WHOLE FOOD SHOP WITH ME & GROCERY HAUL 2024 | WAS IT TOO EXPENSIVE???

Rubicon pastries are delicious. The company also hires the formally incarcerated for a second chance. 👍🏾

[@theshoppingmomdotcom]

Oh I love that about the company! What a great idea. The cupcakes really are delicious. 🤗🤗

I discovered you off a previous year's easter basket video and have been enjoying your videos ever since. These shop with me style videos are great. Nice to see what others are buying. Whole Foods is such a nice shopping experience but oh my the prices!

[@theshoppingmomdotcom]

Aww that makes me so happy! Thank you for being here. I love Whole Foods but it’s getting harder to justify a full grocery haul for a family of 4. They still have amazing finds though. 🤗

I love Whole Foods but it does get expensive the dips and fruit take the budget before we even check out. I haven’t tried any beauty products but looking for more natural body soaps

[@diane007]

Very nice shopping dear !! You make me hungry..and i like that place so much !! ❤

[@theshoppingmomdotcom]

Hehehe! I get hungry editing these videos. 😆🥰

My closest food store is Whole Foods so I tend to go here more often. Your store seems amazing 🥰

[@theshoppingmomdotcom]

I used to be in the same situation and loved it at the time. When I lived in NYC. 🤗

Hi Penny 😊

[@Suebearish]

Have you shopped at Aldi before? They sell Driscoll berries for much less

[@theshoppingmomdotcom]

Nooo, I wish. It’s too far from me unfortunately. 😥

[@jeanettenfreeland1408]

Hey Jeanette I am in Whole Foods right now

[@theshoppingmomdotcom]

Haha omg!! That’s so funny! Happy shopping!!

I understand Whole Foods is expensive, but I think it offers great alternatives for the unhealthy foods we usually buy at regular grocery stores. So it's not fair to compare prices to other brands that include a bunch of harmful stuff in their ingredient lists. It’s important to watch what we eat.

[@theshoppingmomdotcom]

My local major market sells many of those same brands for an average of $1-$2 cheaper. I’m comparing apples to apples. No pun intended. For the items that are exclusive to health food stores, knock yourself out and splurge on those things. BUT there is literally no point in buying Almond Breeze for $4.19 at WF when I can get it for $3.19 at the local market. Let’s be clear - Many large supermarkets sell those same exact brands. The markup is getting pretty high for such a large chain. Most of us do our best to feed our families healthy while maximizing our food budget.

[@Madison_Maddie61]

Do you think that we could ever get a cooking vlog from you?

[@theshoppingmomdotcom]

Ohhh that would be fun. I’d have to get myself set up for that. I’d love to do it sometime. 🤗

Plans to outer space and the Bezos/Sanchez life style are spendy. Whole Foods has always been pricey, but the quality has always been there, so I didn’t mind spending more, but I’ve chosen not to spend my money there since Bezos took over. Have also heard that the work environment has gone downhill, but then Amazon is notorious for not treating their employees humanely.

[@theshoppingmomdotcom]

Hahaha, yes! That’s so funny! Outer space trips ARE spendy! 😆😆 I will agree with you on that. The Amazon take over has really changed the Whole Foods dynamic. It’s deceiving because you think you’re getting good deals with Prime. It’s all an illusion lol.
