Tampons & pads. It is cotton shortage because there is no fertilizer. Farmers in Texas are letting there cotton go to seed because it is too expensive to water & fertilize.
@@mariaolker Nope. In stores, Ive found a addictive for litter box thats baking soda and salt. We've being using for about 4-5 months now and we deep clean twice a month
Getting one can of each kind of chili is a good idea because that’s how I found out my husband does not like certain brands! That way I only ended up getting extra cans of the ones we like!
Peanut butter and honey we had growing up, I gave it it my children and now grandchildren. I do wish Sam’s club would come to Australia like Costco did. Sam’s club looks awesome as an Aussie watching on. I have been recently diagnosed as diabetic and recently researched about basmati rice. So thank you Kimmy for recognising those with insulin issues. Wonderful upload I enjoy watching the difference in prices between our countries. We are experiencing a lot of food shortages currently. Crazy vegetable prices so pleased I have a vegetable garden that is producing enough for what we need.
Yes! Make sure that you have plenty of water! Electrolyte beverages are good to keep on hand, too, if you do a lot of outdoor work in the heat. The hot weather isn't going away, so take care! The Tostitos cheese dip is good to have around to use in cooking. I have used it in my Chicken Spaghetti as well as Broccoli Cheese Soup instead of Velveeta... gives it an extra layer of flavor and saves me from using up my Rotel. I recently bought a small charcoal grill, so I have been stocking up on charcoal. I wish I had the space to store more. On my next trip to Sam's (this week, hopefully) I will look for those GAP pants. They look comfortable.
Grilled spam is really good. Its only meat, water and spices, no artificial anything. We use the milk jug water bottles, never had one leak ever. As long as they are not stored directly on cement, your good to go. We do change out the water every 2 years in our gallon containers. Did not know that about Basmati rice, thank you.
Snack size ziplock or reusable bags are fantastic for portions. Also, you can store excess portions in the freezer to extend the life of them. Just throwing it out there.
You may already know this. But I have learned that spraying my fruits (blueberries, strawberries, grapes, etc. pretty much any fruit that you eat outer the skin) with equal parts of vinegar & water and letting them sit for 10-12 minutes, rinsing them really well, laying them on paper towels to air dry completely then put them back in their original washed and dried containers they last for at least 2 weeks longer than normal. Also, I purchased 2 different sizes of the deck boxes 2 years ago & I absolutely LOVE them. Caught them on sale, but seeing how well they have held up with our very hot long summers here in Bama, I would’ve paid full price for them. They are a definite must have if you have a pool, great storage for pool toys, chair cushions, and lots of extras. We use the bigger box to store our foldable patio chairs for winter.
This is off topic but, your weight loss is so apparent in this video - you look wonderful!! It is so nice to see the happy, bubbly Kimmie again. I feel like the last couple of years have been a bit of a struggle for you with the moves and changes you have had. You are a lovely young woman and I have enjoyed your channel for many years!!
I recently switched to reusable pads and oh boy am I glad I did if this occurs in the UK! I've always been a pad person but I struggle with the whole 'get dry before the bathroom resembles a murder scene' thing (I'm autistic and I struggle enough with showering from a sensory perspective without adding aunt flow into the mix) so I've always bought really cheap tampons and worn one whilst showering until I'm ready to put my underwear on, but that's not exactly economical to wear a tampon for 30 minutes and then throw it out; then I found a Swedish company called "Imse and Vimse" who make reusable nursing pads, period pads, reusable baby wipes, 'wet bags', cotton handkerchiefs, panty liners, period underwear, something called 'inter-labial' pads that I think are meant to help with discharge and 'gushes', reusable cotton rounds, 'liners' for reusable diapers/ nappies (I don't have kids but my understanding they're meant to be for catching 💩) and REUSABLE TAMPONS. You literally roll them up, insert them and when they're soiled wash them without fabric softener so they're perfect for what I need a tampon to do and come in several pretty designs and in 'mini', 'regular' and 'super' absorbencies like disposable ones. Being reusable, they don't have applicators which doesn't bother me, but by my understanding most US tampons have applicators so it might be a bit of a learning curve for some, but once you get the hang of it you have tampons for life. They obviously might be a bit tricky in a water shortage but otherwise you're set for however long they take to be totally unusable (probably 10 years or more) and work out way cheaper overall, and if there is a shortage you won't have to pay whatever absurd prices retailers will inflate the price of tampons and other period products to. Ever tried 'Soda Bread'? It's an Irish 'quick bread' that uses baking soda as opposed to yeast as a rising agent. I live in Northern Ireland which is 'officially' part of the UK but shares a land mass with Ireland so we get most of the Irish foods and therefore can get 'soda bread flour' in our supermarkets, but you can make your own by adding a teaspoon of baking soda and a teaspoon of baking powder to every 100g of all purpose flour. If you use whole-wheat flour you can make 'wheaten' bread; which is a sweeter whole-wheat version of soda bread or you can add dried and candied fruit into it to create 'fruit soda' or 'barnbraic' (pronounced 'barn- brack') Barnbraic is traditionally round whilst fruit soda isn't but it's basically the same thing sand it tastes amazing as a breakfast bread with butter, jam/ jelly or nutella on it, as does wheaten. 'Soda' bread doesn't last as long fresh as standard bread but freezes amazingly so it would be a good recipe to have in a food storage arsenal for if you run out of yeast or there's a shortage, and its a good bread for serving with soups and stews since it's not traditionally made in a loaf shape. You could make it like a sandwich loaf but I've never seen anyone actually do that. Might I suggest a recipe that can be made meat free to try out? I live in Belfast not far from the old 'Harland and Wolff' shipyard (which built the Titanic) and in the 1920's and 1930's some of the 'fish and chip' shops (or as we call them, 'chippy's') came up with a cheap, hot and filling way to feed the shipyard workers. They combined sausage meat with mashed potato and herbs and spices, shaped it into a patty, dipped them in batter and fried them to create ' Belfast pasties' (pronounced 'past-ees') served them with chips (what the US calls 'fries'), which we call a 'pastie supper' (in Northern Irish slang, a 'supper' is something served with chips, such as fish and chips being called a 'fish supper') or in a particularly large bread roll which was created by some local bakeries specifically to house these pasties which later got the name 'Belfast Bap' ('Bap' being the name in our part of the world for a bread roll) A good one is the size of a 'quarter pounder'. They're a staple in Northern Irish Chippys and many make them without the sausage meat as well so they'd work well as a 'meat free' meal option served like a burger or with fries.
Thank you for sharing this information. I found it very interesting. Thankfully I have been in menopause for awhile so I don't have the issue of dealing with period product shortages. But I do like to use a panty liner so some of those reusable products may just be what I need!
The Members Mark toilet paper is WAY more expensive than the POM. You get 45 rolls of POM toilet paper (435 sheets) in a case for $25 and the Members Mark is $21.78 for 235 sheets! The POM rolls are almost DOUBLE the MM and is just as good! Save yourself tons of money by purchasing the POM instead!
we have the bench... we put it in the front of the house and that's where delivery drives drop our packages so they aren't sitting out asking to be stolen. :)
Hi - 2 vegetable recipes for you. INSTANT POT VEGGIES - Cut up whatever vegetables you want or need to use up (heartier stuff - potatoes, brocolli, carrots, onions). Add 1 cup water - cook 4 minutes. Season how you want or turn into soup with more water and bouillion. My favorite is add a can of tomato soup, coconut milk and curry powder or your favorite curry sauce. STOVETOP COLESLAW STIR FRY - Saute vegetables you like (try cooking baked potatoes in microwave for 6 minutes while sauteeing then chop up). Add potatoes into fry pan a few min before sauteed veggies done. Add coleslaw mix (no dressing) into pan and let wilt. Season however you want - yoshida always works well.
Yes, I have read and heard to expect a shortage of tampons and pads due to shortage of materials used to make/package them. I'm way past needing them, but every couple of months, when I see a sale, I buy some to donate. The only brand I could find (and not on sale) this weekend was Tampax Sport. There were several brands of pads, but they, like everything else, have gone up in price.
Happy Father's day Derek! Happy Sunday Kimmy! Thank you for this video. Great as always. I wanted to share some tips on storage. First on baking soda I'm not an avid baker but I do use a cup or more in my laundry which is often. I bought the huge Utz cheesballs and reused the large tub as my storage on the BS and keep it on top of my dryer. I have a 1 cup measuring cup inside it. I have my vinegar next to it as well. 2nd I use an empty PineSol bottle with flip open lid as a 2nd bottle with vinegar and added essential oil to add as my softener in wash. 3rd I store my beans and rice in a new, never reused, 30 pound rolling pet food storage container for easy moving. I clean all containers out with hot water, Dawn, and rinse with vinegar before adding food. Just wanted to give you and others these tid bits. Blessings from Texas 💐 🙏 ✨️
Love watching your shopping trips! I'm in California so my prices are always higher, but its interesting to compare. Also - just a note about the canned chicken - I bought s 6 pack a couple weeks ago, the 12.5 oz can.... and it seemed like a good price when I compared it fresh/frozen chicken ... BUT - each can only has FIVE ounces of chicken - the rest is water... i think it great for food storage, but not for everyday use!
Kimmy, You are looking great. You look much less swollen. Hope your allergies get better soon -- mine too! Great video. I appreciate your interest in insulin issues.
I've started reducing meat in foods. I use to use 2lb beef in homemade lasagna. Now I use 1.25 ish to 1.5. I make a hamburger steak out of the left overs and food save and freeze. Eventually I end up with a meal for 4. We eat 1 thigh, not 2, etc. It helps.
Looking forward to your price book to track my shopping, a must need here, I use a notebook now. Love eating pistachios and have not seen the individual package yet at our Sam"s Club but when I do, I will be getting some. Yes I heard on TV news that a shortest on Tampon was coming or is here now so went out to buy some for my adult daughter and DIL, but call to see which ones they used first. What a mess we are in, and glad I have been watching you and have learned to build a long term pantry. I just shutter to think where my household would be now if I have not started a long term pantry from watching you. So a big THANK YOU. Had no idea about the water so from now on I will buy the water that way. Which last week we were with out water for 3 day from something happening at the water facility and getting approved from the health dept to start using it again. Enjoy your lake trip and Graceland this summer. I have a friend that is a true Elvis lover LOL everything is Elvis in her house. Wish Mr. Tootles Happy Fathers Day. You and your family Stay Safe till the next time
Just got a Sam's Membership yesterday with the $8 sale I've been putting it off bc the Stores over an HR for me but glad I waited and got the deal..found some goodies yesterday..Happy Father's Day to all the Dads 👋
You might want to consider the sams plus plan for the free shipping. Its saved us a few times when I knew I couldn't make the drive out to my sams club.
@@laurab8547 nope $8 and that's it. Then ran this Sale before the Super Bowl I Jan I think, it's just to get new people in the door I guess. It's good till the 27th I believe..but same as the base membership card
If u get chili without beans, you get more meat in the can. So if you are trying to stock up on canned meat, it's a good way to get more meat in your pantry. 😉
Thank you for the basmati rice tip, I just bought the bag of jasmine rice this past weekend. Definitely going back for basmati rice. Buying the rest of my canned goods from Aldi's.
You will love Graceland. I too am an Elvis fan. Have never loved another singer or "group" as much as I adore Elvis. We went to a wonderful show in Las Vegas a few years ago and them impersonator was very good. I was lucky enough to have got a scarf. I never got to see him live, but my sister and brother in law did and took lots of pictures for me.
I have and still use the yeast and it is great! No complaints on short term rise or long term rise breads!!! Will buy again and freeze and share with family.
You know I love Sam’s and Costco‘s I shop at them both. But I have a problem with any store and this includes Kroger‘s where they give people a discount if you’re savvy enough to do the phone apps to get the scan and go or the coupons of the week that type of thing when there’s people like me either one doesn’t know how to do that or two doesn’t have the time to figure it out or three would just like to be able to have a discount like everybody else without jumping through hoops.
I got those bacon crumbles for Christmas Eve last year. I have a bacon and ranch cheese ball I make that has bacon inside and outside of it. It's a big hit for one of our friends when we have our holiday party every year. It's the first thing he goes to as soon as he gets there and the last he eats before he leaves. So I started making two, one for the party and one for him as a gift to take home. He told me people have to beg him to share it with them!
Thanks for the info about the different carb/glycemic differences in the rice. I am going to Sams today and I had jasmine rice on my list. I will pick up the Basmati instead!
The milk jug gallon water leaks because the plastic they are using now is meant to start breaking down (landfill issues) soon. It gets tiny porous areas you can't see. I did research because mine kept leaking.
Another really fab deal on diapers is Aldi's! If you have one in your area you can get a box of chlorine free diapers for a very good price. My little granson can't wear most diaper brands due to the chemicals most use in them. Just a heads up! The Aldi brand diapers are also very absorbant. 👍😉
Yes! Aldi saved my life with diapers and wipee's when I had my twins in 2008. It was right when Aldi showed up in my area and diapers were one third of the price. Big packs of wipes were like $1.29 at that time. It was a Godsend!
Hi Kimmy! I love this video! ❤️ We live right across the street from our Sam's Club, literally, and we mostly have the same great sales that you have there, which is awesome!!
You’re going to love Graceland! We just got back from our summer vacation to Memphis and Nashville and Graceland was on the last of places to visit. We spent a good 3 hrs there and we’re not huge Elvis fans… so plan on spending a LONG time there looking at all the exhibits, totally worth the price!
They've been a little weird with sales lately, or I just noticed since I havent been paying that close attention until recently. They will have a flyer that they mail out that will be good for about a month, then they will switch to online only deals for about a month, then it seems like there will be a week or two of nothing great(by nothing great I mean on cheap things, i dont buy the big ticket things) and then the cycle starts over. We are right now, in the week or two of nothing great. I expect an ad in another week or two to start for 4of july holiday.
You are doing a lot of things I already do like with having an extra pack of tp on hand. I LOVE peanut butter powder because I add it to my homemade hot chocolate. It tastes nowhere near as good without it!
Love comparing, I’m from Sydney Australia and our lettuce, regular iceberg lettuce is currently $10.99, yes you have read correctly ELEVEN dollars each, it’s so bad that some fast food restaurants eg: Oporto and KFC have started putting a lettuce/cabbage mixture on their burgers.
I bought the yeast from Sam's and it is so much better than the yeast I've gotten from the grocery...used it last week for pizza and I swear it was the best I've made in awhile.
It was good to see you Kimmy! The otter pops were on sale for 7.88 not too long ago. Still waiting for the next sale, I wonder if it starts after the online one ends on the 4th. We've only tried MM rice, but maybe we'll try another next time. I need to start using Costco's quinoa with ground beef to stretch it out.
Kimmy, do your research on Memphis before you go. It is a really cool city but pretty crime ridden. Graceland is in a bad part of town. I live in north Mississippi and have lived in memphis too. Good southern people and good food. Be smart and have a good time.
We are going to get boxes sorted through some we just moved into our house a few months ago so we can put in shelves for food storage because we really don't have space otherwise
Kim, I hope you see this . We all can see the weight loss you have achieved , great job girl. Can you share with us a video what you're doing or not doing lol. PLEASE @Shes in her Apron
Thank you. I won't be making a video on it. I hace PCOS. It creates insulin resistance issues. I'm' on an ADHD med that helps with insulin resistance, so it's helping me shed the weight.
Tampons & pads. It is cotton shortage because there is no fertilizer. Farmers in Texas are letting there cotton go to seed because it is too expensive to water & fertilize.
Baking soda is great on cat litters too. Mix 1 cup to a litter (a bit more, depending of the size) and will help with the smell and keep more dry too
And the baking soda doesn't bother the cats?
@@mariaolker Nope. In stores, Ive found a addictive for litter box thats baking soda and salt. We've being using for about 4-5 months now and we deep clean twice a month
I'm a sucker for Sam's seasoning aisle too! We love the Fry Day seasoning for frozen fries or when I just cut up potatoes in to wedges
I need to try that one. Seems like I get a new one each trip to try or store.
Getting one can of each kind of chili is a good idea because that’s how I found out my husband does not like certain brands! That way I only ended up getting extra cans of the ones we like!

That huge deck box is the best! It holds all of out cushions (sectional couch, 4 dining chairs and 3 other seats worth of cushions)!

Individually packed nuts are soooo convenient & they stay fresh longer too!😋
Miranda! Seriously just finished visiting your channel. You’re killing it too my friend. Much love to all creators !!!
I eat huge cans of them too quickly so they can’t go bad. 😅
Snack size ziplock or reusable bags are fantastic for portions. Also, you can store excess portions in the freezer to extend the life of them. Just throwing it out there.
That same bacon here is $25 in our Sam's. BTW you can portion it out and vacuum seal it inside a mason jar with an oxygen absorber.
I love the crumbled bacon from Sam’s. Once it’s opened I put 1 cup each into sandwich baggies and freeze them in a gallon freezer bag.
Awesome! Thank you!
Great idea. Thanks for the info
Great idea !
I haven't been to Sam's Club in few yrs. Thx for updates. You have great info and vast knowledge and experience. i appreciate you !☺
Awesome! Thank you!

I bet the sour cream seasoning would be great on popcorn, especially if you have picton kernels in your food storage.
Oh sorry, I am 5 hour's away from a Costco. I go 1s a year. Love it

You might want to consider the sams plus plan for the free shipping. Its saved us a few times when I knew I couldn't make the drive out to my sams club.
Was it really only $8 or did they give you $37 worth of coupons and you still have to pay the $45 membership fee?
@@laurab8547 nope $8 and that's it. Then ran this Sale before the Super Bowl I Jan I think, it's just to get new people in the door I guess. It's good till the 27th I believe..but same as the base membership card
Happy Father’s Day to Mr. Tootles!🎉🥳
Thank you!!❤️
LOVE the Sam’s Club bacon bits.
If u get chili without beans, you get more meat in the can. So if you are trying to stock up on canned meat, it's a good way to get more meat in your pantry. 😉
Great tip!
Thank you for the basmati rice tip, I just bought the bag of jasmine rice this past weekend. Definitely going back for basmati rice. Buying the rest of my canned goods from Aldi's.
Our pets HEADS ARE FALLING OFF! lol I keep thinking this too!!
Today I stocked up on water ( as great prices where I am right now), cooking oil , olive oil, ketchup, soup packets.
I use sour cream and onion in a dip we serve with pretzels, crackers.... sour cream, cream cheese, sugar, cheddar cheese powder, sour cream powder....
You will love Graceland. I too am an Elvis fan. Have never loved another singer or "group" as much as I adore Elvis. We went to a wonderful show in Las Vegas a few years ago and them impersonator was very good. I was lucky enough to have got a scarf. I never got to see him live, but my sister and brother in law did and took lots of pictures for me.
I have and still use the yeast and it is great! No complaints on short term rise or long term rise breads!!! Will buy again and freeze and share with family.
I just tried Spam for the very first time (I’m 63 years old)! So delicious!!
You know I love Sam’s and Costco‘s I shop at them both. But I have a problem with any store and this includes Kroger‘s where they give people a discount if you’re savvy enough to do the phone apps to get the scan and go or the coupons of the week that type of thing when there’s people like me either one doesn’t know how to do that or two doesn’t have the time to figure it out or three would just like to be able to have a discount like everybody else without jumping through hoops.
The sour cream powder would be a great popcorn topper, it would be good in soups and casseroles too!
oh yeah with that bacon topper
I got those bacon crumbles for Christmas Eve last year. I have a bacon and ranch cheese ball I make that has bacon inside and outside of it. It's a big hit for one of our friends when we have our holiday party every year. It's the first thing he goes to as soon as he gets there and the last he eats before he leaves. So I started making two, one for the party and one for him as a gift to take home. He told me people have to beg him to share it with them!
I bet they’re good cooked in eggs or an omelette.
Thanks for the info about the different carb/glycemic differences in the rice. I am going to Sams today and I had jasmine rice on my list. I will pick up the Basmati instead!
JASMINE IS FROM THAILAND....🙃🤑
Sam's allergy spray is great! Their generic meds work well for me.
I love love love Scan and go!
The milk jug gallon water leaks because the plastic they are using now is meant to start breaking down (landfill issues) soon. It gets tiny porous areas you can't see. I did research because mine kept leaking.
You are looking so happy and healthy! Fun video.
Pause Video - OMG! I'm going to get that Sour Cream & Onion spice ... air fryer veggies, potato salad for sure, and on popcorn!
Resume Video!
😂Awesome!!
You could add the powder to sour cream and have sour cream and onion dip.
Good Morning family 🌅 and Happy Sunday here watching 😊
Thank you for posting. I never noticed the extra deals on scan and go. I need yo to do that.
Thank you for giving me ideas for food storage. We have been doing it for over a yr now.. and it's has help us alot this past yr.
Yes the shopper cooler bags are fantastic!!!!
add the sour cream sprinkle to popcorn ..awsome
Great value green beans and corn was 50 cents for a long time. Jumped to 54 cents but recently jumped to 58 cents in Utah.
Looking forward to more stock the pantry and freezer meals, or bulk cooking. I don’t know what you’ve been doing, but you look great.
Thank you! Restocking the pantry and cooking with it, is coming Thursday.
Another really fab deal on diapers is Aldi's! If you have one in your area you can get a box of chlorine free diapers for a very good price. My little granson can't wear most diaper brands due to the chemicals most use in them. Just a heads up! The Aldi brand diapers are also very absorbant. 👍😉
Yes!! All I use! So much cheaper
Chlorine stinks! It can’t be healthy.
Yes! Aldi saved my life with diapers and wipee's when I had my twins in 2008. It was right when Aldi showed up in my area and diapers were one third of the price. Big packs of wipes were like $1.29 at that time. It was a Godsend!
Yes🤗to budget meals, can't wait 👍!
Love the scan and go app. Makes shopping so much easier.
Happy Father's Day to derek enjoy your sunday family
Skinny Minnie! Please do a what I eat in a day! Looking lovelier in each video!
I cube my spam and put it vegetable soup .. Yummy ! I'm from Georgia so we love spam 😁
Hi Kimmy! I love this video! ❤️ We live right across the street from our Sam's Club, literally, and we mostly have the same great sales that you have there, which is awesome!!
Hello.. it’s a cotton shortage .. not tampons soo everything with cotton !!! Love your videos 🌸❤️thank you !
Awesome haul. Thanks for sharing.
I didn't know that about the rice! I am insulin resistant and have a brother who is a diabetic. Thank you for sharing that.
Thanks for your tips and helps for long term storage. Thanks. This is my first time seeing you thanks. Can’t wait to see you again.
Love the haul we have the same issues with food rises and the fuel crisis. love to all xxx
The 30 bags if lays, doritos etc is such a food deal. The name brand snacks are getting more expensive here in the UK
I love the app scan and go! I went last week and about 4 checkouts with about 5 people each line I was able to walk right passed its fantastic.
It’s the best!!
Thank you for the video & the Sam's Club trip!!
I didn’t know you had a freeze dryer until you said freeze dry your garlic cloves I love mine
You’re going to love Graceland! We just got back from our summer vacation to Memphis and Nashville and Graceland was on the last of places to visit. We spent a good 3 hrs there and we’re not huge Elvis fans… so plan on spending a LONG time there looking at all the exhibits, totally worth the price!
Awesome! We're excited to go!
I just want to say Hello ❤️ I love your new hair cut, and thank you for sharing your Sam’s Club shop with me
Thank you!
Large Family Love just used the sour cream and onion seasoning in bread
Yes girl on the tampons! Glad we have been doing this stocking up for years little by little!
Menstral. Cup.
I have always been a firm believer of buy 2 boxes instead of one, but never go overboard
Yes menstrual cups and panties save you from shortages like this.
Tip: sour cream & onion seasoning. (buy 2, since the 1st won't last long) is great anything done in an air fryer.
I bought a bag of pistachios and vacuum sealed individual snack sized packages
They've been a little weird with sales lately, or I just noticed since I havent been paying that close attention until recently. They will have a flyer that they mail out that will be good for about a month, then they will switch to online only deals for about a month, then it seems like there will be a week or two of nothing great(by nothing great I mean on cheap things, i dont buy the big ticket things) and then the cycle starts over. We are right now, in the week or two of nothing great. I expect an ad in another week or two to start for 4of july holiday.
We use sour cream and onion powder on our popcorn and in mashed potatoes
It's good in sour cream for a dip too
This was Exactly the Indo Video I Needed. We just moved to Utah from Texas & this is Great walk about of Sam's. THANKS 😊 and I just subscribed 😀
The sour cream and onion powder is delicious on popcorn
You are doing a lot of things I already do like with having an extra pack of tp on hand. I LOVE peanut butter powder because I add it to my homemade hot chocolate. It tastes nowhere near as good without it!
I would be really interested in a price book!! ❤️❤️❤️
Sour cream and onion zucchini chips.... Yummy!
Love comparing, I’m from Sydney Australia and our lettuce, regular iceberg lettuce is currently $10.99, yes you have read correctly ELEVEN dollars each, it’s so bad that some fast food restaurants eg: Oporto and KFC have started putting a lettuce/cabbage mixture on their burgers.
Yes well when most of your supply is wiped out by weather, price will go up. That price isn't due to inflation but rather flooding.
Thank you, looking forward to it
I bought the yeast from Sam's and it is so much better than the yeast I've gotten from the grocery...used it last week for pizza and I swear it was the best I've made in awhile.
I love that style yeast!
It was good to see you Kimmy! The otter pops were on sale for 7.88 not too long ago. Still waiting for the next sale, I wonder if it starts after the online one ends on the 4th. We've only tried MM rice, but maybe we'll try another next time. I need to start using Costco's quinoa with ground beef to stretch it out.
Kimmy, do your research on Memphis before you go. It is a really cool city but pretty crime ridden. Graceland is in a bad part of town. I live in north Mississippi and have lived in memphis too. Good southern people and good food. Be smart and have a good time.
Check your expiration dates, they are getting a lot of product in that has been sitting for a while so they are pricing it to move it.
Good morning Kimmy! Love from Winnipeg 🇨🇦
Good Morning!!
I want that deck bench box to!
I have been to graceland 4 times it is wonderful
That’s awesome!!!!
wherever you are you all have some cool food items I have never seen
We are going to get boxes sorted through some we just moved into our house a few months ago so we can put in shelves for food storage because we really don't have space otherwise
Bought the cooler bag yesterday and love it
I bought some of those last year. I think they were $1 cheaper then. These prices…….
I didn’t know they now offer discount when you scan! Very cool!
The Keebler mint fudge cookies, chocolate chip cookie or the fudge stripes are great for making s’mores.
Kim, I hope you see this . We all can see the weight loss you have achieved , great job girl. Can you share with us a video what you're doing or not doing lol. PLEASE @Shes in her Apron
Thank you. I won't be making a video on it. I hace PCOS. It creates insulin resistance issues. I'm' on an ADHD med that helps with insulin resistance, so it's helping me shed the weight.
@@shesinherapron I'm sorry , I was rude and never thought it could be a medical related issue. I'm sorry Kim. You do look amazing and glowing tho.
