The milk lasts longer because its ultra pasteurized. As a household of two I only buy ultra pasteurized milk, regular milk would always spoil before I could use it all. It does cost more than regular milk though, but not when you consider having to buy more because the older milk spoiled.
Regular milk can be removed from the plastic container before the best before date and put into clean glass jars and put into the back of the fridge and you'll get an extra 3 weeks of deliciousness minimum! I have been doing this for years. If it happens to spoil, this makes the best biscuits, sour milk gingerbread, chocolate cake....etc
I just freeze it when I buy it and defrost it as we need it. But I don't live in the USA, so maybe our milk processing is different 🤷. We also don't have such big containers. Everything is in a 1 litre container.
@@cookshackcuisinista like I said I think that the pasteurisation methods might be different, we don't buy any long life milk because we find that the taste is different.
She is the BEST person for inspiration. I remember her saying that when they were paying off debts, they ate oatmeal for breakfast for MONTHS. They had amazing Will power 😂
My favourite line was when you said ‘I don’t need milk, but for this price, I needed milk’. It’s such a great concept to stock up when it’s on sale, so when you need it, it’s not full price. Feeling the price hikes in NZ. Summer veggies were double the price, frozen blueberries have gone up a third......
Hi Christine! The milk last so long due to the temperature it's pasteurized at. Then the carton containers don't let light in so the quality of the isn't compromised as fast. I'm full of useless knowledge like this. I'm a weird fact junkie. 😂
I appreciate your continued commitment to helping us plan, shop and cook well on a budget, Christine. Here in the UK food costs are also rising. Petrol is an average of the equivalent of $2.30 a litre (that's 0.21 gallons).
This video was nice. I’ve learned that with inflation going on, I need to organize my food a LOT and be very mindful of prices and how many ways can I use One meat source. I recently printed out a “freezer inventory list” and it helps a lot! I love It! With 2 chest freezers in the basement, it’s easy for items to fall to the bottom and get lost! I just Hang up the list on the freezer and check off as we go. I also now think about : ex- I bought A pack of chicken breasts. I can make chicken Alfredo, chicken noodle soup, casseroles, chicken stir fry, chicken enchiladas( insert Forest Gump scene 😆). But seriously, that’s what I do And it helps!
I typically never comment on videos, but I just wanted to say I love your monthly food haul videos with the running budget! I highly anticipate them coming out each month! Thanks so much!
My Kroger stopped discounting the salad kits and other prepared produce items on the day I usually go grocery shopping and it has made be very sad. I need to figure out which day they are doing it on now. Gah! But, to cheer me up, I scored big time in the shelf-stable clearance section at my Kroger. They had multiple carts filled with discounted Chunky Campbell's soups. Say what?! Normal price for each can is usually around $3 - - - I paid only 90 cents for each can!!! WHAT?! Let's just say - I stocked up! Thank you for being my inspiration for hunting down those clearance items! :)
Watching to reinspire myself. my grocery budget has gotten out of hand a bit since having my baby 4 months ago and having him hospitalized for rsv+pneumonia at 2 months. Feels like I've been dragging with grocery shopping. Anyone else? Still meal planning but know I need to get better with the budget again
Dont know if someone answered, but the cartons of milk have a longer expiration date because they are Ultra-Pastrurized, which means its just at a higher temp, also its not exposed to light, which can affect the quality of milk. Work for a dairy company, as a lab tech, thats how I know.
You are so lucky to have a grocery store that has a reduced price section. We have a very small area (maybe 2ft by 2 ft) in the butcher section for reduced meats.. and that's it. Most of the time, the reduced price meats are pork, which unfortunately my family cant eat.
I love, love, love your videos!! I have been bingeing Frugal Fit videos (yours and Dave’s) all weekend. ❤️ I found two bread outlets near my house thanks to your channel. Sadly, there are no Kroger’s or affiliate stores near me. Jarlsberg is pronounced Yarlsberg. 🧀 😊
A great way to make your pizza and it's cheaper (where electricity is concerned) not to mention the heat in summer is the Presto Pizzazz - Pizza Oven. I've had one for years and love it. Will not use the oven again. it's also great for fish, fries Etc...
I'm laughing at how Tyler reached in the cheese bag and then just like dropped it on the pizza in the background. I have no idea why, but it was so funny to me for some reason.
I know these videos take a whole month to make but I LOVE seeing your deals and how your brain works seeing odds and ends to make delicious meals for your family! Please keep them coming!
We call that type of milk long life milk here in the uk. It's just heated to super high temperature and makes it last months. It's not just an organic thing its just UHT milk can be done with any milk.
I used to agree about green grapes being the best but lately I don’t like the green and only like the red grapes . I whole hearty agree from a previous video about Costco having great produce (most of the time) especially their grapes 🤤
Since styrofoam is not recyclable you can ship them back to Egglands Best. You can't do that with most styrofoam egg cartons and they just go to the landfill.
When I was growing up in the 50s and 60s we could only buy green grapes. When red seedless grapes came out we made the switch and haven't looked back. Last summer I needed grapes for a fruit salad and was forced to buy green ones as the red ones were sold out. Yep! Still a big fan of the red ones.
I always buy organic milk and it really does last 2 months. Really! I no longer have throw milk out. The price on that Bison was terrific. I work 12hr. Day Shifts so never get those deals you get on clearance. Great haul for that price. You did 👍.
Organic milk costs more to produce, so in order to prevent stores from throwing out expired milk every week, organic milk is typically UHT pasteurized (ultra high temperature).
You make it look so easy all time. My teen kids are picky and so is my husband. I love watching you cook but my family would not eat most of these meals. No beans or broccoli. No cooked carrots or cauliflower. No salads. No peas or lentils. Limited on italian foods. I would eat almost anything. I see so many great meals you cook that my kids would just make a sandwich instead of eating. So so hard!
I love your videos! It's interesting to see how you can budget for a big family. I also come from a big family, when I was living with my mom, there was 10 of us there! This includes me and my 5 siblings, my daughter, stepdad, mom, and sisters bf. Now I just buy groceries for myself and my 3 year old. I can see I need to do better in shopping to bring down the cost. Usually my budget is $350 but I've been spending close to $500
While you were going thru these hauls I was checking the prices for the same exact things at my Walmart in Mesa Arizona. The original Johnsonville brats you got for $2.99 were were $5.24 at my store. Everything you bought was WAY cheaper than here in Arizona. Good for you!!! I wish the prices were that good here too...
Pretty much everything she got was a clearance price though. I'm sure the regular price of the brats are closer to $5 and the regular prices of everything else are significantly more as well.
The milk last that long do to the packaging and being filled with nitrogen but once you open it only last for 7 days. Look at the small print on the side of the package
Christine, I love your videos! You always have great recipes, tips etc. I’ve got a funny story. I was watching one of your videos & you said “Alex shuffle songs by Charlotte “… can’t remember the last name. Anyway, I was in our bedroom resting & the door to our master bathroom was open & we have an echo dot in there. Next thing I know it’s playing songs by Charlotte … I was so surprised & it was pretty funny. I thought you might get a laugh about it!!
I have a video request! A video where you get a rotisserie chicken from Costco and show us all the ways you’d use it in different recipes! I feel like I always make either pot pie or chicken noodle soup with the left overs and I need some new ideas!
i cant get over how cheep meat is in America!! chicken $1.99/pound = $5.30 AUD/kg and its $16-$18/kg here. doing all the conversion calculations our chicken is 3x the price of the US. Ground beef 2x price,
I am using as many clearance items as I can. Making use of scraps for more meals. 🤤 I used leftover sauteed cabbage and green onion, with a couple tablespoons of spaghetti sauce and cheese to make a personal pizza for lunch.
Love these videos Christine! I need to do a video like this soon. I just did a pantry cooking video series and it was so fun! I was able to make so many dinners from things I had on hand. It helped me save so much money this month!
Thanks to your videos I recently figured out that the Entenmann's bakery outlet near my house also carries the bread I've been buying for 3.99/loaf (up from 3.79) at a price of 3 for 4.00!! Do you do any weekly shopping for things like fresh produce or things you may run out of?
Would love to see you rewatch a food haul video and say what you wouldn’t purchase again if it was something new or should of bought more. Like a review of what got used up and what ye struggled to eat etc
Wow!!! You really stocked up! I guess I've been slacking on frugal shopping! I'm going to keep watching your videos to learn more about saving $ & feeding my family we!!! Thanks for sharing!
That milk is like fairlife, it’s ultra pasteurized so it has a longer best by date. Also all milk is good for at least 2 weeks after it’s best by date 🥳
I 1,000,000,000% agree with you. Everything in Costco is about $20. It’s all extremely useful things! And you need it and want it all. And one time I went to Costco with an empty credit card and spent almost $700. And never did that again because it took a long time to pay that credit card off.
I think if some people aren't used to budgeting for food and buying on clearance, they may not realize how easy it is. It just takes a bit of planning. If you set aside a bit of your grocery budget, you can buy that sale chicken and clearance naan. You may have to freeze it since it's close to expiration sometimes, so you can get to it eventually. But, buy it when you can.
The Kroger "specials/clearance " is the best! A few months ago l got those ground beef tubes were 1.00 a pound...amazing! I live really close to Kroger.
That milk lasts so long because it's ultrapasturized, not because it's organic. We love buying the ultrapasturized on sale/with coupons because it will last well past the expiration date in the back of the fridge and for some reason we go through milk in spurts.
We traditionally don't but hamburger in the chubs, usually they are 70/30...but check out the freezer section in Costco, we get 5, 1 lb chubs at 91/9 for around $22! It has gone up around 2 dollars or so in the past year but at around $4.5lb for 91/9 still can't beat...plus it's already frozen
Yahoo!! A Grocery Haul!! Love watching your deals you got, but also love how you own it's hard to walk away from what truly is a deal! I feel you! Thank you for your videos!! Also, we have Naan pizzas ONLY after you turned us to them!! Best ever!!😋😋💕
I learned about the organic milk from Jen Chapin’s channel. It’s double pasteurized! I’m going to start buying it because of the expiration dates. Sometimes I’ll go through a half gallon in 2 days & other times it takes a month or more.
LOVE catching the ground bison on clearance. Better for you than ground turkey yet as close to ground beef in taste as you’re gonna get. Don’t just use it for chili!! My family loves bison burgers and I’ve done a shepherds pie variation with ground bison and mashed sweet potatoes.
I miss living in a Kroger city! Publix has some good sales and markdowns from time to time, and I've got a big discount store though. Still miss Kroger though!
You've been such a help when it comes to affordable grocery shopping, but I'm always blown away by just how cheap the food you buy is to start. If you are looking for more grocery challenge ideas, consider shopping/cooking/eating kosher for a month. You'd be shocked by the cost (since it's nearly impossible to find sales, and when you do, you don't save very much at all).
You have transformed how I look at grocery shopping, mom life, and fitness goals. Always looking forward to your videos
Thank you!
Agreed!!
Totally agree!

Never heard the part about carton vs plastic. Very interesting
My Aunt & Uncle had an egg farm and eggs are graded by weight not size. The heavier the yolk, the larger size it's given.
I appreciate your continued commitment to helping us plan, shop and cook well on a budget, Christine. Here in the UK food costs are also rising. Petrol is an average of the equivalent of $2.30 a litre (that's 0.21 gallons).
Thank you for the metric conversion on how much a liter is! I've been living in Ghana for the past month and seen the price of gas rise
I love when I come home from Kroger with all marked down foods! Honestly they taste better at reduced prices! Good job with your marked down hauls!
I totally agree!
Loved Tyler throwing the cheese on the pizza. I literally laughed too loudly over it. @13:30

It's sad when I'm jealous that you found a dozen eggs on clearance for $1.15.
Omg that’s my issue! Everyone jokes about how you go to target and target tells you what you need. But it’s Costco for me 😂
Those are the two people always have trouble with lol

I love watching your grocery hauls! I too have a weakness for clearance items and it is great that you show how you used them throughout the week.
Watching these videos have helped me with spending my money for groceries. Just wished I had the money and room for a small deep freezers.
I bake so I have flour, sugar, baking soda, oat meal, I have my baking stuff on hand all year around.
The milk lasts longer because it is ultra-pasteurized. Means they cook it longer.
Organic milk is ultra-pasteurized that’s why it has a much longer use by date. Just FYI!

The milk is ultra pasteurised milk. Like UHT it heated at high temperatures sp is shelf stable :)
Organic milk costs more to produce, so in order to prevent stores from throwing out expired milk every week, organic milk is typically UHT pasteurized (ultra high temperature).
Thanks for sharing! Organic milk lasts longer because of the way it’s processed. It’s processed at ultra high temperatures which kills all bacteria.
It’s whole milk ,2%and down has sugar in it causes it to spoil faster

You always find the best deals! Wish our store had those kinds of deals.
When I hear clearance grocery haul.
Me to me: There better be some clearance naan or else 👊🏼 😂
Edit: 1:27 in and I was not disappointed :D
When I go into Costco for one thing I don't take a cart. I just lug it. Makes it much harder to impulse.
The milk last that long do to the packaging and being filled with nitrogen but once you open it only last for 7 days. Look at the small print on the side of the package
You get more clearance deals that anyone I know. Soooo jealous! 😄

i cant get over how cheep meat is in America!! chicken $1.99/pound = $5.30 AUD/kg and its $16-$18/kg here. doing all the conversion calculations our chicken is 3x the price of the US. Ground beef 2x price,
eggs 3x price too
I'm always so shocked by how much cheaper food is in the states, in Canada everything is almost double the price!
Yes! So depressing how much more we pay for groceries in Canada 😒
Fellow Canadian however im in Cali. Not every state is cheap. Cali is sooo expensive😭
Ultra pasteurized milk lasts a lot longer, the organic part has nothing to do with it.

I just found out about the Entenmann’s outlet near me too! I love their stuff!
These hauls always make me wish I had a Kroger in my area!
The inflation is to true.. It's getting way to ridiculous in Ontario. Starting to heavily look on flipp to see weekly deals and budget from there.
We buy organic milk because it’s ultra pasteurized so it lasts longer which is awesome
Would love to see you rewatch a food haul video and say what you wouldn’t purchase again if it was something new or should of bought more. Like a review of what got used up and what ye struggled to eat etc
I wish I could find that many clearance items. Our store in our little town does not reduce like that unless it's a by today use today product.

We are feeling the rising foods costs here in Canada as well.
I have extended family who hunt and have a hunt camp. They do moose chili (and it super yummy) so bison chili was my first thought too! Heather xo
Green grapes are the BEST!🤷🏽♀️😁 👍🏽
That milk is like fairlife, it’s ultra pasteurized so it has a longer best by date. Also all milk is good for at least 2 weeks after it’s best by date 🥳
Especially if unopened. I always sniff check anyway
The red grapes are better plus better for you because they are higher in antioxidants
Organic milk is usually ultra high temperature pasteurized. IE it’ll last a very long time
I 1,000,000,000% agree with you. Everything in Costco is about $20. It’s all extremely useful things! And you need it and want it all. And one time I went to Costco with an empty credit card and spent almost $700. And never did that again because it took a long time to pay that credit card off.

The Kroger "specials/clearance " is the best! A few months ago l got those ground beef tubes were 1.00 a pound...amazing! I live really close to Kroger.
It's a good flour for battering things like fish!
So frustrating... Those prices don't exist in southern California!

I just bought chicken tenderloins at my Walmart in NM $3.54 a pound paid almost $8 for a little under 2 pounds so you got a great deal there
I have to admit I was surprised on March 25th when Christine said she needed milk. Did I imagine the 2 earlier big milk hauls?
I love Sam’s Club curbside pick up because it reduces my impulse buys. But I can’t pick up rotisserie chickens that way which sucks
13:30 how the kid dumped the cheese 🤣
We traditionally don't but hamburger in the chubs, usually they are 70/30...but check out the freezer section in Costco, we get 5, 1 lb chubs at 91/9 for around $22! It has gone up around 2 dollars or so in the past year but at around $4.5lb for 91/9 still can't beat...plus it's already frozen
Yahoo!! A Grocery Haul!! Love watching your deals you got, but also love how you own it's hard to walk away from what truly is a deal! I feel you! Thank you for your videos!! Also, we have Naan pizzas ONLY after you turned us to them!! Best ever!!😋😋💕
I learned about the organic milk from Jen Chapin’s channel. It’s double pasteurized! I’m going to start buying it because of the expiration dates. Sometimes I’ll go through a half gallon in 2 days & other times it takes a month or more.
I’m loving these videos! Not sure how I missed this the other day. Thanks for sharing with us, Christine!
We do not have those deals here. I am always looking.🤦🤦♀
LOVE catching the ground bison on clearance. Better for you than ground turkey yet as close to ground beef in taste as you’re gonna get. Don’t just use it for chili!! My family loves bison burgers and I’ve done a shepherds pie variation with ground bison and mashed sweet potatoes.

I absolutely love your naan bread pizza hack, mu kids love them aswell.. its such an easy dinner, thanks Christine 😊
You are so welcome!
What are you doing for lunch?
Me: Gonna watch some Christine 😆
The look you got for the chili joke 😂😂😂
Omgosh- March 25th- More milk? 😘

I enjoy all of your content but the grocery hauls are my favorite. 😃
Mine too!
You've been such a help when it comes to affordable grocery shopping, but I'm always blown away by just how cheap the food you buy is to start. If you are looking for more grocery challenge ideas, consider shopping/cooking/eating kosher for a month. You'd be shocked by the cost (since it's nearly impossible to find sales, and when you do, you don't save very much at all).
