Hey everyone!
Everyone likes to watch these 'shop with me' videos, even though I kinda suck at them lol.
So enjoy while I get the actual grocery haul edited!
Enjoy!
The website still has A LOT to go on it, there is a lot of dead links and empty space and even some 'sample stuff' from the template I bought, but if you'd like to look at how a sample recipe will look, here's a link and feedback is always welcome :)

Hi Nyssa, another great video and I am blown away once again by everything you do. Do you know what a remarkable woman you are . I really admire your strength and energy and the way you take care of your
family . I am 70 years old now and in poor health but even when I was young and healthy I could not have kept up with you. You are really something else. Please take care of yourself and do not overdo it. ❤💙💛💚
Thank you! I definitely have a bit of a slow two day weekend post getting home, eating lots of stuff that's super easy (hot dogs for dinner last night and leftovers for lunch lol) and have a bit of a cat nap if needed of an afternoon! :D
I love watching the whole family unloading all the goodness. You and hubby do a amazing job.
Hehe, they do it under duress sometimes! But at the same time they get to see what comes home!
Personally I think its good to have a special day to celebrate each child separately ❤ then enjoy the other holidays as a family were everybody feels special 😊🥰
An absolutely well oiled machine is your family! You all pitch in together! Its lovely to see! One of your little ones wearing your hat looked cute!
Hehe, he was hamming it up for the camera too! :D
Trust me, a full keyboard with weighted keys, you won’t be disappointed. Merry Christmas and happy holidays. Thank you for all that you do
There's a lovely one on a stand at Costco atm that I took a photo of to see what the price compared like, a Roland. I will just see how far money stretches in these last few weeks leading up to Christmas! :D
❤ whenever you get time. Can you go to the butcher shop and do a video dedicated to the different types of meats they sell. I'm in America. Would love to learn more about the different cuts❤
I love seeing the kids helping with the unloading. You are raising them right❤.
Your so honest about life on your home front. You're so down to earth. The shopping is so much fun to see you . 😊And it's like an adventure we love your videos an awesome idea for others who do the same thing as your family does. Home schooling and homestead life. It's real not fake. Your family is growing up so fast. The girls are beautiful, and love your farming style green houses. They are looking really good this year. Good luck with your crops. Take care.
It’s always exciting when mum gets home with the groceries 😊
I love watching these videos. I love how everybody helps to unload at the end even the dog! 😀
I wonder if the butcher shop will get more business now that they’re famous!
Heh, they're definitely worth checking out if people are local to them! I'll try and remember to do the F&V again next trip too! :D
I love how the kids help! I know prices here in the usa have skyrocketed. I do alot of shopping at bent and dent stores. We get some produce from a produce market for low income. I dont know how you manage all that!! Kuddos to you being a smart shopper. Ive been butchering free deer and canning it
Hi Nyssa just wanted to say I hope the property isn’t badly damaged by the fire and that you guys are all safe. Sending love and keeping everything crossed for you xx
You and your family are such a blessing 🕊🤍
Thank you! :D
Must of been nice to get home and unpack while it was still light. Great job as always 😊
It is so much nicer when it is still daylight out, I hate night driving too, so being able to drive home in the afternoon is superb. Though we of course cop the heat with the extra sunlight hehe :D
An awesome job!! Love seeing the little bits of Christmas stuff!! You are the Tetris queen 👑!! Looks like the kids are going to be getting some yummy treats with that beautiful fruit!!
Wow an early video. I had to think what day it was. Sounds like most things are ticked of your list for the kids. Great that things were put away on lay by for next month. Making a Coles shop to your mums while your there - what a game changer. Had a giggle at the produce sampling by a few of the unpacking helpers. Couldn’t not see the growth in the kids. Yeah the cost of storage bins has definitely gone up. I did, hopefully, the last on line order for Xmas bits and pieces. I have a lot of papers to go through and shred or recycle. I am hoping I can gain a few bins from getting rid of papers rather than buy anymore. I have got some bins in the Reject shop not in the bin section but in the kitchen area. I use them to store medicines and bathroom items in them.
I've got to sit down and check my lists, but I think nearly everything is sorted for Christmas, just have to see what we go through in the first half of the month food wise that we might need, I always make seafood salad and I did forget the frozen 'seafood mix' so need to make sure to get that!
Lol, Those cherry tomatoes were half eaten before they even made it inside, and quite a few apples got eaten too! :D
I have been thinking about what I want for bathroom stuff etc, we put some shelves in the bathrooms and I want some bins for all the soap and toothpaste, deoderant etc! I only keep a few extra of each, but the kids always mess them up when I just have them lined up lol.
The lack of shade at all shops is frustrating. There use to be trees in car parks then they took nearly all of them away.... it's hot as balls in summer
I don't know how you do it, I am totally over it by the time I make it through just one store and here you are making it through multiple stores like a champ. I do love watching your 4/6 week hauls.
I just keep telling myself that its only once every 4/6 weeks hehe, get it all done in one go and then I don't have to do it again for ages!
Hello Nyssa
That was one hot job on a hot day. Unpacking the stores is a military operation soon completed 👍
Very busy video 😊
Great effort from all the kids unloading the groceries. It was nice to watch the team effort
a real family effort to unload, great to see all involved!
Thanks Nyssa for this video, it's so interesting to see you managing it all. It's also nice to see the whole family pitch in with the unloading when you get back. Your children are so fortunate to have you as their mum - Iove the way you are always thinking of nice things ( activities & meals ) that will make them happy.
Great video ❤
Hi Nyssa, I've been meaning to post this since your video when you spoke about the flies, giving you a hard time while cooking. I work at Bunnings, and a lot of customers have been raving about these. I thought of you straight away 😊
Brilliant Lighting Insect Repeller Fan - 2 Pack $15.
Thank you, I will have a looK!
Thanks for taking us along to the butchers!
I'm glad I remembered this time!
Love the team work unpacking the Ute 👏
Great time saver for you ...
Delivery or pick-up ordering.
I can see you doing this more in the future.
Then only grabing the extra things needed.
😊❤
I sometimes find doing online shops almost as time consuming as going in! But it is handier now that they have longer slots and more slots for delivery! I was able to order at midday for delivery at 7am the next day, that was pretty handy!
How funny is he walking around with the backpack and hat and bow 😂 that’s how my kids help unload the groceries too 😆😆😆
The kiddos are growing up so fast. Hoping all of you are safe.
thanks Nyssa, amazing as always. Love how you look at life. thank you xox
I’m sure your glad it’s over shopping is so much more work when it’s hot! Can’t wait to see the haul!
Thank you for taking time out of your very busy life to film this!! From the USA
What a great family, all were helping!
It was very interesting to see the meat shop. I have never seen anything like that anywhere! So interesting.
You definitely deserve a rest day when you get home. That’s a lot of work especially since it’s hot there. Cool temps here and next week is our Thanksgiving here in the US so we travel 2 hours to family Thursday and Friday. Have a wonderful weekend. 😊
No wonder you are exhausted, so much packing, love the hauls
It's a definite tetris heh :)
Wow! You got a lot of good stuff!! Meat store is huge!! And that fruit looked delicious!! Now I’m hungry!! lol
You’ve had a great shopping trip…looks good..nice display at the butcher 👍… and a great fresh haul..looking forward to what you do with it….🙌
Lots of great fruit avail at this time of year, and lots of requests of things to be done with it :D
Love your family helping you out , good examples
They're pretty good about it too, partly because they get all the special stuff each shop hehe.
I can't believe how much the kids have grown up.
Each unpacking of Ute shows the kids gradual growth.
Kids are a great help for you .
Great to see all pitching in together and having fun.😊
@@libbywilson3064 Whilst I only film what they're happy to participate in and knowing that it is being filmed I do love having the records, I have plenty of personal stuff on my phone too, but these little snippets, like how the gardens growing, just make me notice heh :D
What a full on trip, I don’t know how you do it! Plus those handmade togs/leotards look fantastic! If you ever get the thought to sell some I would definitely be interested 😊
It must be exhausting putting all the shopping into your vehicle alone, hope you are well xxx
Another great video! Thanks Nyssa!
What a big journey. It mush be wonderful to be home with all that help to unload and put away. A big job well done.
Ha ha, I thought I might get help today. Didn’t happen, so I bought it all, carried it in & put it away! Poor me!😊 Now I get to cook it too!
It's always nice when they all come out and help (though I had to ask for shirts to be put on and Kavik still didn't I realised once watching the footage lol)!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a fully stocked butcher!
They have some great product, they have some really good deals too, unfortunately most aren't on the day I'm there lol, but I still normally snag something at a decent price, I'm going to try and budget in steak for next month! :D
A Lego snow globe? Who knew? I need to look for one of those! I about fell over when you mentioned the price of the plastic containers! I had no idea they were so expensive.
What a lot of work and such great helpers! Your description of your Christmas plans, and what you hope to do, sounds wonderful!
I'm sure I used to get like a set of 4 for $12 at Kmart :S. Sad they don't sell them anymore :(. It was generic branded lego, from Kmart, but I still think it will be neat :D
@@OurSmallFootprint Even an off brand would be cool! My son-in-law is a huge lego fan. (He has quite a few of the large, fancy kits, with moving parts.) I think he might enjoy something like this. It’s hard to buy for people who buy themselves whatever they want.
Hi Nyssa, just an idea that might help you with the heat in the car with the vegetables etc. You can buy picnic blankets that are insulated and also rolls of soft aluminium to cover your groceries. Not too expensive too! Online and also bunnings and others. Enjoy your time out. Roxane
I think the reflector panels I used helped! Mum runs air con till we get to costco, then we cover them until we come back out, most of it ends up in the esky's or on the back of the ute for my part of the drive lol..
Wow. What a great team ❤❤
Love these videos Thanks Nyssa
You work so hard, enjoy all your shopping and goodies for the children. Diana NZ
The kids have already gone through everything lol, They keep on asking to do clay and stuff and I'm having to ride them to get the dishes done and the table cleared first! :D
Hey Nyssa, That trip looks like fun! but when I look at those full carts I get anxiety lol! I hate spending money on groceries with our economy the way it is but, that's life. It's insane what a package of paper towels cost. TFS!!❤
Wow that butcher’s is huge & the meat looks to be great quality!
Always enjoy shopping with you….I don’t like shopping 😂
No wonder you only do this every 6 weeks usually.. thank you for sharing :)
Hehe, yes! it is so worth it to only do it every 6 weeks! :D
Hi I didn’t realise you were going shopping. I saw that a lot celebs from the uk were spotted at Brisbane airport preparing for the jungle or I’m a celeb … get me out of here!!! I have out of it as I have 2 ear infections from the font at Salisbury cathedral, uk for the last 2 weeks and it’s not clearing.
Hi Nyssa, in that heat and humidity it makes the shopping more tiresome for yoy. What a family affair unloading the Yute when you got home. I had to chuckle when you said you don’t like sewing elastic. I hear you. Not fun!
Aldi's have swimmers for kids on sale 25th this month...and blow up Kayak $149...for 2....
That looks like hard work...😂😂😂
Oooh, I'll check out any leftovers when I shop next month, having a couple of pairs in rotation is always good!
That was exhausting to do in that humidity 🥵 Nyssa girl well done ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉As always a pleasure to watch 💖 Love from the UK x
It was so sticky this trip, urgh!
Did you get around to tribe of Judah or lighthouse? Still highly recommend for cheap snack options for the kids
I ran really short on time this month! I might take another day next month to try and make sure I have time!
@@OurSmallFootprint 100% worth a look when you get a chance, understandable tho when you have to get home ❤️
hi nyssa & family, new viewer here, where do you store all the fruit & veg so critters dont get into it
In the boxes that they come in generally speaking! as much in the fridge that will work being refrigerated, the rest in boxes at a height, we only really have issues with the bush rats which are native possum type critters and they tend to not chew into things, so like not chew through a cardboard/plastic box to get to the inside, they just take advantage of fruit/veg that is left avail to them! :D
@@OurSmallFootprint thank you for answering my question, only an Aussie would know what "togs" are,
I was wondering what a rashie was please?
A swim shirt, upf50 sun protection fabric, tshirt for swimming in :).
Ah, not much need for them here. Wet suit for sea swimming here!! Thank you.
@@kimmcvitty3580 heh, yeah, just sun protection for the pool, they even wear them in the yard sometimes in summer, nice and light weight and breathable.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I have to ask....is the rashie fabric Boo?
Yes it is! :D
Wow I’ve never seen that much meat in one place.
Its a really great butcher, and the prices are very competitive!
Is it just me or is this video on fast forward? I can’t understand any of it cause the whole thing is playing in fast forward
Nope, that's just my speed of talking unless something is tweaked on your end :D. Only thing sped up is the unloading at the end :)
Hello I have a question? Mayb stupid or not but u call ur truck a Ute. Is it because it's a utility truck for work or just the name is a Ute. Because where we r from it's just a pickup truck . Heeheehee 😂
An wow what a haul. Ur making Evryone want a nice cool shower an a nap... 😂❤
I think its an Australian thing!, a cab with a tray is called a Ute here, I assume because its a utility vehicle hehe :D. We don't really refer to anything as a pickup, a truck is a large vehicle that normally requires additional licencing to drive :)
Ute in NZ too. Pickup is just American as far as I know .
