Very sad to me when people are attacking a single senior lady just trying to get by in this crazy world!! Don't watch her if you can't be polite! The comments on here are so rude and mean!! I am a single 70 year old senior disabled lady myself! So what if she goes to the frikking food pantry once in awhile!!! Give her a break!!! I think her channel is very interesting and informative!!! Thank you Rhonda for your channel!❤
@@jerseystotler3615 Her Name Is Rhoda by the way, not Rhonda...at least get the name right if you're gonna make a rant about the people who actually watch her ...sheesh!!🤪
Yes she’s teaching all of us bout these things because she knows how to do them. There are only a couple of prepers that say Only but what you like Look for sales Get the best bag for your buck.
Rhoda Stone you are a treasure, don't let the scoffers take the wind out of your sails. Misery loovees company, you are too good for them. You educate and motivate and show how to live in these tough and uncertain times. Blessings!
Kathie , I volunteer at a food pantry and we want you to come. It is there to make your life a little easier and there is no stigma attached to it. Enjoy the gift your community has enabled you to have.
Hello Rhoda. I'm glad you got some good items from the food pantry. 😊 Thank you for sharing your ideas. I pray you stay safe, healthy, and happy. God bless.❤😊
Thanks for being you Rhoda, I can always depend on you to be on you tube, you’re a hard worker and that speaks of your character, you have given me lots of motivation to go to the food pantry and not stop going since it’s the only thing I am able physically to do, wish I could work 🥰
Thank you for the hints and tips. I am a senior, disabled, on a fixed income, but have NEVER been to the Food Pantry. I figure someone needs it worse and am embarrassed because of how I was raised.
There's no shame in getting a little help, especially nowadays with the prices high of things. So if yours is one of those that you have to qualify for and you qualify go because it actually helps them to get more funding as well. Which means they can help even more people. And there's no shame in getting the help.😊
OMG ! I live in FL and got 3 of those for $10 and some change not marked down just a sale so shocked by your food costs compared to ours pork is usually a fairly manageable price but beef here is outrageous and very few markdowns available here but shelf labels are not always trustworthy but so glad I ignored my husband and have been buying whenever I can get them so I Have tons of beef steaks and roasts but since someone broke in and shopped my refrigerator and sold my bin of hamburger I have been having trouble to restock it because beef and chicken are so much higher in cost than pork . But still was fortunate, myom bought my husband and I am Omaha beef christmas gift box ... such a blessing this is 😊
We have a smaller grocery store that belongs to a big chain grocery in our area. We often go there if we only need 1 thing. Anyway I was in the isle with nuts and store brand cashews were $12.99! Last year they had a brand name aerosoli whip cream for $16!!!!!! Super shocking to me. I am Midwest.
@tightwadonpurpose7003 I grew up in Yorktown IN when it was still a small township and my mom would send us down to the IGA a small market then really older with wooden floors, fond memories, but moved here during a blizzard there, that's when they still had a butcher and with a meat case not a whole department lol
I have a giant bag of those jars too. 😂 I use the disposable containers for my daughter’s packed lunches, and I use the small lidded glass jars for homemade spice mixes! I store homemade taco seasoning, poultry seasoning, ranch seasoning, etc. in them. When I get sick of them I just throw them all out. ❤😂
RhodaI love watching your videos but I must have missed the one where you explained the concept the no spend plan. I understand that there are things you need to purchase (TP, bread, eggs, milk) but seems you are buying something every day besides the necessary replacement items. I’m not being obtuse, i’m just trying understand the concept. Please explain the idea.
The no spend plan is no spending money unless you want to spend money for something. Otherwise, no spending! I think it's Rhoda's best plan yet and I've been following it successfully in 2025 with no issues ❤
Rhoda’s gym attendance motivated me to go on a regular basis Never been to a gym until now 🙌 I am vegetarian so don’t buy a lot of things she does or use some of her recipes but she got me in the gym and the fry bread and vegetables dishes are really “tasty” as she would say Her intention to help others is pure and that can be a rare thing these days❤️ Thanks Rhoda and birdies for your fun videos🙏
Hi Madam I enjoyed your video! One thing I noticed is that with a few small changes in your video description and tags, you could reach an even wider audience. It’s just a small SEO tweak that could make a big difference. I’d be happy to share some tips if you’re interested!
Guys are always giving you free food - cake slices, 7/11 sandwiches, wraps and salads, etc I'd like a video on how to activate those bonuses. Thank you
You need 4 oz or 1/4 lb meat a day, not 1/4 ounce. LOL. Before you take shots, ask for the medical disclosure, then take the time to read the side effects and the part that absolves the drug company from liability. Clean hands are actually more important than a mask that really doesn't stop viruses.
Nobody is trying to “get to her”, they’re expressing an opinion which they are entitled to. If she can’t take the fact that everyone will not agree with everything she does, best not to have a channel.
@@Muzikgirl67 Yes. Help for compulsive shopping might be in order, lol 😂! But seriously, she's a shrewd, successful business woman with several streams of income. She knows what content works for her channel. I don't take anything she says very seriously.
@lisag0218 I was thinking in terms of her RUclips channel. She's pretty successful with that & seems to know how to generate likes and subscribers. If she has a limited income, I'm pretty sure that making more money from You Tube is a priority for her. Hate to see her do it by exploiting food pantries.
Even if there's a low turnout at a food pantry, it doesn't mean that it's ok to take food just to add to a stockpile (& use for videos). Food pantries work hard to avoid waste. The volunteers sometimes get leftovers. They also give surplus to churches, who feed their needy families and homeless. It goes to senior centers, small neighborhood pantries, shelters, soup kitchens, low income rehab facilities, low income senior housing, even public school pantries. So it's most considerate to think about the truly hurting, before showing up just to add to the hoard. It's a concept that most people of faith can relate to.
Someone finally had the nerve to say the H word hoard. This woman obviously has some issues that are not being addressed, but it is very clear that she is a food hoarder. If you look at the glimpses we have had in her refrigerator It is packed to the gills not to mention the food that is stashed everywhere else under her tables and in her closet yet she’s still going to the food pantry And taking food from people who may really need it. I’m a senior I live on my Social Security, but I don’t go to the food pantry because I don’t feel like I truly need it compared to other people. I hope Rhoda lives 100 years but when she passes all of that food, most likely will have to be thrown away by her son. it’s a very sad situation.
@kathieponder7708 I worked with food pantries for several years. They make every effort to keep food out of the trash. We could always find takers from other charities. The only food that went in the trash was spoiled.
Encouraging people in going to food pantry is great but when Rhoda dresses down to look worse than she normally does on videos isn't being truthful. No Barbie look for her if going to food pantry. 🤥
I think it's more of that old school mentality, that I have to look 1 step from homelessness in order to 'qualify' myself. When in reality they don't care what you're wearing. Neither do the people pulling up to the pantry driving Range Rovers and the like.
Rhoda is complicated,even to herself. There's definitely some cognitive changes,and addictive behaviors going on. Yes she does dress down for the food pantry,it's so obvious.
@@wanderingspirit3264Yes even if she is as a hoarding problem she's still helping and teaching other's,that's what her channels about and it's her life.,if somethings upsetting someone they don't have to watch,posting bad comments isn't going to help,if you been watching Rhoda long

Are You going to start your channel back up ? Your comment would make a good vlog 🥹

@@fayfaust5954 There is no plan for a no spend. She still buys whatever she wants.
I think 🤔 she means spend but only on cheap stuff an all she buys thinks she needs so she doesn't run out because stuffs so costly.
@@Mhel2023😀
She wants you to shop in the stockpile first.
I love those little potatoes 🥔!
Rhoda’s gym attendance motivated me to go on a regular basis
Never been to a gym until now 🙌

Yes, I would like to know that as well.

I enjoy watching her if yall cant be nice get off her channel
True!
Your hair looks great!

So ..how many days did Rhoda's "no spend year" last? Has she even went one day since January 1 without buying something? Just curious...🤣🤣🤣🤣

She is a senior citizen and I am sure by numbers doesn't make much on you tube. Also lots of food ends up in trash

@kathieponder7708 Apparently she has additional income, plus Social Security.
I know seniors who budget, shop carefully & don't need the pantries.

It’s not about what she looks like. It’s about her being a senior. She’s not going to get turned down because of her clothes.
I think it's more of that old school mentality, that I have to look 1 step from homelessness in order to 'qualify' myself. When in reality they don't care what you're wearing. Neither do the people pulling up to the pantry driving Range Rovers and the like.
@@DeeDeeDoodle68 It's all about strategic image .
Rhoda is complicated,even to herself. There's definitely some cognitive changes,and addictive behaviors going on. Yes she does dress down for the food pantry,it's so obvious.
She wasn't dressed down she just didn't have in any make up an was tired
Food pantry hauls = exploitative video content for several days. 😮
Don't like it? Skip it.
@TXJan0057 Yep. Many of us do.
Thanks for the reminder.
You people need to stop it. You don’t know the person or any persons situation. She is doing the best she can and appears helping many people.
