WE'RE STOCKING UP!! FAMILY OF 11 - MEGA GROCERY HAUL

[@lisafrancis2491]

We have a regional grocery store that routinely runs the Boston butts for $.99/lb. My husband and my cousin run a small little catering business on the side catering small weddings and other events and they smoke the butts, brisket, ribs and chicken as well as other dishes. So we always stock up when they are on sale.

[@bigtimeblessed]

That's awesome! My husband really wants to do that or possibly have a bbq food truck. I said when we don't have so many littles we can give that a go. 🙂

[@dianeshover1465]

WOW, I’ve heard about tax free WEEKENDS...but never tax free MONTHS🤩🤩 Must be a blessing for everyone in your state!!👍

[@bigtimeblessed]

It definitely is. I had never heard of this either, but so glad to have it. 🙂

[@shopwithjen]

Wow great haul! ❤🎉

[@theresakemp8032]

Hi...I'm a new subscriber and I absolutely LOVE huge grocery hauls...I'm so glad I found your channel. This haul is epic and has lots of variety. Very good job with all of the meat. Thank you for sharing👍💕

[@bigtimeblessed]

Oh yay!! Thank you for watching. We do alot of cooking and eating around here so you should enjoy. 😉

[@ecppce1]

It’s just the hubby and myself and we stock up as much and often as we can. We’ve turned my dining room into a pantry storage. We never use the DR so it works for us. I’m getting ready to stick up on my baking supplies but I will only use Hudson cream flour lol I’m picky on that. You got some good deals.

[@bigtimeblessed]

That's a great idea! I say use what you've got. 🙂 We have definitely had food storage in some odd places over the years, but I'd rather have it than not. Thank you so much for watching. Have a wonderful day! ❤️

Hello there beautiful family! Another great video & haul! Every time I get Great Value milk it doesn't taste right to my hubby & I, it also doesn't seem to last long. I'm talking like not even 4-5 days after getting it! And the expiration date usually isn't even close so we just chose to get Garelick Farms milk. Every so often we'll get the Great Value milk again just to try it & see if it's any different. I enjoy your content so please keep it coming! Thank you for sharing! Sending love & positive vibes from RI 🤗🥰

[@bigtimeblessed]

Thank you so much! ❤️ Wow that's so crazy about your milk. We haven't experienced that so far thankfully. However, if it gets the slightest bit frozen they don't care for it. Mike and I don't drink milk (lactose sensitive) so we wouldn't know. Haha When we lived in Michigan we had goats we milked and we could drink that milk and it was delicious. Have a blessed day! 8

[@wendistevens154]

Great deals! I always enjoy watching your videos. Have you ever seen Ozark Family Homestead? They have a large family & Janice shops a big once a month haul & then each week in between she shops all the sales & buys just the great deals like you were talking about. Have a blessed week!

[@bigtimeblessed]

Thank you! I hadn't heard of her but I just subscribed. I love finding new channels. 🙂 Have a blessed day! ❤️

[@melodypeirce-oneill587]

​​​@@bigtimeblessedJanice & her family are just the sweetest! Today (10-14-23) they are having their Meet & Greet at their church in Missouri! I subscribed to their channel back in March of 2023 when Janice began their channel & it grew so quickly! Another great haul & video from you as always! Thank you for sharing! Sending love & positive vibes from RI 🤗🥰😊

[@barb7014]

You definitely did NOT blow the budget, you invested wisely. I would love to be able to shop Kroger’s sales, sadly no competition in my area. I’m so happy you were able to score such great deals. Thanks for sharing. ❣️

[@bigtimeblessed]

Thank you! I felt like I hit the grocery lottery. 🤣 That's a bummer you don't have the options there. We experienced that while traveling and it definitely affected our budget. Have a blessed day and thanks for watching! 💜

[@karentucker2161]

You have to be careful of the meat. Or the one right by my uncles house in Nashville, Tn. They look old is some of them and other don't have dates on them, esp. the ones on clearance or sales. I was defintitly grissed out when i went there shopping for him and his wife when i went to visit. And they live in a nice area too which is a shame for how the store looked and smelled

[@brendahowell5946]

Keep a milk jug with water in the freezer just in case electric goes off. Learned hard way!!!

[@bigtimeblessed]

I have heard this and definitely need to do it. Thank you!

[@cjhoward409]

My mom taught me that years ago. So glad I did because we’ve lost electricity a few times, but everything stayed frozen 👍🏻

[@karentucker2161]

Or ice packs or a good time to cook and share with neighbers

[@soniab.estacio3008]

Thank you for showing your food ❤ you are truly blessed !

[@bigtimeblessed]

Thank you for watching! We are blessed indeed. ❤️

[@papaapple93]

What a wonderful grocery haul Kym definitely has inspired me the next time I go grocery shopping especially with the portioning out the gallon beverages like with the half tea half lemonade Arnold Palmer. Can’t wait to see more amazing videos on your channel

[@bigtimeblessed]

Awe I'm so happy you enjoyed it. Thank you for being here. 🙂

[@janicehaney1771]

I live in TN also, and i loved not having food tax for 3 months, just wish it was always...It sure made a difference! I love the Grocery Outlets, definitely have alot of good deals...🤗👍💕

[@bigtimeblessed]

I totally agree! I hope to save up for the next time and really use it to our advantage again. It was a blessing. LOVE the outlets. ❤️

[@crazywiththecrawfords1510]

That bacon is a steal of a deal I buy that from the Mennonite store in Greenville, Tn and it’s right at $50 a box

[@bigtimeblessed]

Ooh what is the name of this store? I'd love to go.

[@crazywiththecrawfords1510]

@@bigtimeblessed there’s 2 in the area. Yoders and Troyers. I’d vote for Troyers because they have the amish doughnuts made fresh in the spot. Love to meet up with you sometime and share some things of interest to you. I’m less than 2 hrs from you.

[@sarahp9300]

I will be trying these as well. I am an East Tennessee girl too😊. Love united grocery outlet as well. So many good deals!

[@bigtimeblessed]

Thank you! That would be so fun! ❤️

[@bigtimeblessed]

Yay! We gotta have a get together of us Tennessee gals. 🙂

[@Henleehomestead]

You got some great deals! We have sales tax on food here in Georgia too and it really does add up.

[@bigtimeblessed]

Thank you! Yes it does add up. I don't like it. Haha Habe a blessed day! 🙂

[@samanthashaw8329]

on the bogo at kroger you dont have to get both to get the sale price theyll give you 50% off one instead. also use the paper coupons that kroger sends you i had 65 cents off any kroger 18 pack eggs a few of the, making my eggs 35 cents

[@bigtimeblessed]

Nice! Unfortunately we haven't lived here long enough to start receiving the paper coupons yet. I will have to update my address. Thanks for the tips. 🙂

[@themomvlogger1856]

That is awesome it was tax free! Nice haul!

Thanks. Sam’s have awesome buckets in their bakery Dept free or really cheap CANT remember

[@bigtimeblessed]

Good to know. I'll check that out. Thank you! 🙂

[@donnapomarice5370]

Hello, I can't believe states add sales tax on food. That is ridiculous, okay for non edible items like tissues, paper towels, soap, etc., but food no way!!!! Take advantage of stocking up on what you can while it is tax free! 😀 love watching your videos.

[@sherrycrutchfield2890]

Yes ma'am they add tax o food and it is insane where do you live that they don't charge tax on food I live in VA

Freezer foods will last a long time. The peanut butter and a lot of other foods do have an expiration date. How can anyone use up 36 jars of peanut butter before it expires? Also how many freezers do you have?

[@bigtimeblessed]

We have 9 children. We can easily use a jar of peanut butter a week. I used to buy 40 per year. I keep logs of what we consume and how much to be sure there is little to no waste. Also, peanut butter can be consumed past its expiration date if necessary as long as it isn't rancid. 🙂 We have 3 freezers.

[@marieparks5674]

I only buy the sale items and I stockpile

[@bigtimeblessed]

That's awesome. What are your favorite stores for deals?

[@jessicatounkara8753]

Great Kroger deals.

Why don't you vacuum seal your freezer items sure last longer no freezer burn

[@bigtimeblessed]

I don't have a vacuum sealer or I would. 🙂

[@elizabethteeter6284]

@@bigtimeblessed you mean to tell me that all money you spent on groceries you couldn't afford a cheap vacuum sealer mine only was 35.00 and that's cheap to save on such investments like meat to keep much longer

Lots of stores + outlets to get the bigger quantities that you need for meals etc and save at this time! We have GST of 10% -but not on all food (meats, breads, baking, fruit/veg etc + certain products are GST free) I don’t usually recommend channels to anyone especially the family + mum vlogging space because their are so many controversial issues **Eg. TW: 8passengers, Frankie’s + Jodi Hildebrandt** You might resonate a lot with the Bonell family here in AUS -family of 16 kids (9 still living at home I think) The beautiful thing about you + your channel -value of family first + boundaries around the kids safety + privacy. The kids aren’t the focal point for videos. Building genuine subscribers, authentically and steadily for the long haul 💜💜

[@bigtimeblessed]

I will check them out. I love finding new channels. Thank you for such a sweet compliment. My goal for this channel is to be a Essington and encouragement in any way possible. People always ask how we do it, so I thought why not share? It's been such a blessing to me just getting to know you all. I feel like I have friends everywhere now. ❤️ I hope you have a fantastic week Jade.
