If everything goes up by even a dime each week without end -within 10 weeks time each product we buy will cost another dollar. It won’t take too long before it all becomes completely unaffordable for most people.
They are awful no matter what store you go to. I check the sales fliers and only buy what is on sale and plan my menus from what I can afford to buy. I don’t shop at Walmart I shop at the same grocery store and no longer buy name brands. I don’t know how people with kids can afford groceries. I am a senior citizen and can only afford to eat one meal a day and some times my Grandson buys me food. I have a pasta machine and make my own pasta and I make my own spaghetti cause and pizza sauce I grind my own meat it takes allot to save money on food these days.
I buy Sams 25 lb bag of bread flour, best deal around and makes fabulous bread/rolls. Its easy to make guys for pennies a loaf. Add 2 1/4 tsps instant yeast and one cup warm water (under 100*) let stand 10 mins to bubble up. Add 3 tbls of oil, sugar and 1 1/2 tsp salt, mix in 3 cups of flour, knead in bowl for 5 mins if sticky add another tbls of flour, if dry warm water ...make a ball, place in a greased bowl, cover bowl and set on stove to rise for 2 hrs. Punch down, use flour if needed to knead another cpl mins, place in greased bread pan, shape to the pan, cover and let rise 45 mins or so, bake at 350* for 30 mins. On rolls when you punch down just divide into 12 pieces and roll a ball then place in a greased pan to rise. One bag makes approx 22 loaves.
Danno, I appreciate and enjoy your videos! They are super informative, inspiring and entertaining. I look forward to them daily. Please keep up the great work.😊❤
I use to work for Walmart a decade ago… they even more shady now after 2020/Covid than before. They know they can blame inflation and lie about people not wanting to work, and people will buy those toed lines and not blame them for jacking up the prices to break the economy. If you have money to give the higher ups major bonuses… you have money to hire people
They used the shut down times to formulate further the destruction of our system, even reformulated foods, can sizes ect. What is to come is going to blow people's minds. The AMERICA We new is now owned by Klaus and the W E F.😢
When we went to Ft Lauderdale on vacation we saw the yachts of the Walmart family… just to fill up that ugly boat, it costs $1 million dollars. All paid with our hard earned dollars that they get by guilting us into paying more for basic items. I even read that Walmart tried to justify their insane price increases by claiming that’s it our own fault because we don’t spend enough on whimsical luxury goods such as TVs, large electronics,etc.
I work for Walmart, and I know for a fact that employee's hours have been getting cut. I am scheduled to work 32 hours this week. I am planning to retire in three years, and I can't wait! Next month I will be with the company 35 years. OMG!
lol you must be NEW around here. The money is ALWAYS for the OWNERS or MANAGERIAL Class, workers are for Teenages learning. You gotta play the corproate game because no matter what the rich, like the tax man are taking their fair share. Workers are replaceable, always have been, always will be, because anyone or anything can do it.
Here is another "I have lived long enough". A church sale I have been going for years this time was so crowded it was impossible to even find a parking spot. I managed, but the number of people was unbelievable. More people are chasing deals. What in particularly interesting is that people were buying cookbooks. For once in my life I've seen it. BTW, prices are much higher than ever. Nothing describes the economy better than the resale part of it. Edit.
I have purchased several old cookbooks in the last two or three years. Less ingredients and some very simple mal plans in them, I reference them often.
My Kroger had a ton of swerve, Splenda regular and brown sugar artificial sugars on clearance for some reason, the expiration date was in 2026. They even had at ton of Kroger black pepper on clearance with a best date in 2026. Kroger is always my favorite place to shop, as long as you shop the deals.
In our region we only have a food lion and Walmart because Walmart put the grocery stores out of business, now they're gouging us. So much for Sam's dream.
New subscriber here. Thanks for all the great information. Sincerely, Debbie 🙋🧑🦽 and Dexter-Dog 🐕🐾 my sweet tiny rescued Chihuahua 🐕 companion living 🏠 a quiet crafty life in southern California.🙋🧑🦽🐾🐕🏠🙏🙏🌅🏜️🏖️☀️🌵😎🥪🤟
Not Walmart, but I bought two "5lb" bags of shredded cheese at Sam's club through grocery delivery. The bags weighed 4.5 lbs in reality. These corporations are ripping us off!
Please watch your weights on products you buy. Mega Corps are banking on the fact that you're not paying attention to anything. Grocery shopping has now become an Olympic sport now.
It's like that on a lot of products, I like Sams canned chicken but doing Weight Watchers I realized by weighing the chicken it's not 12 ozs, it's really about 7 ozs of chicken so it's 2 meals instead of 3 for me, when prepping goods this is important.
@lisah.8653 Some canned meats canned in water or oil, such as tuna, list net weight. as well as dr.( drained) weight, so you know that you are getting an ounce less. I wish everything did that. I used to follow a lady on YT who measured/ weighed meats, fish and fruits/vegetables and the liquid in each and the actual food amount was inconsistent even with the same brand.
i do the same thing with canned items, the shake test to see how much water is in the can..i also turn glass jars upside down pickle jars, olive jars, etc; to also check the liquid level..appreciate all the info you share with us..from connecticut
Sometimes it's best to just stay out of stores. I'm trying to cut back. Today, I made pasta putinesca. I used to make spaghetti with sausage, onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Now, it's diced tomatoes, onion powder, Italian herbs, salt, and today I added a tiny bit of spinach that needed to be used. I have canned vegetables I paid 50 cents a can for. I'm going to use those completely up before paying 82 cents. I think if we all cut back and cleaned out our pantry and freezer.... grocery prices would drop!
I'm glad I've stocked up on a fair bit of stuff as all I have to last me 12 days is 3.20 UK pounds, about 4 dollars American I can only afford the cheapest bread and the filtered milk I get as I don't drink a lot of hot beverages to warrant the use of regular milk as filtered lasts longer.
Yup regular foods at Walmart and other places are cheaper but the Oatmeal for instance has pesticide CHLORMEQUAT and GLYPHOSATE in it. I rather spend more money. But I get your video message . Thanks☮️
Dano here in Missouri Walmart I picked up a loaf of French bread from the bakery the sign said rolled back to a $1.00 down from a $1.49. The bread is 1/3 the size it was before,so they decreased the bread size and rolled back the price . But what they really did was make the bread into a smaller loaf so you need 3 that’s a price increase.
We've cut way back on our Walmart stops, even though we pass it on the way to Kroger (or almost anywhere else.) We hit Kroger at least twice a week, generally Tuesdays and Fridays, when they are well-stocked.
Former U.S. Labor Secretary Robert Reich came out swinging against retail giant Walmart on Saturday, accusing the company of gouging customers and helping to drive inflation. The celebrity economist said in a Tweet that the mass merchandiser spiked prices on its private label brand, Great Value, and nearly doubled its net income to $10.5 billion near the end of 2023. That enabled the company to send $5.9 billion in buybacks and dividends to shareholders, Reich said in the Tweet. “When I say price gouging is driving inflation, this is what I mean,” he said on X (formerly Twitter). ~Supermarket News, 3/26/24
A few years ago i bought a bunch of sugar from Aldis cheap, Vacuum Sealed them using my Food Saver, i still have sealed bags in my food storage using it today. Food Savers Danno-Mites, save money by making your food dollar go farther and last longer, beat food inflation and shrinkflation, and allow frozen food to last much much longer. D, let me know if you have a food saver or not, if not i may hook you up. It would help a lot of people to see it used and its benefits especially when food budgets are shrinking. Salt, Honey, and Spam are good for infinity lol. Edit, great job cross linking the videos Danno.
I just did the same with cocoa. Sam’s had a 23 ounce package for $7.58 With the shortages and price hikes on it coming I vacuumed sealed 4 pounds of it
Sugar and salt are about the only things that should NOT be vacuum sealed. They will turn into bricks that literally will have to be broken up with a hammer. But I use mine for a lot of things other than food.
I sold Tupperware for 35+ yrs, some things they make I use daily but my food saver is so awesome, great long term investment even if only use it for meat sales
My daughter as at our Walmart yesterday. She said many things she was looking for were gone the shelves though they were filled just not the normal products. Crackers were less, coffees were less. They were selling off the fabrics and are not going to restock them. They seem to be making changes but even the employees don’t understand what is going on.
Walmart clearance products all the time. As for the results, with every rotation there are fewer options of those products. Other brands are replaced with generic WM brands. BTW, they decided not to carry fabrics at WM about 20? years ago? And changed their minds a few years later. Basically, they are working on keeping very few options and they are the cheapest options for them. Edit. My comments disappear all the time.
@@janedowasjanedow in the rural areas they still sell fabrics...in my area, one store sells pre-cut fabrics for quilting, and another store still sells bolt fabrics but it's a small selection...also they sell a limited supply of sewing machines, items needed for sewing, and sewing machine parts...
Not too long ago was a few years. I am still using one that has a .19 sticker on it. 🤣 Granted I do not use regular salt very much at all. Many other spice mixtures have salt in them and I usually use those. I have fallen in love with Dan-O's. Of course it is readily available for me as I live in the Louisville area, which is their home base. They are Habitat for Humanity supporters. I like that.
Piggly Wiggly were so lucky to have in both surrounding counties around us. They are like the old fashioned grocery stores where you can find everything, even pigs heads 😂❤
*****DANNO.....stock up on the 1.89 varieties of campbells soup at kroger now for .99......kroger is gonna pull a fast one starting Wed...changing it to just chicken noodle and tomato for .99!!!******
Don't forget, you can get frozen corn, as well as regular veggies, (bell peppers, tomatoes-dice them up after peeling them, green beans, jalapeno peppers, onions, etc.) and dehydrate them. Store them inside mason jars. I use them *all* the time. I've done from frozen but I really enjoy doing it from fresh produce. That's another way I've saved money.
I am so grateful that I stocked up, trust me, I'm so thankful! I'm also grateful that we stocked up on foods before 99 Store closed and way prior throughout the years. So, so, so grateful. We got Bush's beans at Ollie's for $1.49. THANK God we stocked up on that, pasta and other things. I vacuum sealed lots of pasta and it was NOT this expensive at all. Whew, y'all, seriously, STOCK up on 'today's' prices because it's just getting way worse.
I know I have said this before, but our Walmart prices are skyrocketing everyday! This is happening in Michigan and this has been happening for a long time! Also,our local Wal-Mart is really limiting the options in groceries,clothes,personal care products, etc....
Tillamook is my favorite cheese, butter & ice cream. I order Walmart food online, because my membership provides free delivery for shipping & for $35+ purchases. Keystone is great, but expensive. Spam is now a long term treat like a Danish ham.
there is a new klub in our naybor hood were all canning 2getr share eveything i went 2 meet market last week spent 175 worth beef we cut up vac sealed and canned get 2 gether with freinds or fam spilt it all up it helps
That's a huge difference in price between the DelMonte canned fruit and that GreatValue. I wonder what a side by side comparison of the contents of the cans would look like.
when i use to work at the store i got into a habit of comparing the store/generic brand to a name brand and quite often the only difference was the cheaper one didn't contain preservatives, so it didn't last as long on the shelf. Sometimes it was totally different ingrediants but i was amazed how many did just lacked preservatives.
@@steveherr450 There was a prepping channel I watched a few months ago where the gentleman opened a can of each of the canned meat brands products and compared them by how they looked, tasted, and if the contents were true to the stated weight. It was helpful to me to see the video of what they looked like without having to buy them all myself.
Prices have quadrupled in this price gouging gone mad. While social security only went up 3.5% and we don't get those subsidies you always see. Somebody needs to stop this gouging and we need to boycott these corporations gouging us.
Previously I shopped at Fry’s (Kroger) and Sprouts. Fry’s pricing was very reasonable. Then I moved to a small tourist town where I just have Walmart and a bunch of regional grocery stores. I buy, as much as possible, organic and gluten free. Walmart’s pricing for those items is waaay better than the regional grocery stores, often by $1-$2 an item. Never any issues with lack of stock either. The Aldi in my area is new, and moved into a pre-existing building, and is quite small with limited inventory. I only went once.
Some of the Gluten Free Progresso soup isn't boldly labeled, but the cream of mushroom is GF & perfect for recipes, green beans etc. So for those allergies, check Progresso regular cans, some have GF in fine print on the side.
I love Sargento cheese. My Ingle's had the sliced and shredded last week for $1.98!!! That is when I stock up big time. Thanks Danno. Blessings to you and Jess.❤
Good info! EKY noticeably low on pasta - got the last box of three cheese shells. We are in canning country - sugar is there but lower stock than usual. No canned kale on the shelves - been that way for months. Good deals on “fancy” cheeses as well as “standard” block cheese. Beans and rice (dry goods) low stock.
Next time you see a guy like me and think im down on my luck and turned to drugs.....nope...I just bought a bag of apples....that's how I hit rock bottom...
Greetings from North Carolina! I was just compiling my next Walmart delivery order while watching your Saturday video. You have got us beat on your egg prices, especially on the 60 ct. ours are $12.03 . No bargain for us. Most everything else was the same price. Glad to see you compare something other than “junk” food. Basic food necessitates far outweigh non-nutritional. I’ll sit down and pull up Aldi and Walmart apps and start comparing the two. Sometimes Aldi has the better prices on what’s on my shopping list. Next time it could be Walmart. Actually these two stores are across the street from each other so it’s no inconvenience to shop both stores in one day. Aldi had sugar $0.50 cheaper (4lb bag), canned corn beef (12oz)was also $.50 cheaper. I make my own hash by adding a couple of fresh potatoes and it still comes out cheaper than canned hash. Homemade is always better. Thank you for the heads up on the reductions you found. Oh! In their bakery dept, French and Italian bread has gone down from $1.49 back to a $1.00 a loaf. Also, great value 2 liter bottles of soda have gone down from $1.48 to $1.00. Enjoy your evening! 🫵 on to my next adventure.
Seasoning is definitely something to keep a good stock of. Even a simple house seasoning of 2 parts salt, 1 part black pepper, and 1 part garlic powder can take meat or veggies from bland to amazing. If you store it right, it lasts for years.
Hello Danno. I went to Walmart Supercenter yesterday (on a Friday) it was around 6:00-6:30pm. And the store was quite, wasn't alot of people there. I told the cashier, you guys are not busy for a Friday. She said yeah, it's suprising. This is Lewis Center, Ohio.
My dear Danno, Jess and your RUclips Comment family members, our Walmart at the Cortlandt Town Center here in Cortlandt Manor, NY is dirty and products out of place. Some shelves are empty. Prices have risen too. Admire you all. Star Trek Suzi
Our Walmart is absolutely filthy. The refrigerated unit's doors look like people have actually thrown up on them.🤢 They smell so bad. I have issues with the odor of the store. The meat cases smell like they have expired meat. I have turned it in constantly but nothing is done. We drive over 200 miles to several small towns local grocery stores to get product. They're clean and I'm more at ease with purchasing.
I went to Walmart Grocery in Meadowbrook plaza. I was getting ready to go in and I noticed there were no shopping carts for the customers. Being as who I am I went outside and got about 8 shopping carts for the customers and stuck them inside the shopping cart room. This guy walked up to me started telling me not to do that . He wasn’t on the clock yet and I was making it hard on him. The customers didn’t have shopping carts but I was making it hard for him ? I said you’re welcome and I’ll talk to Walmart about that. I did go to customer service and told them how the employee acted but I don’t want anyone to lose their job but I did appreciate how he talked to me. Other words he could have said I appreciate the help but I rather you not do that. When I left Walmart there were no shopping carts and he closed the door to the shopping cart room.
What about fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, fresh tuna, meat from the butcher round the corner, fresh bread fron your local baker, etc. Do you eat anything but can food in the USA?
I usually do my grocery shopping at Aldi, even there too i noticed a lot of bare spaces on the shelves. Here you talked about 1# bags/boxes of pasta vs. 2# bags. They never have the cheaper products on display, forcing you to buy the pricier one. Not me. Walk away. I've noticed with Bushes baked beans almost like buying soup. So much water. 🙏❤😡
The beginning items were depressing just because of the indigestibility of those items, whereas the Keystone meat cans are the gold bricks of nutrition and @ ten dollars great. Bear in mind we’re fighting depression and good dietary items are vital.
vinegar is a must. always have an extra gallon or two around ... never know what you might find to pickle. also a decent salad dressing [AC is exquisite]
THANK YOU for doing all that you do. I have question. Do you ever look at ingredients on the labels. I have a grandchild that can't have food dyes. I am looking for deals on everything from food to tooth paste that have no food dyes.
I haven't bought Babybel cheese in a long time. I did buy a 3-pack of Laughing Cow 🐂 at Sam's ( on sale) a couple of months ago. One night, I wanted a bagel but didn't have any cream cheese! Light bulb 💡 moment --- I used some Laughing Cow🐂 and it was delicious! 😋
I was today at Walmart for my weekly grocery shopping, and I was shocked by looking at the prices. I am not sure if i will continue shopping there anymore. For years i go to Walmart to shop as my local grocery stores charge too much compared to Walmart. However, at this point there is no difference so no point for me going there anymore. Sad
Danno & Jess ❤Food Morning .Always Watch the Walmart Video Since It's a place I shop..Not much Choice😠3 close places on bus Rout by me. PNW.The Foothills of the Olympics 🏔️ WA Thanks! ❤🕊️ Lord's Blessings,All..Keep on Prepping ☘️😊
A lot of Walmarts haven't been carrying the Keystone canned meat products, lately. We have three Walmart locations here in the Prescott/Prescott Valley AZ area and none of them have had Keystone on the shelves for months now.
If everything goes up by even a dime each week without end -within 10 weeks time each product we buy will cost another dollar. It won’t take too long before it all becomes completely unaffordable for most people.
It has been a thing for several years. Looks like a lot of people are just beginning to realize that. Edit.
it is now dont worry biden will feed u4 free fjb
@@janedowasjanedow ??????????????????🤔🤪
I agree. I was thinking it won’t be long before we’ll be paying around ten bucks for every item.
They are awful no matter what store you go to. I check the sales fliers and only buy what is on sale and plan my menus from what I can afford to buy.

One bag makes approx 22 loaves.
I wonder if sams cheaper on larger bags ? Thanks for sharing
How much sugar
@@SheilaTrinity 3 tbls
@LonaSDuff the 25 lb bread flour runs around $11.98 so baking my loaves comes out to around .75 a loaf.
Thank you for the recipe directions! ❤
Yes, absolutely right Danno. I went to Walmart today. A bottle of ketchup $4.49! Unbelievable
Try to find an Aldi near you. They beat walmart prices hands down. Even if you go every two or three months and load up.😊
Im amazed how you remember all those prices 😝 thanks for the info! Have a great weekend 😊
The water in the canned vegetables could be a bonus during SHTF situation , because there might not be running water .
Good thinking.
How about canned fruit?
@@elainemcwilliams1584 the same .
@Rob-lw1uw you can still use it to make soups or cook in it, veggie canned water would be crucial.
@Rob-lw1uw well for preparing vegetables , you wouldn’t need to have additional water .

hot dogs and frozen vegetable prices have gone up as well as canned soups. Prices of lemons and limes have actually gone done a little.
Eggs were 1.09 at Ruler (kroger) and .95 at Aldi. Was surprised by that.
Walmart is still charging 2.48.

Salt, Honey, and Spam are good for infinity lol. Edit, great job cross linking the videos Danno.
Love my vacuum sealer.
I just did the same with cocoa. Sam’s had a 23 ounce package for $7.58
With the shortages and price hikes on it coming I vacuumed sealed 4 pounds of it
Sugar and salt are about the only things that should NOT be vacuum sealed. They will turn into bricks that literally will have to be broken up with a hammer.
But I use mine for a lot of things other than food.
I sold Tupperware for 35+ yrs, some things they make I use daily but my food saver is so awesome, great long term investment even if only use it for meat sales
My daughter as at our Walmart yesterday. She said many things she was looking for were gone the shelves though they were filled just not the normal products. Crackers were less, coffees were less. They were selling off the fabrics and are not going to restock them. They seem to be making changes but even the employees don’t understand what is going on.
Walmart clearance products all the time. As for the results, with every rotation there are fewer options of those products. Other brands are replaced with generic WM brands. BTW, they decided not to carry fabrics at WM about 20? years ago? And changed their minds a few years later. Basically, they are working on keeping very few options and they are the cheapest options for them. Edit. My comments disappear all the time.
@@janedowasjanedow in the rural areas they still sell fabrics...in my area, one store sells pre-cut fabrics for quilting, and another store still sells bolt fabrics but it's a small selection...also they sell a limited supply of sewing machines, items needed for sewing, and sewing machine parts...
Great Value “Pop Tarts” are very good! Love the brown sugar cinnamon! My daughter prefers them to the Kelloggs Pop Tarts!
No to canned asparagus. Bleh
Agree all is mushy, doubt any vitamins left too
Agreed, yuck!!!!!!!!!!
Blackberries are starting to bloom!❤
Consequences of an eroding currency and purchasing power.
A $1.67 for salt ? I still have salt that I paid 29 cents for not too long ago. Now the cheapest if 69 cents 😮
Not too long ago was a few years. I am still using one that has a .19 sticker on it. 🤣 Granted I do not use regular salt very much at all. Many other spice mixtures have salt in them and I usually use those. I have fallen in love with Dan-O's. Of course it is readily available for me as I live in the Louisville area, which is their home base. They are Habitat for Humanity supporters. I like that.
@davidkessinger1581 I use Dan-o seasoning too it's a favorite at my house
Piggly Wiggly were so lucky to have in both surrounding counties around us. They are like the old fashioned grocery stores where you can find everything, even pigs heads 😂❤
My Piggly Wiggly is more expensive. I've compared
@@elorairby12 not here. I'm eastern North Carolina. They're our saving grace. Can't eat for a month from food Lion. They're pricing us out of food
Morning Danno and Jess.
I just found another food saver at a thrift store for $5
Buy bulk beans at the local co-op, much cheaper than canned Bush's.
*****DANNO.....stock up on the 1.89 varieties of campbells soup at kroger now for .99......kroger is gonna pull a fast one starting Wed...changing it to just chicken noodle and tomato for .99!!!******
Don't forget, you can get frozen corn, as well as regular veggies, (bell peppers, tomatoes-dice them up after peeling them, green beans, jalapeno peppers, onions, etc.) and dehydrate them. Store them inside mason jars. I use them *all* the time. I've done from frozen but I really enjoy doing it from fresh produce. That's another way I've saved money.
That 51 ounces of great value organic olive oil was $14.98 two weeks ago, now it is $19.98 at our Walmart also, in Virginia.
I am so grateful that I stocked up, trust me, I'm so thankful! I'm also grateful that we stocked up on foods before 99 Store closed and way prior throughout the years. So, so, so grateful. We got Bush's beans at Ollie's for $1.49. THANK God we stocked up on that, pasta and other things. I vacuum sealed lots of pasta and it was NOT this expensive at all. Whew, y'all, seriously, STOCK up on 'today's' prices because it's just getting way worse.
I been stopped shopping at Walmart
I know I have said this before, but our Walmart prices are skyrocketing everyday! This is happening in Michigan and this has been happening for a long time! Also,our local Wal-Mart is really limiting the options in groceries,clothes,personal care products, etc....
Thank you Danno keep up your good work to help us with food prices. Kris and Ron
Thank you Danno ❤️✝️
I need the distilled water. This past week, I got the last gallon from the local dollar store. I'm a bit north of you.
If you have a Menards near you, try them. They usually have hundreds of jugs of distilled water.
Tillamook is my favorite cheese, butter & ice cream. I order Walmart food online, because my membership provides free delivery for shipping & for $35+ purchases. Keystone is great, but expensive. Spam is now a long term treat like a Danish ham.
there is a new klub in our naybor hood were all canning 2getr share eveything i went 2 meet market last week spent 175 worth beef we cut up vac sealed and canned get 2 gether with freinds or fam spilt it all up it helps
I stopped buying gv unsalted butter( has natural flavors, why?) Only land o lakes ❤
Land o lakes unsalted butter has natural flavoring. I just looked at the one in my freezer.
Agree, LoL all the way. Get what you pay for.
That's a huge difference in price between the DelMonte canned fruit and that GreatValue. I wonder what a side by side comparison of the contents of the cans would look like.
when i use to work at the store i got into a habit of comparing the store/generic brand to a name brand and quite often the only difference was the cheaper one didn't contain preservatives, so it didn't last as long on the shelf. Sometimes it was totally different ingrediants but i was amazed how many did just lacked preservatives.
@@steveherr450 There was a prepping channel I watched a few months ago where the gentleman opened a can of each of the canned meat brands products and compared them by how they looked, tasted, and if the contents were true to the stated weight. It was helpful to me to see the video of what they looked like without having to buy them all myself.
Prices have quadrupled in this price gouging gone mad. While social security only went up 3.5% and we don't get those subsidies you always see. Somebody needs to stop this gouging and we need to boycott these corporations gouging us.
Previously I shopped at Fry’s (Kroger) and Sprouts. Fry’s pricing was very reasonable. Then I moved to a small tourist town where I just have Walmart and a bunch of regional grocery stores. I buy, as much as possible, organic and gluten free. Walmart’s pricing for those items is waaay better than the regional grocery stores, often by $1-$2 an item. Never any issues with lack of stock either. The Aldi in my area is new, and moved into a pre-existing building, and is quite small with limited inventory. I only went once.
22:59 yeah…. Not the greatest. Wow 🤦🏻♀️
To be fair, higher prices are everywhere. Stretch your dollar the best you can ❤
My favorite cheese is a New York sharp cheddar. Love Sargento, but I must say Giant Eagle Brand is quite good. Thanks again for the info, Danno!🙂
Some of the Gluten Free Progresso soup isn't boldly labeled, but the cream of mushroom is GF & perfect for recipes, green beans etc. So for those allergies, check Progresso regular cans, some have GF in fine print on the side.
I love Sargento cheese. My Ingle's had the sliced and shredded last week for $1.98!!! That is when I stock up big time.
Thanks Danno. Blessings to you and Jess.❤
Hey Danno!!! Massive recall on packaged ham!!!!!!! Unbelievable!!!!
It's hit eight states so far!!!!!
Good info! EKY noticeably low on pasta - got the last box of three cheese shells. We are in canning country - sugar is there but lower stock than usual. No canned kale on the shelves - been that way for months. Good deals on “fancy” cheeses as well as “standard” block cheese. Beans and rice (dry goods) low stock.
Next time you see a guy like me and think im down on my luck and turned to drugs.....nope...I just bought a bag of apples....that's how I hit rock bottom...
Greetings from North Carolina!
I was just compiling my next Walmart delivery order while watching your Saturday video. You have got us beat on your egg prices, especially on the 60 ct. ours are $12.03 . No bargain for us. Most everything else was the same price. Glad to see you compare something other than “junk” food.
Basic food necessitates far outweigh non-nutritional.
I’ll sit down and pull up Aldi and Walmart apps and start comparing the two. Sometimes Aldi has the better prices on what’s on my shopping list. Next time it could be Walmart. Actually these two stores are across the street from each other so it’s no inconvenience to shop both stores in one day.
Aldi had sugar $0.50 cheaper (4lb bag), canned corn beef (12oz)was also $.50 cheaper. I make my own hash by adding a couple of fresh potatoes and it still comes out cheaper than canned hash. Homemade is always better.
Thank you for the heads up on the reductions you found. Oh! In their bakery dept, French and Italian bread has gone down from $1.49 back to a $1.00 a loaf. Also, great value 2 liter bottles of soda have gone down from $1.48 to $1.00.
Enjoy your evening!
🫵 on to my next adventure.
Seasoning is definitely something to keep a good stock of. Even a simple house seasoning of 2 parts salt, 1 part black pepper, and 1 part garlic powder can take meat or veggies from bland to amazing. If you store it right, it lasts for years.
our kroger up north in butler county has strawberries 1.67/lb thru tues night
Hello Danno. I went to Walmart Supercenter yesterday (on a Friday) it was around 6:00-6:30pm. And the store was quite, wasn't alot of people there. I told the cashier, you guys are not busy for a Friday. She said yeah, it's suprising. This is Lewis Center, Ohio.
My dear Danno, Jess and your RUclips Comment family members, our Walmart at the Cortlandt Town Center here in Cortlandt Manor, NY is dirty and products out of place. Some shelves are empty. Prices have risen too. Admire you all. Star Trek Suzi
Our Walmart is absolutely filthy. The refrigerated unit's doors look like people have actually thrown up on them.🤢 They smell so bad. I have issues with the odor of the store. The meat cases smell like they have expired meat. I have turned it in constantly but nothing is done.
We drive over 200 miles to several small towns local grocery stores to get product. They're clean and I'm more at ease with purchasing.
I went to Walmart Grocery in Meadowbrook plaza. I was getting ready to go in and I noticed there were no shopping carts for the customers. Being as who I am I went outside and got about 8 shopping carts for the customers and stuck them inside the shopping cart room. This guy walked up to me started telling me not to do that . He wasn’t on the clock yet and I was making it hard on him. The customers didn’t have shopping carts but I was making it hard for him ? I said you’re welcome and I’ll talk to Walmart about that. I did go to customer service and told them how the employee acted but I don’t want anyone to lose their job but I did appreciate how he talked to me. Other words he could have said I appreciate the help but I rather you not do that. When I left Walmart there were no shopping carts and he closed the door to the shopping cart room.
We used to buy cranberry juice; V 8 we notice both have been water down now we do not buy either????
Have you ever done a video on Menards grocery section? I get all my can goods, jams, nuts, snacks, cheese, bacon there?
Makes me glad I got aldies . Walmart I've not shopped there for over 20 years😊
My favorite cheese is made at a local farm. Shop small, shop local, if you can. None of that 'cheese product' with all the crazy ingredients for me.
Getting?????? Prices Have Been Bloody Ridiculous For A Long Time...
Got boxes of assorted sugars by Domino at Dollar Tree
Small jars of Kraft mayo also can be found at Dollar Tree.
Danno you know I buy a lot of great value products never had to throw anything out. Steve from WV
What about fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, fresh tuna, meat from the butcher round the corner, fresh bread fron your local baker, etc. Do you eat anything but can food in the USA?
I usually do my grocery shopping at Aldi, even there too i noticed a lot of bare spaces on the shelves. Here you talked about 1# bags/boxes of pasta vs. 2# bags. They never have the cheaper products on display, forcing you to buy the pricier one. Not me. Walk away. I've noticed with Bushes baked beans almost like buying soup. So much water. 🙏❤😡
Good morning Danno andJess!
The beginning items were depressing just because of the indigestibility of those items, whereas the Keystone meat cans are the gold bricks of nutrition and @ ten dollars great. Bear in mind we’re fighting depression and good dietary items are vital.
Went to Walmart today and they are clearing out the picking spices, vinegar, salt, and odd and ends in the canning isle.
vinegar is a must. always have an extra gallon or two around ... never know what you might find to pickle. also a decent salad dressing [AC is exquisite]
THANK YOU for doing all that you do. I have question. Do you ever look at ingredients on the labels. I have a grandchild that can't have food dyes. I am looking for deals on everything from food to tooth paste that have no food dyes.
Thank you for showing the Gluten Free items next to Libbys canned goods. I needed to know those prices, its helps with planning :) Thank you so much!
I haven't bought Babybel cheese in a long time. I did buy a 3-pack of Laughing Cow 🐂 at Sam's ( on sale) a couple of months ago. One night, I wanted a bagel but didn't have any cream cheese! Light bulb 💡 moment --- I used some Laughing Cow🐂 and it was delicious! 😋
I was today at Walmart for my weekly grocery shopping, and I was shocked by looking at the prices. I am not sure if i will continue shopping there anymore. For years i go to Walmart to shop as my local grocery stores charge too much compared to Walmart. However, at this point there is no difference so no point for me going there anymore. Sad
Danno & Jess ❤Food Morning .Always Watch the Walmart Video Since It's a place I shop..Not much Choice😠3 close places on bus Rout by me. PNW.The Foothills of the Olympics 🏔️ WA Thanks! ❤🕊️ Lord's Blessings,All..Keep on Prepping ☘️😊
I can't believe what tomato juice costs! Used to approximately $1.99, now it's between close to $3..00 -$4.00! Sheesh!
Went to Sprouts today....$10.99 a lb for chicken salad in the deli......WTH?
2 years ago, Keystone meat was $4/can.
When reviewing canned beef, you panned over Butcher Board canned beef for 10.98/24 oz. Anyone compared?
When everyone wants 20$ an hour, those expenses are passed on if they want to stay in business
my sams club, all meat packaged where you cant see the products, and shrinkage is horrible on all items. glad i stocked up years ago
A lot of Walmarts haven't been carrying the Keystone canned meat products, lately. We have three Walmart locations here in the Prescott/Prescott Valley AZ area and none of them have had Keystone on the shelves for months now.
Danno..try melting a slice of kraft American cheese..it doesnt melt..it burns kinda like plastic..
Watch for tuna cans too some are 4oz not 5
the keyston can meet is the best the other stuff ok but buy if u can aford
