Hey guys! In today’s video I am sharing with you my meal planning secrets! These are all of my meal planning tips on how to save …
What do you like to do for baby food? When my baby started eating solids I struggled trying to plan/make different kinds of purées and also hated having to buy it. I found it to be so expensive and frustrating for me! Would love to hear your thoughts🥰
Hi Abby, I was wondering if you have considered selling just the meal planning part from your budget kit. I currently have a yearly financial budget binder from the Budget mom that Im using, but I dont have all the meal planning sheets in it, I really like yours alot. And I would absolutely love to buy just the meal planning sheets to use, I really like the ones you made that you used & showed in this video. Please let me know if that ever comes available and I will buy it! Thanks, also loved this video, so helpful!
I can sympathize with the breathlessness. I suffered with that during both pregnancies. Great video.
Hi Abby! I purchased the Planner on Wednesday and am really excited to use it. I am curious though if I will receive an email with a PDF to download? I've only received an order confirmation letting me know i would get another email once my order shipped. I was under the impression I would be able to print it almost immediately as I opted to download it, not have it mailed to me. I also sent you and email, just haven't heard back. I know things take time but I'm a little confused as to what the next step is. TIA!
Great plan. 😁
We buy staples, then buy what's on sale and go from there. Having a small freezer helps very much
Random question, is this budget strictly for food only. Or does it include household items that you would get at the grocery store such as dishsoap, paper towels, etc.?
I wish we had an Aldi! I miss that place! They always had the best deals.
Thanks for all your tips. Very helpful. I live alone and make bigger meals and freeze them. I like the meal plan idea. Love your videos!
Hi Abby! I love your channel 🥰
I made your recipe for fried rice with the eggs, soy sauce & mixed vegetables. It is really teally good 😃
Sybil is old enough to say "bye" to us 💞 where did that time go? And, we're all very excited that we are going to meet your new baby soon. 🥳
Your overall budget guidance and grocery shopping regiments have helped me tremendously ❤❤
I love pick up but I can't use my WIC card which provides a decent amount of food for me each month for my daughter 😢 i wish they'd change it!
Take it easy girl!❤❤❤
I love shopping at Aldi!
I'm wondering how the $100/person/month works with a one-person household. I spend about $50-60 a week for myself, and that's making 2-3 dinners per week plus breakfast, lunch, and snacks. My baby is on formula so he's definitely over $100/month LOL
I found your videos about month ago and used everything you talked about about in one of your other videos on budgeting..Meal planning has been a life saver for my budget. I REALLY enjoy all your videos and keep sharing them. They easy to follow very informative. Thank you
Hi Vera —-You're getting Big 😊
I love shopping at Aldi's they're very cheap so is Walmart. You're glowing in this video I'm so happy for you have a safe delivery
aldi and lidl is where its atttt for grocery shopping on a budget!
Thank you so much for sharing!! We have a United in our small town which is awesome!! The biggest town with aldi and Walmart is 50 miles. We've been debating is it cheaper with gas to buy local or drive! Praying everything goes well for you and baby!
great job
The cat was cracking me up
This WAS super helpful!! Very planned out process. Thank you for sharing!!!
You were very helpful and thank you for sharing. 😊
You are one smart cookie. You are a great teacher of all things
Thank you for sharing this with us! 💕
I love grocery pickup however I'm not sure if my Aldi does it, I'll have to check. I was using Walmart pickup and loved it especially because I felt like it saved money. However, I have recently stopped using Walmart pickup because every time I put in an order they would take out the amount of the groceries ordered from our checking account and then when I pick up the groceries that amount taken out will then be put back into our account and then days later another total taken out, this totally messed my checking account up. I know they have rollbacks, substitutes, etc. but they need to learn how to do it like Instacart I never have this problem. Anyway, I hope everything goes well with the new baby! Thanks for the tips!
Hi, Vera! 😁
What kind of refrigerator is that?? I love all the drawers at the bottom.
We would have sandwich 🥪 on our kids game night or crock pot meal anything easy.. i would meal plan frozen meals for after baby days.. great job meal plans
This was great, thanks for sharing with us. Hope your delivery goes well!
Planning is definitely key to staying in budget! Our nearest Walmart is 25 miles away… nearest Aldi is 30 miles away… nearest grocery store is 4 blocks. I shop seasonally and majorly take advantage of sales. Thanks for sharing. ❤️
These are such great tips! I’ve been getting caught up with buying things I don’t need. Mainly when I see things on sale at Kroger for a really good price, I buy them even when I don’t need it. Trying to do majority of my shopping at aldi and just get a few essentials at Kroger each week. Thanks for your tips and motivation!
How do you include house hold essentials in the budget. Do you set a different budget with that or does it get included with the grocery budget? like toilet paper, shampoo, soap..laundry soap????
Totally can tell you’re a teacher, you have a way of explaining things very clearly and easy to understand! Thanks for the tips
Love this video. I was just telling my husband we gotta do better. We spend so much at Walmart each week and it’s mostly impulse buy. I need to start planning.
I may have missed it, Do you count cat food & cat litter, toilet paper, etc within your grocery budget, or is that separate?
Great budgeting and shopping. We don’t have Aldi in SA so my go to grocery store is H‑E‑B which is always a bit more expensive. But I definitely shop their meal deals and combo loco. Tyfs
Sorry if you mentioned this and I didn't hear that part but is the $500 a month budget for groceries and supplies? Such as diapers and cleaning products?
TY…Great tips.
Good job…thanks for sharing.
