 Welcome back to my channel and welcome if you're new here. I am here today with a another grocery haul I have Walmart Fred Meyer and Trader Joe's and this is a special grocery haul because this next week's meals dinners are All coming from Trader Joe's so stay tuned for the Trader Joe's portion of the haul And I'll kind of tell you what my plan is, but I'm excited for this video something a little bit different five meal ideas Super inexpensive to make all five meals So if you want to see what I picked up for the week from Trader Joe's Fred Meyer and Walmart, just stay tuned Ended up doing a Walmart haul as well as my big Trader Joe's haul I can't wait to share all those recipes with you guys But at Walmart I had to pick up just a few things that we needed a lot of it is not food But I thought that I would show you anyway, so of course we needed some hangers Your girl has a lot of clothes so I need to go through them, but we were out of hangers So I picked up ten pack of hangers. I grabbed some new scents for fall for my scentsy burners. This is the autumn air pumpkin s'mores cinnamon and spice and Warm apple pie. I didn't realize this is a pretty small one, but that's okay It'll be nice to have those scents in my scentsy burners now. I'll tell you from experience I don't think the scentsy brand is any more potent than these to be honest with you I really like these I think the smell is really good. They last a long time and they're like two dollars versus five dollars So little heads up on the wax melts picked up a stapler and staples This is just for my desk at my real estate office I don't have a stapler and I'm always needing to staple papers and I have one and then I also picked up some more labels I just did a big mass mailing of postcards and so just to have these address labels on hand is nice pepper spray my husband has been basically forcing me to get some Spray for when I'm doing my open houses just to make sure that I'm safe at my open houses This just goes right on your key ring. So I'll always have it with me when I'm doing open houses So I grabbed that my husband is obsessed with these mother's circus frosted animal cookies Wait till you guys see the points. You're gonna die, but he loves these in his lunch Oh Yeah So I got him those for his lunch Chips for him, but I thought I'd show these to you guys because the points really aren't that bad I also grabbed some more of my no sugar added cherry pie filling little bummed out that my cans all dented from Walmart pickup So little bummed out about that some low fat cottage cheese. I'm still on that cottage cheese kick I'm loving cottage cheese with pepper and croutons yum and look what I sent found pumpkin pie yogurt I am still on the hunt for the sugar-free coffee mate peppermint mocha creamer So anyone knows where I can find that please holler. I will bypass the pumpkin to have that It's my favorite. So I picked up three of the light and fit pumpkin pie Greek yogurts Of course another can of my Hershey's whipped topping. I'm obsessed This is so incredibly delicious a big huge bag of broccoli. This is actually for tonight's dinner I like the florets better than the ones with the pieces So I do pay a little bit extra for the florets, but love them This was incredibly inexpensive like to less than 250 for two pounds So great deal and then I'll restock up on the Diet Coke for the hubby and then I picked up some Coke zero vanilla. So that is my Walmart haul for the week Here's my grocery haul from Fred Meyer. So I had to pick up a few things there since I mainly went to Trader Joe's for dinner items So here's what I picked up this week at Fred Meyer So I tried these at an open house that I did and they were delicious You can have nine of them for the serving size But you can just cut down the number of cookies and cut down the points, but they're fudge dipped They were mint. They were delicious. So I picked those up just to have on hand She had them in the freezer and that was really amazing. So I'm gonna throw mine in the freezer as well I picked up some carb master milk instead of the fair life just due to the controversy with how they treat their animals So I do need milk for my overnight oats that I'm gonna be making this week and a couple of other recipes So the carb master is actually less points than or less calories. I should say than the fair life Eggs so that I can make egg salad sandwiches for my husband and then whatever is left over just to have for breakfast. I Found the toasted marshmallow light and fit Greek yogurt. I was really excited So I picked up two of those so that I could have a smart cake parfaits Which is one of my favorite desserts and then I also grabbed four of the light and fit vanilla This is for my overnight oats wait till you guys see my recipe for my breakfast this week and my oats I cannot wait. So I picked up four containers of the vanilla light and fit Greek yogurt mini chocolate chips, which is also for my overnight oats You're starting to get the feel for what I'm doing. I'm really excited about them. So mini chocolate chips Two packages of ramen. This is for a recipe this week I'm really only using the noodles so I cannot wait to make this recipe. It sounds really good So I picked up two packs of that Also a can of pumpkin. This is for my dessert that I'll be doing for meal prep Old-fashioned oats for my overnight oats I also found this roasted garlic breadcrumbs. These were on sale for 99 cents And I really like the Kroger brand of breadcrumbs. So I grabbed these just to have another flavor on hand Sounds really good, especially for meatballs and things like that. You can bread chicken with it excited about that I was out of soy sauce. So I picked up another container of light soy sauce Bread for my husband's lunch But I always like to show you guys some options for bread if you want a regular size slice of bread What the smart points for that would be so buttermilk wide pan bread and then for produce just to head a broccoli for a recipe and red grapes and Black grapes both of which were on sale for $1.99 a pound So that's everything at Fred Meyer with the exception of a case of water and some diet coke So let's move into Trader Joe's which is our big haul for the week and here is my trader Joe's haul for the week So I am doing a special video where I am doing five nights of dinner all from Trader Joe's all from the frozen food section So you're gonna see a lot of Meal ideas and I'm gonna put them all together and you're gonna see five nights of Trader Joe's frozen meals I'm really excited to do this video something new something different.

They lasted about three and a half weeks, which was crazy So I grabbed those so that I could put them on the island here in my kitchen Also for my dogs. I picked up some salmon jerky dog treats that all that's in this is Salmon and salt so my dogs can have it no grain no chicken. So I grabbed that Also some sun-dried tomatoes.
