Hey family!!! A lot of y’all asked if we would do they Extreme Budget Grocery Challenge! Today we deliver! I set our budget to $50 for a whole week for 6 people.
Good morning another fab vlog I love the idea of the peach cobbler will have to see if we have a recipe here in the uk for that it sounds and looks amazing xx
So interesting!
A wonderful video! Folks need to see these type of videos for budgeting. Save on groceries and invest for retirement or kids’ education. It will be here before you know it. Blessings!
Great video. Great ideas too
This is a great challenge as some people really don’t have a lot of money left for their food budgets. (I certainly remember when we didn’t. I only wish I would have had this for some ideas.) so Falon, I think it’s a great idea to keep doing them.
You did so good hi from Australia im putting this on my facebook group page its called Grocery food hauls bargains and frugal tips i hope you dont mind Godbless xx
Martha white recipe I have used over 20 years. Love it for cornbread
Watching while in labor with my little guy trying to relax 😳😬
Bologna, cheese and a fried egg 🤤 one of my favorite sandwiches ever!!!!! Now I want one!! I need to do this right now working on a shop my pantry…gotta save some money to move outta state!! And repair our truck!
😘😘😘. DANG…..this was a good idea and brought back so many memories. As a kid I remember counting all the coins in coffee can for potatoes bread and eggs. Thought we were rich if able to get ground beef. Brother and I go to store cus momma needed to tend to little ones BUT do think she was smart. She knew clerk or others take pity on us if not have exact change and they often did. Are a lot of potato soup and dad made eggs in so many ways. Not know we were poor just happy and always looked forward to better weather and more jobs for dad. Fried bologna was bacon on the side and so many onion or tomato sandwiches was the best. Mashed banana and peanut butter together so wouldn’t go through it so fast was a feast for a king. And of course beans bean beans with windows wide open at night. Yup we never knew different but when weather good we ate like everything was a treat and saved for a rainy day again. I grew up and made sure to learn to garden cus things were tight ….. had great goats milk I milked twice a day and made yogurt and cheese every week (kids had allergies to cows milk). And no Titus our milk had no bad taste or a smell….it was very sweet and rich. Falon this was awesome video in many ways and do believe it’s worth doing again. People can learn ya don’t need all the extras that have helped to make so many overweight and not healthy. Biscuits and cornbread can make some great desserts too. Oh boy …..love those Manley breaks too. He’s definitely cuter than the Gerbers baby 👶. Let’s do this again ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘😘😘😘💕💕💕💕💕
I had leftover spaghetti for dinner.
I’d never tire of beans and cornbread.
Haven’t had a bologna sandwich in ages – I’d have mustard instead. I used to like cowboy hats (fried bologna with a scoop of mashed potatoes and half’s slice of cheese).
The breakfasts look so good!!
Tyler is rocking the big brother helper! Manley looked so adorable!
those are the kinds of meal we ate when I was growing up. I hated soup beans but would eat them because my mom wouldn't fix me something else. It was eat it or go hungry. She would make fried potatoes and onions to go with the soup beans and I liked that. My dad hunted and fished so we almost always had deer meat to eat and fresh fish in the spring and summer. Mom and dad always raised a big garden and they also raised chickens mostly for butchering. At times there would be squirrel or rabbit or frog legs to eat. Fresh morel mushrooms was a spring delicacy that we all loved to have.
Well that was pretty cool. I'd love to see your other ideas on the $50 budget for a week. ❤
I love this video Falon!!!!This reminds me of my childhood and raising my children.
Wow that takes some creativity. Great job!!!
This was great I definitely think you should do more . Anyway you can think of to save money these days . I mean imagine the savings if you did this challenge at least 1 week a month . I have made a lot out of nothing so it's doable if you can shop right . My go to for at least 2 meals was chicken and rice with cornbread or biscuits and of course beans . Looking forward to seeing more I know once you get going you,ll think of plenty of recipes. Have a wonderful day and God Bless 💖💖
Can you do more videos like this please!!
Love y’all🤗❤️
Hi this brought back memories of when we were first married too Fallon, we only had a small budget with 3 children and we used to spend £50.00 per week like you I used to bake and make a lot of meals from scratch it’s surprising what you can you do when you have to thanks for sharing x
You did great with that budget. It's too extreme for me though. LOL. But when my boys were small I definitely always had a budget and it amazed me how creative I could get. Thank you for sharing!!
Great job,good to learn these skills,some time it might be necessary to be on a tight budget. Been there done that. When kids were coming up.had 4 kids,3 boys can really pack the food in. Enjoy watching watching Titus cook with you. He can be a hoot. Baby is so sweet an growing so fast. Luv your videos. Some times I don't watch until midnite,but never miss it. Luv to all Joyce from Mich. Only an inch of snow tonite,but it sticks.
I’ve never had grits😅they look good😋
Great job !! I would love to see more videos like this !!
Can u get golden eagle syrup? It is great on corn bread. Live pinto beans and corn bread with onions and catsup.
Yes yes yes!! More like this!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
I was raised on beans and cornbread, and fried potatoes and cornbread. You can get really full on those meals. Our money was tight, but we ate these meals because we loved them! Great job on your extreme budget and meals.
You did a really good job!!!! I love pinto beans with onions. You can put dumplings in the beans, too. My mama stretched everything. She creamed corn & peas to make more for our family. She added bread to ground beef to make more. I was an adult before I ate a real hamburger. Beef wasn’t served often. Flat ribs were cooked to make veggie soup.We did have our own hogs, chickens, milk, butter & eggs. We had a garden so that helped a lot. She canned everything she could.
My hubby & I have a garden also. I can & freeze veggies, fruits & berries. Gardens really help but they do keep you busy.
Good night! See y’all tomorrow!
❤️
You know there is a saying, "Hunger is the best sauce." I think it means when you're really hungry, you'll eat what you have and be glad. You came up with lots of good meals, Falon. I told someone about your wonderful peach cobbler. Also, your family were such good sports about this challenge. Thanks so much for sharing. (:
Loved it!!! Takes me back to my younger days. I can remember all those pinto, cornbread and onion suppers. It made me who I am. I really enjoy this video, so yes ma'am do some more! I was gonna do a monthly basic shop tomorrow but Falon girl you have changed my mind I am gonna do the $50 a week challenge. My sushi lovin soon to be (21st) 15 yo is in for a BIG surprise, lol. Love y'all and danged if I ain't plumb excited!! Love y'all, Blessings!
In my Mexican kitchen, a bowl of pinto beans with raw onion is an absolute favorite… but instead of corn bread, I serve hot buttered flour tortillas for dippin’. 😉💕
