 Hey you guys welcome back to our channel. My name is Andrea with Food and Mentory Adventures in Food. Our channel is all about the food. We do taste test recipes, grocery hauls and what's for dinner. And I am here today with a mini haul from the 99 cent store. I haven't been there in a while and decided to pop in today and I found some great things and I wanted to share them with you. It's not a bunch of stuff because we really don't need a lot of stuff. For those of you that have been following our channel you know that we're expecting a baby pretty soon and I am currently in the middle of doing a freezer and pantry challenge but these deals were so good that I just couldn't pass them up so let me jump in. So the first thing that I was super excited about were these Hanson's sodas and this is root beer flavor and they do expire pretty soon. I got these for Howard. He likes root beer. I'm not a big root beer fan at all so I know that he'll drink these pretty quickly but in addition to the root beer flavor they also had a mandarin lime and then they also had a grapefruit but I just grabbed one ordinarily. I probably would have picked one from one of each flavor but like I said we really are trying, well I'm really trying to use what I got because what I have because I just tend to go crazy buying groceries sometimes so I just got one six pack of the root beer and then another great deal that I couldn't pass up was this naked berry blast and this doesn't expire until November 10th so that was a really good deal. So I have a month to use this up and for those of you that aren't familiar with naked all it is is fruit that's been pureed and blended. This is a big container this is 64 ounces and let me see if I can show you the ingredients if I can focus in. So there are the ingredients so that was a pretty good deal. Another thing that I was super excited to see were these Adels Teriyaki and Pineapple Chicken Meatballs. So Howard and I went to Sam's oh gosh it's been a while ago and they had these out for samples and Howard really liked this flavor Teriyaki and Pineapple when I brought these home just a little while ago he couldn't remember. I do remember him really liking these a lot now I'm not a big pineapple person like I like pineapple juice but just to eat the fruit itself I'm not a huge fan of um but you know hopefully I'll like them you know more than I did when I tried them as a sample but I got two packages and again these were 99 cents which is a steal. I'm gonna throw these in our freezer they don't expire until November though and then the other flavor that I got of the Adels is the caramelized onion which is definitely more at my alley and I got two packages of those too and you guys know 99 cents is a steal. They also had some chicken sausage links by Adels I didn't get that because I wasn't crazy about the ingredients in it so that it had um black beans and I think it was flax seeds or something like that something I wasn't into so skipped out on that and then I got some of these Orlaida Simple and Creamy Mashed Potatoes Homestyle I have hauled these from the 99 cent store before but I have not seen them in a while and I actually thought that they weren't going to get them in anymore and this is a big family size I love these mashed potatoes because the only thing that they have in them and let me see if I can find it for you here it is our potatoes cream and butter that's it I love these things you pop them in the microwave and they really do taste homemade they also had in addition to just the simply creamy mashed potatoes they had the um the potato and cauliflower mixed like the mixed um mashed potatoes and cauliflower but we don't like cauliflower so I didn't get that and by the way I forgot to mention to you if you're not familiar with the 99 cent store everything there is not most everything there I should say is 99 cents but they do have some things that are like $1.99 $2.99 $5.99 etc kind of like what the Dollar Tree is doing right now you know they have their stuff that's a dollar and then they have stuff that's more so it's pretty similar um at the 99 cent store but I definitely think that the 99 cent store has a better variety of food and more things for 99 cents for sure okay so then also I've been wanting to try these um French's um crispy fried onions now I buy the regular ones but these have white cheddar and I've been wanting to try these and they were 99 cents so I couldn't pass them up they do expire in expire in November but that's okay um and then the other thing they had was white chocolate chips with Christmas coming up I like to do a lot of baking and a lot of my recipes call for white chocolate chips and you know 99 cents for some white chocolate chips is a really good deal they had Nestle and they also had bakers now the reason that I got I would normally get the bakers instead of the Nestle's but the bakers expired um I mean their white morsel chips they expired in like in a week or so they expired in October and then these don't expire until let's see um January sorry I couldn't find it January and then the last thing that I saw non-food item is this Purell professional surface disinfectant I've seen a few people haul it and I've forgotten about it but it disinfects food contact surfaces no rinse required and let me show everything that it does and everything that it fights so I thought that was a really good deal so like I said I didn't pick up a lot of stuff but the stuff that I got I was like wow this is a great deal so I wanted to share it with you guys I hope you all like this video if you did please make sure to give us a thumbs up and if you haven't subscribed we hope that you'll do so thanks so much for watching guys have a good one see you guys next time
