Massive Costco Haul 2022 | Grocery Haul for Rural Alaska With Prices
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2022
- Hi, welcome (back). We live in Rural Alaska and travel to Juneau once or twice a year for dry groceries. This shop coincided with our new babies and Chelsea's 6 week check up. We also took a truck back to Kake on the ferry, so we had to fill it up! Please subscribe and check out more of our life in Rural Alaska.

I’ll never complain about my grocery shopping trip to town again. I’m only 20-25 minutes from town so I can mine done in 2-3 hours which includes a lunch break. Never been on a 2 day grocery shopping trip before. Your bonus is you get to live in Alaska I don’t
We do love living in Alaska!
I live in New Zealand and I'm literally five minutes drive from the few supermarkets we have here. I always find it exhausting although I'm terminally ill but even so I'm appreciative of the convenience.
I feel this I moved from Dallas to a town of 32 people in Colorado where the nearest grocery store is an hour and 40 minutes away
These young people are great souls....I enjoyed the grocery trip....packed his truck bed ... somebody put credits on his "man card".
I could maybe guess at how much of some things we would need for a year, but when it comes to snacks like chips, even the super size bags you get at Costco would go pretty quickly. I applaud your ability and willingness to live frugally in order to finance these trips. I am sure it takes a great deal of meal planning and substitutions to stretch the food as far as possible. Thanks for taking us along on your trip.
I am glad you get it. Some people act like they never eat snacks. We definitely have to stretch them out. Eventually we will run out. If we travel, thats usually something we buy when we are out of town.
Great video
You guys are an inspiration to us that live with everyday conveniences
I love how you fed your gorgeous wee boy in the middle of the supermarket. I firmly believe that babies needs always come first no matter the typical judgemental things people feel they can express. This is the first video I've watched from your channel and I'm excited to watch your other videos. Xx
Its the law that you can feed your child in public places. But not everyone approves, but if they don’t like it then don’t stare at it!
Thank you, I was not as comfortable with my first. This time I feel more secure in my motherhood. Welcome to our UA-cam Family! Thanks for joining our adventures.
@@LewisFamilyVlogAlaska thank you for the welcome, having watched more of your videos I can see what amazing parents you both are. Xx
That was one impressive shopping trip. Joe's packing skills are second to none. I love the new truck, you can fit so much in it. It great that you managed to get a lot of your shopping, you can now face the winter fully stocked. Marlin is cuteness overload just like Bonnie. Have a wonderful and fun filled week 💞
We are happy to be stocked back up.
I think I have watched this blog 5 times. Love the music you put with video. Costco! My favorite place.
Oh wow, that’s awesome!
I really like to watch your grocery hauls, I would dislike having to put it all away. Kids look happy and healthy and I ‘ll bet BonBon is going to love her swingset. Happy Birthday Bonnie! Take care Lewis fam.
Having lived in Fairbanks this brought back memories. Mad skills on packing! Blessings to your beautiful family!
I am always amazed at your ability to organize your grocery haul!
The baby is handsome. Congratulations! Love watching your shopping hauls.
Congratulations on your new baby 👶...I love your costco vlogs first time watching in a while
That was a really good shopping trip. Thanks for sharing 👍 🥰
I am impressed with the way the truck bed was so well packed. Good job Joe!
💗💗💗💗💗 happy to see your faces ❤️❤️❤️❤️ happy to see you all out and about... Marlin don't know if i spelled his name correctly i sorry...he is growing so fast...give Bonnie and baby hugs as well as you guys... 💙💙💙💙💗💗💗💗💗
Congratulations on your new bundle of joy 😊😊
Missed seeing your guys vlogs on here haven't seen any on you tube for so long ,hope all family are safe and well . Congrats on your new baby ,hope bonnie is loving being a big sister and hope she has a blessed 3rd birthday 🎉🎉🎉
Oh no, hopefully you can get caught up! Glad you found us again.
Great job organizing in the truck bed!
I love you guys thank you for sharing ♥️🤗🙏
Good Afternoon and Happy Saturday love your haul ❤️❤️❤️ thanks for sharing ❤️
Great haul. I realize you have to get that much a year or so but , you did good packing your pick up. Amazing.
Bonnie is getting so big..Bon Bon loves her veggies ,,,oh she will love her present
He is adorable. Congratulations!!
Marlin seems like a very chill and happy little dude! ☺️
I love when you do these stock ups!!
You guys are amazing. I can’t imagine doing all of that especially with a newborn. He is so precious. And wishing Bonnie a very happy3rd Birthday 🥳
Thank you!
You make it look so easy shopping for 6months or a year, must take some planning and saving, I couldn’t imagine having to do it. My supermarket is only five mins down the road. During the pandemic I did a lot of bulk buying so I reduced the amount of time going out, I now have lots of stock in, not much space to keep it, but it’s a comfort knowing I will not run out soon. You always look happy while you do your massive shop, I’ve noticed that shopping in the smaller towns in Alaska is very expensive compared to where you shop. Really enjoyed seeing your Happy shopping trip. Xxx
Space is definitely a consideration when doing these big shopping trips. People always say we didn’t buy enough, but we only have so much room. We don’t have a basement to put things, like a lot of bulk buyers.
Wow,that was a great shop😂 your son is gorgeous 🎉
I LOVE your grocery haul videos 😍
Well this was my first video of yours and I am so happy I found you guys! Now I have to go binge-watch from the beginning! Beautiful baby boy and Happy Birthday little Bonnie! 🥰💝
Welcome to our UA-cam Family! Have fun watching 🥰
I usually complain about having to go grocery shopping but after watching your trip I'll never complain again.
Gorgeous baby boy!
I have never seen anyone pack as well as you guys. Well done!!!
It looks like you found what you were shopping for!! Lol. Thanks for sharing and stay well. 🙂
GOB. Bless you all. Great job!!! Very well organized. Thank you for sharing.❤️🌻👍🏼
That's GOD, Not GOB!!
It must be a man thing, my husband got so excited over our new water hose too.😂 Babies are growing up and are beautiful ❤️ Happy birthday Miss Bonnie..I hope you have an awesome day 💚
Haha, Thats great. Thank you.
The baby is so so cute !
Congratulations on your new baby.
Yikes ! Food and other items are sooooo expensive ! You have a Great haul .Loved your vlog!
You all Rocked it 🎉
beautiful baby ❤️all the best to you all
How interesting! The Costco prices were very similar to here in Washington state, but the Fred meyer ones were considerably higher! Thanks for sharing :)
I have also noticed that. Costco seems to be more regular no matter where you shop, but Fred Meyers is way less expensive in Washington.
I can say those of us living in the lower 48 don't understand the amount of planning and saving to do what you do every year to stock and get ready for the winter.. Purchasing the truck getting the shopping done and the getting back home..
What a wonderful family!
Love these hauls so interesting..I am an old lady I couldn’t do it lol ..I go crazy on the chips too ..I love the Hawaiian chips..now I have to go buy some..the truck was a genus idea ,,drive it right home instead of having to go get it ..great idea ,,
Hello from Ohio. New here. Wow a big haul. My family is small. We go shopping 2 or 3 times a month. I'm disabled so I can't do long hauls. You have a beautiful family. Your 3 yr old will love her play set. Enjoyed watching your vlog.
Love these haul videos!
I love the camping on deck!
Everyone ´s situation is different. With the shipping prices of the barge before and the ferry seem quite reasonably priced and efficient.
Even on the mainland, in a Capitol city, I have an annual shipping budget for Amazon prime & weekly local produce delivery.
Aldi has very tasty Organic GF pasta for $2/ lb. Costco no longer carries it. If you have an Aldi in AK or Seattle an annual pasta haul would run about $3-$4 a pound with barge shipping. If that would help you out any. They also have other great GF foods, baking mixes at $3-$4 plus barge, so about $3.50-$5 a box with barge. A Seattle Asian grocery would be great for rice noodles, ramen, and bulk spices. The rice might be less expensive too.
Just if it helps! All the best ❤
Wow! Getting that playset on top, you all must have been great at Tetris!
What a sweet baby boy. I have a new 8 week old granddaughter. Babies are sweet. ❤️
Awe, congratulations!
The baby is absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you ❤️
New to your channel, I really enjoyed your shopping trip. Lots of great food for stocking up. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for this lovely video! And for adding all the prices, I bet, it was a lot of work! You are such a cute family 💕
It was a lot of work! It took forever. I told Joe I much rather work on family vlogs. They are way more fun to edit. :)
@@LewisFamilyVlogAlaska then I'll send an even bigger "Thank you" 😘 You are doing an amazing job!
All I can say is WOW!
These shopping trips seem so fun
Yes!! They are a "BLAST" when you have an Unlimited Budget and Don't have to Watch how much you Spend. Just GRAB What and Any AMOUNT you Want!!
He’s so beautiful!!
May I suggest making brown sugar from scratch? Simply mix with a beater plain white sugar with molasses (1 cup sugar: 1 or 2 tablespoons of molasses). The amount of molasses determines whether you get light or dark brown sugar. Way cheaper than buying brown sugar plus on your large grocery haul you just have to buy bags of sugar along with usually one bottle of molasses. Hope that this works for you, 😉.
Very cool, I had no idea. We will have to find some molasses.
Love that ya'll are still masking
I loved. ☺️☺️☺️ Kisses from Lisbon Portugal 🇵🇹😘💕💕
Congratulations, baby boy is adorable. I’ve been following since your first haul but didn’t get an alert for this one😭. Enjoyed the haul.
Wow! What a trip! Groceries are so expensive in Alaska! I think after all that shopping putting everything away would be a horrible task!
It takes some time thats for sure.
All I can say is wow!
Wow impressive packing! I hope Bonnie loved her swing set and I hope you had help putting it together 😅 Marlin is so sweet 🥰
She loves it, but wants friends to play on it with her. Marlin will be ready in a year or so :)
@@LewisFamilyVlogAlaska oh yes, that's what siblings are for. We have 4 girls, I'm so glad they have each other.
your baby is beautiful. Congratulations.
Beautiful family! What a chore to do that with a newborn. God bless y’all! G’ma Becky. ❤️🤟😘🤗😷
Thank you ❤️
First time. Enjoyed and subscribed. Baby is soooo precious
Welcome to our UA-cam Family!
I'm new to your channel and I'm enjoying watching your videos. I just want to thank you for how respectful you are at breastfeeding. Thank you both for allowing us a glimpse into your life in Alaska.
Hello sweet baby boy..Marlin is so precious…I have been working so much. I haven’t forgot you
I'm so glad it's only a 120 mile round trip to go to Costco for us!!!! Once a month. " just picked up a few things" yesterday...215 dollars, lol.
Thats still a trek!
Ssssoooo precious!!
You are a sweet family. Thanks for sharing. We live in Minnesota and have no idea what prices are or how hard it is to get to a store.
The baby is so adorable and that smile was priceless an angel , husband throwing a kiss to wife how sweet, how long will that load of food last .
This will last around a year.
Found you guys after watching a Somers in Alaska episode. Excited to add another fun Alaska family to my line up!
I'm in TX and also a Ginger 😉😂💜
Yayy, welcome to our UA-cam Family ❤️
Getting caught up with your videos..congratulations on your new baby
Thank you!
The most impressive thing for me is that you are allowed to camp on the ferry deck! I grew up on an island the ferry always had so many rules.
Lol, yep. Sometimes the deck is full of tents. We are usually on for 24 hrs. So its nice to have a little privacy without buying a room.
That's good Terri's skills.
Thank you for sharing, I follow yiu all the time, not just Costco hauls, lol!! Actually enjoy seeing these shopping trips though. Will this take you through the winter except for staples bread, milk etc.. Bonnie will be so excited , that's an amazing gift. Thanks again for sharing!!
This trip should pretty much get us through the winter :)
The Alaska cruises stop in Juneau I did it forty six years ago
You guys are so beautiful! I love the red hair!!!!
Amazing 💥
He is adorable
New subscriber here having been awake since about 3.00am (now almost 6.00am) here in the UK and randomly scrolling through UA-cam when I came across this vlog. Very random even for me but saw all the red hair and decided to watch, lol. I don't see many red heads on UA-cam recommended stuff and hubby and youngest daughter are red heads and we have to stick together!! Had no concept that people have to shop like you do in this video, I moan about my once a week trip to Aldi but will never moan again. I think we have several Costco stores in the UK now but we've never used them, maybe we should as it looks like you can get anything and everything. Anyway, going to watch some of your previous videos to catch up and then I'll understand why grocery shopping is like this for you. Hope your little girl had a lovely 3rd birthday and congratulations on your new baby boy, he is gorgeous 😍
Glad you found us! Have fun watching ❤️
Hello Lewis Family,was browsing you tube and came across your channel 😀, I have subscribed today,you have a BEAUTIFUL FAMILY have a BLESSED DAY, mary from Fla
Yayy! Welcome to our UA-cam Family ❤️
All babies are precious But not all have achieved their full beauty like marlin has!!!
I live in Juneau and do 3 shops at Costco a year, we always end up with way more then we can use lol, but my babies are grown . Surprisingly we buy almost identical items ,except for baby stuff ! Hope to run into your family sometime at Costco or Freddys, my Son works at Search so I'm sure you've seen him. Do you have a garden ? We grow most of our veggies, ,we have 3 freezers,and keep them stocked ! Your family is beautiful, can't wait to see your next video, be blessed!
Thats great. We have probably seen you before :). We do have a garden. Its so fun to grow our own vegetables. We also have 3 chest freezers. One has fish, one has meat, and one has other odds and ends :).
We recently moved and when we got here we asked where the Costco was ... 8 hours away in Winnipeg Manitoba! I was used to going at least twice a week. I haven't been in 10 months. I order online and they have great delivery service, always within a few days we get our order. It is just not the same as shopping in -store as there are a lot of items you can't get on-line. Great video!
Oh man, that would be hard to be so far away.
Where to in Manitoba?
Came to your channel cause of the Costco haul stayed because I fell in love with your family just subscribed 💗😊💗
Awe, welcome to our UA-cam Family!
@@LewisFamilyVlogAlaska thank you 🥰
That should last awhile !! 😀😀
You have a baby boy congratulations
Didn't know you had another baby congratulations on the new little one....
Thank you ❤️
I thought traveling to Tenakee was serious... you guys have this down. Totally impressed! For those that are giving you grief, tell them to travel to a remote city where all things are limited and then they'll appreciate your creativeness and ingenuity to make it last and work! Kudos!
Oh, that is very similar to Kake. It is a hard concept for many people to understand :)
I enjoy you'll video ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
Just come across your channel and had to subscribe ! What a lovely family 👪 ❤️ and my anxiety is through the roof shopping on my own lol so I don't know how you manage it !
Awe, Welcome to our UA-cam Family!
Congratulations the baby is beautiful 😊I saw your husband grab the Kinders seasoning have you tried the buttery onion? Omg! It’s so buttery delicious on everything!!
We have not tried that, we will have to look for it.
You guys are so cute 😆
I love to see other prices. Idk why. Your stuff is like 2 times more than here in Ohio! Things are a little less but could be better Lol
new sub! Your content is awesome. 🎉❤
Didn't know Kake exist! New subscriber here🥰
There are actually a lot of people from Alaska who don’t know Kake exists, so don’t feel bad at all. Welcome to our UA-cam Family!
Enjoyed the video. Not having a basement is like living in an apartment. You can only get so much and get creative with storing your stuff. One day I will have a house with ample!
Its so hard to not have a basement! We turned one of the bedrooms into more storage.
@@LewisFamilyVlogAlaska my closet is storage for non food and long term food that doesn't go bad for about 20 years
I just found you. I wish you could slow down a little so I could make out the items. I love the way you do your vlog. I would watch until the end and wouldn't care how long it took. It is so soothing.
I will try to slow it down next time. Thank you. That means a lot :)
cute baby hes a doll
