Other Costco video here! • Supply Run Anchorage A...
I just recently found your channel and am loving it. I’ve been binge watching and am learning a ton. Thank you!
Omg!!! Thank you and welcome!!!
Same here!
That's a lot of food. But you have a big family. Excited to see your pantry.
It is but it is our first real bulk.
Hi, welcome to Alaska. I've worked in that very Costco for 26 years, and retired a few years ago. Actually transferred to that one right after it was built, when it opened in '92, from the Dimond one, so I know lots of the old schoolers there. My class mate's dads' company built that building. Anyway, I just found your channel by coincidence I guess, and it's cool to find other people interested in the same things. Your place looks like quite the dream, very cool. I love Wasilla.
Oh wow that is very interesting. Thank you for sharing thank you fir the kind words.
just found your channel bc it was recommended. I'm sure bc I follow 3 other Alaska UA-camrs. so glad. I enjoy it. hello from Delaware. I'll share your channel w my Simply Alaska viewers & Somers in Alaska
Oh my goodness! Welcome! And thank you!
Loved shopping with you, nice to see the prices, thank you. We have been using a meat slicer for a while now and it does save lot's of money.
Perfect. It’s truly a great investment. I just sliced up that bacon we were making last night!!! Can’t wait to dig into that! Welcome!
Great Haul Jessica, Aaron and Wyatt 🥩🥔🍗🐔🧀🥯🥜☕🛒💳
Thank you so much! I appreciate that.
I know it’s my own issue but it makes me crazy when people throw the groceries in the cart ! Always think it bruise’s your veggies and meat and the dry goods might open up or get a rip in the bag ! Seems to be a guy thing. Good video 🤗
Sorry. They are rough around the edges but have the kindest hearts of any men I have ever meet.
The guys need some football time in the yard to release extra energy before going shopping.
calm down
I am guilty of that too lol . I guess pending how busy I am and when I didn’t have time to stack groceries . I like to call it speed shopping lmao 😂
I just found your channel, loved your Costco video!! I lived in Fairbanks for 2yrs. My Daughter was stationed there, we are now in Colorado Springs, anyways I'm probably gonna binge watch all your videos now!!
Yeah!!! We meet in Colorado and had the children there. Spent a lots of time in the springs. My family is still in Colorado! Welcome!!!
I love everything about this! I’m such a weirdo when it comes to stocking up. Seeing my freezer full of butter makes me overly excited. Bummed our Costco doesn’t have that rice can’t even order and have it shipped to me
Oh man. And I love rice. Butter is a must it needs to be fully stocked I totally agree!
Had a friend stop in one day as I was reorganizing my freezer after defrosting. She was astounded at my 14 pounds of butter. "Why?", she wondered. "It was on sale, and I use a lot of it", I told her. She couldn't imagine. Most can't so I've learned to keep quiet about my food storage.
Love the way shop that is way a side most shop have bless day you and your famliy
I like how you pause and explain. Thanks.
Wow thank you so much.
In some odd way I really loved this. Excellent video content and a lovely family. And wow..love love love your house. Just subbed so looking forward to many more postings. Better content and family values than a certain blogger of a family of 12! .Thank you.Kate (uk)
Wow that is so kind! Thank you for being here! And welcome to the channel
Love this! I am building my pantry with you! Thank you!
Yeah! We have got to stick together snd lift each other up.
The really great thing about your channel is that it can apply anywhere, The long term storage and the pantry, everything. I envy you living in Alaska, always wanted to live there and fish. Blessings to you and yours
You might not get this fully! But that might be one of the biggest compliments I have ever gotten. Thank you! Have a super blessed day.
Some of those prices arent bad - $11.99 for the 5 doz eggs- $2.39- a doz. I'm glad i raise my own chickens so my eggs are free! Well the layer feed cost/ plus free grass- gives me compost for the garden I'm loving your large pantry space. I have 3 deep chest freezers, one upright and 2 fridge freezers, LOL (my chick starter and layer feed i started buying 20lbs at a time a year ago to stock up,so i'm not affected by the price increases)
Wow thank you! Working that direction. It takes so much time and money! I get chickens as soon as the coop can be moved here. It’s under a foot of snow right now. Then eggs for days is the plan.
@@modernhomesteadalaska I had nothing- used a tote as a a brooder in my bathtub- ordered my chicks in the mail, at least you have a coop ! You are gonna do fine! I ordered my chick feed months ahead of time and stocked up on what i would need cause i had nothing-but a tote! , LOL
@@modernhomesteadalaska It takes a l
ot of time , hard work and a lot of money!
Last week eggs was $6 a dozen in Ga.
@@afterthought72 wow, i haven't been to the store in a long time,prices here have really gone up!
Great haul! I need your energy!
Thank you me too!!!! Today!!!
🎉 hi, I'm Mary and new to your channel. I'm in west palm beach, fl. I love your kitchen and pantry. just love it. ❤😊
I do the same with Mason jars, we have bugs 🐛. I wish I had a pantry but I do with my cabinets in my small kitchen. I hope to see more video's soon. I just have a small tiny little request 😊, when you show close up shot of plastic bags you are grabbing can you hold the camera back just a little, it's the noises that really gets to me. I have tinnitus with cancer treatment and the rustling of the bags really gets to me. I get it, it's my problem, I know I'm crazy to ask, I know what you are thinking, crazy person but you got to love me.
well good luck with that Costco haul. have a great day 🎉😊❤ hope to see more video's soon 😀 😊 🙂 ☺
Wow I don’t know what to say!!! Welcome! This is one of the kindest responses I have ever gotten. I’ll try on the bags!
That is the biggest shop I have ever seen. I like shopping. Where I live we don't have the selection. Keep making these videos.
Me too! And I’ll say I’m so thankful to keep up on it. Because I wouldn’t want to start over. Thanks for watching
What a giant Costco you have!
It’s pretty big for the state.
Hi im from England ,first time watching , i love love your home fantastic , been watching your shopping vlogs, i wish i could have a home like your , and buck shop hate going out for bits all the time , we have just small packets in England, at our super markets, we have adsa , which is walmarts ,owned , so you think we could by large amount packs , when your out in the cold wild states , what jobs do you have do you have to travel a distance, everybody's vlogs in wild you never seem to buy fish , do you catch you own in lakes ? Well have diffo enjoyed your vlog and will continue to watch more , all the best to you all keep well and safe x👍👊👏😘
I just found your video. Meaning this is the very first time I have watched your video. Thank you. I will continue to watch your videos. I really do enjoyed watching your video. I am now one of your new subscribers. Thank you
Awesome! Thank you! Welcome! So happy you are here!
I hope you keep and eye for the items that go on sale the month are you shop. If anything you bought goes on sale you can get paid the difference!!! Use the price adjustment option . So easy !
Wow thank you I didn’t know that. I’ll do that from now on.
@@modernhomesteadalaska just have to request the price adjustment during that sale. If you wait till It’s over it won’t work.
@@thespicyonion great thank you so much for the information.
you can freeze sour cream as well I buy buttermilk n put 1cup into zoplock baggies n freeze I also buy the powdered buttermilk I use both for baking
That’s such a great point and idea. Thank you for sharing
@@modernhomesteadalaska sure I'm full of them lol
With the eggs make into powder with a dehydrator could be a option to use later
Thank you great point.
We live in Virginia, with lots of cows, chickens and pigs being raised on nearby farms. Your prices on meats, etc, were better or comparable!
No way!!!! Seriously that is crazy. I thought they are super high! Thank you for sharing.
His sighs when you say one BOX 🤣 I just came across your page.
Lol he is so extra! He is funny stuff.
I love bulk shopping trips 😊
Perfect thank you
I am in Cape Coral Florida. Yes, we got a direct hit from hurricane Ian. But, we were prepared. That being said, I very much enjoyed your vlog. First time watching it! I LOVE grocery shopping. So, thank you for yours vlog. I watch many others, some I never view again for many different reasons, BUT I LOVED YOUR VLOG!! I subscribed.
Oh wow! Thank you I’m so happy to have you.
Oh I would love to have that many Tillamook cheese options!😍
So many choices here
For the most part your prices were cheaper than what we pay in northern BC. Great video🇨🇦🌷
That’s great!
I'm watching this December 28th 2022 and I wish eggs were still 11.99 for 5 dozen 😫 crazy how much things have gone up since this video was recorded!
I know it’s so crazy!!!! It wild to see it on video. You can feel it but they just keep going up little by little, squeezing us to death
Great haul
Wow thank you!
was stationed at fort richardson for 3 years and have been around wasilla I love alaska and hope one day to go up again for a visit🏔❄☃🙂
Come on back!
Hey Jessica. Would u do a haul and pantry stock with this grocery run. Would love to see
Yes they are on the way. I should have the freezer and all the meat put into it this Saturday that video comes out. And then how I store the bulk items coming quickly after that. Stay tuned!
Like women in the 19th century, a homestead housewife has to prep and store and cook everything and plan her pantry for seasons in advance. Thankfully there are freezers so she doesn’t have to do canning. It’s still hard work.
Agree! It’s truly a labor of love, to live a more simple life
We started making our own brown sugar. It's molasses + regular sugar. And molasses is good forever.
I’m excited to try it
Looks like you have a wood cooking stove. Can you show it off? Also what it took to get used to cooking on it after probably a gas or electric range? I just subbed--just found your channel. Really enjoying it! Looks like some prices are a little higher than in the Midwest. Our GB is $4.29 as of last week. Keep the videos coming!
Oh wow welcome! Yes if you jump back a few videos. I installed the wood Cookstove and have done a few videos on that. I’m happy someone wants to even know about it. It’s the workhorse of our kitchen. And YES! I’m making and recoding some more videos on it.
Your home is beautiful 💚
Thank you so much that’s so kind,
Azure standard is what I will stock my house when i move to Texas
That’s a great way todo it. We use Azure quite a bit to stock ours too.
That full truck bed would cost me 500 to fly home. And my round trip fkighr at 260 rt. 20 min flight from anchorage. I shop the same costco
thank you
We we visited Costco yesterday here in the UK. we got from memory, sausage(18) Angus beef joint (we cut into 3) chicken wings (20) kilo onions, aluminium foil (enough for 2 years based on our last pack) Large vacuum bags, 120), 15 packs sugar, washing power VERY large, LARGE fabric softener, 12 pack washing up detergent. Floor cleaner detergent. Kilo of Cod fillets, Kilo of prawns, 4 litres of Vegetable oil, 2 litres of Olive oil, 1litre of Soy sauce. Tooth paste, hand wash, shampoo and conditioner. Plus other stuff I can’t remember. The bill was £260, UK sterling, worth every penny. This was just a top up from our previous shop there 6 month age.
Can I just say I love the words you use. I want to now call it washing up detergent.
You had a great haul way to get prepared. Seriously I looked it up is that $256 US Dollars!!!!!!!!!! And last what is Angus beef joint?
Angus beef is a long cut of beef usually used for roasting sometimes known as
Tenderloin. It was just short of a metre long.
@@modernhomesteadalaska is that haul cheap by your standards?
We don’t need to go for maybe another 6 months maybe I can’t remember all we got
@@jenniferwright oh my it would of cost me over $1,000 us
New subscriber here! Great video! You gave me a good idea that can really save money..I can get a meat cutter that way I can get like a whole ham or boneless turkey and slice it for lunchmeat. Thanks so much!
Yes it saves so much and we even smoke bacon snd slice it. Great investment
Welcome!!! Thank you for joining us!!!
That was my total my first trip to costco. It was a two cart trip..
It’s crazy!
Wow i thought it would have cost more😮 stay safe x🇬🇧👋
Truly! It’s wild how different prices are different places.
WOW--your potatoes and onions are EXPENSIVE--But thanks for making this post. Of course the potatoes and onions are way bigger, so it would last me a very long time too. Ground beef is cheaper than in KY here, its $5.99/lb. I hate to see your food bill! Oh, it must be a LOT more than I spend. I don't buy eggs, as I do raise my chickens for food. That is something you may want to consider.
Thank you for watching. I bulk shop and store up food so a few big tips and very little other shopping. But things are crazy expensive now. Even worse then before.
Azure has ground beef 80/20 and 85/15. 52 cents a pound 60 cents a pound
Oh wow! I’ll be checking that out
I've lived in Anchorage for the last year and a half and I'm still not used to the higher prices here....
And they are going up I went back looked at this video to the new one and everything is up 9%
I just watched a Costco run done by a fellow Alaskan family yesterday and their bill came to about $3500 so you guys did a cheap run! lol For it being more expensive in Alaska at Costco, that Kirkland butter and the cream and half and half was much cheaper than here in BC Canada.
Wow see I’m not the only crazy Alaskan. Believe it or not we get hate for large trips online because people don’t understand A it’s not always possible to get to a store and B we live over an hour and half each way on a perfect clear day.
But yeah at lest something is cheaper. The prices from my first Costco haul to the most recent in 6 months went up 9% but I don’t know about you we didn’t get a 9% raise in that time. It’s out of control.
@@modernhomesteadalaska You get "hate" for large trips? I think those who don't do this are foolish. I'll bet when one goes weekly to Costco (if they live near by) that they are spending MORE than your 2-3 trips annually! I have always done it the way you're doing it. I would rather have a stocked pantry than the money in my purse! Because you just never know what could happen and especially during these times. I have a sister that literally has nothing to eat in the house since she shops weekly. She even buys rice in a 3 pound bag! And yeah, things are increasing in price so rapidly that I think it's actually a good "investment" to stock up on things that can sit on a shelf for years. And no, I surely didn't get a 9% raise! If it happens again with toilet paper what happened in 2020, heck, I may auction some of mine off for a tidy profit! lol
Happy Birthday to your Grandpa❤️
Thank You!
Do you stock up on dog food? We keep at least 4 months of dry bag dog food. I keep it in climate control storage. The open bag is in food grade large bucket that I am using at the time. We also just recently started canning dog food.
Well lol we did not! But after being told the limits on it….. (after I made this video) I have to start. I just never had an issue getting it before.
Wow your eggs and butter are cheaper than NC
Ok. I get a kick out of watching the guys doing most of the loading.
Most! ALL that is how I roll when I can.
you can freeze the parm too
Good idea
resturant size box is cheaper n u get wayyyy more I do my foil n plastic wrap I date it to see how long it last 11/19 is when I got both
Agree
Tip from a country girl in Kentucky, put your potatoes in a cardboard box and keep in a cool dry place, they will last longer!
Nice I have plenty cardboard after the last shopping trip.
Hello from Queensland Australia, I wish I had Costco 😊
Welcome! Hello from Alaska!
I'm in nsw and me too! Costco looks so amazing, and I'd love to be able to buy in bulk!
Frugal mum downunder lol it is a blessing with all that’s happening and this lifestyle.
Omg! You two must’ve won the lottery as from I understand, building in Alaska is super costly. Also, Costco is pricey by us in Florida. So, I’ll be curious to see how much money you spend. Cheers 😊
Lol I do wish that was the case for sure! Thank you for watching! 🥰
that's awesome I thought it was over 2g
It would be now fir sure.
you should have brought your paper products and personal care items from AZ...or stopped along drive while in USA. cost would have been so much cheaper! toliet paper, paper towels, paper plates, foil, saran wrap, ziploc bags...etc.
That would if been good except we didn’t have room for all that and the tools we needed to build the homestead. It was a hard choice. I did try and bring as much as I could. We had several packs. But with so many people that goes fast.
are you aware that Alaska is part of the United States? or did you mean to say the lower 48?
@@emmib1388 well they didn't swim in the pacific ocean did they?? if you are driving then you have to drive thru Canada to get to Alaska.
@@zefcha4670 not sure what how they drove the the AK has to do with my question -- my question to you was, are you aware that Alaska is part of the United States, and this is based on your comment "or stopped along drive while in USA. " .....
I think it's cheaper there than my Sam's in SC USA LOL
Check this price comparison from that video to just 2 months ago and it’s gone up way more since then. It’s crazy that on less then a year you are at the same price as us. ua-cam.com/video/QAQnsPOimg0/v-deo.html
New subscriber here. Where’d ya get the light over your table? Love it. That was quite a haul.
Thank you. I actually got it off Etsy someone made it from old chicken lights.
And welcome to the channel!
@@modernhomesteadalaska thank you.
I would love to know how you and your husband came about to moving to alaska? Where did you come from what did you do before? What was your thought process and reason for coming and doing what you're doing? Also how hard / easy was it to build a home and find the products to use in your home? How did you go about furnishing it or styling it for the reasons the way you had your home? If you do have a video already and I am just missing it LOL please let me know the title of the video if you did already talk about it thank you have a great day
It will be out this week
But I got to know did y'all go to Chick-fil-A 😃??
I miss Alaska so much! We were stationed in Eielson AFB.
Lol they don’t have a chick-Fil-A here. We love it and can only get it out of the state.
We are so in love with it here
@@modernhomesteadalaska what do you love about it?
Just wondering how long does all that food last you? And it seems like there's no food shortage there. I've seen others from Alaska showing they're having food shortages.
And can I ask what your husband does for a living? To let you stay at home.
Here is our Q and A on work our family. But months on some things. I only do a few big shops a year. ua-cam.com/video/Am_qkjMo6MI/v-deo.html
time to start hunting
We are on it!
They do that in the uk price it per pound its says 3.99 in big letters then underneith in the smallest font per pound 😅 so it looks cheqp but isnt
It makes me crazy. I have to check the fine print. Thank you for watching.
You can ask them to slice the pork loin for you, its free!
Good idea. I almost never eat it as chops but I should do one.
Really??!? Last year we got 4 of them and cut them all wonky with a knife at home. Will they slice the hams and turkeys as well?!?
@@thespicyonion nice idea! We should ask.
@@modernhomesteadalaska I’m having a life changing moment over here lol
So where did you guys moved from and why did you guys choose Alaska? Great haul!!!
From Arizona. We came to Alaska for lots of reasons. We knew once we were shut down snd life was stripped away Arizona was not where we wanted to be. Alaska is the most beautiful place. And had for us everything, ocean, mountains, seasons, green grass, snow, fishing…….
Y’all trying to let me rent your garage for a week? Wanna see if Alaska is for me because I really want to move there
lol it’s amazing here you would love it!
Jessica has your family done any hunting/fishing
Lots of fishing! We have now been here long enough and can finally hunt this year. But the season is not on us yet! We will be filling our freezer (with luck) from what we hunt and fish. We had to eat what we fished this past summer quickly because we only had a bottom freezer and when they were running heavy we didn’t have a freezer at all. So we ate it. Now I’m finally set to be able to store it all.
@@modernhomesteadalaska
You'll be healthy from all the fresh fish
Yumm
M Brown exactly!! We are excited!!
gross lol I nvrlike cherrios of any kind lol but my kids did n still do lol
Lol my kid loves them too!
Have you tried making your own sour cream? It's like a yogurt / sour cream so many multi uses on it also are you guys ever thinking about raising your own cattle? And meat chickens?
We raised 25 meat chickens. We don’t have pasture land here so no cattle
I thing your husband is stressing over the amount of food and thinking of pricing
You got that right! He was holding it together. He was about to leave his job of 16 years snd had no job lined up. We were dipping into savings to make sure we had what we needed for that season. No matter what it was so stressful for him. But he did it and we hit it done. Are it while he found work. And he is great about it all now. We try and show who we are in real life and a man who provides but also stress to try and do it above and beyond is my husband.
Suggestion I would blur out these people's license plates.
Don’t know how or I would.
I prefer Sam's club
Well it’s my understanding there are none in Alaska so that makes it hard to have a preference here.
@@modernhomesteadalaska oh that's too bad!! But it was an interesting video can't wait to see the others 😀
Kristy Bird thank you! Have a super weekend.
prices aren't much difference than in southern Mich.
I agree not nearly as bad as it’s made out. Now the villages are a whole differ t story here but the main areas like Anchorage are not!
I think it's funny us women look at every piece of meat n men just grab
Lol! It’s funny
Ummmm did you call us old- timers🤦♀️.
Ahhhhh lol
