I usually buy toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash at the dollar tree. I have a developmentally challenged daughter and she was going through the laundry detergent liquid like crazy. I told her over and over how to measure it out but she just didn’t get it. So I found inexpensive Purex detergent packets on Amazon. I bought two containers because they were on sale. My daughter understands “ use only one per load”. Problem solved. It has saved me so much money.
You have to find the solution that fits you best,then everything clicks into place. It also helps your daughters independence win win.
I use to do a similar thing with laundry and dishwasher detergent. I alway use to buy the cheaper powder but when my husband retired and was at home when I was at work he would put on the washing machine(sometimes with very little in it) and added twice the amount of detergent. He also did the same with the dish washer. When I realised what was happening I changed to the pods which is a measured dose. If I didn’t have time to clear the laundry I use to fill the washing machine and asked him to put it on later in the day. (Thankfully we didn’t have a tumble drier). I also rinsed pots after dinner and loaded in the dishwasher so when he added the breakfast dishes it was a full load. Some times the cheapest item is not always the best buy in your circumstance.
@@patmartin9727Right! At least he is willing to do some chores while you are gone.
Yes, sometimes the most economical option is not the cheapest option. Gotta look at the big picture.
A pump dispenser can help with measuring. Try finding big ones at beauty- or restaurant- supply.
When our new washer was installed the tech instructed us to use 2-3 tablespoons of liquid detergent only, or a plastic child's medicibe cupful. Using as much as the detergent companies want you to can wreck your washer. They don't care about that; they just want you to kerp buying more detergent.
Hope, Dollar General and Family Dollar have a digital $5 off a $25 order every Saturday. You can stack that savings with ad prices as well as their digital coupons or other high value coupons. There are times I’ve left the store with over $50 in merchandise and paid less than $10. It’s a massive stock up deal on laundry, bath tissue, personal care items as well as groceries. Love to see you do a video on that.
I LOVE Dollar General for the Saturday deals
My great-grandmother already had them in the house, Fisherman's Friends has been around for more than one hundred and fifty years. A household name here in Europe:-)
I love those best. Very popular here in NL Canada
Popular in ireland. I don't like the taste but they are effective
Same in New Zealand.
Hope.....please have your friend on, that knows how to get the best deals at Kohl's. I remember you mentioned her, on one of your shows, and you asked the viewers if we would like for you to have her on.......yes, please have her on!! Thank you.
My net worth has gone up from -$123 in June 2023 to +$165 December 2023 thanks to following your tips!
Well done. 👍
Keep going! You can get to that $1000 emergency fund before you know it!
Estate sales I look for everyday items like zip lock bag , garbage bags,can goods,one place said I'm flying home to NY you can have all the can goods !!! My car was squished to the back.Try for bulk items. I bought deodorant that was factory sealed 3 bars. Got a bottle of hugo boss,now my after shower scent.
Fishermen's friend are strong and effective!!
Plan ahead & call manufacturer for printed coupons. Those can be used with in store flyer coupons.
I call it my Home Inventory List that I twice a year stock up my home. Yes, there is a bit of planning. It is something you can adapt quarterly or even monthly depending on how large your family and space constraints. I too have missed something or ran out of something but for the most part having a Home Inventory has helped me save time and money. Great additional tips to save money!
When we got our front loader Speedqueen worked on, the repair man who’s been working on washers over 40 years told me to use no more than one tablespoon of detergent. He said with the high efficiency washers they don’t use a lot of water so you only need a tablespoon or it will leave residue in your clothes because they don’t use a lot of water. I prefer Kirkland brand detergent when it goes on sale. It was also a consumers report best buy!
My father in law owned a laundromat and has the same advice. I like Gain and All Free & Clear (dermatologist recommended) and I get them for sooo cheap!
If you don’t keep a 1 tablespoon spoon in your laundry area, try pouring into a pump bottle and just pump it directly into washer.
Fisherman's Friend RULE!!!!!! they are the best!!!!
Fisherman's Friend is miraculous and definitely worth paying full price when you are feeling dire!
I totally agree. It is almost unbearably strong, but it works so well. We always keep some on hand. I would also recommend having some povidone iodine on hand for a diluted gargle/nasal cleansing solution. Check out Dr. Peter McCullough. Brilliant man.
I started watering down my detergent and split one bottle into two after recommendations like yours! I’m just finishing up the one bottle I bought on October 1!!
Hi brought one big bottle of arm& hammer ⚒️. Liquid and just enough to cover the buttom of the cap. I bought it in may. finish it in November.
I hate the thought of more plastic so I use the Eco Egg for lightly soiled loads and powdered detergent(a tablespoon or two)into heavier soiled loads. I also let the loads soak for around half an hour.

Consider not using plastic storage bags, get reusable silicone bags and avoid the landfill w/ the plastic. The silicone bags come in multiple sizes and are able to be re-washed. Save $$ as they last vs the plastic ones to have to buy again and again. Earth Breeze is a liquidless washing soap sheet vs liquid laundry soap in plastic containers that end you in landfills. The sheets take the place f the liquids. It is only 1 option. You can cut them if you want to use less.
Dollar Tree now sells the reusable bags, for only $1.25.
We for the most part wash, dry, amd re-use our plastic resealable bags. We are also able to put our plastic laundry detergent jugs into recycle.
I've bought these and personally don't enjoy them. They're apain to wash but they're even more of a pain to get to dry nicely. If using for chips/crackers you can use almost indefinitely without a wash. I use one for my bulk looseleaf tea.
@@ashleym.9682 i turn plastic bags inside out then put them on the handle of longer handled kitchen gadgets in tje dish drainer; things like wooden spoons, pancake turners, etc..
Buying super concentrated soaps & cleaners. Making a simple home made all purpose cleaner is great. Save the good stuff for deep cleaning.
I discovered the Dollar Tree store in my nearby town has the detergent I use at a cheaper price and has more quantity when I buy two bottles compared to the one large bottle at my local grocery store. Since I discovered the detergent, I started making comparisons on other products that I normally purchase. Sometimes a person has to do a little math to find a good deal. Glad you're back and hope Larry gets well soon.
I'm really sorry you guys are sick I know what it's like to be down and I just pray for healing for you two and a speedy recovery
Healing prayers for Hope and Larry with your colds ❤ great video ❤
Even though I am a senior and live alone, I still "do the math" on everything. It's a game I very much enjoy. Then I treat myself to something inexpensive as a reward. Win...win
I like buying bulk: paper towels, toilet paper, 5gl. bucket laundry detergent, Dawn 5gl.....etc
Fisherman’s friend is amazing!
I am lucky in that regard, my mom works at a factory that makes laundry detergent and stuff, once a month they can go to a free sale to take home 10 different products. So I never have to buy any of those things.
We use slicone baggies mostly in place of ziploc baggies stretchable covers for dishes instead of tinfoil, vinegar and water to clean sinks instead of store bought cleaners, and less shampoo than before.
Luckily for us, I always find brand new,sealed toothpaste.
I once found probably about 150 rolls of toilet paper in a book bin.sealed.
My area has tons of free book bins,and not only do you find books,but clothes, perfume, makeup,all kinds of stuff.sealed.
I found a case of IVORY soap under a bush outside an estate sale. Removed bad labels and store it in a bucket with lid until it is needed.🤑🤑🤑🤑
Book Bins? What exactly is this?
Feel better soon you 2! Thanks for all you share with us!
We buy dawn dish soap and tide laundry detergent.
We buy Aldi trash bags,the black drawstring ones.or, contractor bags.
We use bleach , dawn and hot water as an all purpose cleaner.works great,and it's cheap,too
No need for hundreds of products all over.
We buy the family sized suave shampoo and conditioner for,for both,at dollar general,$6. Lasts us a good five months,easy
These are some really great tips. Thanks Hope.
Fishermans Friend are the only cough drops I use. They don’t have a syrupy, sweet taste and work great!
Yes! Fisherman’s Friend is the best! It is what we use.
My mom was a firm believer in Fisherman’s Friend cough drops!!! And i know that you are a strong person because those things can nearly walk around on their own they are so stout!!!!! 🤣Hope you both recover quickly!!!! 💗
I’ll have to try fisherman’s friend. We currently use the Ricolla cough drops when they go on sale at Costco. Those work really well too.
Honey and lemon are much more effective than cough drops which are just candy. Vinegar for cleaning, laundry, and cooking does away with all those cleaning/detergent products. Buy some reusable and beeswax-coated fabric to cover leftovers in the fridge - much better than single-use plastic bags. We do use plastic bags but they are reused bread bags. Use just one swipe of deodorant - unless one is a stevedore, lumberjack, or a mom to young kids, one is probably not going to get dirty/sweaty enough to justify slathering it on. (BTW, more deodorant does NOT make one smell less.) Wash clothes less often. Again unless one is a steelworker or a mom, washing clothes after just one use is not necessary and is harder on clothes. Cold water always. Try to wear linen clothes, if possible, too. A natural fabric is better for so many reasons.
I am definitely interested in seeing more about this subject. I have sensitive skin and also other family members as well and buying with this category challenge can be frustrating when trying to keep costs down.
Hope you and Larry are better soon. FYI when I had a very bad cough my Dr. Prescribed an older med called Tessalon Pearls. You swallow one small pearl with water and I had great relief from that cough which was keeping me up.
I worked in hospice for 11 years. We used Tessalon pearls for folks with intractable coughs and they are excellent. Use only at night though because your cough serves a purpose. You need to get the mucus out. It isn’t paying rent. Take mucinex for that and drink lots of hot liquids during the day.
Instead of keeping a list of items on hand, when I open the last container of whatever it is, it goes on the next shopping list.
A&H is also on some Fetch so you would save even more after Ibotta at Kroger.
Look into using steam instead of cleaners. Steam cleans better, too. You'll pay off the steam cleaner quickly by what you save.
I do lots of everyday price comparisons on line and sales comparisons and don't forget buying largest isn't always cheapest .. go figure
Hope you both feel better soon.
I'm glad to see you back. Hope you guys are well soon. We go to an auction every month where they sell over stock or things about to go out of date. All the toothpaste, mouthwash, lotion, dental picks, generic Tylenol, cough drops in our house came from there. We also bought 5 gallon buckets of detergent (Tide and Gain) for $21.00 each. Products are good and the savings are amazing.
Exxtra is a good detergent.
You both are such great & genuine people. None like you. So sincere in sharing tips etc. am from India,sum tips help me, but whr coupons etc are concerned, hope I could know more . Am from India, am a senior citizen, I live alone. So 🤗 yr channel. You al are a blessing really 👍
Great list Hope! What a trooper to do a video when you're still recovering. You two are amazing!
12:05 that's right! Better for garments longevity as well!
Friend of mine is a very experienced Dry cleaner, he told me the same use 1-2 tbs per loads. Soap doesn't clean, water does. Soap only helps the water penetrate fabric.
Hope you and Larry feel better soon. I got caught in October with no cough medication. I’m well stocked up now. I have bought Gatorade, ginger ale, broth and fixings to make chicken noodle soup
I would like to hear more about saving money on household items. I think that is harder for me to track than anything. Also, if you can add pets into that too, I would appreciate it!
I watch a channel called veterinary secrets. It has saved me a ton of money. For instance, my lab retriever has frequent ear infections. I know how to wash her ears but sometimes she still gets infections. I used to have to take her to the vet for $60 and then pay $60 for a little bottle of antibiotic ear drops. I knew what the problem was! When I found out that I could use Polysporin ear drops ($13) effectively instead, it was a game changer! I don’t use it often, but it’s sure helpful to know alternative treatments that work. The vet industry is so expensive!
Hope.....please do a video, showing us all how you make your own vegetable broth. Thank you.
Thanks for doing this video, I have learned everything I can (I think) about grocery savings. Please add into your next viewer tips video about the CVS program that costs $5 a month. I pay the $5, I get $10 to spend immediately plus 20% off CVS products all the time and free shipping on all online orders. With their coupons and sales, I make out great at CVS every month. Walgreens- those bags sometimes go for buy 1 get 3! I stocked up last time and still have some. The small arm and hammer also go for $1.99 a piece occasionally and that includes the tabs as well. I love the pharmacy deals, thanks for doing a video to discuss for those who aren’t in the know.
I'm not a part of the CVS program where you pay a monthly fee, but I have a CVS discount card. I constantly get emails for 30% off (entire purchase) or 40% off (one item). Also, check (and keep) your CVS receipt after you shop, as that usually has even more extra rewards discounts!
Save on cough syfup, drink honey + lemon in water. Or add the lemon + honey to sage or thyme tea. They have antiviral properties and dont affect bood pressure.
I will add that when it comes to medication, generics are not exactly equal. Just because the active ingredients are the same, doesn’t mean the filler ingredients are. When changing brands it’s important to look for allergens in the filler ingredients. Also, different brands sometimes dissolve and are absorbed at different rates in the body. So pay attention to your symptoms when switching brands to make sure the change is worth it to you. Often times they are interchangeable, but not always.
Great video with great advice. I think it also is important to know how much of a product you use over a specific time, for example we do 12 loads of laundry a month - 2 of us in our late 70s. Also, as part of my Medicare Advantage plan I get $30/month to 'spend' on a wide variety of health items - cough drops, pain relief, toothpaste, etc - which are shipped free, it does help with spending. Also, for us, we do free home delivery or free shipping by joining WM+ & Sam's Plus - we've figured in the cost by computing gas, wear & tear on the car and our own time - BTW we do spend less because we avoid those spur of the moment purchases & we always look for sale items
A friend of our roommate came back after a few months gone,and immediately, everyone got really sick.
It was pure hell for me,as a severe asthmatic.
I ran through two big bags of cough drops,and a huge bottle of vitamin c,plus mucus relief pills.
I'm better now,but I would really rather not go through that again
Oh no! I feel so sorry for you. I'll be praying for you. BTW, my children and I are going through your curriculum for money for kids. We love it!
Robitussin cough gels are a bit pricer but work sooo much better than just a cough drop. I highly recommend these, especially if you have that nagging cough and still need to go to work.
yeah I just learned. I have filthy work uniforms. I cut my laundry detergent portion in half. my uniforms come out clean. boss never noticed.
I got 3 bottles of Arm and Hammer on a sale of buy 1 get 2 free. It was 28 load bottles. Then got 2 bottles of Xtra 72 loads for $1.99. I got 2 bottles. With what I had good for a year and a half.
I reuse my zip bags. I have a bag for cheese, bags for chicken and bags for meats. I mark whats in what bag and when i empty the contents, I put in more xheese in its bag, more chicken in its bagand so on. I only replace them every 6 months. I make my own laundry soap and diah liquid using Zote soap Borax, and Oxyclean. Dont put the Oxy in shampoo. One bar lasts me 1 year. A dollar a bar at Big Lots
We tried Fisherman's Friend, for the first time last year when we had Covid. They were the least expensive at the store. It helped so much!
Oh my gosh I hv been sick since right before Thanksgiving. What is this stupid illness! I now have a broken rib from coughing. I hope you both recover faster than me. ❤
You can also call the Company and ask for coupons or call them when you find something wrong with a product and get replacement coupons.
Walgreens runs the baggie sale about once a month and the detergent maybe once a month or month and a half 👍🏼
Arm and hammer is the best brand
One way to know about how much detergent to use - do a load, then inmediately wash it a second time but do not add any soap or other product. While the second time is on the wash cycle, look on the machine and see how much soap is coming from the clothes.
My father in law owned a laundromat for many years and swears by 1 tablespoon of liquid detergent in a front loading washing machine. 3T max for a top loader
More soap=more skin irritation, because there's so much residue on the fabric.
So,you have to continually wash it to get the soap off
Do a final rinse with some vinegar in it, about half cup to a cup, that will take any soap residue out.
I used vinegar as a substitute for fabric softener as well and learned the hard way that it is too acidic to constantly put it into washing machines. Use citric acid instead, it works just as well but doesn't destroy the tubes of the machine in the long run.
@@josi4381 vinegar has a lot of uses. A little mixed with water in a spray bottle is great for cleaning glass and mirrors. Among many other uses.
I started making my own laundry soap years ago and have saved SO MUCH! To save on fabric softener, I make it as well. Stretch it even more by keeping a small plastic container with 2-3" squares of inexpensive sponges that have been soaked in fabric softener. Toss a couple into each dryer load. Dry for a few minutes, then hang up your clothes to dry. I also make my own hair conditioner with dollar tree hair conditioner thinned way down with white vinegar. Works great! No need to buy a lot of containers that add to the landfills. I found the recipes for all these products online. You can also make window cleaners, countertop cleaners, weed killer, bug killers, the possibilities are endless. I love this stuff. Thank you for all your tips! I've learned so much!
I hope both you and Larry are "a box o' birds" again real soon.
From New Zealand
Praying for speedy healing for you and Larry! My hubby and I had the same flu last month. Awful! I still have a bit of a cough!
I too use mostly store brand, every spring I do a cough drop inventory( I have bad allergies!) I stock up as needed!😊
What personal information do they ask for to use Fetch and Rakuten?
Don't forget to have a list for Pet Supplies as well.
After I've used a little of my liquid laundry detergent I add water to it to make it last longer. Lately, the last few I've bought the liquid is SO THICK! I add water to make it last longer. :)
Great tips, thank you!
Get well soon Larry!
Hey everyone! Watching from Georgia! Happy holidays!
I like to shop online at Target for items we are brand loyal to. Target will usually compile some manufacturer coupons in app that couple with their in store coupons and discounts. I always look out for when they offer a $10 gift card on a purchase of $50, the $50 purchase is usually limited to a specific department but that $10 gift card becomes a way to save on purchases for gifts or household items in the future.
I check my first aid box/kit yearly right before hurricane season. It's good to chec before the season you will need them. It's just me so it makes sense to do it before hurricane season. Maybe for others it's before baseball or flu season. Regarding the name brand being cheaper...when eggs were sky high I went to Aldi's and noticed that the organic, cage free brown eggs were cheaper than the regular eggs. I did a double take and it was significantly cheaper so I bought 2 containers. I will be checking out the companies websites for coupons. I never would have thought about that! Thanks for your content. I hope you both feel better!
I'm diabetic and when I tried the Reese's No sugar Peanut Butter Cups I e-mailed and told them how fabulous they were, they responded, asked for my mailing address and sent me 5 $1.00 coupons!! I rarely contact companies, but that really paid off.
Spot on with Fisherman 🎉!!!!
Just signed up for both Rakuten and Fetch with your links, Hope. Hope you get the credit! Thank you for taking the time to make quality education available to us. I appreciate you and Larry 😊
Great and informative video, thank you! I would also love to see more videos on this topic. I hope you feel better soon guys!!
Fisherman's Friend lozenges are the only kind of cough drop I'll buy. For detergent, I find the $$ come out best if I go with Aldi's brand, Tandil. They have one that's analogous to Tide, and one similar to Gain. What I have NOT been able to catch a break on is AA and AAA batteries, esp Duracell. They're expensive but I stay with them because off brands don't last anywhere near as long.
Costco’s Kirkland brand batteries are the same as Duracell, very reliable.
I think that Office Depot sometimes has 100% cash back on their loyalty card with batteries. I thought they were Duracell, but they may have been the store brand. You can check there around Black Friday.
Please explain “100 percent cash back” on their loyalty card- thank you
@@laurelosbourn6973, for the past couple of years, Office Depot offered 100% back onto their Rewards Card - just on battery purchases over Black Friday weekend. So, if you bought batteries for $20, then the next month, you would have $20 on that loyalty card to spend in store. There was a time limit in which the money had to be spent. Most of the time rewards of just 2% on every purchase are put onto your Rewards card. Here's a link to their rewards card info. www.officedepot.com/l/rewards/office-depot-rewards
Aldi batteries work well, just like name brand.
Yes! Fisherman’s friend is Awesome!
Hope you both get full recovery soon🙏🏼 thank you for your videos
I save a RIDICULOUS amount of money shipping Walgreens. 🙌
I like to have diphenhydramine (Benadryl) on hand. It can be used to treat cough, vomiting, diarrhea, hives. Off label it has been used to promote sleep. I prefer the dye-free liquid form. Liquids are nice because they work more quickly (don’t need to dissolve) and it’s easier to measure a smaller dose (v breaking a tablet).
Never tried them but will look for them now. Great ideas. Always do the math, got it. Love 💕 and Hugs. ❤❤❤
Another GREAT video, Hope! And speaking of HOPE, I HOPE you both are feeling better today! The flu can knock you out for sure! I used to shop at drug stores more, but haven't in years, mainly because I found the "deals" few and far between. After this video, I'm back to doing it! I have never used Ibotta either. Would love a video about the savings from that as well as more education on store savings like this Walgreens one. Thank you so much!
I hope you and Larry feel better soon. I always have a lingering cough for about a week after I get sick 😞
I love this subject and would love to hear more. I have gotten luck with getting some of this stuff cheaper at walmart or big lots. Some stuff is even cheaper at our Wegmans (have done the cost comparison before). We have an Ollie's (like Home Goods/Marshalls) near us and that has the best price on storage bags, shampoo and conditioner, as well as some other home goods.
Hope you are feeling better!!
Fisherman's Friend are like fumigation for your tubes! Very good when you need to loosen all the flegm.
Thanks for the tips, I hadn't thought of looking in so many directions for discounts
Hope, I’d love to see you review the sales for the week and how we can layer for the best deals that week.
❤ I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS LIKE THIS I HAVE FETCH BUT I HAVE ALSO BEEN LEARNING ABOUT
Saving MORE MONEY
Thankyou so much Hope for this Walgreens savings video. My favor video so far. So very helpful. Thankyou so very much. Very imformative😊🤗😊♥️
Hope y’all feel better!
I always throw away the cup that comes with laundry detergent, and use a 1/4 cup measuring cup in it's place. Even then, most loads only need about half (or 1/8th of a cup). We are a household of 8 (with 5 boys ages 8-20), so we do a lot of laundry!! But, I only buy detergent 3-4 times a year.
Fishermans friend is my go to. When we took a trip to Europe 10 years ago I got a dreadful cold and was so glad to get them there cheaper than the us. They are made in England and shipping costs are included in our pricing. Believe me I stocked up.
Feel better both.
Love Walgreens for couponing! The regular price of items is high but they run great sales with digital coupons and register rewards and other types of rewards
I get my shampoo, body wash, toothpaste n tooth brushes, bleach, etc from the Dollar store, unless I find a great deal on them somewhere else.
I hope you and Larry get well soon. I love Fisherman's Friend cough drops, they work. The others are like candy. I want to learn more about coupons, and using coupons. I don't buy the newspaper so I do not get coupons. Where are some good places to get coupons? I have learned to buy store brand items. Saves money.
My dad used Fisherman's Friend way back in the 50's in Cumberland England and although I am now in my 70's I still look for these as they work really well and end up less expensive than the cheap brands if they do not work for you.
I have never heard of Fisherman’s Friend. But you can be assured I’ll be on the hunt for it now😊
I’m glad you are on the mends❤ Goodness, I’ve seen a lot of RSV, Flu and Pneumonia over the last few weeks😢
Those are some great deals on detergent!!!
I’m shocked at what some detergents cost now.
LOL…and I even had a time that I made my own. But work vs time vs savings🥹 wasn’t exactly panning out as the best option. I had my kitchen looking like I was back in the 1800’s making a brew.
Have a great week ❤
