Nice shopping.Just because a person gets food stamps definitely doesn't mean they dont have struggles with feeding their family,prices are high regardless and being a food stamp recipient doesn't mean one shouldn't budget.

❤Hey Tee, just a little tip, from a single mom… You may have to go to a few stores when you shop. I know everyone is going to say don’t nobody feel like doing all that 😂 However, before I go shopping, I check out all the sales at the stores I typically shop at and write a list for each. This tends to save me from overspending at just one store. You did a great 👍 job on your budget! ❤ I normally shop weekly for certain items to make sure we not wasting food. Food is to high to be having to toss it…Blessings to you and Eli 🙏

(you can use fresh herbs or dried, I usually use dry it's easier, and cheaper.) Then I buy mini individual hummus servings and dip the herbed potatoes in it for a packable lunch , or cut them in half and make parmesan cheese w black pepper potatoes, or a small potato salad, there is so much you can do with them!

Buy icing and ice them. Kids love them. Frugal on the dollar. Chicken breasts are so big usually I slice each one in the length and I’ll make it two breasts. Or take a couple and cut in strips to flour and fry. Saves your dollar again.

If you watch your prices sometimes fresh produce is not the best deal. Buying canned or better yet frozen is often gonna be cheaper and then you don't have all that fresh stuff going bad at the same time so protects against waste. Also gives you something to go on after the perishables are gone and can stretch times between trips. Anytime you can save trips it saves time and money...whether it's gas\fare\delivery, impulse buying. So I was saying...mango and pineapple can be bought frozen which is perfect for smoothies or can thaw what you want to eat at a time. You can buy small amounts of salad stuff for week one and then frozen veggies etc for week two. Root veggies last a long time when you buy them whole. Watch those premade produce items like pico...it is super simple to make and very overpriced pre made. Also watch the convenient packets such as the beans and rice. Those ingredients are so cheap to combine yourself. Lentils are great alternative to beans because they are so much quicker to cook. Also wanted to suggest a rethink on the budget...if you were prepared to spend 200 dollars why didn't you? If that number was comfortable to spend before then maybe think of it as a permission and not a limit. Food doesn't have to be this willy nilly budget item. Figure your bills. Set a number for food that is reasonable in your budget and then spend every cent of it. Get your deals for sure and spend as carefully as you can. But then once you know you have what you need for the week keep going. Look for great sales on things like canned tomatoes, pasta, beans, spices, bouillon cubes, flour, hamburger etc and speeeeeeend your food budget. This will help you build a stockpile of things from sale prices....this is your investment. Apply the idea of reverse meal planning and pantry challenge (lots of videos on these topics). You inventory your house before ever ever going to the store. Write down all your bread and fridge items that are quickest to go bad. And then take some notes of what else you already have. What can you put together using those things? Write down those meal ideas. How many days did you get? Do you have almost everything you need for a few more meals? Write those missing ingredients down. THATS your shopping list. Where will you find those items at the best prices? Go there and get those things. Then (maybe the same trip) look for great sales on pantry staples, versatile cuts of meat that can freeze, and root veggies. You don't need a concrete plan for them in the moment just grab the deal and figure it out the next time you are meal planning. You start a wonderful cycle of having things on hand to cook with and eventually if there is an emergency or if your house is just nice and full of food you can skip a week or shopping for food and use your grocery budget to finance small food related investments...A crockpot. A good knife. A good skillet. A cookbook. A small chest freezer (if you are in a small space there are freezers the size of an end table. Park that thing by the couch and put a lamp on top.) Nice canisters. A canning pot. Kombucha or sourdough jars. Etc. now you have a way to do more with cheaper food. I wish you all the best! This is not a lecture it is info lovingly given. Use what works for you.
@lethiapage4767
2 ай бұрын
Also forgot to add. Meal planning does not have to be concrete calendar plan. It's as simple as knowing what you have and what you can make with it then following through to make things you have decided you will make. So if you have a crazy week keep meal plan simple, switch things around day to day for what makes sense that day, and what sounds good. Also don't cook more difficult things without making extra to freeze or use for lunches. Annnnd don't cook if you have leftovers. Build in a night each week where you clear the fridge. Eat pot luck style, everyone picks some leftover that they want, oooor find a way to use things such as cleaning out the produce drawer by making a soup.

You did very well young lady. I don't know if you make anything homemade but I am just going to let you know that you can make the Pico de Gallo with some of those items you already bought and many use that money towards something else next time. (tomatoes, onion, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, lime) Also to help save money again. Those chicken bones, if you don't let them touch your mouth, you can use them to make yourself some homemade chicken broth if you wanted too. I save mine in a ziplock freezer bag and once it is full I will make me some and use it to make some kind of chicken soup or use it in making some rice. Anything to help make those pennies stretch. Also look up how to make your own seasonings too. It is so much cheaper to do it yourself than buy them from the store over and over again. And don't forget to hit up those food pantries once in a while. They can help out too. Keep doing a great job and I love your budgeting skills. ♥

I would not have bought most of that. I just spent $170 at Walmart and $100 at HEB (A local store) and got 6 lbs of ground turkey for $2 a lb on sale, a 10 lb bag of chicken legs and thighs for $6, enough lunchmeat, cheese and bread for an entire month, enough jelly, mayo, ketchup, marinade, BBQ sauce and dog food for an entire month, enough laundry soap for 6 months, saltine crackers for an entire month, tea and lemon juice for an entire month, 8 packages of muffin mix, 8 lbs of ground beef on sale for $3 a lb, 2 roasts, fried shrimp, liver for my dogs for a month, chicken legs for my dogs for a month, pork ribs, pork sausage and bacon and eggs. That will feed me for an entire month or two, if not longer. And i now have over 30 lbs of meat in my freezer. I do not need to go shopping again until next month. I have sides and Hamburger helper type stuff and canned stuff and pasta and 10 lbs of rice and all that. I buy everything in bulk so i save money. I have enough veggies and sides and canned and dry product to last probably a year or more. I keep an eye on sales and buy that stuff on sale. I have all the prices at my 4 local stores memorized so i buy only the cheapest or sale items between the 4 stores. And eating primarily meat, isn't just healthier for you but it doesn't go bad sitting in the fridge and there's no waste at all ever. It's alot more frugal than you might imagine and fills you up longer so you aren't needing to snack or eat 3 meals a day. I eat one or two meals. All those carbs you are eating are making you hungrier and causing you to spend more money. I can make something like meatloaf with 1 lb turkey and 1 lb beef for about $5 with the sale meat i bought, and eat for 4 or 5 days. I have over 30 lbs of meat. I probably won't need to shop for 2 or 3 months. I can cook a roast and eat for 4 or 5 days.

Chicken wings are over half bone so you’re paying a lot of that money for the Bone. You would get a lot more bang for your buck with chicken thighs. Probably double your amount of protein and meat. But the chicken wings… That was a good price. Will subscribe to your channel.

0:46 Oh my, your grocery haul!!! I LOVE Aldi's because they have the BEST prices compared to Wegmans and Tops grocery stores here in Niagara Falls N.Y. You do have to look at your fruit more closely for spoiled pieces that might be in your strawberries or 🍇 grapes. Have a nice evening! 👋😁 You did very good!! 👋🥰

Do not hesitate to use food box pantries. They often have a over abundance of healthy fresh produce and food that has to be thrown away

That's exactly how you'll save a penny. My sister and I shop around we go from store to store searching for deals food is extremely expensive❤

I’m not trying to be funny but food stamps versus actual money is a huge difference. I used to buy them from people and it made a huge difference in my budget so I can’t really say there’s a struggle bus when you have food stamps not your money that you have to pay all your bills and all of your rent with and all of your car payment with, I can’t agree with that! Thank you for showing how you shopped without food stamps, ma’am good job!

You did good girl!! You got fruits, veggies, meats and treats as well as other stuff to make meals. I agree the eggs were high-they used to be like 88 cents before Covid!! I have tow watch their produce too, but my mil says their ALDIs where she lives has the best produce in her town. If y’all like yogurt their Greek yogurt is better than the expensive brands. I buy their brands and the only things I didn’t like was their peanut butter and ketchup-they both were way too sweet. Y’all are gonna be eating good!!

Good job! Suggestion : always buy loose lemons and limes. They always last longer than the ones in the bag.

I don’t know when you filmed this video but I heard they have a LISTERIA OUTBREAK in the deli meats. I don’t know what all was affected but just a heads up!

I like to buy a whole chicken sometime. Season , roast. Divide up the legs, thighs, wings, I freeze these in portion bags. I talke breasts when cooled and slice with a very sharp knife slices to be my roasted chicken meat for sandwiches. Then I have the legs thighs, wings for more meals already cooked. I take the backs and bag up for more then I boil and have great broth . It’s being frugal with your dollar. I’m a cook and my kitchen is my playground.

Why do people mention not getting foodstamps? You've gotten them in the past though.
