Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 бер 2023
- I often get asked why I shop at Costco so much instead of at the grocery store. I feel like it saves me time and money $$$. So today we are going to put it to the test as I shop at Costco and then compare the prices to Fred Myer, a local grocery store. Thanks for coming along!

Lauren you are the sweetest kindest soul. I’m so sorry people can be so rude and it seems to be getting worse. Hugs and love from us all. So glad there are people like you in the world.
Thank you Melinda, that means a lot to me!
You looked shaken, I wish I could have reached through the screen to give you a hug. Sometimes people can be so rude. You have a wonderful,caring helpful nature don't let it effect you. You always look lovely. Love from Australia 🇦🇺♥️♥️
I know I thought the same to ! People can be so rude sometimes I felt sorry for her she looked like she was about to cry 😢
She has a lovely family Lauren You Mark and Boys are fantastic I just started watching you Coast Guard Alaska fantastic to xxxxx ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Don't take it to heart whatever was said to you Lauren. Unfortunately there are nasty people out there. Stay strong. xx
I’m sorry you had to deal with a miserable person, you are so kind
I’m glad you met that nice family after the rude one, especially since you were only trying to help.
I was upset to see you so distressed following your altercation with another shopper Lauren. You’re always so upbeat, happy & smiling. I hope you’re ok now. Some people huh 🤪?! Carry on being happy you 🥰
You should wait for the kids they love to help you. YOU ARE SO BLESSED.
I wish I could have given you a hug! 🤗 I get shaken from rude encounters too. I admire you for sharing your true feelings with us! I’m so glad you also had a nice encounter. I grew up in Nebraska. A little home state pride for me! I love your channel. I visited Alaska once with my family when I was pretty young, but it still has a special place in my heart. I want to visit again so badly. Your channel makes my desire even stronger! Thank you so much for sharing your life with us!
Love you wish i had you as my sister ❤️
Woohoo you found the frogs!! They are way bigger than I thought! I’m sorry you dealt with a rude customer - that person must be really hurting to take their aggression out on you. Big hugs💕
Yes! You gave me the heads up!!! They were huge and tasty. The boys devoured them.
You did a wonderful job shaking off the negative encounter. People just suck sometimes.
We raised 3 boys and my mom joked wait until they get older she said , they will eat you out of house and home 😂and she was right . They are nonstop eating machines 🥰
Lauren and fellow commentators. I recently learned to shred brussel sprouts like you would cabbage for slaw and you can have it raw in your fav slaw mixture. But my current go to is shred them and fry or bake in the oven with oil (or butter) onion (and or garlic leek, shallots) and your favorite herbs and spices (curried is fun) and you can add anything else you like, (I check my fridge for things I want to use up) be creative and taste as it's progressing and do all the adjustments. My nephews enjoy it and they aren't usually fond of veggies hahaha All the best Jim Oaxaca Mexico
Steam Brussels then slightly squash them with a potato masher, fry some bacon bits or lardons until crispy then add sprouts and stir for a few mins, so yummy xx
I hate that someone was so rude to you, you're the kindest hearted person I know and are always so friendly and approachable. I'm glad you were approached by some very nice followers and that that managed to cheer you up. I'm the same as you I find it throws me so much when something like that happens but I'm glad it didn't ruin your day. I would love to see more meals... I love looking at what you all like to eat for meals and snacks. Sending love to you all from the UK 🇬🇧
You have to do what works for you and the family. Saving time because you have a growing family. I love your family.
I am so sorry you had to deal with rude people, you are such a lovely lady! Try not to let it put you down. :* By the way.... my two cats love to check my grocery haul as well, especially my baby Ollie. The other day I went to the store and bought some sticks snacks for them and left them - unattended - on the table and went to the other room... when I came back to the kitchen I found the snack package munched and half the sticks were gone xD Lesson learned: never leave snacks unattended when the two terrorists...ehm....kitties are around! xD Massive hugs you all of you - including sweet Luna !!! Much love, Debs
Good morning Lauren, I loved your video as always, and I want to say I'm so sorry for the person who was so rude to you. It can make you break down, and I felt that from you and wanted to cry myself. You have so many supporters that love what you and your family bring, so please don't let one person's ignorance bring you down. 💕💕💕 Love and kindness are what you give, and we love you for that ❤🩷❤🩷❤🩷
Lauren you are such a sweetheart. I'm so sorry you had to deal with such a bad encounter. Try not to let it bother you. Love your channel and all you share here!😍
You are so sweet and kind. I am so sorry that someone was rude to you. Thanks for the Costco trip
Good morning from terrace British Columbia Canada its five forty-five am here and just to let you dont listen to the haters they are just bitter and have nothing better to do than make someone elses day bad just keep doing things your way
Lauren your such a sweet person and the person who upset you just Pray for them I'm sure they really needed it and I hope you have a wonderful weekend 🥰🥰🙏🙏
The message in church this morning referred to the love of Jesus. " Love one another as I have loved you". I don't understand why a person is rude when you just tried to help. We all love you here and appreciate the hard work you do😊🙏 I don't shop at Costco because it is just myself to shop for, but I really enjoy coming along with you for the ride!! 👍 Blessings!!💙
Love your videos and I’m so sorry you encountered a rude person it’s sad that you just can’t help some people but your kindness doesn’t go unnoticed to others especially your viewers here on u- tube❤️
I truly think Luna is your kitty cat. She seems to love you.
I don’t know how someone could be rude to you Lauren. It takes all kinds. Just makes you appreciate the good people more. Love your Costco videos!
I am so sorry people can be so rude. You are such a kind person. As far as grocery store prices, it seems Costco in Alaska doesn't mark up items as much as the Kroger does.
Hello Callie! Thanks for being here cheering me along.
That is so cool meeting someone from Nebraska. That is where I grew up.
Awesome! It was so nice to meet Shannon and her kids!
Girl get home, weather advisory.... You are so pretty and kind and caring,🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Lauren you are an amazing women, mother, wife, friend, and my heart just absolutely broke seeing you upset by the rude person in Costco! Know we support you and love you, your heart is so kind!
Thank you Sarah. I appreciate the love and support. You have all built me up today.
Hi Lauren, it wasn't nice seeing you so upset, I'm just glad Everett wasn't with you on this trip, so he didn't have to see you like that, good to see that you're okay though. 🇬🇧
Always enjoy your videos!
Love your videos, please be safe....you did the right thing by walking away 🥰 hugs to you!
I’m so sorry to see you so shaken. Sending hug’s from Scotland. I love watching your videos x
Girl you did great shaking that incident off. Just remember what a kind person you are and that the problem is 100% them and not you. Not sure what happened but her having a bad day and having a sour attitude is something she needs to deal with instead of projecting it on another person. I’ll be honest, I’ve done what she did to you to family members because I’ve been in a bad mood or frustrated. It’s not fair to them and I always go back and apologize. Whatever her problem was it’s never a random person that you meet at a Costco fault. You did a great job moving past it and holding your head high. I’m hoping that person has people praying for them because they clearly are going through something since they need to lash out at others. Have a great day. We all have your back!
Thanks for those great reminders Mary! Have a wonderful week ahead.
When someone is rude to another person, it says a lot about them, and absolutely nothing about the person receiving the snark. Straighten up your crown and keep being the Queen you are!
Enjoyed your content today!
I will say, if you shop the digital deals, weekly specials, and coupons with Kroger (Fred Meyer) you can save a lot of money. I do it through the app and it attaches the coupons to my Kroger card so I don’t have to worry about print coupons. (It doesn’t take your coupon discounts off until everything’s been scanned, so don’t be alarmed if you don’t see it in the running total.) we don’t have a Costco in my town. They’re harder to find in the South. So my shopping choices are Kroger, Aldi, and Walmart.
Another good Costco haul it's so sad that people feel they need to be rude but the nice family at the end turn that around for you and that was great. I would love to see how you guys peel or eat mango I'm a complete mess doing it...
Love your costco trips!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love your Costco videos!!❤️
Enjoyed yall and the grocery haul. 😊❤

Love your shopping hauls. And the way you are with your boys. You take everything with such love and the way you go with the flow. The boys are very lucky to have such wonderful parents. I love all your videos.
Hey Lauren , I recently found your channel and I love it!!! I live in South Carolina in the US we are having temps in the 80s I do not look forward to the summer it gets so hot and very humid I love the cold weather, you have such a precious family, I always look forward to your videos. .. may y'all have a blessed day
Ahhh Lauren. So sorry about your encounter. Your kind heart was shaken. Don’t take it to heart. Even though they were rude, you never know what someone is going through. You just keep being you. Which to me, looks absolutely amazing. ❤
I have never watched your channel, but enjoyed your haul today. I’m in Washington state but lived in Ketchikan as a kid. I subscribed and hope to watch more. Thanks for filming. 😊

Chin up Lauren! Unfortunately there are grumpy folk in the world. Came across your videos while looking for Australian Costco videos.Great how you give information on product and price. Keep on Keeping on ! 🌟
Bless your heart!! How can people be so rude especially when you are trying to help them! I am so sorry they treated you that way💚
You and your family are the sweetest Lauren. It made me cry when someone was rude to you. God bless you .💜
Oh Lauren!!! I am so grateful for your wonderful ❤️ channel! You are a beautiful soul ❤️ and it actually relaxes me to tune in!!! You 🙏 ❤️ have a beautiful family that adores you ❤️ I just love you so very BIG!!! Godspeed!!!
You poor thing you looked so hurt! Sending you a warm hug trough the screen! ❤
Most interesting as always. Thanks Lauren. Because of you I tried that variety of oranges. YesI would buy them again thanks, stay sweet with the nasty ppl. Waving to you from Michigan
Wow, that’s a huge price difference between the 2 stores. Thanks for showing the breakdown, it makes me feel better about my warehouse shopping. Stay warm!
Love you Laureen. Love your choices in clothes ❤ Great prices for clothes
Hi Lauren…..I watch your uploads religiously ❤️ we love you here in Australia!! I’m so sorry you had an encounter with someone unkind…..it can really shake us when people are so rude.
Lots of love.
My favorite UA-cam channel. I live in Virginia and it's so nice to see how life is everywhere else. Stay kind Lauren!
I keep a Sam's Club membership for bulk buying of certain things. I am a single person but was raised in a very large family that required large quantities of food so I was taught to shop big, store in the pantry and always be prepared for emergencies. Also from a farming family so food storage was huge whether freezing, canning, dry goods or store bought meat, produce, fruit, ect. The meat and produce were farm raised by our family as were some of the fruits so processing and preserving it all took time and effort by the whole family. And we all got to enjoy it, whether during family gatherings at the grandparents home or what was sent home with us on harvest day or there after.
I was just about to comment thanking you for how calming I find your grocery shop vlogs are when you mentioned your rude encounter! theres so much negativity in the world, protect your peace and ignore those who spread this bad energy! all us in the comments support and appreciate you!
Your kitty is so pretty.
Good morning 🌞
Wow. Sorry to hear your encounter with that rude person. Glad you shook it off. People should be kinder! Love the video. Milk at my Fred Myers was $3.19 on Saturday. I also prefer the type of carton like the ones from Fred Myers. Hope you have a wonderful blessed week! 😊
Aww Lauren....Im so sorry that happened to you🥺 Unfortunately there are some very ungrateful people out there. Love from Canada🇨🇦❤️ Love all of your videos👍😊
Hi🤠 thank you for sharing this costco video, sending love and good vibes your way. When people are kind and nice to others it is their inner quality 🐬and in the samway when someone is rude it is an expression of their own inner conflict🌼it has nothing to do with the other person🌼. Stay Blessed!!!!!!
Lauren that primal kitchen Buffalo sauce is a staple in my house. It tastes good on wraps and I also like to use it as the sauce on homemade pizzas
So sorry you had to go through that.. was upsetting to see you get so emotional. Don't take it to heart, those sort of people are just unhappy in their lives and take it out on the kindhearted good people like you x
rain jackets look great
I got some of those bear chicken fillets at Costco this past week. They were great.
Loved your video! I just returned from Costco myself. I also find that shopping at Costco is cheaper, but even if some items are more, my time is valuable.
Don't forget to share some of the rotisserie chicken with Ms. Luna. My fur babies are running to the kitchen as soon as I left the lid.
You really should try Kirkland Jelly Bellies. They are addictive.
It's 70 degrees in the Southeast US today. I wish we could get some of that cold. Very little this year, and no snow. The insects are going to be crazy come summer as we didn't have enough cold to kill some off.
Omg what a savings!!! And those gummies, which we don’t have in Illinois, are over $20 at Amazon for that same size.
That’s so sad. When your trying to help. Obviously their problem not yours. Keep smiling you are awesome
I recently discovered how fun UA-cam can be and am obsessed with Costco and stumbled upon your video/page. I saw that you were in Alaska so I had to watch! I live in Palmer. I’ve loved your videos so far- even though I’m a born and raised Alaskan I still really enjoy them and it’s fun seeing you go places I go (like Costco 😂) I LOVE seeing Luna! Huge cat lover 😊 I have a boy who looks very similar to her and always has to inspect grocery hauls as well! Anyway, I just wanted to say hi from a fellow Alaskan!
Hello Alaska neighbor! UA-cam is a blast. Make sure to say hello if you ever see me talking to my camera at Costco!
You are amazing Lauren! ❤
Thank you so much!! I’m so grateful for this community!
I cannot understand why people are so rude. You are so kind and giving. They must have something awful going on in there lives to lash out at others . but that certainly doesn't make it right.b you are a blessing to us !
Hi Lauren I loved that thankyou. I'd love to do a shop at aldi so you could see price difference . But I wouldn't know how to edit lol xx
I am so sorry you were treated so rudely. You seem to be a very kind person. I love your cat Luna. We have Max our cat that we inherited from my daddy and our sweet baby girl a 17 yr old shih tzu. Fun video again♥🇨🇦
Lauren can't believe someone was rude to you, it's upsetting for us because you are such a kind and giving soul. The Prime drink is on sale here for 15 euro a bottle!!
The Albanese frogs are awesome. My son loves them. We live 15 minutes away from the Albanese factory and store so we are spoiled to be able to get them fresh!
Good morning Lauren and Mark and family and thank you for sharing your beautiful day 🌞 Lauren there's alot of rude people in the world
Time is one resource you can never get back, spend it eisely. It's great you are aware of that and manage the dollar vs the time accirdingly. Mom introduced me to your channel and I have been enjoying it immensely. Thank you for sharing. Love that I saw Monat in your self care routine video. 💛💛💛
Hello! Thank you so much for being here! Time is precious
You are awesome don't let them get to you.
Miss Lauren...I'm so sorry that you had a bad experience with someone you were trying to help. 💖🙏🏻💖🙏🏻💖
Your house is so huge I love it
Hi Laura have a wonderful day and stay safe. I'm sorry you ran into people like that. There are weirdos everywhere. You looked shaken up wish I could of given you a hug. 🌹 Hi Luna our bag inspector 🐈😺 the frog candy reminded me of something Harry Potter would eat 😆 😁
I’m so sorry you had to deal with a rude customer. It is hard to let it go. One out of 20 can ruin your day. Hugs❤️
Lauren I found your channel and I love it
Hi Pamela! We are so happy to have you here!
Yeah you are saving a lot. I personally don't like going there though. To many people you can't fine items or thay move them same where else's and you all ways walk out with things you never put on your grocery list. Oh and weekend in Ottawa you spend 15 mins trying to fine a parking spot.. Great video love your Channel❤️
