Having 1:1 time with the kiddos is priceless!! We have (had) a tradition of doing our school shopping 1:1. I took each child separately. They got to choose what stores to go to and where to eat lunch. They loved it! Hope you have a great day, see you tomorrow!! 🙏😎❤
This thrifting video made my day!! You two are awesome shoppers together 😊 i miss this with my daughter time with each other is so important but i know you by now amy and you are dedicated to all of your children ..thank you for all the time you spend to put these videos together for all of us viewers...god bless
Trader Joes’s is one of my weekly or biweekly shopping stores. We have some items that we love to buy from there, one of our favorites is salsa. You can’t just buy one jar, because everyone in our family loves it!
Hey amy, It's always great to spend With family. As you know I live in southern Florida in palm beach county. We have both a trader joe's and Whole foods. I remember somebody Somebody saying that Trader joe's is just a cheaper whole foods
FYI…..for your Instant Tea look around the Koolaid area. Brand Nestles. That is where I always found it for my husband. It has been a couple of years since I bought. Hope this helps 😊🙏🏼
Trader Joe’s is great for people with food allergies, we shop there for my son , he is allergic to all mammalian meats and products. That store is a life saver for him.
Trader Joe's is a part of Aldi's, I heard that sometimes, that you can find their items, at Aldis. This was a fun video, have a great toasty weekend as well.❤😊
Good morning. I love Brooklyn's comment that she needs to get a house to buy lots of things from goodwill My mom use have a bunch of bells. She would get them from vacations or events to remember. Traders Joe's is owned by same parent company that owns Aldi. Whole Foods,.is way out of my budget as well, but does usually have the cleanest of ingredients. They probably have lactose free cheese and other products. Have a terrific Thursday and I will see ya tomorrow
I worked for a lovely Indian family and was treated to a real Chai every morning. It was made by heating milk, with a little sugar and loose leaf black tea, with the spices added. They then strained it as it was poured, topping the mugs up with boiling water to make a delicious drink. I think the spices they used were cardamom, cinnamon, clove, ginger and a couple crushed black peppercorns for added warmth. It was nothing like the ready made mixes you can buy, which disappoints me every time I make Chai!
For a great chai latte: I use the Bengal Spice tea from Celestial Seasonings (I use 2 bags for a really strong flavor) and some of the Califia Cookie Butter creamer. So good!
In the Northeast, we call Whole Foods "whole Pocketbook". But their quality in meat & produce is 1st class. I shop their sales. As for Trader Joes (TJs). -its the BOMB. And they are very dietary issue friendly (dairy/gluten free & vegan). I hope you go back.
Great shopping day Amy. I always wanted to visit a Trader Joe’s but unfortunately there isn’t one close enough to me. Maybe someday. Have a good upcoming weekend.
I do shop at Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Sam's Club, and Farmer Markets.. I know not for everyone, but if you have certain health issues, you are not able to find all the products you need for how you have to eat. Great video!. Next time.
@amymaryon our Plato’s closet just added a kids section and a women’s section. My daughter shops there for my 8 yr old grandson. Got some really good deals she is a pre k4 teacher and she finds lots of her clothes there too
@amymaryon we got family pictures done and frames are so expensive so I went to a bunch of different thrift stores and bought frames that had pictures in them took the back off removed the glass cleaned them then I stained all the different size frames the same color and made me the most beautiful picture wall the mist expensive frame was line 8 dollars and it was a 16x16 def worth it
You wouldn’t believe the stuff I’ve scavenged from thrift store dumpsters. I’ve extensively added to my preparedness paper & ink book library in the past year for free. Sadly, the one thrift store throws away most donated books. Also have a significant cookbook library I’ve scavenged for free. One of the out of print farming books I grabbed out of the dumpster is presently selling for $400 online and on eBay. Recently grabbed some cool seashells, a like-new roasting pan, DVD’s & CD’s galore…. Much more.
We have trader joes. whole foods & tj max. Their prices are just to high. But i have a addiction problem to trader joes corn chips & their cowboy cavier. TJ & WF both are located about 1 mile from my home. TJ has good prices (kinda here & there) esp on their produce. Example: reg yellow / brown onions. Local reg grocery stores run $1 - $1.50 lb. There are $1 or sometimes less EACH. And are the size of a grapefruit. So i generally use 1/2 of their onion & i got plenty. They are huge.
Ooooooo- Thanks for the Cowboy Caviar suggestion! I’ve been wanting to try it, but just haven’t yet. We shop for specific items at Trader Joe’s as well. But we’ll also try new things one at a time. Be well, stay kind and blessings ✨
Goodwill is absolutely terrible. They honestly act like they’re selling brand new items with their prices! I stopped going there 20 years ago when I fund a beat up Nike shirt for $14.99 😭
I'm a trader Joe's shopper for certain items also because they're non GMO or bio engineered food products. Not judging anyone I've food allergies and need to be safe with everything I eat. I've recently again had to remove a food from the things I'm able to eat.
@teresawilliams662 wait, I'm wrong on that being the name brand! So that is just letting the buyer know its the correct variety of plums to be made into prunes.
When I was able to work in my younger years I wore makeup, but now I only wear it to church and rest of the days I don’t, when the pandemic hit and wearing mask I only did eye liner and mascara now I don’t even bother wearing makeup.
Fresh Market has chicken breast and ground beef on sale every Tuesday. I am not sure if you have one around you. I am further south in Florida and on the east side.
I'm tickled each time you mention flamingos. I'm glad I sent the flamingo house warming gifts. I knew it was just a matter of time once you were in Florida. lol My friends call Whole Foods, Whole Paycheck. I like trader joes and they have decent prices on some basics but when I REALLY think about it, it's a processed food and snack store that just makes you feel like you're eating healthy. It's great marketing. They are the sister store of Aldi. Same family. Two brothers but I think they had a falling out. Some of the same products, but TJs has better marketing. It's trendy and the employees are super friendly. Please let us know what you think of the pink stuff. I tried it once and I didn't think it was that great for the price. I LOVE using palmolive dish soap on my bathrooms. It instantly dissolves the soap scum on the sinks and showers and it makes the stainless SHINE. Plus, no fumes. I like the blueberry almond scent the best but the original green makes the stainless shine the best.
Yes...when I first got the flamingos ...I wasn't so sure...now I like them lol ! Transforming to a Floridian for sure . I will let you know ..i thought about doing the dish soap in a brush with dispenser like in our old home...i may do that .. blueberry soap ?? I need to look for that. Thanks Jeanie
I love dragging my husband to thrift store’s I have so much fun. He doesn’t really mind going. He finds some amazing things.
Having 1:1 time with the kiddos is priceless!! We have (had) a tradition of doing our school shopping 1:1. I took each child separately. They got to choose what stores to go to and where to eat lunch. They loved it! Hope you have a great day, see you tomorrow!! 🙏😎❤
You and Brooklyn are such a good shopping team! So cute!
I enjoy spending time with my kids as they are becoming adults
My daughter and I love going thru thrift stores together.
That was a fun video w you
Good Afternoon Amy and Brooklyn 😊 I really enjoyed thrifting with you today it was so fun 🍎🍂🍁🍄✨🙏✨
It was so much fun shopping with you! I love thrifting and a few things I would have snatched up. 😂
Have a great day!
Trader Joe's and whole foods is a great place to find specialty ingredients and organic foods.
This thrifting video made my day!! You two are awesome shoppers together 😊 i miss this with my daughter time with each other is so important but i know you by now amy and you are dedicated to all of your children ..thank you for all the time you spend to put these videos together for all of us viewers...god bless
My Mom would give us a bell when we were sick. It was to call for help/needs. We had to learn not to ring too often.
I'm here can't wait to watch this❤❤
What a fun day going and experiencing new stores.Thank you for sharing your videos .
Trader Joes’s is one of my weekly or biweekly shopping stores. We have some items that we love to buy from there, one of our favorites is salsa. You can’t just buy one jar, because everyone in our family loves it!
You deserve a break! Love all those stores and Trader Joe’s gingerbread people are amazing!
Hey amy, It's always great to spend With family. As you know I live in southern Florida in palm beach county. We have both a trader joe's and Whole foods. I remember somebody Somebody saying that Trader joe's is just a cheaper whole foods
That makes sense ☺️
That was so much fun. 😊❤
Around here, Plato's Closet is often next to a Once Upon A Child. 😊
We have whole foods too!😀
FYI…..for your Instant Tea look around the Koolaid area. Brand Nestles. That is where I always found it for my husband. It has been a couple of years since I bought. Hope this helps 😊🙏🏼
Trader Joe’s is great for people with food allergies, we shop there for my son , he is allergic to all mammalian meats and products. That store is a life saver for him.
Thank you sounds better ❤😊 have a good day.

Brooklyn so helpful
They have a lot of nice things
Good morning. I love Brooklyn's comment that she needs to get a house to buy lots of things from goodwill

Trader Joe’s and Aldi are owned by same company and Whole Foods is expensive but mostly organic❤
Wow what a find! Those statues are expensive. I have one from my son. Forgot what they are called. That's a blessing!!!
Goodmorning Amy. Great vlog. Great stores. Have a fantastic day. ❤❤❤
Oh and the sound is awesome now..👍👍

Those Willow figures are a great deal!!🥰
Trader's Joe is fabulous. They have so many allergy friendly foods. 😊

I googled the unsweet instant ice tea powder and it did come up at a few regular places - just in case you can’t find it.
Really enjoyed your shopping video sister!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hope all is well today from the hurricane Helena.
Good morning ❤ love thrifting and going to goodwill
Morganton furniture peace is from our home town lol 😊 mother daughter shopping is the best 👌

LOL your daughter sounds like, if it doesn't have a use you don't need it.
Oh yes..very practical...very much her momma in my younger days
You need that crock pot… I use mine all the time. Church pot lucks.

I like trader Joe's especially for their spices and certain things but whole foods now that's called whole paycheck😂
Lol agree
Please share the spiced Chia tea you make.
Look in the kool aid isle for instant tea

We call Whole Foods Whole Paycheck 😂
Did you buy Greg the big shell
I didn't ..lol i feel like it would be cheating...we need to find out ourselves lol
❤🎉🙏🏻🙌
In the video when you guys were at trader Joe's you picked up some fruit and you said plums but the package said prunes. Did you get that by mistake?
Prunes are dried plums. 😊 in this case, it was the name brand for the plums, though. Hope that helps!! 😊
@@kindnessmatters4068 oh ok. I didn't know that. Thank you
@teresawilliams662 wait, I'm wrong on that being the name brand! So that is just letting the buyer know its the correct variety of plums to be made into prunes.
Somone commented about a channel called "Ballerina Farm." I can't find that comment now, but anyone loving this channel will adore that family!
Yesss. I watch them all the time! A great great wholesome family channel.
❤
Wonder why that comment is not to be found
Yes enjoy watching too . People can delete their own comments ...it happens
When I was able to work in my younger years I wore makeup, but now I only wear it to church and rest of the days I don’t, when the pandemic hit and wearing mask I only did eye liner and mascara now I don’t even bother wearing makeup.

You know what...in the mountains I would get that deal...didn't know it was everywhere.. I'll be sure to go next time. Thanks
My thrift stores are not that great.
Too many shells
Don't forget to like this video. 😁
I found instant black tea on Amazon.
Hello Amy! I was on the target website and happen to come across the unsweetened ice tea. Maybe target will have it. Hope this helps.
Thank you
Umm.. those are not plums.
