    Winco is our cheapest store. Great job on this analysis! 👏

      Thank you! 😁 And I have heard good things about Winco - and their bulk deals!

      @joyfullythriving yes their bulk section is amazing and the produce is priced well

      Shop the front page ads for the national stores- then the rest at Winco. Remember, they only take debit - no credit. 🤑

    This is a very well done analysis!! A true "home economist" approach. Buying groceries can be a very expensive venture if not given some intentional preparation ahead of time. I have used this same approach for years - it is a tried and true approach. I do plan my meals but I plan based on what I have or what sales I have been able to shop. We have those four stores within close proximity. I shop all four and shop the sales. I also shop for mark downs and have been able to find great mark downs in all the areas you outlined. Thank you for this detailed study!!!!

    • @joyfullythriving
      @joyfullythriving  Месяц назад

      Thanks for your agreement that this strategy really can work! A tried and true approach is definitely worth sharing. Like you, I plan my meals around the sales and that really is a huge source of savings!

    I have found the exact same thing, Aldi every day prices are better but I get the best sales at meijer and Kroger.. sometimes even Sam’s is a better deal. So I go everywhere

      Shopping the sales is a great way to stretch your budget - especially when you plan your meals around the sales!

  • @susansutherland7117

    Thanks for a great video. It is obvious how much time and effort you put into this research. Up until last year I did all my shopping at Publix. (I’m in northwest Georgia.) I’ve had to switch and do the majority of my shopping at Walmart. I still like to take advantage of the “bogo” deals at Publix. The nearest Aldi to me is about 30 minutes away. After watching your video I think I need to make a trip to Aldi to see if I can save enough money there to make the trip worthwhile. Thanks again for your hard work!

    • @joyfullythriving
      @joyfullythriving  Месяц назад

      I think that is smart to do majority of your shopping at Walmart but still take advantage of the Bogo deals at Publix. And it would be interesting next time you are close to Aldi to compare prices and do some stocking up! Even if it is only once every couple months, it might be worth the savings - especially on pantry items!

  • @sharynmuzik2368
    @sharynmuzik2368 Месяц назад +2

    Hi Kristin, I look at the gas used: I rarely shop @ Aldi since it is 35min away and shop sales only @ Ralphs 10min, Costco 10min and spend most of my grocery money @ Trader Joes 3min away 😊

    • @joyfullythriving
      @joyfullythriving  Месяц назад

      Gas money is definitely a factor! Time is money. For me, these stores are all within 5 minutes of each other - and all 5 to 10 minutes from my home, so I can easily shop there as I am running errands. Good for you at knowing where to find the best deals - for you!

  • @journeyofamidwestquilter
    @journeyofamidwestquilter Месяц назад +4

    Quick question: When you grocery shop, do you prefer to use the cash envelope system (such as Dave Ramsey) or do you prefer to use your debit card? I am thinking about switching over to a cash only system for grocery shopping, just to see if that helps me think more about what I am buying and how much I am spending. Thank you!

    • @joyfullythriving
      @joyfullythriving  Месяц назад +1

      Good question! I actually use a credit card (which I pay off every month) and keep a running tally on the Keep app on my phone. Since I have been shopping on a budget this way for years, it works for me. That said, I do highly recommend the cash system, especially if you are trying to stick more closely to your budget. It will definitely hold you more accountable!

  • @rev.ruthe.gallot9103
    @rev.ruthe.gallot9103 Месяц назад +2

    thank you for all of the detail. I shop pretty much the same way. I am fortunate that I have an Aldi, a Shaws (the New England branch of Albertsons which I believe has been or is about to be taken over by Kroger) and a Hannaford (local New England chain) all clumped together within the equivalent of a city block. So, doing price comparisons with their on-line flyers I can shop at all three or any combination easily. For some people, the travel may not offset the price difference. I shop Shaws for only their loss leader sales and use of their store loyalty rewards which are the best. I shop Aldi (tha absolute lowest on most things) for non sale things I need and Hannaford for the sales and items that Aldi does not carry (plus they have great loyalty card bonuses and rewards like free items which I will gladly accept). I am one of those people who doesn't shop Walmart (which is also in that "clump" of stores near me) but with all of the other options I am fortunate to have not have felt any need to go there.

    • @joyfullythriving
      @joyfullythriving  Месяц назад +1

      Way to go! I love how you know exactly which store to go for the best deals, and utilize them all! Well done! And yes! My stores are within a mile of each other, so it makes it easy for me too. Not as easy as you, but still definitely worth the time for me!

    I shop at save a lot and town country the closest aldis or Walmart is about 50 miles away only shop there when I need to go to the city

    • @joyfullythriving
      @joyfullythriving  Месяц назад +1

      We had a Save a Lot when I lived in a smaller town and I was always pretty pleased with their prices. Makes sense to shop the sales there and only stock up when you go into the city. Smart shopper move! 👏

    We no longer get weekly sale papers from our local grocery stores. We are supposed to go online and look at the sales. Have you found a way to streamline looking at the huge number of sale items-even though some sales are only saving a few Pennies on some of the items? My husband and I are empty nesters. I really don’t like sifting through baby items, diapers, pet products, and liquor when those aren’t items I would ever buy. I like the physical sale papers where they sometimes cluster a bunch of similar products in a box to highlight all the baby or pet items together.

    • @joyfullythriving
      @joyfullythriving  Месяц назад

      It is frustrating. I miss getting the sale flyers too! As for streamlining it? I simply look at the ads online, where they are still grouped together so I can quickly scan through the items. I find it easier to look at the digital ads as compared to a list of all the sale items because you are right. That can definitely be overwhelming!

      Aldi ads online are easy to shift through if you have an Aldi.

    i wonder how much this will change once labor day is over since aldis suppose to slash prices for the summer season

    • @joyfullythriving
      @joyfullythriving  Месяц назад +1

      I looked at some of the prices Aldi is slashing and not all of those were included on my price list so they shouldn't affect the results that much. Plus, I gathered most of the prices in early April before the roll backs. I do think it is an interesting concept for Aldi to attempt! 👏
