names on the sacks. Rice krispy treats grapes bolony & chesse considered special occasion food in our house. 50 years ago. Thank You Aunt Marie. GODS HELPER.

[@adeleray2155]

I am reading this beautiful comment 4 years later and it’s made my heart full, your aunt was an amazing woman.😊

[@skyjames4265]

I don’t know why i like grocery halls but here I am on a marathon of them at 8am 😂 such a good video 🙃😁

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Aw thank you Shelby

[@trishana1o1]

and here i am a month later doing the very same thing. at the same time and i live alone and rearly ever buy grocery.

[@kathyclover7960]

And here I am 2 years later~love these hauls, pantry tours!😂

[@jesusistherock1000]

You probably like them because deep down you want a stockpile like they do that’s why I watch them

[@Family4eva888]

Can you please do videos showing some of the meals you make or how to make them? Sorry for asking..didn't grow up with a mom and youtube has been how i taught myself to cook. Your very good at explaining and showing things so i think you would be equally good at that....pleeease ☺

[@tamykah478]

My suggestion to is to watch some cooking channels also if you eat out write down what you and the guest ordered and look ut up on you tube and they will you how to make it too

[@VictoriaLynn-flaming_hearts]

Try foodnetwork.com also. Best way to learn in my opinion, look up Alton Brown "good eats" and Guy Fieri. He has "diners, drive-ins, and dives," plus "guys big bite." You on a budget? Try Sandra Lee, "semi homemade"

[@lisamargaret6751]

Mama Bear i agree ,, please show us some hearty roasts and meat recipes !!

[@krish0588]

Check out Good Wishes. The guy has a sense of humor too 😊

Tammy Harris Has

[@madelinestainback3136]

she literally has her own grocery store in her house lol

[@TheQueensCabinet]

That is a good way to look at it Madeline :D Shelby

[@medravanzuyen4759]

We call it Medra-Mart at my house. I buy in bulk when things go on sale and I've turned one of the rooms in our basement into my own grocery store. I once bought 20 packages of hamburger meat that were in patties (8 to a pack!) and since it was right after the 4th of July they had them on sale for fifty cents a package! They didn't have a limit so I bought ALL they had at that insane price! I also once bought 3 years worth of tuna in a can since the expectation date was 3 years away and they were only asking 35 cents a can! I figured we could easily go through 3 cans a week without getting tired of it. It's amazing how many ways you can fix tuna! My son was really sad when we ran out.

[@allisalinor1084]

Thought what I'm thinking all i can think of is expiration dates😭😭

[@CraftyMomof12]

I have to buy in bulk every month!

[@cynthiamateo9450]

Madeline Stainback a lot of money on groceries. Her husband must make good money

[@susieast450]

Your pantry makes me smile. Having a big pantry, fully stocked and organized, is every mother's dream 😍😍 lol

[@brokemyhalo7898]

Fire that video up 😂

[@dy9605]

Never in my life did I think I'd be watching someone else talk about their groceries but this is fascinating to me 😁 I love seeing how people in different cultures cook. We live in north America but are Asian in background. I can safely say I've never bought brown gravy or ranch dressing mix but if it were me, I'd be buying gallons of soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil. My mother will buy pounds of garlic at a time run it through the food processor to mince it all in one go, then store it in an extra glass jar in oil so we never have to mince individual cloves each time we cook.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I know what you mean. Ken and I love going to the Asian market on Ord Street in LA, we have been going there for many years. I love going down the aisles and exploring all the new things. That is brilliant of your mom to mince a lot of garlic at one time, we use garlic in just about everything we cook. I love how fresh everything is in Asian markets. Hugs Shelby

[@icedmocha5264]

My mom and aunt do the same thing with garlic!

[@germyw]

Stealing this idea from Mom.

[@missyhathaway6627]

When you do the math... 3,000 dollars equals out to less then 58 dollars a week for 1 year... It's EASY to blow that kind of money on one nice dinner! You will save so much in the long run especially with the delicious meals you make!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

It helps so much to have a stocked pantry/freezer to pull from, especially on hectic days. Like you said, just one meal eaten out can take a big bite out of the budget. You'll crack up, I was at the boys college awhile back and got a cup of coffee at the cafeteria.........sit down........they charged me 7 dollars. It wasn't anything fancy, just coffee. I couldn't believe it. I bought the kids those metal coffee mugs that day. LOL Hope you have a great weekend!!!

[@chrisfry436]

BUT you are averaging this on a whole year, so watch and she will be doing another grocery haul in the future and already has a stocked freezer and pantry goods.

[@QuyenTran-hh5lg]

@@chrisfry436 thats my problem too. When I blow 100$ on 1 trip on grocery, I always fool myself if I dont go next week, it will only 50$ a week. That never happend. The only way to do it is meal plans and stick with it, week to week. No matter how much I think I need some items, I will tell myself that I will come back next week to get it.

[@QuyenTran-hh5lg]

@@chrisfry436 plus I saw she had 3 bottles of 57 sauce already in the pantry, yet in the sam club/ walmart haul, she got another 57.

[@claribelnana5411]

Let make it clear The fruit and vegetables will prolly last a month it won't last for a year

[@jpwhataboutit]

As we live paycheck to paycheck, we could never do something like this. It sure looks like fun to do. God bless.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

JP don't say never, Ken and I lived pay check to pay check when we were first married. I would highly recommend Dave Ramsey's 6 baby steps, you won't regret it!!! Hugs Shelby

[@jpwhataboutit]

TheQueensCabinet Thank you! Will look into it right away.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

NICE!!!!

[@susananderson1071]

I'm the same way. We stopped buying meat.. because if the cost. But we own our home and are debt free.

[@tortureyou]

Two meat items that go a long way are whole pork loins and boneless c hicken breast. You should be able to find both in the $1.69 to $1.99 range. I slow roast the pork loin in the slow cooker , shred it, add some refried beans, spanish rice and several packets of taco seasoning and it makes a huge batch of pork taco meat. Tortillas are fairly cheap and its so handy to have on hand. I cook the chicken breast in half water half chicken stock and shred it also, then add it to pre boiled carrots, celery and frozen noodles to make a thick soup that I put over inexpensive mashed potatoes. I stay away from red meat until I find chuck roasts and ground hamburger (80/20) in the 1.99 to 2.49 lb range.

[@kawaiisakura23]

I love seeing stuff like this when I purchase my house it’s gonna be full just like this. It hits me differently because I came from very humble beginnings and didn’t always have a full fridge and cabinets. 💯💕

[@apfelprincess45]

Other youtubers take note. Shelby this is definitely the way to buy! You're a class act the way you have compared prices and really taken advantage of buying in bulk and stocking up as opposed to all those people who spend a fortune every week. I salute you! Enjoyed this whilst I ate my lunch, thanx for posting :)

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Aw thank you!

[@anitatucker8812]

I love shopping and my cabinets stocked full. Full cabinets gives you such a good feeling.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I know what you mean Anita. It saves so much money to be able to whip dinner up from the pantry, especially when you stock up on a good sale. Hope you have a fantastic weekend girlfriend!!!!!

[@anitatucker8812]

TheQueensCabinet You too Shelby. Hugs

[@JB-vd8bi]

Yes! I get a little anxious when staples run low!

[@Jan2times]

That was one of the most satisfying hauls I’ve ever experienced.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thanks Bailey!

[@candidethirtythree4324]

When the only local grocery store is also the gas station you know you are going to be paying much more and have a much smaller selection. I don't think everyone understands the reality of food deserts in rural areas.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Well said

[@chelseat6108]

Always been a fan of grocery hauls and an advocate for preparedness no matter your pantry size but girl....your pantry and freezers are goals!!! Came up in my recommended feed and now I’m a subscriber.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Welcome to my channel Chelsea, we have a great group here. You might like some upcoming videos if you are into preparedness, our solar is going in.....yes!!! We have been waiting for the electric company's engineer to sign off on our 400 amp upgrade. Everything else was approved months ago. Ken is doing a wood burner broiler this summer too. Cool stuff coming. Shelby

[@kadon1114]

I just did the same thing! Freezer and pantry is stocked up for my family for the next 6 months. Spent about a $1000 and your right it sure does save money! Thanks for the video, you gave me a lot of ideas on what to get next time 🤗

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Kaitra that is so awesome! I agree it saves money in the long run for sure. Hope you have a great weekend!!! Shelby

[@Iheart2cook]

Wow Shelby girl, you got it going on!! This has to be the largest KZbin pantry stockup. Most folks just go to one store, but you really maximized your $ and shopped around. Very wise. You’re right, just saying “this series of hauls was $3,000” seems like a lot of cash, but what would you have spent had you shopped local? $4,000-$6,000? Loved the shipping option. Walmart impressed me. I wish I could do a stock up like this, but my finances won’t permit, nor do I have the room. I’ll just have to love vicariously thru you. Certainly a true blessing. Thank you for sharing your skills with us!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I simply love and adore you!

[@tooziefaloozie]

Vicariously*

[@angelmabery]

Tia TT I was thinking this very thing!

[@AyeshaAKamal]

Just listening to her listing off the items and their prices was therapeutic.

[@HannahMattox]

I love going back and watching your stock-ups! The comment sections get so funny after this long 😂😂

[@TheQueensCabinet]

They do Hannah. Some lady cursed me out when Covid shortages appeared, saying I was hoarding all the toilet paper and I should be strung and quartered. I pointed out that the pre covid stock up video was serval months old and I hadn't gone to the store from late January 2020 until about Father's Day because New York was hit so hard with Covid. I literally hadn't gone shopping for over 6 1/2 months during the shortages. Although I hadn't bought not one roll of toilet paper during the shortages, I still offered to send her some if she was in need, but all I got was crickets. LOL

[@HannahMattox]

@@TheQueensCabinet some people are just out to make life hard on others. Those of us who see you as a friend know you're not the kind of person they were making you out to be. I know Covid hasn't been easy, but some folks don't care to fact check before calling someone out of their good name. Be glad I didn't see it, because then you'd have had 2 of us cussing 😂😂😂 I'd been all over that lady! I'm too mean (when needed) for people to act like that!

[@JO-pj2lw]

That's $250/mo for a family of 6 ....wow! You did an amazing job even with the splurges!!!!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you Miss Jamie!

[@bonzc2174]

I don't know how I stumbled across this video. But for some strange reason this was very relaxing. Never would have thought about shopping for a whole year. I know that definitely takes a lot of planning ..and like you said free delivery was definitely probably a big game changer. It's amazing just have it delivered to your door and not having to go to the grocery store. You've definitely got a new subscriber

[@tendersheep667]

How is Target ever cheaper? I've never ever gotten a "deal" from them NOT once!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I noticed that they were a little more overall, and they didn't package items very well. I had a lot of dented cans from Target, Walmart did a much better job. I'm sticking with Walmart. Shelby

[@samandziva]

I find alot of things cheaper at Target. Even more so if you use the cartwheel app

[@tonycook5802]

@Cyndi Rothrock Sam's always is the best deal on most of your items ! I promise , it's In everyones best interest to comparetion shop, all these stores because everyones area is different!!

[@nikkineal6431]

Target near me marks things down that are about to expire. I got five dollars off per package of this normally expensive vegan meat alternative the other day. It was nice to stock up. Today they had a lot of buy two get one free and they did have better prices now then they did before.

[@stephaniespalmer]

Cyndi Rothrock .55 a can is still high. Ive never paid more than .40 a can but I also live in a "food desert" it takes 40 minutes to get a decent prices grocery store. But because we're so rural we have LOTS of farmers markets that things are waaay cheaper

[@mitravaruna]

You look great with bangs! Thanks for these helpful organization videos.

[@Inkiequill]

Oh my goodness!!! I am drooling over your American food prices!! That haul would have easily been $6k Australian! For example, that 98 box of granola bars for $9.99 - we typically pay about $7 for 6 bars 😱😱😱 Amazing buys, makes me want to clean out my pantry, do some meal planning and then stock it up again! Thanks for taking the time to make this video for us.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I am always shocked at the prices in Australia and New Zealand. I used most of the items in my pantry and freezer the past few months, it was nice re stocking it. Hope you have a great weekend. Shelby

[@Lileestar]

They do definitely have cheap prices, I did notice a lot was very similar to here (nz) like the beans, tomatoes etc. our prices are higher but our wages are a lot higher too so I think it probably works out similar. Maybe not the muesli bars though haha.

[@fruitsalad5976]

Im from Australia to and was thinking this would be good to do, then realised its far to expensive, even shopping around for bargains :(

[@CassandraShiann]

Everywhere I've seen says Australian minimum wage is $18/hr.. our US dollar equates to $1.36 in Australian dollar, and where I live our minimum wage is $8.10/hr..

[@CassandraShiann]

So that explains why things are more expensive in Australia, because you guys make a hell of a lot more lol. (if what I read is true of course.)

[@nfogarty001]

Hi Shelby, greetings from Southern California! I rarely comment on YT videos but I wanted to say how much joy I feel when watching your videos no matter what the content. You are such a wonderful human and this world needs a million Shelby's and Ken's that is for sure. Thank you for sharing with us, xoxo p.s. 111 degrees here today, thought I moved to Arizona for a minute, LOL

I am so glad you commented and thank you for such beautiful words of encouragement. We lived in Riverside, and Ken's parents still live in Huntington Beach, I don't miss the triple digits. Hope you have a great weekend and stay cool. Shelby

[@professionalcommenter]

This pantry makes my OCD heart happy! It's a relief to see a full pantry too. Also I have had the wonderful pleasure of eating roasted green chili peppers from New Mexico!! Yum yum!!

[@missgibbonsx2376]

For some people $3000 is a fortune, for others it's a simple haul. Don't get me wrong but I need about $3000 for a life changing situation right now. For me that's an amount hard to get to when saving up. You're so blessed and fortunate. I loved the video, blessings! 😊💜

[@cindymac3963]

Your pantry is a grocery store to most! That haul is huge! Enjoyed watching the prices as I am from Canada! Your food costs are so much cheaper then ours!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

[@nancyosgood777]

Wow!! That was a mega haul!! It must feel awesome to be so well stocked!! Your pantry is beautiful , so well organized. Can't wait to see the beautiful meals that come out of all that!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Aw thanks Nancy, I was so glad I didn't have to haul all that stuff. Who ever invented the pantry delivery service deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.

[@w.a.watson3078]

Amazing. If you saved $50.00 a month you would have $600.00 to go toward a yearly haul. (think of it as a Christmas gift for the family). If you saved monthly $100.00 at the end of the year you would have $1200.00. To me this makes sense. You would have to devote yourself strictly towards a budget. If nothing else the Corona Virus should teach people to be more frugal.

[@ihartsnowyo]

Never in my whole life have I ever heard of canned roast beef! I can't wait to see what you do with it. Your recipes are always inspirational.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

It makes the best shredded beef tacos or taquitos. One can makes about 12. Here is a video showing how to use the canned beef; it starts @ 6 minute 54 second mark. kzbin.info/www/bejne/noPam2aknLafr68

[@bohemianbookworm9361]

this is a year haul not a month to month type of situation - I think that is the difference. Everyone's approach varies to provide for their family. This looks delish!

[@donnasimon86]

This was the Mount Everest of grocery hauls😱 WOW!!!! I've never seen such an enormous haul before.😱 You did get some great deals 💃 It's so smart of you to stock up like that 👌 It must be nice 😊 Your pantry is very organized👌 I love it💕 You guys are very fortunate 🙏 Thanks so much for sharing such an impressive haul.

Sitting watching this while drinking my morning coffee! As someone from across the pond... I can't get over all the different products and brands you have! One thing that really strikes me is all the plastic that is used by American produce companies! Great video 😁

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Lauren I really dislike all the plastic too. We are putting in our garden plot (doing the back to Eden garden) and can't wait to start growing our own produce. Hugs Shelby

[@kellys7291]

Can you show us how youstore stuff .. like how do you store your veggies. And meat..

[@kellys7291]

Also ..does the stuff you order off online have longer shelf life.. I have noticed the stuff in the store will expire in just two weeks .. so I can’t stock up. Hope this is a clear question. =)

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Kelly I use greensavers in the veggie/fruit bins and change the filters every 3 months www.containerstore.com/s/oxo-greensaver-crisper-inserts/d?productId=11001490&q=greensaver When I store meat in the freezer I package it in Food Saver bags. I try and buy in bulk once a year to get a better price, they say it keeps things fresher 5xs longer. I know it prevents freezer burn. Best kitchen gadget ever.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

This was the first time I ordered online and got mostly pantry stuff, the expiration dates were about two years out. Hopefully I am answering your question? :D Shelby

[@Kt-cn2rq]

TheQueensCabinet I was going ask about the expiration dates for the foods. At the store I always go grab ones in the very back because most of the time they do the fifo method at grocery stores.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Kathy Heskett Targets customer service was fantastic about replacing. Shelby

[@emilytorres5818]

Can I just say your stockpile is a DREAM! my husband and I are in a pretty small town house with zero pantry space and I'd die for that much space to hold all the tasty things I have no room for!! Lol

This reminds me of home i was raised in the middle of no where land 12 people in all 10 acres of farmland closest anything was 3 hours driving distance and in the winters it could take a sold month to get to us we did trips like this once a month and right before the first frost we would drop thousands on food. We all so had 5 5,500 gallon tanks for propane and gas for the winter. And fire wood too. We didnt have indoor electricity. We had 2 pot belly stoves.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

That is a ton of propane! We lived in LA area our entire life and I have been enjoying the change. I just wish we had a decent grocery store!

[@bubbles__61104]

TheQueensCabinet yes where i was in vw in them three hours we had 4 stop lights and 3 pavement roads lol it was the best thing ever now we did have a "out light" witch was where we had electricity ran we had 3 of the commercial freezers 2 commercial refrigerator's in one of the big long deep freezers and later on we had two of the side by sides refrigerator freezers we hunted fished we used it all even the bones to make arrows.

[@lizcollins9366]

We are empty nesters also, but with a twist. My hubby drives truck all week, so I'm here by myself. I don't cook for just me, so if I don't have anything I can grab, I just don't eat. Not good, but some days when I look in the fridge/freezer, I don't want any of it lol

[@Ristina81]

Has anyone considered canning the leftovers? We are a family of 9 and people insist on leftovers but never eat it! I started pressure canning leftovers if I get a chance.

[@cristinamorenolamin3217]

OMG Shelby what a wonderful haul and your organisation is amazing. Just looking at the amount of plastic in the Target delivery boxes.we do all we can in Europe to minimise plastic but its a waste of time when everything is packaged in plastic. Wont the manufacturers and grocers ever help us to help the planet? Not getting at you, you are a brilliant homemaker. Xx

[@LoriCrabtree31]

You could get half of a cow from a cattle farmer for around $400-$600 butchered. You choose how you want it cut or if you would prefer it to be ground. You would have around 450 lbs. of beef. You could do the same with a pig. We order our groceries online from Kroger, but we do a pickup. We live too far out for delivery.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

OMGosh, I think we are so much alike. We ordered a cow two years ago and it was a HUGE Blessing. I am saving to do that again, maybe this winter! Shelby

Hi I've just found your channel and I love it!!! Loving the food haul. I live in the U.K. where houses are smaller. You are living my dream. ❤️❤️. Love all your videos. xx

[@dchannel2139]

This is the biggest haul that i've watched! And it is soooo satisfying to watch. 😍😍😍

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thanks :D

[@kacysimpson3960]

This is the best so far,I love it that its a year stock,but also your the only one who tells us the price,96percent of your food is healthy

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Aw thanks Kacy. I loved the Walmart Pantry delivery, they had some really good online specials too. Have a great weekend!! Shelby

[@TheKat1959]

Shelby, your voice is so similar to Ina Garten. Soothing, friendly. A real comfort. Thank you for sharing your grocery hauls with us. It helps all learn more of pantry organization, to see what you have so you can make meals from those items on hand, saving tips, to check online pricing. I am SO glad I came across you. Have a blessed day 😋🤤😋🤤😋🤤😋

[@LoriCrabtree31]

I used our delivery boxes for sheet mulching too. I think I found my people!!!!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Lori now that Ken is getting all his projects done, I need him to get my garden going! :D

[@angrichrds1]

This was like grocery haul nirvana. Love it!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Aw thank you. Hope you are having a great weekend!

[@michellejones4934]

Wow! Great hauls & I love your pantry organization.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Aw thanks Michelle!

[@barbarastowers8405]

I just subscribed but I love your delivery hauls. I just bought $600 walmart haul myself, but i bought dishes, pots & pans, blender, coffee pot, towels all kinds of stuff. I love shopping online because I can take my time & they deliver right to the door!! Awesome....I bought a big haul for my sister for her birthday...she had no idea & it was such a fun surprise for her!!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Hi Lilly and welcome to my channel. I agree, the person who invented the pantry delivery should be awarded the Pulitzer Peace Prize. You are such a great sis for doing that!!! God Bless Shelby

[@SB-ll1tt]

I loved watching this. You eat so completely differently to us. We don’t do spicy 🥵. Loved your video. Thank you.

[@TS-ct8it]

Shelby - I made your compound garlic butter last night and the garlic bread was a big hit. Tonight I decided to add it to corn on the cob and it was delicious. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Lori you will find so many ways to use the garlic butter.....stir fry shrimp, I have a scalloped potato recipe that uses it, you can add it to cooked rice for an instant flavor punch...........:D

[@scrapangie88]

Amazing...you and Ken are my role models! We are a family of 5 (3 boys!) and we just did a stock up too. It helps so much having food on hand..I just wish I had your space!! Lots of love from Montreal :)

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Awe thanks Angie. I'm sure it really helps you guys out with the food prices being so high in Canada. Hope you are having a great weekend!

[@trishawnatreasure]

WAS SO BORED AND CAME ACROSS YOUR VIDEO AND I IMMEDIATELY SUBSCRIBED...

[@karincope3019]

I can’t believe how bare your cupboard in your pantry are. I binged your videos today and started my pantry .

[@greydoe]

You are possibly the most organized person on Earth. :)

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I still have a lot more areas of the house to organize but i'm slowly getting them done. It sure helps save time having things in their place. Hugs Shelby

[@sarahdunningham8661]

Wow what a lot of unpacking and organising!! Great video xx

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thanks Sarah, thank goodness most of it was delivered. Hope you have a great weekend!!

[@sarahdunningham8661]

Thank you. We are all excited for the next match of the World Cup. We are hoping England win. We are having very hot weather at the moment so think a watermelon is on my grocery list today x have a blessed weekend

[@lykab.3157]

we are not that financially stable, but we go sometimes on grocery stores, mostly we only go to a market near us, and i really like watching these types of videos because it made me really happy and i always daydream about having this much food, and i just watched this 35min video and this just made my whole freaking night, this vid made me so happy, and ithink what made the video so amazing and beautiful is because youre very calm and very sweet lady❤️

[@Aggie_Fehr]

Holy haul! I wish I had the space to shop like that!! We literally eat everything we buy in a week...one day I’ll have more space to stock up. Very fun to watch!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

When Ken and I were first married I had a TINY cupboard for a pantry, if you could call it that. I always dreamed of a big pantry, it is what sold me on this house. Hugs Shelby

[@chrissygravitt9196]

Oh my gosh Shelby!! I don't even know where to start girl, first off can I come and stay with you for about a month? Just so I can watch and LEARN (and eat of course) this haul was amazing your groceries and the pantry finale was just Goals girl👍. I can't wait to see your next weekly meal plan. P.S. please share the recipe for that strawberry cake you were talking about.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Chrissy I always read your comments with an Aussie accent and it makes me HaPpY!!! Here is the cake recipe kzbin.info/www/bejne/onjJi4WJn9Kjesk

[@QueenVelveeta]

If you don't have a video already, please do one on how you menu plan. I am so weak in this area. Thanks.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I have had a lot of requests for this, so will add to the list. Hope you are having a great weekend!!!

[@judycoulter4556]

Wow thank you so much for sharing. I’ve been binge watching your haul videos and they are awesome.

[@andreaostler1710]

I am loving your videos!!! I love when my food storage is full and organized. You have given me a lot of great ideas. I would love to see your big food storage area!!!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I know what you mean Andrea, I really need to get back into canning this fall. I did can 5 pints of brandies cherries yesterday, my neighbor brought me some cherries. So good over ice cream, kind of like Cherries Jubilee. I need to do some work organizing my bulk storage, we have been busy with a lot of outsider work this work. I'm thankful it's Sunday and I can rest LOL SHelby

[@meghan5467]

This is a huge HUGE eye opener for me and you have inspired me to give this a try!! Even if I do a couple months at a time until I get the hang of it but I want to do this!! Thank you SO much for this video.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

My pleasure Meghan, I fill in with perishables as needed. Hugs Shelby

[@Gran2023]

Thanks for sharing this, I know it had to be a job just to record it all! I don’t know why I haven’t thought of ordering delivery from Sam’s Club, I usually order from Amazon and Walmart but Sam’s has a few things I can’t get anywhere else, thanks. The McCafe coffee is our favorite, great deal!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

The cool thing about Sam's is the instant rebate they have in the stores, they give you with the online order. Like Walmart they packed the items very well and had free shipping. Hope you have a great weekend!

[@StarryCOceanna]

I like to freeze the baguettes for garlic bread! Cut them in half spread garlic butter and then wrap in foil ( for easy baking) and freeze!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

That is a great tip Hannah! Thank you Shelby

[@robininva]

That’s so wise to get it done. Saves gas, energy, time, headache.... What an enormous peace of mind! I did the math on what my bi-weekly grocery money budget is...and it came out to just under $3000 for the year...... So....you’ve gotten me thinking! New subscriber!!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thanks Robin and welcome to my channel :D Shelby

[@grizzly0410]

“McCafe, gotta put your pinky up!” THAT made my night !🤣

[@TheQueensCabinet]

:D

[@vanellopevonsweets4876]

One time at Aldi's I found 24 ounce packages of the sugar cured bacon for $2 each. We got 10 packs for our family of 3. And then again another time with 12 oz for a $1. 49 each.

[@LoveMy2Doxies20]

Hi Shelby. I saw in comments you did dave Ramsey. We're on step 2,chugging along. Could you do a video of how long it took you to complete step 2,amount of debt, and what your top favorite ways were to cut through corners to get to where you are. Also are you still doing his baby steps? If so what step you are on now. You have given my husband and I hope that will took be able to live like no one else debt free. To have solar and shop big hauls like this! Just find your channel and already loving it! Such an inspiration!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Step 2 was by far the hardest, but keep at it and then all the rest fall into place. We are on 7, and also funding the kids schooling. One of our boys wants to go to Carnegie Melon for his masters, yikes! I told Ken we might need to come out of retirement. LOL Keep up the great work guys!!!

[@Saturn57]

I agree with other commenters. It takes alot of dedication and focus to keep track of all expiration dates and manage unused items after opening them.

[@dailylife9948]

Tip for ranch mix. They have a big bottle of ranch seasoning instead of buying the packages.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I will be on the look out next time. Thank you for mentioning Shelby

[@lindaberkowitz5453]

Omg. I wish I had the space you have. Awesome. Love the deliveries. You are a great cook.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Linda my first kitchen had a tiny half cupboard for a pantry. Some people dream of diamonds and such, I always wanted a large pantry hahahahaha Ken did a great job building the shelves. Have a good weekend! Shelby

[@TheMtggrl]

Wow ... that is a ton of food, do you have a large family? I live in a tiny condo in California and we don't have any room for storage, but wow what a great feeling that must be to shop your own pantry and cook rather than have to go shopping every other day like I do. Thanks for sharing your haul with us.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I can so relate, our first "pantry" was a half cupboard. I always have dreamed of a large pantry and how convenient it would be. I think if the people doing the cooking designed kitchens, they would be more functional.

[@wendydarling158]

I just stumbled across your video and channel. First off wow! While it may seem like a lot of money you’ll probably save a lot in the long run! Secondly I’m so jealous of your pantry I live in Scotland and we don’t have pantries here it’s just you fridge, freezer and cupboards, I’ll just need to live through you. Thirdly I applaud your organisation on this mammoth shopping trip! Finally, you are such a lovely and kind person, there are close to 2,000 comments and I have scrolled through so many and seen that you have replied to all the ones I’ve seen! To take time out your day and personally write a thoughtful comment to each person is admirable. I hope you continue to make amazing videos such as this one as you clearly have talent given by the lord for reaching out to people! Well done keep up the great work xx

[@gumby858]

Wow! This is just amazing! I loved this video.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Aw thanks Jess

[@shellyj70]

Just came across your channel and i loved it . I will be subscribing and catching up on all the other vlogs x

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you and welcome to my channel. We have a great group here, and I am so glad you will be joining us. Shelby

[@alessandrarod4806]

I saw your haul and was amazed. Every year we go to Wisconsin from chicago. And the families we visit live about 2 hours away from a fully stocked grocery store. Every year we go, every family wire my parents money and ask us to bring a haul truck full of food!! I understand how hard it is to have nothing so close!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Sandra that is so kind of your parents to do that, what a beautiful family you are!! :D Shelby

[@sarahladouceur5548]

I hear you on expensive groceries, I live in British Columbia Canada.. went up to the grocery store for a few things, one grocery bag was $45! It's brutal! This has to be the biggest pantry stock up I have ever seen.. Your house is absolutely stunning! I am starting to do my pantry stock up now before my kids go to school in September, although there are no places here that deliver !! So I'm a tad jealous :) great video!

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Sarah you are beautiful and smart!!! Stocking your pantry as you can helps out in so many ways. Our family went to BC when I was a child, what a beautiful place to live!! I'd like to get back there and visit. Wishing you all the best Shelby

[@sarahladouceur5548]

So are you!! :). It truly is beautiful here, very beautiful. We are lucky. Although we are in the middle of a heatwave currently..And the past week has been 33-34 degrees C .. Tomorrow is 37! Beautiful but hot! very hot.. had to do a throwback of the oldies and make an icebox cake .. no way that oven is going on! lol

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Sarah Ladouceur I hear that!

[@Victoriaxx08]

Sarah Ladouceur I moved to BC this week! I hear ya on grocery prices .. :( at least it’s beautiful here!

[@sarahladouceur5548]

It is absolutely gorgeous here! But the gas prices, grocery prices, car insurance etc just continues to get worse and worse It's brutal!

[@sunnybelisle4007]

WOW!!! Amazing job, Shelby!! Must be a great feeling to have your major grocery shopping done for the next year. Just did a smallish Costco haul today...haven't the room for a whole lot. Besides, there's only two of us old folks and we don't eat much any more. :-| We came home drained from the effort of walking around that big store so I know what you mean about the blessing of having your groceries delivered. If I weren't such a control freak--wanting to pick out my own groceries, I'd probably look into having them delivered. It may eventually come to that, tho'. :-D Thanks for all of the meal ideas. Hugs.......

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Sunny I know what you mean about liking to pick out your groceries, it's good to know you have an option. I sure hope you two are having a great weekend. Hugs Shelby

[@soniauk4284]

Being a sensible steward for you and you're lovely family 😊 💕 💕 blessings from UK 🇬🇧 xxx

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you Sonia for such kind and supportive words. You made my day! Hugs Shelby

[@soniauk4284]

TheQueensCabinet xx keep up the great vlogs xx 💕 💕

[@bfoster2335]

I love how you label, and the shelves are awsome .

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you Bridgette!

[@sally-3830]

I would love to see how you cook! Your very blessed & thanks for sharing ☺️

[@carolr7606]

So great you can have all those heavy boxes delivered!! #pantrygoals 💕

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Carol the person that invented it deserves a Noble Peace Prize.

[@StevieeeRae]

I don't eat meat or dairy but I like to watch these giant grocery hauls because it gives me tips on how to be a real adult. :)

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Aw thanks Stevie Rae

[@effiecross2008]

I've also been using Sam's/WalMart/Amazon for stocking up on things(just in smaller amounts!) It is great to be able to compare prices and let them deliver! I would suggest being careful to watch the expiration dates on the sugar free sodas. They seem to have a lot shorter exp. date than regular, and we've had them go completely flat and nasty on us before when we caught a good sale and stocked up. Congrats on the wonderful feeling of looking at a well stocked pantry! Just subbed.

[@TheQueensCabinet]

I think the person who invented the pantry delivery service should get the Noble Peace Prize LOL That is good to know on the soda. Hugs Shelby

[@celiakneisley3188]

Oh my gosh!! I have so enjoyed living vicariously through you. I wish one day to do just that... Truly loved this video.. 😁

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thank you Celia!

[@indigoblue4791]

I'd love to see you cooking some of the delicious meals you mention in this video. You must have a full table come dinner time!!! I love that feeling when the pantry and freezer is full. 💖

[@TheQueensCabinet]

Thanks. I agree it is a great feeling. :D Shelby

[@Coffeeandkiddos]

Did you ever consider buying a half a cow or a half a pig?

[@85jjp]

Oh I sleep so well when my pantry and freezers are well stocked- you must sleep amazing!!! 😂

[@rochelleknight9432]

Thanks for the hauls so helpful more than you know budget wise and all need help with menu planning for a single person, I'm using my second bedroom for a pantry my apartment kitchen does not come with a pantry. I like to be prepared and I don't like to go to the store all the time so I grocery shop online. Thanks girl for the ideas.
