HUGE STOCK UP GROCERY HAUL for My Family of 5 // Aldi & Walmart Favorites

I avoided the grocery store for several days after Thanksgiving break, but it was time to restock the kitchen AND pick up a few holiday favorites from Walmart and Aldi! I'm working on lots of cooking videos this month, so I had to pick up some ingredients for those as well!

I just went to Aldi and got butter for $2.99 and milk for $3.05. Getting groceries is so stressful BUT God has been and will always be faithful. I'm so thankful for your channel I've learned so much. Your a blessing.😋

You know I think it’s awesome how you put the disclaimer about Santa and stockings and explained it like that. I have some little ears sleeping on the couch since he’s not feeling well and I’m glad I don’t need to try to explain that! Also loved the extras on the haul today! I wish my Aldi was closer

I'm the oldest of 8 kids and learned to cook "in bulk". Even after 30 years of marriage, I never really learned to downsize my cooking, even when it was just my husband and I. And now that it's just me, it's even worse. I've learned to just plan to freeze at least half of every dish I make. The bonus: having homemade food in my freezer for those days I just don't feel like cooking for just myself, which is way more often than I like to admit.

Your reaction to egg prices made me laugh, for some reason it's the eggs that puts me over the edge as well! My 14 year old said I'm not allowed to talk about eggs anymore lol!

I like how you are realistic. You have become my new favorite. Thank you. 32 with 3 kids on a low income budget. You help me big time.

It is crazy how expensive everything is and I'm with you on the price of eggs.

I love watching massive hauls like this! I don’t shop this way because I like to shop the sales and clearance items at the store each week, so they tend to be smaller hauls, but I save a lot of money that way.
Also I’m missing all my ALDI favorites 😢. Maybe one day I’ll live near an ALDI again.

I love your sweet spirit. I get frustrated sometimes when I hear people like yourself feel you have to reiterate that this is a “special” haul or explain how good your kid is that she deserves an advent calendar just because. Don’t explain that. Just buy for your kids and yourself and enjoy your moment.

Wonderfully thoughtful gift for your mom! The downsizing cooking struggle is real! I'm down to just me, still cooking for 5, so I wind up eating the same leftovers for 4 or 5 days! Gets a bit boring as you might imagine!🤣🤣🤣

My 7 year old loves watching these grocery hauls with me-thank you for your Santa explanation with the stockings! :) also, got to love extra holiday shopping. I let my kids pick a treat or two out when I take them to the store around Xmas and realized last year they talk about how much they love December and picking out special treats. Good memories and worth it to me to save and splurge!

Please do a cooking for 2 video. I would love to see what recipes you picked for your mom and dad.

[mfigueroa]

Appreciate you mentioning to keep calm and not to panic. It’s hard these days and I appreciate your positivity during these trying times.

Congratulations to Ruthie and Brick looks like he's grown 5 inches. Hope your holidays are great

[amylockard]

You got some great deals on meat! I always feel
Like it’s hitting the jackpot when there’s a 50 percent off meat mark down at the store.

Love seeing a US grocery haul that does not use a ton of plastic bags and recycles old ones ❤️👏 great video!

[MomNTraining]

You are so kind Mindy. I thought that to myself several times in today’s video: talking about the gift to your mom, talking about why you bought stocking stuffers. Have a wonderful holiday season Mindy!

[emmadickey]

It's so interesting looking at what's jumped up in terms of price for different regions. I've seen butter for $6, but I can still find eggs for around $2.50.

PaneraBread Sips subscription sister here! Definitely well worth the the money for Sips while working in the Big Apple. Love that PaneraBread has Almondmilk! Used to get coffee from 7 Eleven until owner stopped offering milk alternatives bc of “cost”, so I started going to PaneraBread and much cheaper with Sip club. So out to the “no more milk alternatives “ 7 Eleven owner, you’re helping me save so much moola. Thank you ! 🙌👍

Eggs at my Aldi shot up to $4.62 a dozen! Thankfully Sam's Club (next door to Aldi!) had eggs for $2.99 doz! (who knew that would be good news???) I also had $59 of 'Sam's Cash' - that's a huge help!

[carmarasmussen]

Perfect timing! Just finished a Christine video, time for Mindy! 😁
