WE BOUGHT & TRIED EVERY LUNCH MEAL DEAL WE COULD FIND!

Hey FreeGang 💚Who here loves a lunch time meal deal?? 💚

[@airspeed_alive]

Boots for me, idk those sandwiches hit different 😋

[@tammiemiller8272]

Thanks for sharing this, because if you have little time for a quick and healthy meal 🥘 this would definitely help thanks again and Just Keep Rising 💚☝🏽

[@AbidaS0301]

Wow my faverouite channal family 👪 freedom family meals deals ❤😊❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉lov u guys keep it up ..ajoy and pleasure to watch always keep safe take care 🙂 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@twister98]

Boots was the first store to do Meal deals

[@kirstyr2354]

The salad bar in morrisons is included in the meal deal there as a main x

[@caymenhammond2904]

Meal deals can be from Tesco Sainsbury's Asda Waitrose Morrisons Poundland Marks and Spencers Coffee shops (Costa, Starbucks, Caffe Nero)

[@MeinirHughes-vr6vh]

Loved this video was so interesting to see the choices out there as I love a meal deal myself! The stand out winner for me was Sainsbury’s just for that freshly squeezed OJ alone!!

[@catherineclark2949]

Really enjoyed this haul. Being Coeliac I have noticed the different choices in the different shops. It's a shame about M & S not joining in with a meal deal xx

[@dizzycowuk]

Great video guys. One thing I've noticed about veggie/vegan fast food is more often than not it's a spicy option. Kinda frustrating if you don't like spice

[@lucy..2998]

Just spotted a sandwich you could try in Aldi don't think part of a meal deal but at £1.99 not bad it is a vegan festive feast looked good. You could maybe do a video of it - would be interesting to see what you all thought about it thanks

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks for letting us know! We're interested to try it soon! 😊

[@jacquelinemoore7839]

I went into Greggs before i turned vegan grabbed a sandwich and all there was in the sandwich was lettuce. Went straight back in there said anything you forgot to put in there. There was a packet of bar b que lentil crisps beside the popworks (boots) they are my favourite. Lentil crisps go in every vegan sandwich. May be you could do a "will it crisp" sandwich.❤ Tesco do a plant chef hoisin sandwich really good and i mean REALLY good mmmmm again one of my favourites.

[@beckscroft18]

Wow, I don't generally do meal deals but for work the onion bhaji meal looked amazing as did the Salad 💚💚💚

[@airspeed_alive]

Here's an idea, guys. What about comparing the £12 dine in for 2 deals. I'm not sure about vegan options, though, so you might need to check. M&S, Waitrose, Sainsbury's, Tesco do them. Also great vid!

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks for the suggestion, this sounds great! We'll have to look into what options they have

[@lululane3437]

Hi guys , I have been watching your videos for a long time and really enjoy , especially Katie because she has taught me how to shop and cook on a very tight budget and the meals can still be delicious, so im hugely grateful to you all and all the time and effort you put into making these videos for us, and because of you guys I have recently became fully vegan

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Lulu, thank you for your comment and your kind words. We're really happy to hear that our videos have had a positive impact on you - that's why we do videos!!! 😊 And it's amazing to hear that you've decided to go vegan, that will make such a difference 💚

[@cheyennestar9105]

I love Morrisons for a meal deal, you can get a salad bar box and a snack and drink !! I stuff my salad box upppp

[@nataliebriggs1340]

Good bargains on the meal deals 😊

[@FamilyFreedom]

Very good bargains 😊

[@nataliebriggs1340]

👍 @FamilyFreedom 👍 yeah 👍

[@paulinemccoll8169]

I think at least here in Scotland, boots was the first meal deal I ever seen , that was in the eighties way before Greg’s, Tesco and Morrisons ❤️

[@RooHay-r3i]

You can also get the hot costa machine drinks in the meal deals at a lot of places x

[@zoelander2848]

I love the tescos meal deal i always get the cheese and tomato pasta pot eggs as side and orange juice or coke for drink

[@jacobmeade1574]

Commenting live but not live from my house in Surrey! I read a comment the other day, that criticised your videos where you spend a lot of money. I thoroughly disagree with that comment. I do enjoy your budget videos however I really enjoy the videos where there is no budget, as a person on a low income I cannot afford to do this, but when I do splurge on an expensive item or a food product, having seen you review them makes it easier to know I’m not going to regret my purchase. Rather than spending money on something that looks good and then not enjoying it. Keep up the good work family freedom and most importantly just keep rising ❤❤❤❤

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks so much for your comment and feedback Jacob, it is very much appreciated 🙏

[@nix6784]

Great video guys.. just 2 let you know in morrisons the salad 🥗 bar is in the meal deal which also includes onion bajis falafel etc not just salad its also labeled well what is vegan 😊

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks for letting us know! 😊

[@chloe.b014]

hey family freedom 👋 I really enjoyed watching this video who doesn't love a meal deal! the one you brought from waitrose looks the nicest 😋

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thank you so much Chloe 🤗 Yes that Meal deal from Waitrose wam delicious 😋

[@kimnapier8387]

I'm so impressed by your kombucha drink prices and your Naked juice drinks. I buy kombucha at Walmart, which is the cheapest grocery store and I pay 4$ for 1. I can't afford to drink it often but wish I could. ❤

[@maria-k3g9u]

The Morrisons salad bar meal deal is a great offer if yours do it. £3.50 a medium build your own salad (and i stuff that thing full!) drink and snack

[@FamilyFreedom]

Ah no we must have missed this! Thanks for letting us know Rosie. We'll make sure to check this out next time! 😃

Shoutout Vicky Lou

[@tonycasey3183]

Meal deals are a really good way of getting an easy lunch without breaking the bank. The cynic in me says, "If they can sell the combos at half the standard price, the standard prices are at least 100% overpriced."

[@valtaylor6453]

Did you know with Morriston you can also get a salad from salad bar great option

[@YourFavouritePigeon]

Surprised you didn't know boots did them, pretty sure they were the first place to do a meal deal

[@tracyclark9208]

Love watching you makes me day ❤xx

We love to hear that Tracy. Thank you for watching 😊

[@mxfolkard]

Love this!! I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a meal deal from a supermarket and I’ve never really like sandwiches or pastas but you guys seemed to get some yummy foods. I think boots did a very nice meal, the naan looked tasty #freegang #livebutnotlive #justkeeprising 💚

Yes meal deals save money if we have the loyalty card/app from the retailer. Unfortunately Lidl & Aldi don't have meal deals. Another awesome video Bob, JoJo and Katie (didn't see Katie in the stores). Lots of good vegan meal deal options in stores (with the exception of M&S). Love 🥰 the video and love 💕 all Family Freedom Gang from 🌧️ Scotland.

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks David! You're right about Aldi and Lidl, it is unfortunate that they don't do the meal deals too. It would be interesting to see what the total price is for their 'grab n go' items though 😊

Hi family, freedom can’t wait to watch this video I was just wondering, is there a way to purchase an online order to see the prices of each item in the store online? Hope you can reply to this

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey, thanks for your comment 🙏 We don't think that you can purchase these items online, you would have to check each site to see. It's possible that they could be included as part of a grocery shop from certain supermarkets. We know that on Tesco for example you can at least see the individual prices 👍😊

[@nanabear85]

Not judging just wondering do you allow JoJo to drink Trip drinks, as they aren't recommended for kids, pregnant women and people with certain health conditions.

I think it must be because of the Cbd. But no Bob had the Trip drink. JoJo can decide if he wants those types of drinks when he is older 💚

Very true. I think the meal deal appeal to convenience of grabbing food on the go, when perhaps you don't have the time to buy the ingredients and make your own 😊

[@JLO72]

Waitress is not fair compared to the other stores also had £5 meal deals so you can't compare a £3 deal for a £5 deals. I think you need to go back and do £5 deals only.
