  • With rising prices and higher inflation, we stocked up on the items that were on sale (ends on June 13th) at Costco and Sam's Club.
    Some of the items that we purchased on this trip from Costco and Sam's Club included Ziploc Bags, Finish, Bread, Chobani Flip Greek Yogurt, Totino's Pizza Rolls, Noodle Bowls and more.
    We suggest in stocking up on non perishable items or longer shelf life items that is on sale. Laundry soap, clothing, cleaning supplies like Mr. Clean Magic Eraser or cereal - like Cheerios.

    Here is a tip for storing food in a chest freezer.. I saw a post on You Tube and it helps.. The idea is to use various reusable bags with handles. I bought some on Amazon.. They are lightweight and they are various colors.. I put beef in red, chicken in yellow, pork in blue . I put a sign on the wall that indicates what is in each bag.. So, when I need chicken, I pull out the yellow bag. Or if I need another family member to get beef, I just say "pull out the red bag"... etc. There are tons of ideas from other people on You Tube and this idea works for me.. I bought a new chest freezer this past January on sale at Home Depot 7 cubic ft.. The bag idea works great and I can freeze large items like turkeys, ham, etc,. which is difficult for me in an upright.. I enjoy your videos.. Peg got me :hooked" on those Outshine bars... I LOVE THEM.. .Thanks Peg..

    Some of the food supply companies are being hacked so it disrupts the good chain. I hope we all get what we need to feed our families. Thank you for keeping us informed.

    You can freeze eggs
    I take and separate the egg whites and yolks into a lightly greased ice tray. Once frozen, I put into ziplock bags.Then all you have to do is take out what you need , when u need it

    We just got rid of our chest freezer and bought a upright freezer. We didn’t like the chest at all....what a pain to dig for the food, and yes, you forget about food at the bottom. Much happier with the upright and easier to organize.

    When freezing the eggs, do not freeze them in the shell...Just crack each egg into an ice tray and freeze then after frozen you can put them into a ziplock bag or other freezer safe container. (they are good for up to 1 yr)

    you can freeze milk if it has some fat in it. Skim milk will not freeze well as whole milk or 2% milk freezes much better be sure to shake it up when defrosted

    The best change was replacing our old chest freezer with an upright freezer. We have a shelf for each meat type ie Pork ,Chicken, Beef, then boxed items ie frozen pizza and usually a turkey in the bottom!

      Only if you use a second card. They track how many of each item you typically buy. If the computer can see that you’ve already purchased the maximum number of an item, you can’t buy more for at least a couple of weeks.

    Your ground beef prices at Costco are a 20 cents a pound cheeper than here. I just bought a big pack (just over 6 pounds) at our local grocery store for $3.49 a pound and that's a good price here lately. I am going to cook it up in the Instant Pot and Crock Pots and use for lasagnas and casseroles, then freeze the rest in usable portions.

    Hi Steve and Peg , I have enjoyed watching the videos from across the pond in the UK , I wish our prices were as cheap as in the USA , also you have bigger size products in the US , I have been to America many times and I love America,. When you are walking round Costco and I see Chips Ahoy on the shelves it makes me want some because I always buy them when I am in America, I am like Steve and like my cookies. My friend lives in LA so I am hoping to visit him next year. I find your videos interesting and every time I watch I give you a tick every time. I will enjoy watching more videos , stay safe and let’s hope 2022 we will go got rid of this Covid completely. I love coke and in the stores in the UK it’s £11.00 for 24 cans which works out at $14.97 , Diet Coke at the moment in the stores is on offer for £8.50 which is $11.57 at todays exchange rates.next time I visit Costco I will see what the prices are for coke. Keep up the good work with the videos, take care Paul

The KARMA water has a shelf life of 2 years versus the Kombucha water of a couple of weeks.
      Also I have noticed since I started drinking the KARMA water I no longer have leg cramps thru the night...
