Thank you, Ana. I’ve been shopping for the last couple of days to make sure I was stocked up and had filled the gaps in my preps. And, I made another attempt to chat with my son and daughter-in-law and shared your videos. They’ve actually watched and listened and taken action yesterday and today. They’ve now got a very well stocked pantry, freezer and cupboards. Thank goodness, and again, thank you x
According to Sainsbury's the increase in emplyer's national insurance contributions is approximately one third of their annual profits. They aren't going to hurt their shareholder's so it'll be the shopper who suffers: so while our national insurance hasn't been raised directly, we will still be paying for this nonesence 😢
I think that it will be well before April as they will want the money in their hands prior to wages day. Add in the cost of fuel going up and the cost of importing more food item, both costs that will get passed on to us. If you have the means to grow anything, this must certainly be your wake up call to get those green finger's busy 🌶🥕🥒🥔🥦🌽🍓🍏
I think we just have to accept that we will be spending more of our total household income on food. When I think back to my grandparents generation, only one income coming into the house, yet they managed and ate well. They did help matters by having an allotment and growing some of their veg, cooking from scratch and eating seasonal food.
Even here you're expecting food cost/availability to stabilise - it won't. "World events" and govt economics will perpetually increase prices - this won't stop!
Were going to have say no more, we're not paying these price rises. I wrote to heinz to ask why they were charging extortionate prices and they blamed the retailers but when I asked the retailer they said the manufacturer sets the recommended retail price. In terms of national insurance these huge companies who let's face it like aldi are global could if they wanted to act in a socially just way absorb the increase in NI. I can see boycotts coming.
Thanks for the Video Ana. Like you, we also stocked up with Olive Oil when the price was rock bottom, it doesn't take a lot of effort to think about what's happening around you and how it will impact your life. Your right about rising inflation from April, but the true level of inflation is already considerably worse than the official figures, because the size or quantity of a lot of the food products that we buy has been reduced, a process known as 'Shrinkflation'. I also noticed today whilst looking at the Olive Oil in a big supermarket a bottle that at first glance appeared to be Olive Oil, but it was about half the price of the other bottles, I became interested in the product because it seemed so cheap compared to the other bottles, when I looked more closely I realised that it was Olive Oil that had been 'blended' with sunflower oil. I suspect a lot of the food retailers will cut down on the quality of ingredients in a bid to try to keep prices as low as they can. I think we'll have to pay a lot more attention to the ingredients of our food in the near future.
A few of our shopping items a few weeks ago have already gone up. We get roughly the same things each week and i can keep seeing when each item of ours goes up.
Hi from the North east Anna 😊. Can I suggest, like mark the bowler hat farmer said, don't shop at supermarkets. Use local farmers and other small businesses
Hi😊 yes if you have the option . Believe it or not we live in semi rural Wales with loads of farms around but not a local farm shop for miles and marker 45min away
Unfortunately we don't have any independent grocery shops, just one greengrocer that sells local veg & fruit. A lot of us pensioners and disabled don't drive so we can't get to farms. A regular van touring the small towns selling veg etc, would be brilliant, or even a farmer's market in the town hall. We used to have both those but they stopped some years ago. Otherwise, I'd be happy to buy direct. :)
I'm in rural Ireland. We have a pretty big farm shop about 6 miles away but honestly I don't buy anything from them and the only reason being is the amount of fertilisers and sprays they use is scandalous. A farmer beside me rented out his land to them and saw exactly what was put on the veg and he said he'd never eat the veg again when he saw what was put on them. He was shocked. For example the carrots go black within 2 days of buying them and have a funny taste, it's unreal. Thankfully I'm lucky to be in a position to be able to buy organic and I have a garden too which I am so thankful for.
Probably a good idea is to invest in buying household and hygiene items such as washing detergent and soap these are mostly things with a long shelf life and something that more than likely to be earmarked for a price increase.As they are all items that are essential so cannot really be avoided.I myself always make a point of just buying a few items each week even if it only a couple of rolls of tin foil and the laundry detergent on offer thinking that you don’t need it now isn’t prepping
I just had a discussion on a FB page that someone did not believe there was a war on food. In fact, she said there was plan to control us and that world leaders don't care about food!
Not everybody gets a couple of pounds per hour, only under 19's ish. I already get min wage, but not even £1 price rise. It's ridiculous how we can run a house with all those hefty bills now
I keep banging on but l bet they will flood the supermarkets with carrots and parsnips potatoes come xmas week so makes wonder who's where do they hoard all this stuff
Slim pickings in Home Bargains today. A lot of stuff I usually pick up there, gone. Labels off the shelves. Got my olive oil when it was cheap, too. It's a ridiculous price in the shops now. Got some goose fat, good for 2 or 3 years @ per date.
The issue is aswell is the dates on stuff if they on 6 month date…. It’s not worth getting now as they will be out of date by April, so have to think that too
@ how far past best before. I know I eat stuff past it’s best before if it tastes ok. But it’s buying that stuff then if it’s gone bad it’s still a waste. I hope what I’m saying is making sense
Think about the next budget, then the next one after that, etc. And all I hear/read is 'vote Reform!' People are in for a nasty shock over the next 5 years. The Deagal forecast weighs heavvy in my mind.
Thank you, Ana.

Starver runing away from the Welsh farmers today was disgusting
I know I was thinking of doing a vid on that , pussy of a human !!
@@AnasFoodLifestyleDo it
All part of their agenda

I dont think we should accept it at all , that's the trouble you accept it , it just gets worse .
Even here you're expecting food cost/availability to stabilise - it won't. "World events" and govt economics will perpetually increase prices - this won't stop!
We should not accept it, this is on Labour and their voters.

Aldi normally pay very good wages, higher than some if the bigger supermarkets.

@AnasFoodLifestyle the farmers are thinking of selling at the farm gate so keep an eye out.

@@Iamhome365 Wow, that's horrible. Really bad for the soil as well. It's a good job you've got access to much better veggies. :)

Thankyou Anna really helps to know your so sweet and give so much off your time x
Thank you 😊 as long as it can help people prepare, all good 😊
The global hunger games all by design.
I just had a discussion on a FB page that someone did not believe there was a war on food. In fact, she said there was plan to control us and that world leaders don't care about food!
Thank you for your advice and will do.
This will increase the price on EVERYTHING. I’m a self employed in the building industry, my prices have to rise!
Part of the plan
Olive oil must be stored in a cool place and in the dark.
All oil should be stored that way
There will be shortages due to the terrible flooding in Europe and the drought in America.
Not everybody gets a couple of pounds per hour, only under 19's ish. I already get min wage, but not even £1 price rise. It's ridiculous how we can run a house with all those hefty bills now
Those kitchen tops looks sparkling and clean Anna😁.
Of course, can’t have it any other way in kitchen 🥰
I think lidl pay their staff more than tesco
Not from the people I know
Started doing it now
Food is still cheap here in the uk
Don't blame the government
I keep banging on but l bet they will flood the supermarkets with carrots and parsnips potatoes come xmas week so makes wonder who's where do they hoard all this stuff
What ever inflation figure that the government gives you , treble it.
👍and add some . Shame most people can’t see it 🙁
@@AnasFoodLifestyle It is now impossible to out run inflation because Concorde has retired.
lol

What do u use goose fat for please? And where do y buy from?
Home Bargains. Goose fat for crispy roast potatoes.
great information🎉🎉❤
Not only will own nothing you'll freeze and starve..
Well said. And if the inheritance tax stays for farmers then they'll be a lot of farms sold off to Evil Bill and his ilk in the future. :(
The issue is aswell is the dates on stuff if they on 6 month date…. It’s not worth getting now as they will be out of date by April, so have to think that too
Most items we should prep will be fine years past best before dates, ( not fresh foods of course )
@ how far past best before. I know I eat stuff past it’s best before if it tastes ok. But it’s buying that stuff then if it’s gone bad it’s still a waste. I hope what I’m saying is making sense
It all depends what it is , tins and dried goods are good years past the date
@@cherylhowker1792beetroot store over 1 yr in root celler/ using peatmoss or sand. Peatmoss not in B&Q anywhere
@ how long past date just so I know. I know they do last but what 1 year or 5 years or what
❤❤❤❤❤❤
that 50 million will just be past on to us who does that help no one
Who voted for labour??
The majority of the voters, that's who.
Think about the next budget, then the next one after that, etc. And all I hear/read is 'vote Reform!' People are in for a nasty shock over the next 5 years. The Deagal forecast weighs heavvy in my mind.
