You should have gone to a HEB. Used to live in Dallas and our youngest lives there. We retired to the Rio Grande Valley TX for the milder winters and the beach.
Hi Lauren, we don’t get that variety over here in Oz or those cheaper prices for similar items. We don’t get autumn specific items either. Enjoy your trip. ❤❤❤❤ the kumatoes are delicious. They last for ages in the fridge. The Saturn peaches are called donut peaches here,when you can get them. They’re the best peaches ever. Juicy and sweet. The plucots are plum crossed with apricot. Again delicious. We call them pluots. Just saying I love your channel because you’re so precise when you speak. No ands and buts etc. keep up the great job. We love you and the family. Go Bennett. Great job.
Vicki I am also amazed at all the different autumn items available. Of course as you know our Autumn is earlier in the year. The prices are in USD so to get a better idea of the price comparison find out the exchange rate and they dont seem that much cheaper. I did that when someone who bought a large punnet of blueberries andit it translated to $15 AUD.
Lauren, I can't imagine there's anything you could learn at the conference that would make your channel better. It is always so good. I'm glad you got a break, though. Yay for Bennett!
Very cute hotel. My husband would be the one who is tempted by the candies and drinks. So it would not be a good idea for him. He likes to hit the vending machines when we stay somewhere. 😂😂
❤️❤️❤️ We don’t have a Trader Joe’s in our area in Tn but when we go somewhere that has one we stock up…we do have Aldi about 30 miles so I stock up when I am there! Great video
That was a great video, looking forward to part 2. A wonderful few days learning from fellow UA-cam creators, meeting Becky from Acre Homestead was a bonus. She is such a talented, wonderful person whose videos inspire me. The boys are going to love all the fun treats and goodies from your Swag bag. Thank goodness for your extra baggage allowance. Bye for now 🌸
You did a phenomenal job Bennett with your cross country 👏 🎉🎉🎉🎉 keep up the magnificent work ever 🎉🎉🎉🎉 thank heaps from Ronnie 🎉🎉🎉🎉from Geelong Vic Australia 🎉 🇦🇺 🎉
You're soooo missing out not having an Aldi nearby. I've got 3 within a 5-10 minute drive dependant on which I want to go to.. they're all great and the prices, although gave gone up slightly like everywhere are unbelievably cheap given the food and extras you can get there. ❤
I like TJs, but have to drive a little to get to one. TJs are actually in the Aldi family, like a cousin. They have so many goodies there, its hard to resist, but we really like the frozen meals. They have a good selection of lo carb or keto meals. Im in No Cal and the price's there are pretty good too.
I’m so happy you had a chance to meet Becky. I love her channel too. I hope you had a good break, you’ve been go go go for a long while with Violet being in hospital and back and forth.
Yahooo Bennett ! My husband was/ is a runner still, at 65. He ran all through school and went to D1 college on a full ride. SO ke ruing , it can pay off. After college he ran for Adidas.
The boys will be so happy with all the goodies. Bennett - congratulations what a race Mom told us about. Keep going !!!!!!!!! Loved the video. Lauren, you can talk about anything and keep me entertained. Thank you for showing us around !!
Looks like you had lots of fun at the summit Lauren, well done Bennett on your race win. We have Aldi in uk 🇬🇧 but not trader joes, I love ❤️ seeing the difference in shops and foods and also different names for some veggies and everyday things compared to what we call things here in the uk. Most things are the same 😊thanks for taking us along with you on this trip. ❤
Trader Joe's and Costco. Can't live without it. Quality, quality with great prices in comparison to other grocery stores. Everything at Trader Joe's is delicious and very good price.
Have never gotten how people will spend 40 dollars on a cup when you can buy the same thing for half the price just to prove they have a name brand. The only person I need to impress is myself and I love when I can buy secondhand or very cheap. Would not know a brand name if I tripped over it.
I just love you and your family. I really do. I am 61, handicapped and live alone. Your videos help keep me from being lonely. You help fill up my life. Thank you and God bless you!
So much fun !! Went to Dallas many years ago with Walmart!! Brought home a bag of free goodies from different vendors. You are one of my favorite utubers!! Love watching the boys and Miss Violet !! Love all your family adventures!! 💙🩷💙💙💙💙🩷
I was just wondering whether you have Aldi, TJMaxx and Dollar Tree and the like...in Alaska. 😮 I hope that you got to visit a few Dollar Trees. Everyone is different. Enjoy your day. 😊
Just curious, buy why is food shopping in the US so expensive? I live in the UK and must admit our prices have gone sky high - but no way near as expensive as the states. In a way I understand why the prices are higher in Alaska (as they need to ship all the products much further away) but as a whole your supermarkets are so expensive compared to ours here in the UK. Sending you and your family love from Nottingham (home of Robin Hood)
I live in North Richland Hills a suburb of Fort Worth Texas hope you had fun El Fenix is a great restaurant I grew up eating at a mall in Fort Worth did they went to Grapevine and clothes that one down in the closest one is 30 minutes away from me in Irving Texas but I can't get it delivered how did a Texas girl end up in Alaska
Looks like you had a great time at your conference Lauren! Lots of great samples! Love Amy from Acre Homestead! The boys and Mark will love all those treats! Have a safe trip home!
Omg you got to meet Becky!??? I'm so envious of you both! I would do just about anything to meet you both! Love Becky's channel❤❤❤❤❤❤ BTW you don't need training, we love you just the way you are lady!!❤
Hey cutie pie. Could you let me know about Matt's taffy. I'm from Utah, but never heard of the place he is from. I don't get out much lol. Would like to help support him.
Here is the website but I don’t know if they sell the taffy yet? mattsoffroadrecovery.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoq8l0wwI3btorT5JZlLVbU64PuW2gTU18stH0aaSa5NbKzGmFFT
So fun I love that you and Becky got to meet I enjoy watching you both. The boys are set for a while lol with the snacks, but such a great idea. It's good to have sum recoup time.💚
Let Him Cook is aave and means something similar to "hear him out/lets see what he's got to say" it does work for actual cooking too. Glad you enjoyed the conference!
Hi Lauren glad you had fun. Just an FYI, Trader Joe’s and Aldi’s are brother stores. Two bothers each went their separate ways and open a store where they sell very similar items just different price points, would be interesting to see a similar items taste test maybe if you go to those stores again. Thanks for sharing and I love the ending when you thank everyone and your gentle tone. Hugs 🤗
Not quite. The owner of Trader Joe's sold his company to the Albrecht family in 1979. They already owned Aldi. At that point, they owned both companies. I am a caterer and I have watched a lot of company documentaries 😂
I so glad you introduced your friend. I just went and subscribe to her channel. I just got a freeze dryer and I’ll be watching all of her content thank you very much. You guys be safe and enjoy your trip.
Lauren. Absolutely loved this trip. Thanks so much for sharing your well deserved UA-cam summit. Thank you very much for wanting to learn and share more in your endeavors. You are a fantastic UA-camr. I watch all the things you and your wonderful family do. So proud of Bennett for winning! Love your room, but you're right. No alchohol for me either. Have a safe trip home to the kiddos and family. 💜 from AR.🛫😊
Your boys are going to love the candy score!! The 'Mary Poppins' bag was absolutely 'popping'😅 I'm glad you had a great time away and for a special friend to share it with. ❤
crazy the things people consume. my sister loves the 5 hour orb6 hour engery shots n mix with red bull I tell her that's not good for u n she said idont care I'm goingbto die happy
I recently was in the USA and we dont have Aldi or Trader joes either. Except the blessing of being in alaska versus canada... you dont have any dollar limit to bring anything home from stores you go to. I was not impressed with Aldi. I had seen so many videos on it and they had some things, but it was okay. Trader joes I feel like it depends on the location. Ive seen good trader joes and I've been to not so good trader joes.
How fun you and Becky got to meet and hang out. You two are my favorite creators along with Tina at Home Free Alaska.
If you don't mind me asking are you talking about Becky from Acre Homestead I love her channel
@@Linda-t4h3k yes, Lauren said they met each other
Aldi is cheap but you need to use the produce fairly quick
Home free Alaska is awesome. Also modern homestead Alaska. Love Becky also.
SO EXCITED FOR BENNETT & his running adventures. ❤❤❤
Glad you had a great trip and time to yourself important 😂
When you come to Texas, find a big H‑E‑B store! We don’t shop at aldis or Trader Joe’s because H‑E‑B is the bomb!
HEB is bout the same Prices as Aldi lol
Speculaasjes and stroopwafels are typical Netherlands cookies. O yeah, the cheese from Gouda is pronounced ou, like in house.
Love ❤
If you’re ever in Aldi no price I put it in the trolley and they check at the checkout staff always happy to put it back if it’s not needed.
Bronwyntaylor sorry if this is an inappropriate question, but are you by chance from the UK?
New sub, but I’ve seen a few of your videos. Love your style of speaking and relating to your audience. I ❤ warm real people.
Hello Neva, welcome to the family!!!🎉🎉🎉
You should have gone to a HEB. Used to live in Dallas and our youngest lives there. We retired to the Rio Grande Valley TX for the milder winters and the beach.
I said the same thing 😂
Love watching 😊😊totally agree on the protein cheese snack from Aldi! 🤮...congrats Bennett!!

Love this! 😊
You’d be my favourite travelling partner giggling “let’s find some food “
Aldi Süd 🎉🎉🎉
Greatings from Germany , home of Aldi 😅
Hello there!
❤️❤️❤️ We don’t have a Trader Joe’s in our area in Tn but when we go somewhere that has one we stock up…we do have Aldi about 30 miles so I stock up when I am there! Great video
Trader Joe here is 45 min away. I don't travel that direction much.
That is awesome!
Thinking it's great you finally met Becky.
She has come so far on YT and her scratch pantry website is wonderful for any sized family.
Congratulation Bennet for your win.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🏆, from Germany, Berlin.
That was a great video, looking forward to part 2. A wonderful few days learning from fellow UA-cam creators, meeting Becky from Acre Homestead was a bonus. She is such a talented, wonderful person whose videos inspire me.
The boys are going to love all the fun treats and goodies from your Swag bag. Thank goodness for your extra baggage allowance.
Bye for now 🌸
Alaska is just more wild, low key and cold Texas🟦⭐🟦
look for the shelf stable heavy whipping cream at trader Joe's. I have 1 left n some stores in vegas don't carry n some do so its always a hunt
Oh I will look next time for sure! Sounds very helpful .
Congratulations , Bennett proud of you keep up the good work
Spekulatius Cookies is typical for christmas time in Germany 😊
You did a phenomenal job Bennett with your cross country 👏 🎉🎉🎉🎉 keep up the magnificent work ever 🎉🎉🎉🎉 thank heaps from Ronnie 🎉🎉🎉🎉from Geelong Vic Australia 🎉 🇦🇺 🎉
So fun you got to meet Becky from Acre Homestead! So awesome you had some time for yourself to connect with others who do what you do!
I laughed when you said Maple Cream cookies are seasonal.
I’m in Canada and you can buy them everywhere daily, 364 days a year. ( closed Xmas)
Yes I'm French from Canada too an these cookies bring me back to my childhood. An theyr only sold here in Tennessee in the fall.
I'm in Wisconsin. All the stores have them usually on the top shelf.
Woohoo Bennett!! 🎉 Yay, that is so amazing!! Congratulations! Love you guys!! ❤
Hi Lauren! Those German speculatous (sp?) are my kryptonite….Have fun!!❤️Michele
You're soooo missing out not having an Aldi nearby. I've got 3 within a 5-10 minute drive dependant on which I want to go to.. they're all great and the prices, although gave gone up slightly like everywhere are unbelievably cheap given the food and extras you can get there. ❤
Hi Lauren thanks for taking us with you.i love Aldi’s ❤
Hahaha your review of the puffs made me laugh.
I like TJs, but have to drive a little to get to one. TJs are actually in the Aldi family, like a cousin. They have so many goodies there, its hard to resist, but we really like the frozen meals. They have a good selection of lo carb or keto meals. Im in No Cal and the price's there are pretty good too.
I shop in Aldi mostly for vegetables and fruits, their prices are good. Never been to Trader Joe’s but will be going soon. Get home safe💕
I’m so happy you had a chance to meet Becky. I love her channel too. I hope you had a good break, you’ve been go go go for a long while with Violet being in hospital and back and forth.
Yahooo Bennett ! My husband was/ is a runner still, at 65. He ran all through school and went to D1 college on a full ride. SO ke ruing , it can pay off. After college he ran for Adidas.
Hello an I love Aldi's. That is where I buy my fur crock's an faux fur ughs too very cheap but well made. An their maple cookies r yummy ❤😂🎉
An I have the mushroom an acorn wood wicks candles. They just decor right now for fall. ❤I still have fans running on the daily. So no flames
Those chocolate salted caramels r my favorite thing in the world ❤ an this Aldi's seems to be way better stalked than mine an Alot bigger.
At trader Joe's I buy in the spice eilse is a black garlic it's yummy but I think for the most part theyr kinda expensive.
I was trying to figure out where this Aldi is. It sure wasn't the one in my neighborhood in Dallas.
It is the one that GPS has taken me to 2 times leaving from Irving??
The boys will be so happy with all the goodies. Bennett - congratulations what a race Mom told us about. Keep going !!!!!!!!! Loved the video. Lauren, you can talk about anything and keep me entertained. Thank you for showing us around !!
Wow a full-size frig in your room. How cool is that. Glad you had a wonderful time.
Looks like you had lots of fun at the summit Lauren, well done Bennett on your race win. We have Aldi in uk 🇬🇧 but not trader joes, I love ❤️ seeing the difference in shops and foods and also different names for some veggies and everyday things compared to what we call things here in the uk. Most things are the same 😊thanks for taking us along with you on this trip. ❤
Unfortunately this will not help me. My Husband refuses to eat anything from Aldi, so my last haul was a waste.
Trader Joe's and Costco. Can't live without it. Quality, quality with great prices in comparison to other grocery stores.
Everything at Trader Joe's is delicious and very good price.
Have never gotten how people will spend 40 dollars on a cup when you can buy the same thing for half the price just to prove they have a name brand. The only person I need to impress is myself and I love when I can buy secondhand or very cheap. Would not know a brand name if I tripped over it.
I❤Aldi and have never been to TJ's. Just realized my daughter loves TJ"s and has never been to Aldi's.
I love Aldis and Trader Joe's
Congratulations Bennett 🎉🎉
I just love you and your family. I really do. I am 61, handicapped and live alone. Your videos help keep me from being lonely. You help fill up my life. Thank you and God bless you!
We are so grateful to have you here ❤
Ask the locals where the best prices are in town at local groceries. Wal Mart is usually best. Fall is better at wal Mart, nice local groceries.
So much fun !! Went to Dallas many years ago with Walmart!! Brought home a bag of free goodies from different vendors. You are one of my favorite utubers!! Love watching the boys and Miss Violet !! Love all your family adventures!! 💙🩷💙💙💙💙🩷
Hello from Canada! If you have a key with a round end on it, you can use that instead of a quarter for your cart
Forgot to add this- since you follow Becky, do you also follow Jamerrill Stewart? If not, you should! She's an amazing Momma too!
I live in the Dallas area. I hope you enjoyed your visit. I follow Acre Homestead, too. I think it is great that you got to meet.
Congratulations Bennett!!!! Glad you had a great trip and great gifts! Blessings y'all!
Me again- that maple pumpkin spread is delicious!! After I tasted it, I went back and bought a second jar.
I was just wondering whether you have Aldi, TJMaxx and Dollar Tree and the like...in Alaska. 😮
I hope that you got to visit a few Dollar Trees. Everyone is different.
Enjoy your day. 😊
Good job bennett ! Glad you had a good time in texas lauren ❤
