Vlogmas Day 3 | Grocery Tidings We Bring to You and Your Kin

[@rosebud7233]

What Tyler described about having a grocery store buddy that you pass repeatedly in the store over and over again is one of my greatest fears at the grocery store. Is that the difference between an introvert and an extrovert?

[@audrianafreberg5629]

Haha! I was thinking the same thing. I have literally changed up my next isle just to avoid that!

[@mdots05]

I'm an interior designer and when I was in college we briefly studied grocery store design (seems so random but it is SO tediously planned the way it is!). Dairy is one of the most purchased items in households so it is purposely put far from the door because they want you in the stores longer and to have to pass by more aisles/endcaps! I am always yearning for a more efficient grocery store experience where I get my cold stuff last, but alas, I know there is a bigger plan LOL

[@sarah.sarah.sarah.sarah.]

i could watch tyler go to the grocery store every day honestly

[@snoopycoupon]

We need regular "Tyler Shopping at Meijer" vlogs. May I suggest "Welcome to Meijer"?

The onion soup mix is with the bouillon in the store. We use it as a dip. Just add sour cream and use Fritos scoops and makes a great snack

[@roxanneronquillo7688]

[@oliviagoodon4043]

I just want to say that i’ve been watching y’all for years, and I remember one video years and years ago, where Jessica talked about how that you as a family didn’t know where y’all stood religiously. And I remember praying specifically for y’all that you would find your way back to church and to the Lord. And I obviously don’t know the whole situation about where you were or where you are now, but it just makes me so happy hearing Jessica talk about reading the Bible and doing Bible studies. I hope that you are both growing in your relationship with the Lord because that is what I prayed for. 💖💖

[@jenc7614]

I love how you share the kids without sharing every single moment of their lives. This is one of few family vlog channels I feel okay watching still. And I been here for many vlogmass ...my husband works nights ...its hardest this time of year .

[@Susan-Thomas]

Yes! I have waited all day for this to post!!! Isn’t it funny how something can bring such joy to so many? I just text my youngest daughter and told her that Jessie is baking sugar cookies, so being on her game when she comes home next Sunday to spend the holidays with us! I know what we will be watching as we bake and decorate! Love that advent calendar. I started a new tradition this year and have each person in our family an advent calendar that matches their personalities. Sephora and Ulta offered wonderful opportunities for my daughters, while others got brain teasers, candy, chapsticks, manger scene, etc. Each day we spend pix of what we have received. I’m even doing a Disney one in my classroom! They love it! Oh my gosh! That pastry blender for your kitchen aid is fabulous! I use that and then the bread bar to make Maryland Work biscuits. If you have never had these, you do not know what you are missing!!! Definitely an acquired taste, but a love in these parts! I make them and give them as Christmas gifts. We are just as fortunate as you with neighbors we are blessed with. We live in the country, where neighbors are spread thin, however all those around us for miles around are relatives. I’ve never lived away from family and do not know of if I could or would do it. Family is everything. ❤️ Dear Jessie and Tyler, your family feels so much like a part of ours and I’m honored to have you as part of our lives. By the way, I could give you Lipton onion soup mix from my pantry if you were closer! 🤣My mother was a Thursday morning grocery shopper when I was growing up. Memories! ❤I know you posted at one time where you got that sweater with the cut out in it, but cannot find it! Would love to get those for my daughters for Christmas. Back to school tomorrow, after a week off with Covid. 😞 say a prayer! Sorry Tyler, I don’t have the energy back to put all those emojis!!🤣🤣 Love and hugs!!!! Susan in Maryland

[@mindy-mouse]

Anyone else impressed when Tyler picked up three cans in one hand?!? I’m not sure I could manage two!! 😂 and I agree completely with the grocery store route: non-food, back of grocery to front of grocery for me as well.

My grocery store method is produce, which is usually at the front, and I work my way back, finishing in the non grocery goods!

Onion soup mix for "swedish meatballs" in the crockpot is such a delicious meal, and also I put it in like pot roast type meals.

[@betsybabf748]

Shopping: We start at produce section at one side and walk each aisle until the dairy and then the frozen section last.

[@zizzyzoot7033]

Dairy is at the back of grocery stores because that is where the loading docks are, making for a shorter distance when transferring from the trucks to the coolers so products don't spoil.

[@LisyCO]

Elf on a shelf, I mean Tyler on a shelf😂 you guys are a hoot. God bless🎅🎅🎅

[@PlanwithLaken]

Can absolutely relate to the numerous texts from my husband when he goes to the store 😅😅😅

[@spartyfamilyone]

So glad to know my husband is not the only one who texts/calls me when he does the grocery shopping! Usually several times, but that's okay. It's sweet that they want to get the right things and take 2-3 times the amount of time we would have to get them. It's all good. I would do the same at Home Depot. LOL. Not to be sexist, but my husband and I are from an older generation (we are your parents generation) than you and Tyler.

My mom always grocery shopped on Friday too! I went with her when I was younger and when school was out. Always went to 2 stores....a "discount" one for canned & boxed goods, then another for fresh fruit/veg and meat. From what I remember, she worked with a very tight budget, but always made it work :)

[@BeautyandtheBooks76]

Dairy is at the back since it is something people will run into the store to just grab one thing like milk so that way you have to walk through the rest of the store and may grab other things as well.

[@kimjasper5534]

I follow the same grocery store agenda! Start on non grocery side for all toiletries then the back refrigerator section and work our way up to check out. 😊

[@jenniferfulton4505]

Tyler at the grocery store is hilarious! But I always do the back of the store last so I'm not walking around with my dairy and frozen items getting warm in the cart.

[@BethHartSmith]

I thoroughly enjoyed the grocery store banter ❤ My family owned a grocery store in our hometown for over 60 years.. and fun fact the products are placed very strategically to make you circle the entire store to get essentials like milk, produce, bread.. it’s not for any sort of convenience for the customer and it shows! Lol

I will tell you a perfect pot roast secret is a packet of Lipton Onion Soup mix as the only ingredient. Sear the roast in a skillet on all sides to brown then put in crockpot with an entire packet of onion soup on top. 6hrs till it pulls apart. I agonized over doing a perfect pot roast for years, all different kinds of fancy ways but it's really just that simple! An ol' American classic lol. You can roast some potatoes and veggies on the side if you like so they aren't soggy in the crock. Sooo good!

Depends on the store and their floorplan, but I usually start with produce, pantry staples, dairy/refrigerated items, and finish with frozen items. I most often shop Aldi and Trader joes for groceries and get household items from either Amazon or Target, so it's not frequent that I shop household items in the same trip as grocery items.

[@ameesully3673]

Onion soup mix, I use it for roast, beef tips for beef tips and rice, we use it to make dip, just mix it with sour cream and you have a chip dip. We use it for lots of things!!
