I grabbed 12 cans of pumpkin for $1.49 (reg. $2.49) each. Sugar is $1.99 for 4 lbs.. Sweet potatoes are 59 cents a lb, so I plan on getting 5 lbs or so of those. Turkey is 79 cents a lb with additional $25 purchase. I'm stocking up on holiday prices. Those of us who are living the frugal lifestyle, knows this is the way to go. Have a blessed day, and thank you for this RUclips channel
You can buy a package of pumpkin seeds for .69 cents and plant them in the backyard. You will have enough pumpkins for the entire neighbourhoods. Even dogs like pumpkin. You can freeze lots and lots. Very easy plant to grow.
I started making bagels a few months ago and am loving it! The only thing that I do differently is to put the dough ingredients into my bread machine and set it on Dough cycle. A little less work but still delicious results. I alternate bagel making with overnight bread baking, every other week for each. There's enormous satisfaction in producing beautiful baked goods while saving money.
Here in the UK we don’t get Everything but the Bagel seasoning. I found a recipe online and bought all the ingredients and now make my own for a fraction of the cost. The bags of seeds etc are quite big so whenever I run out I just mix up another batch of the seasoning using what I’ve already bought. I love it on poached eggs and avocado on toast for breakfast.
Hi Emmy and Paul! Another great video. I just wanted to mention how much I love the table cloth that was on your table while you were making the bagels. It brings back such wonderful memories of my mom and grandma. Thank you for that!! 💕
I bought the dried fruit and nuts and non-melting powdered sugar for our Christmas stollens a few months ago. We’ve had that every Christmas morning, with a few pots of tea, for 40 years, and my adult son has never had a Christmas without it. I always buy the ingredients ahead of time, because it’s the most important breakfast of our year as a family. Tradition!😁❤️ I also buy good quality dry tortellini ahead of time, and then make homemade turkey stock with our Thanksgiving turkey and freeze it until Christmas Eve, because our other 40 year old tradition is to have a big pot of tortellini in brodo for supper on Christmas Eve. Oh, and right after Christmas, I start buying the ingredients and putting them away for making my son’s birthday meal. His birthday is May 2. 😆 People laugh at me, but I’ve done this for decades, because we can eat beans and rice or toast and tea for meals every night if we really have to, but there are a handful of meals that really matter to me to get right, and I bend over backwards to be sure I can produce those meals even if we’re hit by hard times. There were a few years where I was really glad I had stuck those ingredients away, I can tell you.
@@FrugalMoneySaver My husband’s mom always made them when he was a kid. We married young (I was 21 and he was 20), and were immediately stationed away from family, being off to Italy with the AF. So I was determined to cook things his mom did, so he wouldn’t be homesick. I couldn’t cook to save my life, but i tried.😆 And after decades, I bake a pretty mean stollen now! Heh.
I have been saving .55 cent coupons that are on the inside of the box of my favorite brand of butter. This brand has inched up to $6.29 a pound. Thankfully I have been using the stock we had in my freezer. Today they were on Buy One Get One Free special. With the special price and minus the coupons I bought this butter for $2.60 a pound. This should take me well into the winter months. Yea😊
I have done that in the past, I had about 20 coupons and they had really long expiration dates. Butter is outrageous right now. 2.60 a pound is a very good price.
I'm not a stranger to baking yeast breads and I love getting my hands in the dough. That said, I have never tried making bagels....until this morning. Oooh, they turned out beautifully. I might make some for Christmas gifts with homemade jam. Thanks for the recipe and the demonstration.
You two are just the most delightful couple. I love the joy and love you both exude. I am definitely going to try those bagels. I've two (adult) children (boys 22 and 20) who live with me and they go through at least a pack of bagels (sometimes two) a week. You make it look so easy. Maybe I'll snap a picture and send it to you.
Jennifer, I'm sure your boys will love your homemade bagels and they may go through even more of them! I agree with you about Emmy and Paul. I feel like I'm having a conversation with longtime friends when I tune into one of their videos. They're always so welcoming and have wonderful recipes and suggestions to help everyone be more frugal.
Those bagels look absolutely delicious and they so easy and economical to make at home. I just bought two 10-lb pound bags of Green Giant brand Russet potatoes for $0.99 cents each at Yokes, a WA/ID regional store. Many prices are up, but there are still bargains.
My Frugal purchases was .49 cent per pound turkeys. I got 4 and cooked two, pulled them off the bones and froze them. Then took the bones and made broth in the crock pot. Sweet potatoes .54 a pound, I got 5 lb. Through Ibotta I got a free turkey breast, a thing of sweet potatoes, pkg of gravy, and a can of cranberry sauce. The other 2 turkeys were broken down, I gifted the leg quarters to someone with a smoker. I did bake the breasts from the other two turkeys for Thanksgiving. I will be trying the bagels as they look beautifully delicious. They would be wonderful with my homemade apple butter.
Thanks for sharing the bagel recipe and encouraging us to actually see how many blessings we have. Just the mere fact that we've made it so far and can celebrate the upcoming Holidays is such a joy... and we must not forget to also share that with whomever touches our lives (in real life or virtually), thank YOU Emmy and Paul for your generosity! I am going to pick up a free turkey from ShopRite that we got through their promotion. That is our main dish every year for Thanksgiving and my Mother in law prepares it so deliciously 😋 I try to stock up every week on lost leaders (prior confirmation that the price is truly the lowest of the season). Happy Thanksgiving for everyone in the US. 🤗
I have always wanted to learn how to make bagels, but thought it was too hard to do. You've proved to me that they aren't that difficult, and that I shouldn't be intimidated by the process! Thank you! You are a joy to watch!
Not a food item but we were in home depot today. They had the most beautiful red poinsettia plants for sale for 1.98 each. I bought 2 plants to use as decorations in my home. What a great price.
How delightful this channel is! One definitely has to be willing to put forth more time and effort to save money. Certainly, it’s a more holistic way of living. I appreciate the encouragement to do so 🍂
Hey Emmy and Paul. Been watching y'all for several months now and can't seem to get enough. You are so inspirational. I jumped on the express beginning of summer so as my garden came in I was already thinking about Thanksgiving. I love to can and freeze but after watching y'all I started watching for the sale items. I have been slowly marking off my grocery list. Found sweet potatoes on sale two months ago canned them for the holidays. I only have a few items left to buy. I am 62 and I host and do the cooking for my bunch. Thanks to you two this year is smooth sailing. I can really enjoy the holidays and I have saved a ton of money! God bless you and may your holidays be as joyful.
Apparently bagels are much more expensive here in East Tennessee than they are where you live. A local bakery, where the bagels are extraordinarily delicious, sells them for $1.89 a piece or $8.79 for a half dozen. Great video, as usual. Have fun and enjoy the upcoming holiday season!
We have Price Rite markets in WNY I see the Shop Rite trucks unloading and they have Bowl and Basket brand. I was shopping pre-storm and I saw your fav Colavita pasta was $1!!! I was thinking of Emmy!!! Haa I'm enjoying a snow day today and I enjoyed your video. Have a great Wknd! Joni from Bflo
We love movie night at home especially with the holidays! I haven't yet really stocked up for the holidays. Because we don't know if, or how many guest we have.the families have not decided yet. I have minced beef In the freezer, I have frozen veggies, tinned tomatoes, pasta and flour so I could make a nice pie or pasta dish, good quality of chocolate, custardpowder to make pudding or to bake cookies with tea or coffee . Company is more important than food to us. So tasty a meal is a celebration in our opinion 😉🍴🍲🎄and put on some music(RUclips) to contribute to the festive feeling 🎅🎶
I bought .99 cent cranberries today. Got some for freezer as well as fresh. Sweet potatoes were .49 cents per pound. Potatoes are .99 cents for 5 pounds at QuikTrip. Have to get them yet. Lorraine
Love this! I have never been afraid of yeast breads. I used to make homemade breads when my three sons were young. Now I live alone so don't do it as often. I never made bagels. I already have all the ingredients! (I even have bread flour. Lol). I will be baking bagels soon. I wonder if they can be frozen afterwards to make them last longer... Because it's only for me. Love you guys. I turn your videos on and feel like I am watching family. I watched your house video as well. We definitely have the same eclectic tastes with the antiques. 💕💕
Good morning and hello from Nova Scotia, Canada 🇨🇦. What a wonderful recipe! I did not realize that bagels were so easy to make. Thank you very much for sharing 😀. Have a terrific day 😀.
I haven't made bagels since my daughter was really little. I need to get back to this! I also used to make english muffins. My gas budget has been really good as I work from home and we homeschool and only go out to church and the grocery store on the weekends. Every little penny helps! I have stocked up on russet potatoes. 10lb bag for 1.99. I have also stocked up on canned pumpkin and choc chip and baking mixes but cannot recall their prices. I had a gift card squirreled away for the grocery store so I paid nothing officially out of pocket.
We found some clearance chocolate chips of various types for our holiday baking needs, canned pumpkin, butter and the veggies like celery and onions. They go in everything right now
We have already had Thanksgiving here in Ontario but I have been stocking up for Christmas. Flavoured whipped cream cheeses for 1.50 Snowflake shaped Ritz crackers 2.00 . Cans of mixed nuts 2.99 . Large container of holiday mixed sprinkles 3.79 . So excited to be making 2 wreath cakes for our church Christmas banquet this Sunday! Thank you for the bagel recipe Emmy! I think I'm going to try it tomorrow. Snow storm heading our way this weekend. Great time for baking. We love bagels and I've never made them. Have a wonderful weekend!
I love the idea of making our own bagels! I haven't had them in quite a while because they are too expensive so I am looking forward to trying this recipe. Yours turned out beautiful!
Bagels look delish!! May try once I go thru breads in freezer!! I found sweet potatoes 29 cents per pound, no limit. Butter 1 lb 2/$4 limit 6. Purchase sausage patties, got 4 large croissants free!! Digital coupon $5 off butterball turkey $1.29/lb
Picked pumpkins from my neighbor’s pumpkin patch (with her permission of course!) Roasted pumpkins and made homemade pie crust for a homemade pumpkin pie. Remainder of pumpkin froze for future use. Bought 48 cans of cream of mushroom soup for 99 cents a can to stock pantry for the new year.
We are not big fans of Turkey so I am making a Mississippi Pot Roast. I bought the chuck roast when it was on sale for 3.99 lb. I bought a few roasts and put them in the freezer. I have everything else we need for dinner.
Thank you for the bagel recipe. I'm going to try to make date bagels, fresh blueberry bagels, strawberry bagels,apple bagels. I'm going to experiment to make unique bagels. I enjoy you videos.
Meijer has Turkey for 55 cents a lb, sweet potatoes 59 cents, celery 1.29, and russet potatoes for. 99- 5 pounds bag. Turkey is a limit of 2, but no limit on the others.
Bought all food ahead for Thanksgiving, plus got a few bags of cranberries to use now and freeze for later. Walmart price this day $.98, so made cranberry muffins plus 5 bags in freezer
Pass the bagels...and the coffee! Yum! I like to top them with cream cheese, Zat'ar seasoning, and dried sumac (powdered). I was raised to think ahead about holiday meals. My Dad passed on in 2015, but we used to love to grocery shop together and we'd often go to a nearby discount store called "More for Less". About the time my kids went back to school in the fall, Dad would call me up and say, "Isn't it about time we started getting some holiday baking supplies together?!" ABSOLUTELY! We'd gather powdered and brown sugars, peanut butter in bulk, red decorator sugar, coconut, nuts, candy chocolate coating, etc. We'd also stock up on evaporated milk, butter, yams, flour, sugar, and anything else we could think of for our holiday meals. Dad was always a good provider and he was a true 'prepper' before it was a thing. lol This year we raised turkeys for our freezer and we harvested them about 3 weeks ago. I stay stocked ahead on things like sugar and flour, but I've stocked up on cranberry sauce (many in my crew like the canned stuff better than homemade--me included, lol), butter ($$$$$--I can't find it on sale anywhere near me), coconut, cream of chicken soup (I know...but it's SO much easier...), etc. and we grew sweet potatoes, onions, green beans, corn, squash, etc.--so it really hasn't been too much of a burden to shop for extra groceries. I'll note here that my most recent shop at our semi-local store showed me very scanty shelves in many departments....probably the leanest I've seen so far in our area. I'm already thinking about Christmas dinner extras--I need to stock up on more butter, but it's about $3.50/lb here. Yikes! Happy Thanksgiving!
I make regular and a sweet version of party mix to give to my Bible study and my kids request it every year. I was able to pick up the Chex cereal for that mix at $2.50 a box. For cereal these days, that is a great buy. I picked up 4 boxes.
I had the pleasure last October eating bagels from Rhinebeck Bagels. Omg, I’d forgotten how good a real NY bagel can be. But I was shocked at the cost. I don’t need to eat a lot of bread, but I sure love it. I’m going to make your naan bread, however 😊
Those bagels look amazing. I teach at a local school and we have all next week off for Thanksgiving, so I'll be experimenting with making those bagels for my kids. We are all ready for a bit of a break and homemade bagels sound like a fun activity for us!
Hi! Our Harris Teeter had turkeys for .29/# (W/$40.00 purchase) and sweet potatoes for .25/# They run the same deal on sweet potatoes every year at this time, so we buy 20-30# and store them in the basement. They will keep for 6 months easy. Thanks for a heartwarming video. We think so much alike, I too make bagels and it’s really a lot of fun to do and they’re delicious! God Bless!
Your NY bagels are a must try!!! $2.19 for a bagel here, plus 8.5% tax, as they are considered prepared food, even though its just being tossed in the bag...$2.38
I'm doing mine with a small amount of butter, steam them a bit and then bake. It's half a bagel, half Asian bao and 100 percent french taste for the butter it's not exactly a bagel 🥯 not exactly a brioche but it's tasty. Thanks for the sharing.
I’m definitely gonna try the bagels! I live north of you on the st.Lawrence river, it’s beautiful here, but not much choice in stores or competitors. So price’s are unbelievably high . Thank you for you time and tips 😘
Hubby talked to a farmer that had grown pumpkins, farmer said take all you want, so he brought home 10 medium to large pumpkins, So far I have canned 4 pumpkins (12 quarts) and steamed then pureed 2 pumpkins which gave me 6 - 2 cup bags that I froze. Not sure what I am going to do with the last four. But they were free and I plan to share with family.
In my area, Suffolk county, New York all these had cranberries at $.99 a bag picked up some extra to make cranberry sauce. Love you guys happy Thanksgiving.
Thanks for the encouragement to make your own bagels! I’ve tried once or twice but haven’t made it a regular thing. We live in Texas but I miss my NY bagels!
Today we hit the jackpot at Krogers. We got 3 3# hamburger packages on clearance for $4.00 each. We also got 5 1.5# packages of bacon for $4.00. $1.00 boxes of turkey stuffing. $.79 /# turkey $11.11 total for the bird. We were thrilled with all the markdowns today.
Thanks for your video. You made "making bagels" look so easy. I need to try it. Bagels are getting more expensive. Even ShopRite bagel prices are going up. Looking forward to having a hot bagel right out from the oven.
Hi Emmy and Paul, I have been able to get cranberries for .99 a bag, 10 lbs of potatoes for 3.99, frozen veggies for .99 a bag and pumpkin for 1.99. You can do a nice Thanksgiving meal for a good price if you shop carefully.
Love, love love this video, and can't wait to make the bagels. We like to have bagels every once in a while on a Sunday morning. Well, I got two bagels last week, one for my husband and one for me and was shocked after I paid. The bagels were $1.85 EACH! And, we don't get anything on ours. Yikes! I've been stocking up on things like canned pumpkin, and baking items for Christmas cookies. The days are flying by, whew!
Oh those bagels are a must try !! Thank You. I actually purchased my turkey last year at .69 a lb for this year ! I purchased 1 this year at .98 lb for next year . I grew my own sweet potatoes & have enough to carry us through Easter lol.
Wegmans stopped making garlic bagels and raised the price so I’m definitely going to make these! I’ve been stocking up on Christmas food since July. I have nearly everything I need. Thank you for this video!
I hope to be frugal as a stay at home mom of 4 young ones in the new year! Thank you. Just found this channel from my sister and can’t wait to try these bagels!
Love the recipe bagels cream cheese and lots or crabmeat yum our bread place is huge if you spend ten you get five free items for Thanksgiving I'm eating a turkey TV dinner cranberries and stuffing free best price happy Thanksgiving to all
Hope you are not getting plummeted by the snowstorm hitting the Northeast this weekend! Oh my goodness...those bagels look sooooo good! Everything bagels are my favorite. I have a simple recipe for bagels that is just flour and plain Greek yogurt. Not as good as a NY bagel but a good, quick option. I am not hosting anything this year. I am joining a couple girlfriends for Thanksgiving dinner out and we will also go out for Christmas dinner too. But I have bought some items that are considered traditional holiday meal items like canned pumpkin because I like to give it to the dogs as they really like it and I also use it to mix in with instant vanilla pudding and some pumpkin pie spice for an old weight watchers dessert recipe. As always I've been grabbing frozen vegetables and anything else that I can find that I know I will use if it is on sale. With the cold weather that has come to the midwest, I want to make sure that I have some extra Staples in not only the freezer but also my pantry in case we get some unexpected snow and the trucks don't get to the grocery stores or the deliveries are delayed/suspended. That doesn't happen too often but it sounds like you up in the Northeast are really going to get hit this weekend. I pray everyone stay safe and stays inside like recommended. Some of the biggest problems come when people don't use common sense and stay off the roads. I know you and Paul have a good stock pile of items in your pantry and freezers so you will be fine I'm sure. And I'm sure Dixie Belle has plenty of kibble available for her too! I just bought a 30 lb bag of the Nutro Healthy Weight that my dogs eat a couple weeks ago so we should be good. I was also able to get a bag of their glucosamine / chondroitin treats that they get every other day on sale at Sam's club. I try to keep a bag of head so that I never run out. After some of the shortages in 2020/2021, I tend to keep a little extra stock more than I used to of some items that I really don't want to run out of. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. I don't know if you will be taking next week off for the holiday or if you will be having a video on Tuesday or not. Whatever you do, I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Blessings to you my friends!
No storm here Rosemary. That huge storm is about 6 hours away in Western NY. Those in that area are in our prayers for sure! We will definitely have a video Tuesday but we will take Friday off to be with family and friends! A blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours as well!
@@FrugalMoneySaver I thought you were so much further south of the storm so I'm glad for that but I cannot believe the forecast that I'm seeing for the Buffalo area; four to six feet of snow?!?! I know they are used to getting a lot of snow in the winter but those poor people will be digging out next spring. It has been very cold here all week in Nebraska. It's only up to 30 and down into the teens and single digits in some areas overnight. Very grateful that all three of the dogs like to sleep on the bed with me as they definitely help keepe warm! Time to add another blanket on the bed as well. Anyway, I'm so grateful you and Paul will not be hit with this snowstorm but I am sure at some point you will get quite a lot of snow as well we here in Nebraska. I know the upper Midwest has aready been hit with snow. We had a few flurries the other day but nothing that could accumulate. Happy Thanksgiving to all of your followers here in the US. Hope everyone has a blessed and safe holiday!🦃🍁🥧
Bagels look great! I'm definitely going to make them. Gas in San Diego is SLOWLY coming down. Who knows for how long though...we're trying to reduce trips too.
On my frig is a list "mom's Christmas wish list" . The items I want to buy for Christmas candy, breads and cookies. As I see a sale I can pick up butter, chocolate, nuts, ect. Just had to be sure to tell my daughter that is for me to buy, not what I want for Christmas.
I live in the Northern California area, and our gas is 4.99 and up. Those bagels look good. I stocked up on all the loss leaders for thanksgiving. I bought sweet potatoes, celery, a ham and a turkey so far.
Didn't know bagels were so easy to make. They look great. Gas for under 4.00 gallon sounds good to me. Here in Fresno California, it's about 5.00 a gallon, right now. Some places as low as 4.79 gal but some places it's over 5.00. I'm surprised your price is so much less considering it's New York. Don't know if it's all stores but the Aldi's here have rolled back prices to pre pandemic prices. So we got 10lbs of potatoes for 1.49, canned veggies for .49, 2lbs of carrots for .79 and more. At Vons we found canned spinach for only 1.00 per can, OMG, my daughter and I nearly flipped. We love canned del Monte spinach and have never found it cheaper than a 1.50 each, so to find it for only 1.00 was a big treat. And we love hot cocoa. I love to add peppermint to it. Did you know they have peppermint whipped cream? So good and really delicious on top of hot chocolate. Thanks Emmy and Paul, great video. I hope you guys have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I can hardly wait. It's the one time a year I make my candied yams from scratch. Funny, I grew up on the canned yams with marshmallows in top... But once I tasted fresh, I never went back to canned. My favorite foods at the Thanksgiving dinner are: Stuffing Candied yams And my homemade cranberry sauce. So good. What are your favorites?
I go to Foodbanks & leaves less desire to go spend money at grocery stores. My pantry looks like a well feed blood tick about to pop. Got German Chocolate cake Monday at FB had not eaten any in years, I love it.
I have my claw crab meat for Christmas Eve Polish Wigilia Dinner. $8.99 a can. Also bought champagne during the year for $6.00 a bottle. We like it dry (Brut) Lots of times sold out before the holidays. Haven't checked the price lately but I am sure it probably went up. Been getting the loss leaders every week from ShopRite and Acme. Heard ketchup & tomato products will be in short supply around April. So I am going to stock up now especially if I see a sale. Distilled water shortage. Get some now if you need for medical machines etc. Only use distilled water in your steam iron.
I’ve been making my own bread rolls. They are 50p each to buy in the shop, I can make them for 4p. I must try your bagel recipe. Petrol (gas) is $7.44 a gallon here in the UK btw …
Cream cheese,Chocolate Chips, butter, Ritz crackers, soda. All have been at amazing loss leader prices. I also have bought flour and sugar at low prices for baking. I usually start stocking up in September. It helps out so much with the holiday festivities!
I was able to find turkey at our local Giant Eagle store for $.47 a pound! I got a 15 pound turkey for just over seven dollars. I also got walnuts at 2 pounds for $5 at Marc’s a local northeastern Ohio chain and fresh Ocean Spray cranberries at 2 bags for $3. I am well on my way to Thanksgiving dinner! Hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday too!
Emmy I made them this afternoon I wish I could post a photo here to show you, thank you so much for a delicious recipe. I'm making another lot this evening to freeze.
I have all my food for thanksgiving and Christmas including my special crack candy🌻 I’m going to try and get another Turkey and ham if their super cheap for New Years or later in the year.
Loved this video! I always forget about making bagels but will be making them this week. I saw that two stores in our area have sweet potatoes on sale 8 lbs for $1.00. 😮 I've never seen them that low and will be stocking up.
Hubby makes peanut brittle for family and friends. Various flavors. We have been buying all year long. The raw spanish peanuts I ordered in bulk the first of October. About 35 batches. We try to get it all mailed out by December.
Loved the bagels. I purchased butternut squash for 49 cents a pound and I am going to make a savory soup. Also bought sweet potatoes for 49 cent a pound will be baking some and roasting the rest.
Your bagels looked so delicious. Great job! We have been staying home more too. We noticed last month we were going somewhere so often we ended up overspending in the gas amount. So now we are making do with the food we have, making sure to combine trips when we do go out and finding things to do at home so we stay at home. When we went to our local Kroger store they had miniature candy bars on a clearance sale that were in a square shape. I suggested we get them and put them on a plate at Christmas for the guests we have on Christmas Day. We paid $2.28 for a 14 oz. bag. One less thing I have to make. A local grocery store had confectioner's sugar and brown sugar on sale for $1.28 for a 2# bag, so I stocked up. They also had flour on sale for $1.49 for 5# bag, normally $2.29.

I grabbed 12 cans of pumpkin for $1.49 (reg. $2.49) each. Sugar is $1.99 for 4 lbs.. Sweet potatoes are 59 cents a lb, so I plan on getting 5 lbs or so of those. Turkey is 79 cents a lb with additional $25 purchase. I'm stocking up on holiday prices. Those of us who are living the frugal lifestyle, knows this is the way to go. Have a blessed day, and thank you for this RUclips channel
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing Deborah!
You can buy a package of pumpkin seeds for .69 cents and plant them in the backyard. You will have enough pumpkins for the entire neighbourhoods. Even dogs like pumpkin. You can freeze lots and lots. Very easy plant to grow.
I started making bagels a few months ago and am loving it! The only thing that I do differently is to put the dough ingredients into my bread machine and set it on Dough cycle. A little less work but still delicious results. I alternate bagel making with overnight bread baking, every other week for each. There's enormous satisfaction in producing beautiful baked goods while saving money.
Yes! I agree! Thanks for watching!
Here in the UK we don’t get Everything but the Bagel seasoning. I found a recipe online and bought all the ingredients and now make my own for a fraction of the cost. The bags of seeds etc are quite big so whenever I run out I just mix up another batch of the seasoning using what I’ve already bought. I love it on poached eggs and avocado on toast for breakfast.
What a great idea! Avocado toast is the BEST!
Hi Emmy and Paul! Another great video. I just wanted to mention how much I love the table cloth that was on your table while you were making the bagels. It brings back such wonderful memories of my mom and grandma. Thank you for that!! 💕
Thanks so much Colleen! 😊
I bought the dried fruit and nuts and non-melting powdered sugar for our Christmas stollens a few months ago. We’ve had that every Christmas morning, with a few pots of tea, for 40 years, and my adult son has never had a Christmas without it. I always buy the ingredients ahead of time, because it’s the most important breakfast of our year as a family. Tradition!😁❤️
I also buy good quality dry tortellini ahead of time, and then make homemade turkey stock with our Thanksgiving turkey and freeze it until Christmas Eve, because our other 40 year old tradition is to have a big pot of tortellini in brodo for supper on Christmas Eve.
Oh, and right after Christmas, I start buying the ingredients and putting them away for making my son’s birthday meal. His birthday is May 2. 😆 People laugh at me, but I’ve done this for decades, because we can eat beans and rice or toast and tea for meals every night if we really have to, but there are a handful of meals that really matter to me to get right, and I bend over backwards to be sure I can produce those meals even if we’re hit by hard times. There were a few years where I was really glad I had stuck those ingredients away, I can tell you.
I love Christmas Stollen!! I enjoy the one with the marzipan in the middle! So wonderful you make your own!
@@FrugalMoneySaver My husband’s mom always made them when he was a kid. We married young (I was 21 and he was 20), and were immediately stationed away from family, being off to Italy with the AF. So I was determined to cook things his mom did, so he wouldn’t be homesick. I couldn’t cook to save my life, but i tried.😆 And after decades, I bake a pretty mean stollen now! Heh.
I have been saving .55 cent coupons that are on the inside of the box of my favorite brand of butter. This brand has inched up to $6.29 a pound. Thankfully I have been using the stock we had in my freezer. Today they were on Buy One Get One Free special. With the special price and minus the coupons I bought this butter for $2.60 a pound. This should take me well into the winter months. Yea😊
I am headed to Publix tomorrow for the same deal,,, using my coupons as well lol
I want to try these bagels!!! It really looks easy!!! Ty for sharing!
I have done that in the past, I had about 20 coupons and they had really long expiration dates. Butter is outrageous right now. 2.60 a pound is a very good price.
I'm not a stranger to baking yeast breads and I love getting my hands in the dough. That said, I have never tried making bagels....until this morning. Oooh, they turned out beautifully. I might make some for Christmas gifts with homemade jam. Thanks for the recipe and the demonstration.
YAY! So happy they turned out well!!
You two are just the most delightful couple. I love the joy and love you both exude. I am definitely going to try those bagels. I've two (adult) children (boys 22 and 20) who live with me and they go through at least a pack of bagels (sometimes two) a week. You make it look so easy. Maybe I'll snap a picture and send it to you.
YES! Pleases send me a pic! Would love that!
Jennifer, I'm sure your boys will love your homemade bagels and they may go through even more of them! I agree with you about Emmy and Paul. I feel like I'm having a conversation with longtime friends when I tune into one of their videos. They're always so welcoming and have wonderful recipes and suggestions to help everyone be more frugal.
Those bagels look absolutely delicious and they so easy and economical to make at home. I just bought two 10-lb pound bags of Green Giant brand Russet potatoes for $0.99 cents each at Yokes, a WA/ID regional store. Many prices are up, but there are still bargains.
That is so amazing! What a great price!
My Frugal purchases was .49 cent per pound turkeys. I got 4 and cooked two, pulled them off the bones and froze them. Then took the bones and made broth in the crock pot. Sweet potatoes .54 a pound, I got 5 lb. Through Ibotta I got a free turkey breast, a thing of sweet potatoes, pkg of gravy, and a can of cranberry sauce.
The other 2 turkeys were broken down, I gifted the leg quarters to someone with a smoker. I did bake the breasts from the other two turkeys for Thanksgiving.
I will be trying the bagels as they look beautifully delicious. They would be wonderful with my homemade apple butter.
You got some really great deals Julie!
Thanks for sharing the bagel recipe and encouraging us to actually see how many blessings we have. Just the mere fact that we've made it so far and can celebrate the upcoming Holidays is such a joy... and we must not forget to also share that with whomever touches our lives (in real life or virtually), thank YOU Emmy and Paul for your generosity!
I am going to pick up a free turkey from ShopRite that we got through their promotion. That is our main dish every year for Thanksgiving and my Mother in law prepares it so deliciously 😋 I try to stock up every week on lost leaders (prior confirmation that the price is truly the lowest of the season).
Happy Thanksgiving for everyone in the US. 🤗
Thank you so very much! A very blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours!
I have always wanted to learn how to make bagels, but thought it was too hard to do. You've proved to me that they aren't that difficult, and that I shouldn't be intimidated by the process! Thank you! You are a joy to watch!
You can do it!
What a grand idea. I made bagels many years ago. I do make all of our bread/rolls…but I forgot I could make bagels! Thank you!
So happy the video was helpful Robin!
Not a food item but we were in home depot today. They had the most beautiful red poinsettia plants for sale for 1.98 each. I bought 2 plants to use as decorations in my home. What a great price.
Oh I love those plants! We can't keep them though because they are so poisonous to Dixie and Loris!
How delightful this channel is! One definitely has to be willing to put forth more time and effort to save money. Certainly, it’s a more holistic way of living. I appreciate the encouragement to do so 🍂
Thanks so very much!
Hey Emmy and Paul. Been watching y'all for several months now and can't seem to get enough. You are so inspirational. I jumped on the express beginning of summer so as my garden came in I was already thinking about Thanksgiving. I love to can and freeze but after watching y'all I started watching for the sale items. I have been slowly marking off my grocery list. Found sweet potatoes on sale two months ago canned them for the holidays. I only have a few items left to buy. I am 62 and I host and do the cooking for my bunch. Thanks to you two this year is smooth sailing. I can really enjoy the holidays and I have saved a ton of money! God bless you and may your holidays be as joyful.
Yay! We love to read comments like this. Thank you so much for sharing!
Apparently bagels are much more expensive here in East Tennessee than they are where you live. A local bakery, where the bagels are extraordinarily delicious, sells them for $1.89 a piece or $8.79 for a half dozen. Great video, as usual. Have fun and enjoy the upcoming holiday season!
YIKES! That is pricey!
We have Price Rite markets in WNY I see the Shop Rite trucks unloading and they have Bowl and Basket brand. I was shopping pre-storm and I saw your fav Colavita pasta was $1!!! I was thinking of Emmy!!! Haa I'm enjoying a snow day today and I enjoyed your video. Have a great Wknd! Joni from Bflo
I know your area is getting a lot of snow, please stay safe and warm!
You got your " Greased Bowled "" FUNNY !!!!!! Love It ! I'm making deviled eggs now,,,, I've got my "eggs deviled "
LOL! YES!
We love movie night at home especially with the holidays! I haven't yet really stocked up for the holidays. Because we don't know if, or how many guest we have.the families have not decided yet. I have minced beef In the freezer, I have frozen veggies, tinned tomatoes, pasta and flour so I could make a nice pie or pasta dish, good quality of chocolate, custardpowder to make pudding or to bake cookies with tea or coffee . Company is more important than food to us. So tasty a meal is a celebration in our opinion 😉🍴🍲🎄and put on some music(RUclips) to contribute to the festive feeling 🎅🎶
Sounds absolutely right! Lovely time!
I bought .99 cent cranberries today. Got some for freezer as well as fresh. Sweet potatoes were .49 cents per pound. Potatoes are .99 cents for 5 pounds at QuikTrip. Have to get them yet. Lorraine
Great prices Lorraine!
Love this! I have never been afraid of yeast breads. I used to make homemade breads when my three sons were young. Now I live alone so don't do it as often. I never made bagels. I already have all the ingredients! (I even have bread flour. Lol). I will be baking bagels soon. I wonder if they can be frozen afterwards to make them last longer... Because it's only for me. Love you guys. I turn your videos on and feel like I am watching family. I watched your house video as well. We definitely have the same eclectic tastes with the antiques. 💕💕
Thank you! 😃
I giggled out loud when you said, “whaaaaaaat?” When talking about the 15 cent bagels. That is impressive. I’m very tempted to try it.
They are really good!
Great idea.
Making everything from scratch saves money, plus you know what is in it.
Buying premade,It has so many chemicals and preservatives.
Yes! I agree Rochelle!
Good morning and hello from Nova Scotia, Canada 🇨🇦. What a wonderful recipe! I did not realize that bagels were so easy to make. Thank you very much for sharing 😀. Have a terrific day 😀.
So happy you enjoyed the video Michelle! Thank you!
I love that your focus is on joy:) So much gloom and doom in the frugality world right now but your Chanel makes me smile and gives me hope:)
YAY! That's our prayer Jackie!
I haven't made bagels since my daughter was really little. I need to get back to this! I also used to make english muffins. My gas budget has been really good as I work from home and we homeschool and only go out to church and the grocery store on the weekends. Every little penny helps!
I have stocked up on russet potatoes. 10lb bag for 1.99. I have also stocked up on canned pumpkin and choc chip and baking mixes but cannot recall their prices. I had a gift card squirreled away for the grocery store so I paid nothing officially out of pocket.
That's wonderful! Great prices on those items!
You two are too cute and I appreciate you teaching me how to make bagels! Your vintage kitchen utensils are darling! Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanks so much Susan! A blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours!
We found some clearance chocolate chips of various types for our holiday baking needs, canned pumpkin, butter and the veggies like celery and onions. They go in everything right now
Sounds great! So great to buy ahead!
We have already had Thanksgiving here in Ontario but I have been stocking up for Christmas. Flavoured whipped cream cheeses for 1.50 Snowflake shaped Ritz crackers 2.00 . Cans of mixed nuts 2.99 . Large container of holiday mixed sprinkles 3.79 . So excited to be making 2 wreath cakes for our church Christmas banquet this Sunday! Thank you for the bagel recipe Emmy! I think I'm going to try it tomorrow. Snow storm heading our way this weekend. Great time for baking. We love bagels and I've never made them. Have a wonderful weekend!
Sounds like you got some great deals! Thanks for sharing!
I love the idea of making our own bagels! I haven't had them in quite a while because they are too expensive so I am looking forward to trying this recipe. Yours turned out beautiful!
You can also double the dough recipe,and freeze half,for bread,rolls,pizza,etc.
Bagels look delish!! May try once I go thru breads in freezer!! I found sweet potatoes 29 cents per pound, no limit. Butter 1 lb 2/$4 limit 6. Purchase sausage patties, got 4 large croissants free!! Digital coupon $5 off butterball turkey $1.29/lb
Great deals Lesley!
Picked pumpkins from my neighbor’s pumpkin patch (with her permission of course!) Roasted pumpkins and made homemade pie crust for a homemade pumpkin pie. Remainder of pumpkin froze for future use. Bought 48 cans of cream of mushroom soup for 99 cents a can to stock pantry for the new year.
Oh how wonderful! Free pumpkins!
We are not big fans of Turkey so I am making a Mississippi Pot Roast. I bought the chuck roast when it was on sale for 3.99 lb. I bought a few roasts and put them in the freezer. I have everything else we need for dinner.
LOL! Paul doesn't like turkey either!
Thank you for the bagel recipe. I'm going to try to make date bagels, fresh blueberry bagels, strawberry bagels,apple bagels. I'm going to experiment to make unique bagels. I enjoy you videos.
What a great idea Christine!
Paul…the ultimate Ad Man! Those Paul approved bagels look delicious….thanks for sharing….
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
I love the stop and shop Savory Magazine
Aldi 99 cents for fresh cranberries and 2.50 lb for butter. Stop and Shop .50 a lb for Turkey
Yes, some great prices!
Meijer has Turkey for 55 cents a lb, sweet potatoes 59 cents, celery 1.29, and russet potatoes for. 99- 5 pounds bag. Turkey is a limit of 2, but no limit on the others.
Those are some great prices!
Celery 49cents a bunch and 5 lbs russet potatoes for .49 cents a bag.
SCORE!
I never knew that bagels were made like that. wow. 😁 You taught me something today.
YAY! So happy the video was helpful!
Really enjoy your show.
You look like good Christian folks.
Be blessed for Thanksgiving.
Thanks so much for being here Christelia!
Bought all food ahead for Thanksgiving, plus got a few bags of cranberries to use now and freeze for later. Walmart price this day $.98, so made cranberry muffins plus 5 bags in freezer
Great price! Thanks Paula!
Pass the bagels...and the coffee! Yum! I like to top them with cream cheese, Zat'ar seasoning, and dried sumac (powdered).
I was raised to think ahead about holiday meals. My Dad passed on in 2015, but we used to love to grocery shop together and we'd often go to a nearby discount store called "More for Less". About the time my kids went back to school in the fall, Dad would call me up and say, "Isn't it about time we started getting some holiday baking supplies together?!" ABSOLUTELY! We'd gather powdered and brown sugars, peanut butter in bulk, red decorator sugar, coconut, nuts, candy chocolate coating, etc. We'd also stock up on evaporated milk, butter, yams, flour, sugar, and anything else we could think of for our holiday meals. Dad was always a good provider and he was a true 'prepper' before it was a thing. lol
This year we raised turkeys for our freezer and we harvested them about 3 weeks ago. I stay stocked ahead on things like sugar and flour, but I've stocked up on cranberry sauce (many in my crew like the canned stuff better than homemade--me included, lol), butter ($$$$$--I can't find it on sale anywhere near me), coconut, cream of chicken soup (I know...but it's SO much easier...), etc. and we grew sweet potatoes, onions, green beans, corn, squash, etc.--so it really hasn't been too much of a burden to shop for extra groceries.
I'll note here that my most recent shop at our semi-local store showed me very scanty shelves in many departments....probably the leanest I've seen so far in our area. I'm already thinking about Christmas dinner extras--I need to stock up on more butter, but it's about $3.50/lb here. Yikes!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Love your descriptive comment! Your dad sounds like he was a wonderful father!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours as well!
I make regular and a sweet version of party mix to give to my Bible study and my kids request it every year. I was able to pick up the Chex cereal for that mix at $2.50 a box. For cereal these days, that is a great buy. I picked up 4 boxes.
Yes, that is a good buy!
I had the pleasure last October eating bagels from Rhinebeck Bagels. Omg, I’d forgotten how good a real NY bagel can be. But I was shocked at the cost. I don’t need to eat a lot of bread, but I sure love it. I’m going to make your naan bread, however 😊
It's so good!
Those bagels look amazing. I teach at a local school and we have all next week off for Thanksgiving, so I'll be experimenting with making those bagels for my kids. We are all ready for a bit of a break and homemade bagels sound like a fun activity for us!
Yes, they really are so good too! Enjoy your break!
October Budget! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I know right!!
Hi!
Our Harris Teeter had turkeys for .29/# (W/$40.00 purchase) and sweet potatoes for .25/#
They run the same deal on sweet potatoes every year at this time, so we buy 20-30# and store them in the basement. They will keep for 6 months easy. Thanks for a heartwarming video. We think so much alike, I too make bagels and it’s really a lot of fun to do and they’re delicious!
God Bless!
Wow! Paula those are some great prices! God bless you too! Thank you!
Hey Emmy, those bagels looked delicious 😋 I never realised how easy they were to make 😊
Hey Bex! Yes! So good too!
Your NY bagels are a must try!!! $2.19 for a bagel here, plus 8.5% tax, as they are considered prepared food, even though its just being tossed in the bag...$2.38
Aren't they yummy!
Hello lovely frugal friends ❤
Hello back Frugal Funster! Thanks for being here!
Our area has had 2 cans of pumpkin for $3 and turkeys for 78¢ a pound with an additional purchase of $25. Sweet potatoes are 49¢ a pound this week.
Wow.. i’m in Canada 🇨🇦 and a can of pure pumkin at my grocery store was $5.99 last week… 😭
We have sweet potatoes 5 pounds for $1.00
Must try these bagels
So good Anne!
I'm doing mine with a small amount of butter, steam them a bit and then bake. It's half a bagel, half Asian bao and 100 percent french taste for the butter it's not exactly a bagel 🥯 not exactly a brioche but it's tasty. Thanks for the sharing.
Oh my gosh that sounds great! Thanks Zohra!
Here in the Southwest we add fresh green chillies to the cream cheese. I have to try your bagel recipe...sounds wonderful!
Hope you enjoy!
I’m definitely gonna try the bagels! I live north of you on the st.Lawrence river, it’s beautiful here, but not much choice in stores or competitors. So price’s are unbelievably high . Thank you for you time and tips 😘
So happy our videos are helpful Kathy!
Hubby talked to a farmer that had grown pumpkins, farmer said take all you want, so he brought home 10 medium to large pumpkins, So far I have canned 4 pumpkins (12 quarts) and steamed then pureed 2 pumpkins which gave me 6 - 2 cup bags that I froze. Not sure what I am going to do with the last four. But they were free and I plan to share with family.
Oh how wonderful! That was so generous of the farmer!
In my area, Suffolk county, New York all these had cranberries at $.99 a bag picked up some extra to make cranberry sauce. Love you guys happy Thanksgiving.
Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
Thanks for the encouragement to make your own bagels! I’ve tried once or twice but haven’t made it a regular thing. We live in Texas but I miss my NY bagels!
Yes, they are amazing!
Today we hit the jackpot at Krogers.
We got 3 3# hamburger packages on clearance for $4.00 each.
We also got 5 1.5# packages of bacon for $4.00.
$1.00 boxes of turkey stuffing.
$.79 /# turkey $11.11 total for the bird.
We were thrilled with all the markdowns today.
YAY!! Rhonda how wonderful! Just in time for the holidays!
Butter was on sale a few weeks ago at Aldi for only $1.65/lb. I could only purchase 6 per visit. Our freezer is full but I was able to squeeze in 18 😮
YAY!! Such an amazing price!
Those are the prettiest bagels I've ever seen. I'm swooning. Diane
You are so kind Diane! Thank you!
I just twirl it on my finger through the hole and it makes a great opening.
Yes! thanks!
I think you appreciate your food much more when you make it yourself
We so agree! Thanks!
Thanks for your video. You made "making bagels" look so easy. I need to try it. Bagels are getting more expensive. Even ShopRite bagel prices are going up. Looking forward to having a hot bagel right out from the oven.
Hope you enjoy! They are so good!
Hi Emmy and Paul, I have been able to get cranberries for .99 a bag, 10 lbs of potatoes for 3.99, frozen veggies for .99 a bag and pumpkin for 1.99. You can do a nice Thanksgiving meal for a good price if you shop carefully.
I agree!! Sounds like you did great!
Our local Harps...free turkey after spending $100.
Got mine.
That's a great deal!
Those bagels look delicious. I was very excited to find a turkey for 49 cents a pound. Wishing you and your family a happy Thanksgiving.
Thank you! Blessed Thanksgiving to you as well!
Love, love love this video, and can't wait to make the bagels. We like to have bagels every once in a while on a Sunday morning. Well, I got two bagels last week, one for my husband and one for me and was shocked after I paid. The bagels were $1.85 EACH! And, we don't get anything on ours. Yikes! I've been stocking up on things like canned pumpkin, and baking items for Christmas cookies. The days are flying by, whew!
So happy you enjoyed the video! Thank you so much Ally!
I bought baking item 2 months ago for my salad and candy.
That's great Beth!
Oh those bagels are a must try !! Thank You. I actually purchased my turkey last year at .69 a lb for this year ! I purchased 1 this year at .98 lb for next year . I grew my own sweet potatoes & have enough to carry us through Easter lol.
That is awesome Kim!
I like the homemade bagel idea.
They are so good!
Wegmans stopped making garlic bagels and raised the price so I’m definitely going to make these! I’ve been stocking up on Christmas food since July. I have nearly everything I need. Thank you for this video!
Good for you! You are way ahead!
I hope to be frugal as a stay at home mom of 4 young ones in the new year! Thank you. Just found this channel from my sister and can’t wait to try these bagels!
Wonderful! Welcome Mrs. B! Happy to have you here!
You have the best taste tester right there Emmy!!
I sure do Dawn!
Love the recipe bagels cream cheese and lots or crabmeat yum our bread place is huge if you spend ten you get five free items for Thanksgiving I'm eating a turkey TV dinner cranberries and stuffing free best price happy Thanksgiving to all
Sounds wonderful Nanette!
Thought I missed your post 😮
No, lol! We're here! Thanks for watching!
correction below, it was $50 to spend to get the turkey for .69 a lb.
That's great!
Hope you are not getting plummeted by the snowstorm hitting the Northeast this weekend! Oh my goodness...those bagels look sooooo good! Everything bagels are my favorite. I have a simple recipe for bagels that is just flour and plain Greek yogurt. Not as good as a NY bagel but a good, quick option. I am not hosting anything this year. I am joining a couple girlfriends for Thanksgiving dinner out and we will also go out for Christmas dinner too. But I have bought some items that are considered traditional holiday meal items like canned pumpkin because I like to give it to the dogs as they really like it and I also use it to mix in with instant vanilla pudding and some pumpkin pie spice for an old weight watchers dessert recipe. As always I've been grabbing frozen vegetables and anything else that I can find that I know I will use if it is on sale. With the cold weather that has come to the midwest, I want to make sure that I have some extra Staples in not only the freezer but also my pantry in case we get some unexpected snow and the trucks don't get to the grocery stores or the deliveries are delayed/suspended. That doesn't happen too often but it sounds like you up in the Northeast are really going to get hit this weekend. I pray everyone stay safe and stays inside like recommended. Some of the biggest problems come when people don't use common sense and stay off the roads. I know you and Paul have a good stock pile of items in your pantry and freezers so you will be fine I'm sure. And I'm sure Dixie Belle has plenty of kibble available for her too! I just bought a 30 lb bag of the Nutro Healthy Weight that my dogs eat a couple weeks ago so we should be good. I was also able to get a bag of their glucosamine / chondroitin treats that they get every other day on sale at Sam's club. I try to keep a bag of head so that I never run out. After some of the shortages in 2020/2021, I tend to keep a little extra stock more than I used to of some items that I really don't want to run out of. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. I don't know if you will be taking next week off for the holiday or if you will be having a video on Tuesday or not. Whatever you do, I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Blessings to you my friends!
No storm here Rosemary. That huge storm is about 6 hours away in Western NY. Those in that area are in our prayers for sure! We will definitely have a video Tuesday but we will take Friday off to be with family and friends! A blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours as well!
@@FrugalMoneySaver I thought you were so much further south of the storm so I'm glad for that but I cannot believe the forecast that I'm seeing for the Buffalo area; four to six feet of snow?!?! I know they are used to getting a lot of snow in the winter but those poor people will be digging out next spring. It has been very cold here all week in Nebraska. It's only up to 30 and down into the teens and single digits in some areas overnight. Very grateful that all three of the dogs like to sleep on the bed with me as they definitely help keepe warm! Time to add another blanket on the bed as well. Anyway, I'm so grateful you and Paul will not be hit with this snowstorm but I am sure at some point you will get quite a lot of snow as well we here in Nebraska. I know the upper Midwest has aready been hit with snow. We had a few flurries the other day but nothing that could accumulate. Happy Thanksgiving to all of your followers here in the US. Hope everyone has a blessed and safe holiday!🦃🍁🥧
Tfs. Those bagels look soooo good!
Thanks so much!
Bagels look great! I'm definitely going to make them. Gas in San Diego is SLOWLY coming down. Who knows for how long though...we're trying to reduce trips too.
Yes, it helps to reduce the trips for sure!
On my frig is a list "mom's Christmas wish list" . The items I want to buy for Christmas candy, breads and cookies. As I see a sale I can pick up butter, chocolate, nuts, ect. Just had to be sure to tell my daughter that is for me to buy, not what I want for Christmas.
Dora what a great idea for the list!
I live in the Northern California area, and our gas is 4.99 and up. Those bagels look good. I stocked up on all the loss leaders for thanksgiving. I bought sweet potatoes, celery, a ham and a turkey so far.
That is awesome! YIKES on the gasoline!
Didn't know bagels were so easy to make. They look great.
Gas for under 4.00 gallon sounds good to me. Here in Fresno California, it's about 5.00 a gallon, right now. Some places as low as 4.79 gal but some places it's over 5.00. I'm surprised your price is so much less considering it's New York.
Don't know if it's all stores but the Aldi's here have rolled back prices to pre pandemic prices. So we got 10lbs of potatoes for 1.49, canned veggies for .49, 2lbs of carrots for .79 and more.
At Vons we found canned spinach for only 1.00 per can, OMG, my daughter and I nearly flipped. We love canned del Monte spinach and have never found it cheaper than a 1.50 each, so to find it for only 1.00 was a big treat.
And we love hot cocoa. I love to add peppermint to it. Did you know they have peppermint whipped cream? So good and really delicious on top of hot chocolate.
Thanks Emmy and Paul, great video.
I hope you guys have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I can hardly wait. It's the one time a year I make my candied yams from scratch.
Funny, I grew up on the canned yams with marshmallows in top...
But once I tasted fresh, I never went back to canned.
My favorite foods at the Thanksgiving dinner are:
Stuffing
Candied yams
And my homemade cranberry sauce. So good.
What are your favorites?
Great deals! I adore stuffing and the turkey with gravy!! We don't have either very much except at the holidays lol!
I go to Foodbanks & leaves less desire to go spend money at grocery stores. My pantry looks like a well feed blood tick about to pop. Got German Chocolate cake Monday at FB had not eaten any in years, I love it.
Oh German chocolate cake is amazing!
@@FrugalMoneySaver I bought a Key Lime pie with the holiday price reductions, a sin I must indulge. I like a pumpkin pie as well.
I have my claw crab meat for Christmas Eve Polish Wigilia Dinner. $8.99 a can. Also bought champagne during the year for $6.00 a bottle. We like it dry (Brut)
Lots of times sold out before the holidays. Haven't checked the price lately but I am sure it probably went up. Been getting the loss leaders every week from ShopRite and Acme. Heard ketchup & tomato products will be in short supply
around April. So I am going to stock up now especially if I see a sale. Distilled water shortage. Get some now if you need for medical machines etc. Only use distilled water in your steam iron.
Great advice and suggestions! Thank you!
I’ve been making my own bread rolls. They are 50p each to buy in the shop, I can make them for 4p. I must try your bagel recipe. Petrol (gas) is $7.44 a gallon here in the UK btw …
Thanks for sharing and watching!
God bless you both for sharing your lives and frugal tips with us I look forward to your channel every week.
Thank you so much Hilda! God Bless you as well!
Cream cheese,Chocolate Chips, butter, Ritz crackers, soda. All have been at amazing loss leader prices. I also have bought flour and sugar at low prices for baking. I usually start stocking up in September. It helps out so much with the holiday festivities!
YAY! Great items! Yes, it does help!
I was able to find turkey at our local Giant Eagle store for $.47 a pound! I got a 15 pound turkey for just over seven dollars. I also got walnuts at 2 pounds for $5 at Marc’s a local northeastern Ohio chain and fresh Ocean Spray cranberries at 2 bags for $3. I am well on my way to Thanksgiving dinner! Hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday too!
Thanks so much Lorraine! You all as well!
I'm going to make these on my next days off, thanks Emmy.
Emmy I made them this afternoon I wish I could post a photo here to show you, thank you so much for a delicious recipe. I'm making another lot this evening to freeze.
I have all my food for thanksgiving and Christmas including my special crack candy🌻
I’m going to try and get another Turkey and ham if their super cheap for New Years or later in the year.
Oh wonderful!!
Loved this video! I always forget about making bagels but will be making them this week. I saw that two stores in our area have sweet potatoes on sale 8 lbs for $1.00. 😮 I've never seen them that low and will be stocking up.
OH WOW! Great price!
Those bagels are lovely! I’m totally making some! Thank you ❤
So yummy!
I should say, next to my hubby! He loves bagels
LOL! Of course!
Hubby makes peanut brittle for family and friends. Various flavors. We have been buying all year long. The raw spanish peanuts I ordered in bulk the first of October. About 35 batches.
We try to get it all mailed out by December.
Oh how wonderful! Sounds yummy!
Loved the bagels. I purchased butternut squash for 49 cents a pound and I am going to make a savory soup. Also bought sweet potatoes for 49 cent a pound will be baking some and roasting the rest.
Butternut soup is so yummy!
Really enjoyed your homey video today Emmy and Paul. Lovely bagels 🔥🏡.
Thanks so much Helen!
Your bagels looked so delicious. Great job! We have been staying home more too. We noticed last month we were going somewhere so often we ended up overspending in the gas amount. So now we are making do with the food we have, making sure to combine trips when we do go out and finding things to do at home so we stay at home. When we went to our local Kroger store they had miniature candy bars on a clearance sale that were in a square shape. I suggested we get them and put them on a plate at Christmas for the guests we have on Christmas Day. We paid $2.28 for a 14 oz. bag. One less thing I have to make. A local grocery store had confectioner's sugar and brown sugar on sale for $1.28 for a 2# bag, so I stocked up. They also had flour on sale for $1.49 for 5# bag, normally $2.29.
What a great idea to use the candy as a sweet treat! Great prices!
