    I love Woodman's. I live in Chicago, and we'll drive up to Wisconsin 3-4 times a year to stock up. Besides the lower prices, Wisconsin has little to no tax on food, while Chicago has one of the highest food taxes in the country. Definitely worth the drive.

    V8 is a good base for vegetable beef soup in winter. When it goes on sale, i buy the low sodium 32 oz. I add bouillon cubes, so dont need added salt. Pour V8 into stockpot then fill the container half full water and pour in. Add cooked hamburger or cooked meat, begin to add the vegetables you like. Extra seasoning you prefer. I bring to boil then simmer a good while. I have even added some elbow noodles close to the end. Its good but the next day after it sits overnight in the frig soaking up all the flavors, its delicious reheated. It thickens too. Fast, simple, delicious.

      Sounds like how my Mother made hers. She seared a roast as the meat. So good!! Her vegetables were from left overs put in a container in the freezer. When it was full, she made the soup. I've been stocking up on V8 for stews and soups using my freeze dried food.

    Since I'm in California in the central valley, it can go from 65° to about 35°, no snow but maybe rain. We don't really need to stock up since it's just me and my husband. We always have enough to last over a week. Being that I'm Mexican-American, I never buy canned refried beans or packaged Mexican rice. Homemade is much better or going to our local Mexican restaurant. All my life grandmother's and my mom, all the aunts made homemade whole beans, masshed beans (refried beans), homemade tortillas. And it saved a lot of money for them. Just buy a bag of pinto beans and reas the directions. I put pinto beans in chili instead of kidney beans. Kidney beans are harder to digest in the system, pinto beans are smaller and softer and easier to digest. Most of family were born here in California but learned a lot of cooking and recipes from long ago relatives from Mexico and Spain..and neighbors who are different ethnicities 😊❤

    I love having a well stocked pantry. And I love doing this restock twice a year. Before winter, and before spring. I am trying to get my family to go in with me and buy a whole cow. But I will have to buy another freezer to do that so I am not pushing the point yet. It is much much less than grocery store beef and if you know the rancher and the quality of beef they produce you know what you are getting. At some point I hope to do same with pork. Her rancher quoted her 2000 dollars for half a cow. But they were willing to sell her the entire cow for 2700 dollars. So with the four households, each taking 1/4 of a cow. That is a great price on beef.

    Hubby and I stay stocked up most of the year with the big push for the holidays. I like to combine a well stocked pantry with meal prepping for the week. I make a menu, shop my home pantry then go to the grocery store for any fresh items if needed then cook once a week. I normally make 3 meals for the 2 of us and we mix and match those for lunches and dinners for the week. I also LOVE the pot pies from HEB here in TEXAS. I buy 4 or 5 at a time and vacuum seal them. They last us a few months in the freezer and taste better than the ones I make. :-)

      I like to do the same. I make a list of meals that I can make with what’s in the pantry and then I check to see what I need every week and just buy those items. It saves on our weekly grocery bill. I also like to do grocery pick up, so not tempted by all those impulse buys.

    Once I finish shopping in November, all of my winter stock up+ will be done except for milk and bread.
    I won't have to think about going out on the super cold days or snowy days here in North Central Iowa this winter.
    My 3 freezers are stocked.
    I am retired and live alone.
    I do have plenty to share with my daughter and her family if needed.

    Enjoying your channel. My Wife Carol and I are retired empty testers up in the NE corner of Indiana. (Under Michigan and next to Ohio).
    I am the "Pantry Man" which when I announce it earns eye rolls from my wife. My first marriage was only my income and was a food struggle, so being able to have items on hand is a big help.
    My question is I use Excel spreadsheets, how do you keep track of your items?

    • @GuilkeysLimitedAdventures
      @GuilkeysLimitedAdventures  15 часов назад

      Hey Pantry Man! When I did the big stock up, I put meal ideas in a phone note for everything I bought. I’ll look through that note to decide what we feel like for supper each week. Then as the year goes on and we start to get lower, I will take an inventory and update my phone note. (I use excel too much at work, don’t want it in my “real life 😂😂)

    • @bobbygeorge4727
      @bobbygeorge4727 15 часов назад

      @GuilkeysLimitedAdventures of course when you say or read "pantry man" you have to do it with "da ta da" as an announcement! I was self taught by a moron on excel! I think I have the year covered pretty good for the stock up. Do you get Randall beans in your area? Carol uses the Great Northern for soup beans and their Pinto for her Roast beef burritos that are legendary in the family. (The Randall beans are sold in a glass jar.) Forgive any Grammer, been almost 50 years since I was in school 😞

I've been saying that she needs to stock up her Pantry...I think you get so much more Pancake Mix when you buy the box..I just use a plastic bottle when mixing it up...esp when I wanna make a FUNNEL CAKE treat...I've made cookies out of cake mix. There's so many options!
    Tonight we are having Shepherds pie (we use Ground Beef, Peas & Carrots) brown gravy mix..diced onion is optional and so is garlic..you can use instant potatoes as well. The Idahoan potatoes are inexpensive and are real potato flakes. . .I really wanna try the 7up biscuits. When I make Biscuits and Gravy I add sausage and a tiny bit of syrup.

    Love your method, just with differnt food. Cook and bake daily, including the 15 animals in the house. I take the pets when a friend passes. They wouldn't be adopted in the traditopnal fashion. Many are old with health care issues. Would be euthanized. I give the best golden years possible.
    Never meal plan as when I do, it costs much more than my budget.
    Go to the butcher for meat and chicken. Then to the fishmonger. Then a local green grocer. They carry lots of locally grown items.
    Costco. Sam's Club, Walmart for non food items. I have a tech free household and no chemicals either. No computer, no internet, no tv, no air fryer, no food processor, no insta pot, I have vintage pressure cookers.
    I do batch cook and freeze in portion size containers.
    Sounds complicated but it isn't for me. In the cooler months, I prepare a huge pot of soup and freeze in portion size.
    Everyone has their method and are all good. There is no right or wrong.

    I don't understand the not-going-because-I-buy-impulsively theory. I glean the store weekly and grab incredible bargains by buying things THAT WE USE on sale and just looking for closeouts, instore specials and the like to add to our stocks and maybe, just maybe find a few things that are affordable that we could not otherwise afford.THAT is not 'impulse', that is finding something nice on a bargain that we would ordinarily want to get, but would be out of budget. We save so much on weekly sales and prices that honestly,I was very surprised at the amounts I saw on the shelves in your store, and that you picked up. Hey, more power to you, but to tell people that they have no willpower is not helpful.

      Then she is NOT TALKING TO YOU. Why is it so hard for you to grasp that she isn’t talking to every human on the planet? But statistically, people buy impulsively because the store is literally designed that way. The way the store is set up uses psychology to get people to buy more. Just because you know better than to fall for it, doesn’t mean the masses don’t!

    2. Actually buy ingredients to make your own mixes or pre-packaged convenience (like from scratch pancake mix or from scratch biscuits using flour, lard, and buttermilk)
    4. Ditch the kuerig & use only brewed coffee
    3. Make your own sauces, salsa or pico de gallo, and salad dressings from scratch.
    4. Buy more pure, single ingredients then make your recipes
