- Hey FreeGang! Thanks for tuning into our first USA grocery shopping video!
Today we visit the USA's biggest grocery store - Walmart! As a British family that is used to UK shopping, this was quite the experience as we see if we can get any good US deals and try to navigate Walmart for the first time in years - and with no budget!
We do some US and UK food grocery price comparisons, check out the vegan food options in Walmart, and come back with a nice US food grocery shopping haul!
We make these videos to bring smiles and entertain you, these videos are also good for anyone looking for money saving tips, vegan shopping at Walmart shopping on a budget, anyone conscious of the cost of living or their financial situation, or anyone just trying to save money! So hopefully it can help you with personal finance. We hope you enjoy this vegan US Walmart grocery haul.

Hey FreeGang! We had so much fun shopping at Walmart! Please suggest any other places you would like to see us go whilst here is the USA 🇺🇸
Target 🎯
US Aldi vs UK Aldi
Target and Trader Joe's
Hopefully your meals planning turns out for you guys and take care and just keep rising 💚👆
I think you’d love Aldi over there.ive seen plenty of hauls on here. Riveted. Awesome watching 💯🙌🔥
You did great shopping!! $100 for all that was amazing! Organic and healthier foods are usually more expensive
Thanks for the feedback! 👍
I love your saying, “You can’t leave them there for that”…😁
It's becoming the thing to say when you find a good deal! 😃
We call them French fries because the potatoes are French cut and then they’re fried. But also there’s crinkle cut fries, steak fries, waffle fries (from potatoes not real waffles lol), then shoe string fries, cut real thin but long, and curly fries. Or chop up a couple of potatoes into small cubes and make fried potatoes and add any kind of oil and seasoning you like. Endless possibilities with a potato. Lol 🥔🍟
Yes you are right, would like too, Hi how are you doing, don't mind me by coming by your comment section, thanks and where are you from?
Also today a waitress said do i want american fries or hash browns and I was like whats an american fry? Apparently its a fry thats in a cube square shape
It's not because of the cut. Look it up and you will see.
$101 is great for all that food. Would love to see a tour of the villa.
The same food in Oklahoma, Indiana, Iowa, North Carolina and other states would be about $80-85. (Except we don't need to buy watermelon, we usually grow them, or someone we know does.)
@@jstringfellow1961we live in Wilmington, NC a tourist area. So in our area $101 would be a great price for all that food. We also were recently in Orlando, the last week of April and the first week of May, so the price they paid was actually quite good.
The small orange square on the Walmart shelf tag is usually the price per UNIT (per each, pound, ounce, etc). It's supposed to make price comparisons easier.
Thanks for the info! we'll keep that in mind next time we're in Walmart 👌🙂
Yes please I would love to see the house tour ❤
I’m glad you had fun. Walmart corporation is my employer. I’m on the supply chain side with the Sam’s club. I hope you guys are having a blast.
Why is it every time Brits visit Walmart, they only go to the grocery dept? Just once I wish they would do a full tour and show just exactly what is available in Walmart. Show all of the departments so their fellow Brits know the full scope of the store.
You can easily guess the scope by understanding they usually have at least 1 of everything; from an oil filter, to an eyeglass place, to clothes, electronics, crafts, shoes, housewares, furniture, appliances, etc.
I live in a small city & ours is not even half the size of the super stores, and I am confident to find anything I need or want.
Yeah. Go to the camping section!
Now that was an experience walking around Walmart with you all! Some items were really expensive compared to here but, some items were cheaper. Enjoy yourselves! 👏👏👏👏👍💗💗💗💗🇬🇧
Macaroni is not found on the international aisle, there is a whole separate aisle for that. Goya is the producer of Spanish food, canned beans, spices, marinades, and flavored rice, yellow rice, rice.and beans .
I’m watching you shop and I’m stunned! So many things you said “ wow that’s a great deal” I could only dream of buying. No, I’m not riding the government hand out system. I’m retired and still working a part time job to keep the utilities on. Fresh fruit and veg is a treat for me. Congratulations on being able to holiday in America, I’ll be the one cleaning your villa.
I love how much more excited about the Pokémon cards your son was than the possibility of a guitar lol
Well in all fairness, they were going to take the guitar away later and they are not likely to do that with Pokemon cards...
@@scottmooredrakoedragon9891 He probably has a guitar at home, they just didn't want to have to ship/take it on the plane but want him to have a guitar while they are in the states. :) I suspect they got him a guitar somewhere else. He just really wanted those cards!
As long as you don't mistake Florida as representative of what the rest of our country is like. 😊
Each region, within each state, varies greatly from one another.
First time watching you, so I don't know how many other states or regions you've been to. ❤
Glad you're here! I was backpacking through the UK back in '88. Lots of people love to criticize us, without ever having even been to our country. 🌳🏔️🌅🏞️🏜️🌋
Basically stay in the red states unless you packed a tent ⛺️
Hey, thanks for your comment 😊
We appreciate your input as even though we've been to the USA across a few different states over the past 20 years and have seen how it can vary, we don't know it as well as a USA resident like yourself, so thanks again 👍
Additionally, we love the country and have no need to criticize. We like and embrace the differences and contrast between nations, and like to learn as we go! 😃
I always buy Vidalia onions. They are a sweet onion and so good.
I absolutely love your video reactions! Your family dynamic is genuine and sweet. You have an incredible son, so patient and respectful; he has a kind heart and is very intelligent. I just subscribed to see what other gems you have. - Greg in Ohio
Love your videos, every time I pop to the shop for something I think about your £30 budget for a weekly shop!
Love that!
$100.01 is pretty good for three people. I usually spend around $50.00 a week just for myself. 🙂 🇺🇲
Great video! Just wanted to add, if you get any kind of veggies, you can get these thin plastic bag to put them in (free), they're usually all around the produce aisles.
Thank you for your kind words and thanks for the info! We'll look out for them, next time we're at Walmart 😄
Hope you’re all having an incredible holiday, hope you’re enjoying Disney World too:)) I’d love to see what the villa is like 🩷💙xx
Loved this video, I think bob was more excited than Katie in Walmart. Not too bad a shop for €100. I would love a villa tour that would be great. I was wondering you were talking about buying something then donating it , if you could and there is a place near you how about buying cat &dog food and donating it to a shelter. A target trip would be fab also. Enjoy your stay guys.
As far as scallons, that word in my experience is only encountered on sit down restaurant menus. I almost never hear or see that word in any other situation.
I love ur vids they have helped me massively with my mental health. Can’t wait for more to come ❤
We're glad to hear that 🙏
Yes please, would love a tour of the villa!!
Great vid! Thanks for highlighting how you can in fact eat healthy here. I'm always surprised by how many people I meet overseas who think all we eat is American cheese and sugar bread.😅
Hey, thanks for your comment 😊
We've found it very easy to eat healthy here, and have felt great. I think in the end it comes down to the person choices we choose to make 👍

Good to see varied food ,suppose shops bigger over there 😊
Walmart is not just a supermarket. In fact, only about 20% of the store is for groceries. Foreigners seem to think Walmart is only a food store.
Walmart and Target only added groceries like thirty years ago.
Nope, I'm a Brit and I don't think that at all. I love Walmart for cheaper Disney stuff, clothing, toys etc I LOVE Walmart 😍
Depends on if the Walmart is super center Walmart or just a regular Walmart.
I have had a lot of family from out of the country request a trip to Wal-Mart and not one of them thought it would just be groceries because they have the internet like everyone else, and have seen the videos about the legend that is Wal-mart. We end up spending a really long time going down aisle after aisle, gasp after gasp at the sheer amount of things they can now finally see for themselves in person instead of just in video.
You should have put most of the loose fruit and veggies in the designated bags.
Great picks! There are so many significant figures in this line.
Next time y'all go to get a watermelon, look for one with a yellow spot where it was sitting on the ground in the field. They're usually sweeter and more flavorful
Watching all this shopping and thinking to myself " did those Bananas and avocados get squished?"
😂😂😂 We've very careful with our bananas and avocados! 🍌🥑🍌🥑
Jo Jo is so funny beanssss
Welcome to Orlando fam 😍
2 kids are grown-up, Bob and Katie!
😂😂😂
Welcome to America. You were in a Super Walmart!! 🎉 they are mega Walmarts with absolutely everything. I shop there .. yard home clothes!!
You actually got a great haul. Have fun!
Thank you so much Amy 🤗
Have a lovely time guys, this looks amazing ❤🎉
Thank you so much Susie 💚🤗💚
I'm glad you had fun at Walmart .. lol... Its always the tourists that have fun at Walmart .. This is my first time watching your channel .. I enjoyed it and will watch more .. I just have one criticism and it might help you for your next shopping experience in the USA. What we do when we put an item in our cart, and later decide we do not want that item, we either return it to where we got it, or we bring it up to the register with us and tell the cashier that we changed our mind and no longer want that item. They will promptly have someone return it to its proper place, that way frozen bread doesn't end up in the regular bread isle and defrost which renders it unsellable. That is something maybe helpful for any tourist visiting the US or anywhere actually. It makes the store workers job easier and less write offs for food no longer sellable.
Lidl and Aldi are private-label retailers. They do not sell brand-name products (at least not for the majority of their wares.) That is why they can offer their products at a cheaper price, as they are in effect, generic products. The baked beans that are eaten in the U.K. are actually the traditional recipe for Boston baked beans. There is also pork-&-bans, made with salt-pork or bacon. (And they are hardly "niche" in the U.S.) Heinz, the top-selling brand in the United Kingdom, is an American company based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. By the way, traditional Mexican refried beans are made with "manteca," or lard. Look for fat-free or vegan/vegetarian.
Thanks so much for all of the helpful information! 👍
@@FamilyFreedom My pleasure. You are most welcome. Have continued happy travels.
I like the justification, "You can't leave it there for that."
We’re glad you like it 😀
The US is SO expensive for groceries compared to the UK, one bonus for the UK 🇬🇧. 😊
Never clicked on a video this fast this is the video I have been waiting for this challenge should be interesting and comparing the prices. Hope you enjoyed shopping at Walmart.🤗💚
Hope you enjoyed it Chloe!
I enjoyed every bit of it. 💚💚💚
One of my life goals is to go to Walmart 🤣 hopefully me and my hubby are off to America in a few years. Great vlog guys 🤘 x
We hope you get to go! ✈️🇺🇸
How fun... I'm going to subscribe. Especially like JoJo😇,.. great video
I'd love to see the house tour!
A $101 for fresh produce, organic, and vegetarian food in Florida?!?! Wow! I live in rural northwest Oklahoma and going to my nearest Walmart it’d cost me even more than that. I’ve visited friends and family in Florida, but they live in different parts of the state. Maybe because Disney World and Universal, etc, are nearby the Walmart you went to is busy enough that it can keep those foods at a lower price than out here where I live. I definitely think you must have found some good buys on items as well. It’s not hard to do at Walmart (or maybe I think that because my mom is an employee and has been with the company for several decades now so I’m just used to shopping there).
Fun video! Thanks for sharing your experience! The villa looks really nice as well!
It’s got to be the rural location. Those prices are near identical to okc. My son lives west-central and does his shopping when he comes to visit because it’s so much cheaper.
I remember when America was so cheap for food and drinks and to eat out but like everything prices go up like they have here in the uk
Over the past 3 years prices have really shot up, and they're still going up.
Amazing video thanks for sharing hope you are having a nice time 😊
Similar to how you refer to the shopping carts as a "trolly", some areas in America calls it a "buggy".
This was great Free gang. Please do a tour of your villa. xx
Love watching this video. That little wooden "surfboard" is actually a skimboard. It doesn't float and typically used to skim across shallow water
Hope the weather stays good for yous. Have a lovely time.
Thanks Fiona, we hope so too as it has been lovely so far ☀️😊
Yes for the tour
yes villa tour please
Thanks Sophie, we'll be doing a tour video for you soon 👍
Most food packages have the metric measurements on them right after the imperial ones. So they will say something like 6 oz/170.1 grams. We don't use the metric system but most of our stuff still has them or is converted from them (lots of technical and scientific things use metric and are converted to imperial before they go to the general public). And we also do in some cases use the metric system directly. In the case of food we buy soda in liters and for guns (ironically) we often use millimeter when measuring the caliber of the barrel/round.
Hi ALL, I've been looking for would to SEEING WHAT you get up to . When your on holiday You have to have a treet sometimes . No poregeots for brekferst ? It's all WAYS GOOD to see round other places .Take care and all the best. 😄😄😊👍👍👍
Yaaay I have been looking forward to this video! Im very curious can you tell the difference of quality/taste in our food here compared to at home?
Hey Shelby, thanks for tuning in and for commenting 👍
That's a good question. It's still early days so hard to tell right now, but so far nothing has jumped out as being better or worse 😊
Corn tortillas are for enchiladas or cookedf or a tostadad, burritos use flour tortillas!
Fab video, I hope you guys are having a great time 😊
Most of the time, the "reduced" items aren't reduced at all. They're the same price as before. Also, inflation has hit the US a lot unfortunately. That's why everything is more expensive
would love to see a tour of your villa xx
Hope you guys enjoy your shopping at Walmart ❤
Thanks William! 😊
For a big grocery store, If you get to Madison Wi., go to a Woodmans
Welcome to Walmart shopping, we all just go in there for a few items and end up with a cart full. lol =)
That could so easily be us! 😂
Jojo such a lovely boy
Thank you so much! JoJo appreciates the compliment 🤗💚
Just binge watched your videos and now I can’t stop watching
We appreciate you watching the videos Joshua 🙏😊
Hope your enjoying yourselfs, love to have you here, love from Maine Lorna ❤
Thank you Lorna!
Katie I was shopping saw a top on discount thought of you and said you can’t let for that price. So I brought it.
Great video guys I hope you are having a nice time in the USA 🇺🇸
We are having a great time here thank you John 🤗
Would love to,see around your villa please ❤
I totally want to see an ALDI trip... And Dollar Tree!!! Omg Katie will not want to leave anything there 😅
😂😂😂
You guys did well. You spent $101.00; it's cheap. Good job.
Thanks Barbara! 👍
Hi Family Freedom ❤
You guys should go at 11pm and youll have yourself a little show 🙂
You shopped great, al that for 100$!! very well done
According to my sons who work at WM, the groceries are to bring in customers to buy everything else thats general merchandise, but they essentially break even on the food
Wow! Thanks for the info. That makes sense as Walmart do so much more than food 😊
You guys are awesome, totally wish I could have joined you and maybe helped a little with information and getting used to America while learning about the UK, you guys seem like a lovely bunch, great content!❤️
Thanks so much for your kind comment! 🙏
@@FamilyFreedom Absolutely! Thank you for the content! I love learning about people from different places, also, love your reactions!
Hi family freedom hope you are well and having a good day! Interesting video compared to UK shops! Especially the sweet corn and peas.
Take care
Just keep rising 💚🌻🌿
Hey Lana, thanks for your comment 😊
We're happy that you found this interesting, and we look forward to visiting many more places in the US with you guys 👍
Have a great day, just keep rising 💚🌻🌿
Love your son’s “Cymru” t shirt. I’m from North Wales, but now live in Canada. So Cymru Am Byth 👍
Hi, Family Freedom, I have been to Walmart in Orlando, it's massive! Great choice to get your groceries from. 👍
Judging by your grocery store shopping, I really hope you all try good food.
Great video guys. Really interesting to see a US supermarket. Would love to share as much of your holiday that you are willing to. But don't have all work and no play. ❤
Thanks Lindsay. It's an absolute pleasure to be able share our holiday and lives with you, and for it to br so gratefully received 🙏😊👌
wait, "biggest supermarket" ? The Walmart I go to, the grocery section is maybe only 10-20% of the place. A normal supermarket is much larger am I right? But yes it's fun to visit a Walmart.
I was laughing how you kept saying how big everything was! 😂 You should try Whole Foods. Since Amazon bought it, the prices aren’t as bad and they have loads of fun vegan options.
Ah cool, we look forward to going there! 👍
The reason why the pasta sauce jars are so big is because so many people eat pasta to stretch their wallet, because food prices have gone up nearly 25% in the last year.
the same for the uk though, we just buy more jars lol
Large families buy big jars too.
In the south a "shopping cart" is known as a buggy. We call em buggies. 😅😅
That's cool! Thanks for letting us know 👍😊
Walmart is a grocery store / clothing store but I wouldn't say Walmart is our biggest grocery store because it is not I live in Texas so our biggest grocery store that just sells nothing but groceries is H-E-B or Kroger
I highly suggest you visit Washington, DC and see how America began and how we became the nation we are. Cheerio.
Thank you so much for the suggestion John! Washington DC sounds amazing, we love learning about the history of different countries 💙🇺🇸
Here in South Florida we have higher prices at our Wal-Mart.
Yes, I was just going to say in Oklahoma the prices are about 15-25% cheaper in some cases. The ice cream she chose is $2.97 here and $3.44 there. It's a choice we make to not have the ocean in our backyard.
Hi from Glasgow Scotland 😊😊
Hi Patricia! 👋🏴
I reckon they figured out the "baked beans" bit by now. British baked beans are US pork n beans, without the pork.
If you want to know the better deals you want to look at the price in the red box. It breaks the price down to a smaller weight.
Thanks for the tip!
We tend to shop at Publix when in Florida
Thanks for letting us know Holly. We may go there now 👍
organic is normally always going to be more expensive because it's extra work taking care in the fields also water melons are not weighed pretty much Walmart buys that that load and it all comes in that box that your son picked out from, you can't really weigh otherwise you will be there forever
Loved this shopping vlog, great to see Walmart, Enjoy your holiday x 1:13
Thank you 🤗
You must love cooking to cook on your holidays. I absolutely refuse to cook on holidays because I hate it! It's my chance to have a break. It looks like America is no more expensive than Australia but they have a better vegan range.
prop loaves of bread is expencive in america and milk is dearer
For all you got, that is fairly reasonable in USA right now!
That's good to know, thanks Brian 👍
Watermelon lasts a few days after cutting
Would love to see the villa please!
Video coming soon Joanna! 👌
