- Eden tagged along for this shopping trip. Today we've skipped the online Walmart order and are picking everything up in the store. For some reason we didn't need much and only spent a total of $400. This month had an extra Wednesday so we ran out of paper towels and toilet paper before the shopping day. We picked up a lot of school supplies on clearance which was great! We're starting back to school in 3 weeks and we were able to pick up our supplies super cheap. We also stopped at Office Depot to pick up new binders for everyone and we made a stop at Teacher's Corner to do some browsing. We also walked through Dollar Tree and picked up a few things. We were amazed that the lady in the checkout ahead of us spent $180 at Dollar Tree!

I just have to share my Walmart story with you. I had to do some shopping today, not a lot because I have to use an amigo cart. When the basket is filled, I'm done. lol I was at the check out line and this very sweet young lady in front of me offered to help me unload the basket to the register. When I got to the parking lot, someone had parked so close to my van that I could not get the cart in so had to park it at the back and because I use a cane, could only take one large or a couple small bags to put in my van. And, they were so close that with my side slider door open, I had to maneuver sideways. As I got back to the cart for trip 2, a kind young man had stopped his vehicle right in the lane, jumped out and helped me bring the rest to my van. I get teary eyed again just typing this out. My hip was aching so badly today and I know they just don't know how grateful this old gal was for that help! Anyhow, I felt the need to share that. :-)
God sent you some helping hands today!
There are a lot of good people out there. Unfortunately, they don't make the front page of the newspaper. I'm glad you got to meet two of them today. God bless you!
debbieomi that is awesome. I am so glad someone helped you. God bless dear.
I'm so glad this young man stopped to help you. There are some kind people in our world. I find that kindness attracts kindness.
Those were some really good deals on school supplies!
Ikr ! The crayola 92 is insane ! The pack for 92 is only 2,50$??? Here we can get a pack of 12 for 2,50$ ~_~
YIKES
I live in Australia, that same box of crayons cost $12. Wish i could get them for $2.50
I'm going to guess they cost that much in other countries is because they're produced in America. Just about everything that's produced in another country cost a arm and leg if you buy it in another (except china). I remember seeing a box of lucky charms cost like 10 dollars in the UK. Crazy..
I really liked the Mother daughter outing it's so important for Eden she is getting there preteen LOL
Elizabeth A Daly shes 7
I don’t think I’ve ever met a Mom so patient and soft spoken as Andrea. She just loved and enjoyed her children so much. 💕
How I love Eden! Her Mamas lil helper
I'm not religious in any way, but I must say, I'm glad you take such comfort in your faith, being a mother to that many children takes a strong woman.
You have so many great ideas for using your space wisely and even these shopping videos, watching all the deals, makes me realize I'm not as careful with my money as I thought!
Loved your "mini haul!"
What a great helper and wonderful companion Eden is! You're a very lucky mom (though I don't really think "luck" has a whole lot to do with that!). :-)
I guess it's years of experience because your grocery cart is packed so neatly. I have been eating for years but my grocery cart still looks a mess!
I guess years of experience hasn't helped me! Lol. But of course you have a wonderful little helper with you!!!!
I live in a very remote area also so shopping trips are limited for us as well. I wanted to tell you about boxed.com I use them for my toilet paper and paper towels. They are very reasonable priced and free shipping past a certain amount.
EEKS! I guess if it's not easy getting to a big grocer like Walmart, this is a good alternative. I just checked out a dozen or so items and not one of them was the same or cheaper than I can buy at Walmart. I am in a rural area but thankfully, Walmart is about 45 minutes away and Meijer (a mid-west regional chain) is about 20 minutes. I feel so sorry for people having top pay those kinds of prices and ever grateful that my area is very middle track in pricing (from what I've seen from many haul videos from around the country).
Kristan F ... Thank you for sharing the boxed.com link. Although I shop only for myself I have a friend that is a foster parent and often takes in children on an emergency basis (no family members in the area to care for children, etc). I forwarded the link to her so she can hopefully eliminate some trips to the store yet remain prepared for those precious little ones in her care. First order ships free encourages further research. Great marketing strategy.
That's what I felt about it, too. I got a flyer for it in the mail a few months ago and was excited to check them out, but the first few things I looked at were quite a bit higher in price than I'm used to paying at Walmart, so I didn't really dig into it. Maybe in time I'll check it out again because the idea seems great!
I guess probably different states different prices that makes a difference also. I buy their "off brand" and where I'm from the price is very much compatible. Anyway sorry I didn't think about other states having different prices 😕☺
Kristan F not sure if you have Amazon prime but I find their prices on tp and paper towels and such to be cheaper than going to the store and free 2 day shipping !
Its so great to get to see Eden spend the whole day with you! Shes becoming such a sweet and caring young lady
Enjoyed your shoppingvideo! Eden is such a sweet and helpful girl!
Eden is a sweetheart!
What a fun shopping day with Eden! I love your teacher's store. Our town's store closed a few years ago, I loved it because I got not only some homeschool things but fun educational toys as gifts too. I feel your pain about running out of TP; despite getting our toilet paper from Amazon subscribe & save we occasionally run out too. I'm curious: do the binders you purchased last more than one school year? I have some cheaper one from Staples that have lasted quite a few years but since we now use ACE they are getting much more use and therefore wearing out quicker than before.
I usually buy new binders every year. Some of the kids are harder on them than others. Asher and Justus usually tear up the inside pockets by the end of the year. Thomas and Eden could probably keep the same binder for years. In the end, I just enjoy getting everyone a fresh new binder to start the year.
I have been using that app out of milk and I really enjoy it. Before I would loss my shopping list and have to start over. Now I always have my list. Where did you get your pizza cutter? That is a nice one
I got it from Amazon. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FH1X7J8/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Have you added the monthly Walmart shop, the (4) weekly shops, the Azure online shop for a monthly total ? I was just curious what that amt would be
Also for toilet tissue why not purchase 5-8 large packages so you never run out ? I understand limited storage
Does your area have Wal-Mart grocery pick up yet? I've been utilizing that because my hubby works so much and five kids in the grocery store...no, thanks! It's crazy trying to keep an eye on everyone and shop at the same time. Lol.
Yes, it does, but I enjoy my monthly outing so I probably won't utilize unless there's a compelling reason to. I do think it's a wonderful thing, though!
Make sure you got the clearance price on your school supplies because they can be put in the wrong spot. It was fun seeing Eden shop with you a big help! Pizza and donuts look so good!
I watched carefully as she rang everything up and they were all right, thankfully!
Also, I was thinking about you today and wondering if you ever got any peppermint plants?
No I have not been able to get them, I was going to get seeds but someone told me they are hard to start. I had my son try Home Depot, Lowes and Walmart with no luck. Thank You for asking.
I was thinking that mints tend to root pretty easily. I wonder if you could buy some fresh peppermint at the grocery store or a farmer's market and see if you could get it to root. www.gardenersworld.com/how-to/grow-plants/how-to-grow-mint-from-cuttings/
I did not think about that will have to look into that. God Bless you and you family I love Tom's pizza's and bread sticks.
Eden is growing up to be a truely beautiful young lady inside and out.
Eden is so precious, she needs her Mommy so, just breaks my heart!
nik nak me too! Eden also looks so much like her momma that I feel like the younger girls will look to her as they get older as well. She is the perfect first daughter! My heart aches and I wish My hubby and I lived closer to them. I would love to help them on a daily basis.
nik nak Eden is my favorite. I don’t know why but she’s such a sweet and gentle soul. She’s just like her momma. She touches my heart ❤️❤️❤️
I just love how sweet and well mannered Eden is. I feel so bad for everyone, but especially for Tom and the girls for losing Andrea. I could imagine that it would be hard to go through puberty without a Mom. I hope one day Tom will find a mother figure for the kids. I know nobody could compare to Andrea for the Mills family. I think that the little girls will look up to Eden more now that Andrea has passed. God bless this family.
What a sweetheart your daughter is to go shopping with. I'm so thankful for your long vlogs, thank you!
Eden is such a sweet girl. Your Mama raised a beautiful young lady Eden💐
Such an enjoyable shopping trip. I have no family so I literally shop only for myself. It is interesting to see how you manage everything for your bustling family of 10 plus Knuckles (I hope I spelled his name correctly), and the rabbit. Eden is such a gentle, sweet-spirited and helpful young lady. Both you and Tom teach your children by example - certainly not always the easiest path but obviously it is the best path. All of your children are to be admired. Awesome parenting skills!
Eden is so sweet. As the oldest girl, she will be a good role model for her sisters. She seems to have enjoyed doing things with Andrea, and she will have the best memories of her mom to tell the younger ones.
Love the way Eden smiles at her mother. Nothing better than being with your mom. Andrea made a enormous impact on her children. They will always have special memories of her.
What a sweet helper.
This is such a good video for the kids especially Eden. I remember going shopping with my mom and spending time with her as a kid but to have it on video! What a blessing. The kids will be able to see and remember what their mom was like, how she spoke, and how much she thought about them while she was shopping. We are but mortal beings on Earth but we live on forever in our children's memories. 💜🙏🏽💜
What a good helper Eden is for her mom, in this video.
Praying for your family!
Tom, Eden is such a sweetheart, she will be a great help through these next years!
Andrea I love how you smile at your children. When you looked over at Eden and smile after saying how much you spent at the dollar tree. My heart melted. I have seen that same beautiful and loving smile to each of your children. You are raising your children with kindness and love. How lucky the rest of the world is to be blessed with the Mills kids.
Those school deals where amazing. Love your grocery haul friend. You are amazing!!!! Eden is a sweetheart.
I love that even though you were only gone for a little while that day the kids were all there to meet you like you had been gone for days so sweet to see how much they love you and missed you
Tom you remind me of my hubby. You seem like a awesome husband and father. Very patient and gentle with your family. Andrea, I amazed at your dedication to your family. You inspire me to be a better mom. Blessings from Ky.
I love you all!!! Precious family ❤️
I love seeing your children grow! I've been a long time subscriber and admire you and your family so much!
My hubby and I went to the showing of Close Encounters of the Third Kind tonight for the 40th anniversary. It's my hubby's favorite movie. Thought of your blogs when the characters were driving and it said "Moorcroft, Wyoming" on the screen.
Eden's hair looks really pretty.
Your video makes my day, just love you and your family. Lv Dee
Sophia just breaks my heart when she cries. I just want to pick her up and love her.
The way all your children came out to see and speak to you is so heart warming
Eden is so sweet and well behaved. Its so refreshing to watch a young girl act this way in todays sometimes entitled world...i love your family andrea...love fr canada !!!
your vlogs are very relaxing to watch :) ....especially the shopping trip ones!...your voice is very calming..that sounds odd I know lol
Kattie Anderson I feel the same way, I’ve been watching these videos so much lately. She is very inspirational. I have two kids and it feels overwhelming sometimes. I actually fell asleep last night listening to her... her voice is very calming and sweet
These videos inspire me to live simply and i ty for that!
How much Eden must miss her mother! I hope she has a woman in her life to offer female friendship. Sweet girl!
No one can organize a grocery cart like you can Andrea !
I absolutely adore your channel. I LOVE how your family is so organized and sweet. ♥♥♥
Loved seeing Eden on the shopping trip with you. What a great helper!
What a nice mommy and daughter day out. Love the bread stick donuts so cool you should do this again
I just did my monthly shopping today! There are only two of us, and I spent about $240. We'll only need to supplement with fresh fruit, veggies, and milk throughout the month, though. Plus, a lot of the stuff I bought will last longer than a month. Anyway, I always love watching your videos!
Eden is beautiful young lady. I love dollar tree! my daughters and I are addictedLol!
I'm still wondering how anyone could spend $180 at the dollar store haha. I think I've spent around $60 for memorial day flowers. I make my own baskets, but never near 180. She must have been out of everything :). Eden is a good helper. I so enjoy your big walmart hauls. Now I'm hungry for donuts and pizza.
Eden is such a sweet young lady. Her smile is contagious.
I love watching your monthly shopping trips! The most I've ever spent at Dollar Tree was around $36.
How does he get away with making only 1 large pizza? You have growing boys. They must not eat much pizza. I make homemade pizza too. I only Make on birthdays because I'm an empty nester. That's my gift son or daughter. Grandma to 2, so to be 3 in May.
its a 16" pizza and its over an inch thick, so its deceptively filling, and a couple kids just eat the bread sticks :D
Last month when you did your big shopping trip, I was thinking maybe it would be a treat to take one of the bigger children with you! Plus, they would be a big help! Now seeing you and Eden together this month, I realize it's the great time shared that really shines through and is the most important part of bringing a "guest shopper" along!! May God continue to bless each of you!!!
claudia has suddenly changed from a baby into a little girl. so sweet and adventurous just like my penny :) it is so adorable and eden is so sweet and helpful :) i love how your kids love to help and get involved. the world could learn a lot from your family x
Love the shopping videos. Eden is so well behaved and quiet. Is she ever a chatterbox like some kids?
When it's just her and I, she talks non-stop in the car. Otherwise, she's not much of a chatterbox.
That's nice to hear that she likes to talk with you. She seems like a sweet girl. I like her smile, it looks so shy and calm. I like the boys too though. They, especially Asher and Judah, are so boy-sterous.
Eden has grown into lovely young lady Andrea would off been so proud of her and her brothers and sisters xxx
Eden is very sweet, pretty and a wonderful daughter. God bless her.
Why can’t you just put the diapers on the bottom
I love getting back to school deals! I get more excited about back to school shopping than my daughter does! If I find deals like that I shop ahead and store them for the following year! I love watching all the old videos of Andrea again!
I love your videos and your sweet family so much, Andrea! When you put the biscuits IN the cart and not on the side I thought to myself- this really isn't a big trip! Hahaha!
I am most flipped out when you got justice shaving cream but then you said it was for slime so I calmed back down. Lol
Yeah, I could see that would seem a little odd without an explanation!
Why don't your kids like cola
Eden is growing up to be a sweet and helpful young lady! Very thoughtful.
Aww! That was wonderful to see Eden with you. I am on my 5th boy...no girls. :)
There's hope; my friend Becky has 6 boys and she found out that baby #7 is a girl!
I remember watching this when it was first released. I realize today how I took it all for granted. Rip Andrea.
When you grabbed the peanut clusters I got really excited because those have become one of my favorite snack type items.
It was so sweet to see Eden get some alone Mommy time!! She is so sweet! Tom's breadstick donuts looked good. Lol!!
Gosh American items are sooo cheap! Australian prices are triple!
Nicky Burnett I reckon! It's ridiculous!
I had a friend visiting from Australia who seriously wanted to go shopping for clothes while she was here since prices were so cheap compared to Australia. Made me realize how low our income is compared to Australia as well!
What a sweet little helper you had with you that day. Growing up to be quite a lovely young lady.
Sweet little Copilot🤗🤗
Eden is such a gift!!! Such a soft spoken, sweet little girl!
Eden is sweet heart ♥️! She looks just like her mom!
I outfitted my grad school kitchen almost exclusively from Dollar Tree. Mason Jars, drinking glasses, utensils, can openers and pizza wheels and things like that, cutting boards, etc. My total was $68. I'm impressed by the $180 total.
you were gone for awhile and when you got back everybody had stories
“monthly shopping trip to Walmart”
Loved this
GOSH SHES PRETTY HOW OLD IS SHE?
Eden is 7.
i like the way you place everything in your trolley ( in Australia we call carts Trolleys ) all nice and neat, unlike me who just throws it all in :P
BoganBindz same haha
I love these videos
These videos are going to be therapy for Andreas kids. They had the best mum . So kind and gentle. Hannah will always be reminded I hope by her much older siblings how beautiful and sweet and brilliant her mum was. 😁😁😍
I love ur kids u and ur husband and this show
I'm always very impressed with the way your kids look after their own finances, especially with having to add tax at the till! I guess it's easy when you're used to it, but in the uk it's all included in the price so I worry I'd always be trying to buy things I didn't have enough money for.
It's even more difficult for foreigners because literally every town can have a different tax amount. In our town, the tax is 6%, but in the town where Walmart is it's 5%. There's no tax on food here, but there is on soda and candy. Tax on hotels is entirely different than every other place in town, too!
Same in Australia, it's all in the total. I'd get so confused in America.
As I was folding laundry 🧺 doing some mommy chores this popped up in my feed. Of course I’m gonna let it play! This is one of the sweetest mommy daughter day out videos with sweet Andrea and precious Eden 💕 I have daughters Edens age and these memories are a treasure 🙏🏼 Just Beautiful 💙
The pencils with led were not $ 2.50 it was $ 4.97 you didn't look right
I love Eden's hair in this video. The shorter length looks better on her. Andrea was such a good mother!
I just spent $130 at dollar tree lol most i ever spent and will ever spend
Eden was such a sweet little helper :0) iam sure you both had fUn ! Xxxx kiM
I always run out of paper towels no matter what I do! Great video! I love your shop with me's!😁
I am so pleased to see how much your channel has grown. You have really done well for yourself. Congratulations on all your hard work paying off . You totally deserve it ❣
At 21:51 "An ideal balance of softness and strength": perfect! (And was that a subtle hint just afterwards??)
What a sweet kid Eden is. I'm sure she was delighted to go on a 'big girl' shopping trip with mum.
Notification squad!
Payten Ator Can I be in this one? I just don't know what to do 😊🕊🌈❤️
Kathleen Lirette click /tap the little bell icon next to the subscribe button
Joshua Creel Thank You 😊. 😊🕊🌈❤️
I had to stop going shopping as often too. You definitely spend more when you shop more often.
Great video Andrea as always, love to all the mills family from the UK :)
Yay lots of Eden time! You're a good helper Eden. 😊👍
Good to see eden getting some one on one time w you. She's such a sweetie and such a good helper
Tom, I'm going to need to know more about those doughnuts.
