Tip: Double check the math if something looks off Sometimes the price per ounce/item listed is incorrect I have noticed this especially with Walmart online shopping Comment from : Dee Cee |

Wow, what a great video! Your content is always so helpful and informative but this one has to be near the top My comment would be "know yourself" Although I'm quite advanced in terms of knowing how to budget grocery shop, I had to learn and accept that I'm not disciplined enough to have a "grocery circuit" and go from store to store buying the loss leaders I kept seeing other deals and temptations at each of the three stores I used So I decided to choose one store that had the best loss leaders that week and pay the extra for what the other 2 stores had on offer The result was spending a lot less My average spend per month is $140 for one person This is for food I have separate budget lines for toiletries, household, pet -- and junk food (so i can keep myself accountable) Thanks Mindy Keep up the great work! ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 Comment from : Paula Costello |

I like your approach about your takes I Like diferent camara takes, beside the tips I am new at budgeting and the shoping the pantry is somenthing i still strougle I had done, but for small portions Staring to learn some couponing, it is very tempting to buy the sales instead of needs I am glad for the budget to stop me to buy more!!! So, working progress here Tha k you for sharing this knowledge God bless you! Comment from : El jardin de Marlin y mas |

Online grocery shopping saves me time, a lot of money and it also makes sure that I have everything that I need to cook for the week I don’t exactly have a meal plan but I know that I have plenty of things to cook for my family Comment from : Sharon Wilson |

Use up leftovers If you are throwing away food, save the work and just throw the money it costs in the garbage ( something to think about that throwing out food costs money) Portion sizes, no one needs to eat until they are stuffed Better for your health, your looks and outlook on life Comment from : Dora Wedlock |

Great tips 😁❤ Comment from : April in Alabama |

Mmm Yass on the credit cards I keep a ledger and allocate purchases per certain categories and in pay every week or two weeks If I could figure out a way to pay the mortgage with the cc for cash back I would !😂 Comment from : Leslie B |

I love watching your videos! And I love your shirt I love flowers and the color blue Comment from : Tiffany Ledford |
|
Mindy, will you be doing any more vlogs on your see Mindy vlog channel? Comment from : Bonnie Kent |
|
Thank you SO much for your videos!! They’ve changed my life! Another tip I (try to!!) use is to plan meals with similar ingredients for the week For instance, if I buy bag of carrots I can use it for beef stew and chicken pot pie so they don’t end up rotting in the fridge!! Comment from : Vanessa Mathews |

I love the gadget you have for the yogurt! Comment from : Cyndi Moss |

Although these are all great tips, I recommend setting a goal of having at least 30 days of food put up in your pantry/freezer A stocked long term pantry is the best insurance money can buy Even if you just start with buying four extra items a week to put away We are living in strange, uncertain times The prices of everything are going up, job losses are going up In the unfortunate situation where an adult in the household loses a job, has to go out on leave for a surgery, has an accident, at least you will know you've got food and can feed your family for the foreseeable future 3-6 months worth is even better As I said, an extra $10 a week can slowly get you there Grab an extra bag of rice, a few cans of beans, tuna, pasta, soups, ramen if you find meat or butter on sale grab an extra for your freezer I do not recommend letting your cupboards get bare if you can help it, not with the way everything in the world has been lately I do understand people are struggling financially But you can still find cheap canned goods that are good for long term storage Ten dollars a week to start Comment from : TD0921 |

I use warehouse clubs to stock up on paper goods etc Tissues (both kinds), paper towels and napkins, trash bags I get very little from them, and I've found the bakery doesn't know what is even in their products I wanted cupcakes for lactose intolerant family member and I asked if they were lactose free, she said no, but I know those are, and pointed to others I picked it up and read the ingredients and she was wrong, they did indeed contain dairy I put them down and it's a good thing they got busy so I didn't have a conversation with her Comment from : R MS |

Awesome! Comment from : Victoria Llaguno |
|
The only way I can manage my Costco membership, is this; I go on my lunch break, which is only 30 minutes, and I don’t get a shopping cart That allows me to get those bulk items that we use, dryer sheets, toilet paper, my husband’s lunch beverage of choice, but does not give me room for things that I don’t need I have to be very strategic in what I’m getting, and if I can’t carry it, I just can’t carry it 😊😊😊 Comment from : Stacey McKinsey |
|
Where did you get your meal planning sheets at? Comment from : Ann Gibson |
|
Is there a website or app where we can put in the items we already have at home and it suggests recipes? Comment from : L F |

-brbGreat/b reminder for me to Pantry Shop Thank you!brbrI found couponing difficult when the "big name brands" are not on the shopping list whether due to needs, values, or preferences brbrI like shopping groceries online because I can compare prices between 4+ stores quickly between tabs; yes, it helps with impulse buying haha; coupons may be highlighted; and I can opt for Free Grocery PickupbrbrI live rurally in a high-cost area with dietary restrictions and we love your videos, meal ideas, and money-saving tips! :) Comment from : Geographologist |
|
I've been weekly meal planning, with an advance "theme" for certain daysie Meatball Monday, Taco Tuesday, Chicken Thursday has helped a TON with my budget, things don't go bad, and it seems to help my family because they know what to expect I put little menu cards on the fridge so everyone can see what is for dinner, and it also helps me remember to get meat out of the freezer! Lol Comment from : Karina Kissell |
|
I just do not care for most store brand items I’ve tried from Aldi I can deal with improving the taste, but there’s something lacking in either quality or consistency Comment from : DonnaJae |
|
Great tips Mindy! Comment from : Red Dogs Mom |
|
I use my Sam’s club membership for certain items like my husbands Keurig cups They are way less than at Walmart And I buy toilet paper and paper towels there All can be shipped to my house 😊 Comment from : Leslie Taylor |
|
👍👍👍👍👍👍 Comment from : Kallisto Indrani |
|
ABSOLUTELY YES! on the wholesale clubs!! 💯 💯💯brWe typically only use Sam's for gas and household items (garbage bags, toilet paper) but the other day I drove away thinking, "Why did you just spend $18 on Nature Valley bars?! We really don't need 49 Nature Valley bars You know how much food you can buy with $18 at Aldi!" Comment from : LeeAndra Josephson |

☝🏼 proud grocery shopping nerd 😅 Comment from : Jen Chapin |

I am a big digital coupon user in addition to rebate apps I also love my salvage grocery stores! Comment from : Jennifer Rosenthal |
|
I get the using generic on some things But the quality of so many things have gone done in the past few years I recently purchased a generic store brand vegetable and there were stalks in the can along with the vegetables That I don't like I just stick to purchasing the name brand better quality product when it is on sale Comment from : Josefa Ibarra |
|
Bargain grocery shopping is my jam!!brDon't skip $ 🎄brWhen you spoke about unit pricing,an example of that is ground ☕ coffeebrAt the $ tree I found Harry& David brand for 125 for 4 ounces which is $500 a pound!!brThat is a great price for coffee Comment from : mary hammond |

I’ve gotten a lot better with using what I have that’s helped so much but I’ve also made a budget before didn’t have one Comment from : jennifer haire |

I love these tips, although several don't work for me because I have mobility issues Since prices have risen greatly, I have been trying to meal plan and shop my pantry more My adult children are shocked because they have never seen my pantry and freezer so empty lol Now that I am on a fixed income, I try not to shop too often and shop online It has stopped my impulse buying It is only me, so luckily I often cook and eat leftovers for a day or two I appreciate all your budget saving ideas and love your meal ideas Thank you! Comment from : Laurie v |

Great Tips Mindy I have used lists forever or I'd be kicking myself for those important items forgotten 😡 My local store has digital in store Coupons offering their best deals I compare store prices, sizes and quality When I'm there I stock up on those things that keep well Freezer/shelf items Yes, so true about trying the brand names We are determined to WIN 💪🏆 Comment from : Judy Mcpheron |

Mindy, I have to tell you that my 8 year old, Noah, loves your videos He wants to watch them all with me and gets mad at me when I try to watch them on my own Thank you for your content and for providing my son and I something to do together 😊 brbrOn a side note, we only live about an hour and a half from Tulsa and when he found out you live near his grandma and grandpa he decided he wants to visit you I told him it doesn't exactly work that way but it was pretty sweet Comment from : Callie Hagood |
|
I have found doing a grocery pick up actually saves me money I can see how much I’ll be spending and I don’t get those impulse items I have little self control so when I go in the store I always end up buying stuff I don’t really need And if I do go in store I try very hard not to take my kids I always spend more when I take my kids with me Comment from : Christie Godfrey |
|
I spent almost $400 at Walmart on basics since I moved into my 1st apartment, I went to Winco and spent $100 Comment from : Kaylee Love |
|
Excellent video… Comment from : Shelz P |
|
I get that My chickens keep coming up to our patio and munching on the seeds and fresh germinations Luckily I got the pots and planters up on a shelf a few days ago Or I'd be up a creek on these yummy veggies Now we only let them free range late in the evening for an hour or sobr It has taken me awhile to learn to garden But it is getting better Hope yours do well Just be careful about getting chickens I think a few are going to be dinner if I keep catching them eating my goods, grrr! Comment from : Kathy K |
|
My anti tip is that I don't stock up on sale items When I have a lot of inventory, there's always the chance I'll forget and it'll go to waste Realistically, there's a cycle and something is always going on sale I buy what's on sale as it comes up This saves me space in my kitchen and saves me time digging through stock Comment from : Candace McGuire |
|
I can thank the algorithm for putting your video in my suggestions list I am one of the disciplined ones, and have my credit card set to automatically pay the balance every month We save by not buying many prepared or packaged foods Comment from : Candace McGuire |
|
I order online from my local Grocery store , they also load offers and offer Great lost leaders once a month that I take advantage of ,I find it helps me stop impulse buying ,plus saves me a tonne of time looking for parking ,getting cart and on and on ,,,feel spoiled sometimes ,,but all good ,,these are Great tips ,, paying cash is also I Good way to see the actual value as well,,,😊 Comment from : Cathy B |
|
I love your glasses frames color! Comment from : Denise |
|
I build a certain amount of impulse buying into my shopping, just a tiny bit I find it allows for good sale items I may have missed in the planning stagebrI've told my husband to call me at work if he needs something for dinner etc I don't mind stopping on my way home, but I'm not getting chased out once I'm home and comfy Comment from : R MS |
|
The wholesale club one 👀 we're about to get a kayak from Sam's Club 😬 I do love kayaking and we're in Florida, so it's not too wild, but they do get ya with the odds and ends Comment from : kay bee |
|
Sunday paper coupons is a waste at the price of the paper and coupons I'll never use Grocery stores in my area deliver coupons via USPS or are on the store app Comment from : Debbie Wolf |
|
Went to sams today spent $179 Got 4 protein shakes, vitamins, capri sun, chips, kids shorts and a sweater The majority of $ spent was on hubby his stuff was $137 alone But the shakes will last 6 weeks Comment from : abby no |
|
Thank you for this video!! I had a lot of onions and potatoes that I’ve had going bad in my pantry After seeing this video, I chopped up all my onions to go into the freezer and made mashed potatoes from the soft potatoes vs trashing all of it We are empty nesters now, so buying for my family of two is way different than my family of 6!! Comment from : Angela Hayman |
|
I do online grocery shopping all the time and I know current prices so I know what is a good deal and what isn't I online shop for groceries at Walmart and another large chain grocery store and Amazon I couldn't get my vitamin d drops from my local health food store recently and they were not going to have them in stock for at least 3 weeks or moreI found them on Amazon for the same price as I pay at the health food store I think if u are smart, online grocery shopping is fantastic I haven't stepped foot in Walmart since Covid started and I honestly don't miss it Comment from : Kim Thomson |
|
This was great! Thank you! Can you do more videos on sale cycles? Comment from : Anne Buyze-Smith |
|
Great video! As I mentioned before I will always be loyal to Pace, can't help it loved it forever I did change my loyalty to Barilla pasta Bought an Aldi's marinara to try but I really love Newman's but the price is high I'm also checking the price per ounce thing Comment from : mirthfulllaugh |
|
Use the greens in smoothies Comment from : Mary |
|
Mindy it looked like your yogurt cups in fridge were glued to inside of fridge? How did you do that please? 😎 Comment from : Jen MV |
|
I found the wholesale clubs were a waste of money for me I’m single and the bulk is just too much Comment from : RDJG51 |
|
I disagree :) Aldi's Oreos are SO good!!! Comment from : mirthfulllaugh |
|
Salad greens can be added to soups in order to use them up!🎉 So the bigger size might be a better buy if you remember to put them into soup or stew! Comment from : Cookshack Cuisinista and then some |
|
I am Cajun through and through Fortunately, we at a large variety of food However, I just can’t make myself eat what I’m jus not hungry for I am retired now I also don’t mind shopping for the best possible price for what I do want I live alone so I am aware that those with kids and families have a tougher time I am a retired teacher so I know the struggles What I have problem with is meal planning Since I don’t have any idea what I feel like eating each day Lol The way I battle this, is that I cook and freeze a large variety of dishes I also understand that Cajuns are a breed apart That’s why people come here for the food,the music, and the fun Isn’t it great that people are different br😂 Comment from : Sandra Francois |
|
I love grocery shopping so much more than clothes shopping! Nothing fits me properly (weird proportioned body shape) but I get pleasure shopping for food and home goods Comment from : Julie McDonald |
|
There’s only the 2 of us now but we save a huge amount of$ with our Costco membership We buy virtually all our gas there, we live less than 3 miles from a Costco and can easily plan trips down that way to top off our tanks I love their store brand unscented liquid laundry detergent, we go through a big tub of spinach every week…much cheaper than the stores here The store brand non fat yogurt is half the price of what we can find at the stores near us We buy all our tires there, we’ve bought a mattress through Costco and even managed a great deal on one of our cars through them Big Costco proponent here! But yes, you do have to have restraint Comment from : Barb Huber |
|
Totally agree with you on no to wholesale memberships I don’t do them Never have I refuse to pay in order to shop I would overspend and overbuy Nope Comment from : Mary Watkins |
|
Albertson's has great coupons this week Southern California Ramen noodles 4 cents limit 24 72 cent for noodles rites crackers 16 oz big box 97 cents limit 4 and planters dried peanut bottles 97 cents limitbr4 all chicken 🐔 parts except breast 99 cents whole chicken 99 cents and sirloin steaks 399 other great coupons aldo Comment from : hello5 |
|
For me, the generic is almost always cheaper than the name brand with a coupon It doesn't matter how big of a discount something is if it isn't something you use And on the clubs, I have a Sam's and Walmart next door to each other A gallon of Sam's branded milk is currently running almost $5, the Walmart branded milk is running 150 for the same gallon from the same packaging plantbrbrBuild up the notebook that compares prices across several stores using the same units of measure Even in the same store, they will often switch between price per ounce and per pound, or even per unit Doing the math will let you compare things on an apples to apples basis Comment from : David Keyser |
|
Tip #1 don’t let the husband go shopping for the family! Comment from : Daniel Dennison |
|
Yaaayyy!!! A new SMM vid in my feed just when I want to unwind after a long day at work, and now my evening is perfect!! Thank you for all the great tips, inspo, and all your efforts on this channel!! XOXO's Comment from : Better Living on a Budget |
|
What wonderful tips! I have the upside app but am having issues linking my account so will revisit this weekend! I am a huge huge user of generic everything! I use my credit cards all the timeI pay everything in full each monthno longer carry cashI stick to my budget as best ableand I wait thirty days before most purchases because I will only buy it if I need itif that makes sense! Comment from : valerie d |
|
I work at a major grocery/drug store and it makes shopping a definite challenge to save money because it’s too easy to pick up items every time you work Luckily they have a store card with reward points and you can get items for free Comment from : sue rospert |
|
Mindy do you use bag lettuce etc from the bag which says washed or do you still wash again given the often recalls of these due to bacteria Comment from : Mudturtle |
|
great as always Comment from : OKWesley Fellowship |
|
I use sales, n I have spent $500 this month so far plus started using pantry 👀 Which s insane because I would spend $400 for family of 6 for a month! Comment from : Healthy Living |
|
Back when we used to use checks to pay for things, I had a nodded credit card that gave cash back Every time I played with my card, I treated it like a check and put it in my register, subtracting it from my balance You could just use a notebook instead of a check register brHaving to write down every purchase really makes you think about what you're spending too Comment from : Theresa Ann Diaz |
|
It does take a little homework to figure out what is truly a good deal, but wholesale clubs are worth it for every household with 2+ people IF you're smart about it Comment from : greenlantern |
|
I’m dehydrating a lot of veggies now, the ones before it goes bad n we aren’t using in meals Leave my kids at home, 😅 no junk food, my husband buys junk food mainly 🥴 N he doesn’t check prices Comment from : Healthy Living |
|
Great tips! I have wanted to visit Costco since it opened here but I have not dared! LOL! I am too impulsive in shops! Thank you for the video! Comment from : Daniel in the Antipodes |
|
How do you have your individual yogurts sitting on their side? Comment from : Heather Dillingham |
|
Love the blue daisy shirt! Where'd you get it? Comment from : Darcy K |
|
I also find that coupons have much shorter dates It seems that by the time I go to use it it's past date Comment from : Maria Hurley |
|
If you happen to have leftover salad greens you can sautee them just like you sautee spinach and add to any dish they taste wonderful Comment from : kalithea |
|
Great video! Thank you! ❤ Comment from : Zoe |
|
I live in a small town There are no stores that deliver here There is a Walmart 20 minutes away that has Walmart pickup I use it for multiple reasons, and it's very helpful The downside is that I don't go in the store to see if there are good clearance deals Comment from : Steph H |
|
Just poking in to say I LOVE your personality Mindy! My kids are long grown My husband and I eat very simply He eats processed and more cconvenience foods and I am a WFPB "mainly" eater BUT I love to shop It's what retired people do!
