- Опубліковано 10 чер 2024
- FRUGAL LIVING video is here! The cost of living and the price of food has increased so much that many people use a food bank or food pantry to make ends meet. The food pantry is a great resource to obtain food and household supplies. There is no need to go hungry when there are great resources out there for everyone to use, if you qualify. I encourage you to apply to your local food pantry or food bank if you need help with groceries. It's also a great place to meet new people in the community. If you do not qualify for the food pantry or the food bank then please check out your local churches as that could be another option to get help.
FRUGAL LIVING FOOD PANTRY HAUL 2024!
Food Haul & Food Pantry Hauls Are Such A Blessing To Be Able To Have
There is no shame in going to a Food Pantry, a Food Bank or a local church for help with groceries. The cost of food and the cost of living is high. If you have low-income, lower income or no income then the food pantry may be a great option for you! Inflation prices are rapidly increasing, so more people are using their community resources and programs than ever before. Using your local community resources to help offset the cost of food can help you stretch your paycheck or retirement funds further. Keep in mind that sometimes the food has gone bad. There are times I have received items from the food pantry that were spoiled. Sometimes the food is very out of date and not suitable. Please check the best by dates! If you receive spoiled items, then I'm sure it was an accident. Food banks and food pantries move a lot of inventory and there are times when the food has turned. They have a lot of food that comes through and they're not perfect. Volunteers help rotate and shelf products at the food pantry. Just keep your eye out for best by dates to make sure you are getting the best quality items you can find!
Frugal Living - Food Haul
I live a Frugal Lifestyle. I shop sales and squirrel away supplies for winter. I am mindful to stock up on everyday items to save money in the long run so I can pay for daily living expenses like electricity. Every purchase I make is a financial investment in my future. It could be a bottle of water or a can of beans. Part of my frugal living lifestyle is using my local food pantry and shopping at thrift stores. Each organization has their own rules and if you qualify, you become a consumer to their program so please follow their rules to maintain a good relationship with your food pantry or food bank. I still have bills like everyone else and I budget according to my finances. Although I am considered financially poor or low-income, I do not feel poor. I eat well.

HOW TO GET FOOD BANK HELP?
Contact your local churches or you can ask the county. There is nothing wrong for wondering how to get food bank help. Each county has a social services department that can direct you to food pantry resources in your area.
WHAT FOOD DO YOU GET FROM A FOOD BANK?
All types! I get all types of food from the food bank from unknown brands to name brands. Each shopping trip is different. I also get a lot of seasonal vegetables to cook with. Some food pantries offer staple items like beans and lentils, other food banks may even offer organic food.
HOW DOES A FOOD PANTRY WORK?
Every Food Bank and Food Pantry has their own set of rules, so make sure to call and speak with staff that can guide you to apply. Some go by how much money you make (income guidelines).
FOOD PANTRY NEAR ME TO DROP OFF FOOD?
The best way to find a location near you is to contact your local churches, google search it or contact social services.
HOW TO QUALIFY FOR FOOD BANK?
They go by your income.
FOOD PANTRY MEALS ARE SUCH A BLESSING!

I would to if I had all that good food
Wonderful video! 💛
Thank you so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
I remember when I was a child, the postal service had the nerve to raise the cost of a postage stamp to the high price of seven cents each. I thought my grandma was going to have a stroke over the outrageous prices! I remember when the most expensive cereal Frosted Flakes was 89 cents since most weeks we could only afford the 49 cent box of corn flakes. The last box I bought was almost 7 dollars. Your videos help so many people both in how to put together meals and information about food pantries. Enjoy your weekend.
Thank you so much! I wasn't around when stamps were 7 cents, I can only imagine. I do recall the lower prices for food in the 90's like frosted flakes, those were my "good old days"! It's amazing how cost of living just keeps rising. A lot of folks use the food bank option to help offset the cost of living. It sure is a big help. Have a great night!
Your videos are wonderful.
Stamps were 5¢ in 1963. Candy bars 5 ¢. My favorite treat was a small red box with an Indian headdress picture of salted pumpkin seeds for 3¢. 10 years Old.
@@susieramick7202 Thank you very much! Wow a candy bar and stamps for five cents each, that's a bargain! I'm amazed at the cost of living today. Have a wonderful day!

Teddy & I saw 3 deer last night , I'm going to the food pantry next week at a church . Tomorrow's meal will be catfish and a bowl of fruit 😊
I saw 2 deer last night in early evening! I hope you get some goodies at your food pantry visit. Catfish sounds yummy! Do you cook it outside like on a grill, or in the home?
@@CareFreeLivingChannel I bread it then bake it with slap your momma seasoning . I also going to attempt to make cheesecake 🥰
That fish sounds delicious to me! I love cheesecake!
❤

I love your little home my husband and myself live in a 6 74 house we do have a basement and a garage we love it
Thank you very much! I'm so happy with the updates of re-arranging my furniture. The kitchen island cart is working out well. And the living room feels more spacious than ever! I am sorting through my belongings and it's coming along little by little. I believe small steps can add up to big results. Your home sounds like the perfect size for two!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel yes it is sometimes I wish the kitchen was bigger but it's a lot easier to clean lol
That's a great way to think of it! Smaller Kitchen is easier to clean, perfect!

Thank you very much! I'm so glad you like salads and veggies, too! Sometimes the food pantry has Tofu salads, I may try that one day. I'm happy you found my Channel and enjoy the videos. Have a great night and thanks for being here!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel Thank you for inviting me into your life and home. 💕
Love your food how you mix and match all different combinations of food.
Also love your channel and look forward to all your videos
❤ From a Geordie subscriber (a person from Newcastle Upon Tyne in uk)
I’ve been watching a dvd called The Bible it’s a mini series. It’s really great. It is helping me understand the bible so much
It’s an amazing watch xxx
Thank you so much for watching all the way from the UK! It's fun to put the meals together and use what I get from the food pantry. I want to get a DVD player and when I do, I'll visit the library and find out if they offer the series you mentioned. Many parts of the Bible can be challenging for me to read. I like documentaries to help explain it all! Have a great day!
It's supposed to be really good for your healthcare.
🦋thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching my food pantry haul video! Have a great day!
Looks like what we eat except we always 18:13have watermelon and grapes. Salads are hard to store even in a full sized fridge.
Watermelon and Grapes sound yummy in a salad!
Very happy to see Honey Bunny & her friends and Mr. Turtle.
Everything looks so good. I'm always impressed with your weekly food pantry visits. Very healthy and wonderful meals.
I watch how you do your carb math and still get confused. Could you shoe in a slower version how you figure your carbs out from reading the label please? Do you subtract the sugar and that is the net carb you use?
🐰 ❤😊
Thank you! I enjoy the little friends, too! I will try to share how I calculate carbs in a future video for you. Have a wonderful weekend!
i got you beat - it means i am really old - i remember when stamps were 6 cents. hard to believe, eh? i remember 5 cent hershey bars too. all your salads looked so good. you do a great mix. keep cool as you can - we are 99f today. ugh. have a great week, see you tuesday. give mr. turtle a little pat on the noggin for me, ok?
Hi Karen! 6 cents, that is really something. Amazing how the cost of living just keeps going up. I really enjoy putting together salads, it helps me keep on track with my health goals. I hope you are staying cool and got an AC unit! Mr. Turtle says Hello! Have a great night, Karen!
Good evening Sarah. Glad you were able to get a lot of wonderful food at the pantry. Does the goat cheese have a strong flavor? God bless.
Hi Sara! The goat cheese flavor is mild to me. I enjoyed all the meals. Have a wonderful night, Sara, God Bless You!
Love your channel and didn’t know if you know this since you eat a lot of salads, but a trick I learned is to cut up the lettuce into smaller pieces I use kitchen scissors that way you don’t spend so much time chewing. It makes salad so much easier to eat!
I never thought of that! Thank you for your suggestion, that's a great idea as I do eat a lot of salads. Have a great day!
Hey Sarah. What a great food bank haul this week. They really came though with great stuff for you and everyone who goes there. Love the truffle salted marcona almonds. I get something similar at Trader Joes they are so good and addictive. Also love chobani flips. The key lime pie one is my fave. I haven't had that one so I am excited to hear what you report back. Great find on the supplement. That is probably the only way I ould try it as well at that price point. I look forward to hearing about that as well. And also, I love that they had SO much variety for you this week lots of great nutritional options. Including the bison which is pricey usually. You know I will probably be commenting as I watch but just in case I don't, you and yours have blessed week. Sending love and looking forward to next week's video.
Thank you! Yes, the variety was fantastic. I like the "fancy" foods they offer, it's nice to be able to try things and find out what it's all about! Glad to get the omega-3 supplement. The Marcona Almonds are yummy. The Chobani Flip was good! I'd get it again if they offer it. I hope you have a great day today!
Hi Sarah, nice haul. Food looked great and I hope you enjoyed it. How are you doing with the changes you made in your home last video. Hope you have a great rest of the week.🎉
Thank you! The meals have been wonderful. I love the re-arrangement of furniture. I feel inspired to continue sorting through my belongings and making a "home" for the items I keep! Every step I take to make my trailer better, I am happy with. Have a great day!
Also, you can freeze those yogurts as well and just take them out the day of to thaw or eat them semi frozen like a frozen yogurt. But yes, they are more for dessert for sure.
That's a great idea to freeze the yogurts, thank you!
Hi Sarah! Good haul! Have u ever had Bison before? I heard it’s healthier, but it never tasted it. I always look forward to your shopping days because u are always getting new and different things to try❤😊
Thank you very much! I enjoy getting to try different foods very much. Bison is supposed to be very lean and tasty! Have a great night!
Always fun to see what you get. We just gave some things to a local food pantry today. Tina, Al's wife
Hi Tina! That's great. I'm glad you enjoyed it. The meals were a lot of fun to prepare. Have a good night!
I remember when postcard stamps were 5 or 6 cents, and letters were I think 13.😂
Wow! Those are way more affordable prices for stamps! The cost of living keeps going up for everyday purchases. I wonder what it will cost to mail a letter 5 or 10 years from now!
So funny! I had noticed that you hadnt "scored" your cheese and almond tray for quite some time. But, girl, you hit the mother load of the almonds that you love so much! lol I havent ever tried those and we never have them at mine; I had never even heard of them before you mentioned them. Now I feel like Im missing something! lmao. Stamps are going up AGAIN the first part of July. So if you use them often, I would suggest buying a bunch. They are going up to .75 each!
Wow 75 cents, thank you for letting me know, I better buy some more stamps! I never had a Marcona Almond until the cheese trays. Never had a "flight" cheese tray either until the food pantry. I eat better shopping because of the food pantry! The almonds are soft on the cheese trays but firm when in their own container. Have a wonderful night!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel Look at you bein' all bougie and stuff! lol
Haha! I do feel all fancy pants up in the trailer!
Hi my friend❤ 🎉🎉🎉
Hello! Thank you for watching my food pantry haul video!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel I love your food pantry videos 💕💕💕
I appreciate you letting me know, thank you! I hope my videos help others apply to the food pantry / food bank. It helps so much. Have a wonderful day!
I remember when stamps were 5. Cents 😂
Wow 5 cents! Now that's a deal! Times sure have changed.
Remember when they were five cents and before that I think they were 03 cents a stamp and then they went to five
Wow 3 and 5 cent stamps is a deal! Things sure have changed.
I remember getting a roll of stamps for 30.00 would last a year lol
Hi Lois! It's unbelievable the prices for an "everyday" item like stamps. But gotta have it!
Hello Sarah & Mr. Turtle I had eye surgery this afternoon& can't see to well. How was your week? You have alot of produce at your food pantry.Ours is mostly canned food& dry,like cereal,rice& such. We get 1 or 2 meats.This is hard to see..Glad you have a boyfriend Sarah..Take care& see ya next time.👍🤗💮🦀🐞🌺🦋🌸🐠🐚 .❤🦜🌴
I hope your recovery is underway and all is well! My week is going well, thank you! The produce is a wonderful benefit at the food pantry, I'm so happy they offer salads. Mr. Turtle says Hello! Have a wonderful night and I hope you feel better very soon!
@@CareFreeLivingChannel Thank you honey..🤗
Turtle hi Mr turtle
Mr. Turtle says Hello!
Hi, I really enjoy your channel; I have been meaning to tell you about a kitchen gadget I use, it is an electric mason jar sealer I found on Amazon for about 24.00; It is small, compact; It is USB rechargeable but I have had it about a year and use it daily and the charge lasts months. I can seal my dry goods in the pantry in the jars, and even liquids in the refrigerator; It extends the life of my foods. I thought you would be interested in looking into it, I think it would be so useful for you. I am inspired by your channel. thanks
Thank you for your suggestion! Sounds like a good idea to extend the shelf life! I'll check into it on Amazon. Have a great night!
What's so special about those type of almonds
They're just yummy!
Ant they supposed to be soft
Omega 3 is costly.
Seems to be priced high!
Did you save your avacado seed to start a tree?
That's a great idea, Lois! I heard an avocado seed produces avocados after like 5 or 6 years. I don't know if it's true or not, but I'm patient!
Please stop the sudden close ups. Its killing my eyes. Otherwise nice channel and content.
Thanks so much for watching!
ThTs lot of salad
Yes, I was blessed with a ton of veggies!
Does your boyfriend do your taping for you?
He does a great job helping me film! Thank you for watching my video!
