 Hi guys, happy Saturday. It is early. It is about 10 minutes to 7 a.m I'm just sitting outside of the grocery store to head in and do my first round of grocery shopping I'm actually going to be hitting up three stores this morning to round out all of my Groceries for the week. So I'm outside of Fred Meyer, which is a Kroger store and then from here I'm heading over to Trader Joe's I want to pick up some of the light shredded mozzarella if they have any before it's gone I don't know if you guys heard but I apparently they're redoing the packaging and the nutritional information on The light shredded mozzarella. It's wrong. I guess so it is going to be discontinued until 2020 I literally almost cried. It is my favorite cheese So I'm gonna stop by there and see if I can grab a few packages It freezes beautifully So if you have a Trader Joe's near you go ahead and run over grab the light mozzarella Well, you can and throw it in your freezer And I also want to get some fresh flowers and just kind of do a little peeking around seeing what's new on WW at Trader Joe's and then I'm doing a Walmart grocery pickup as well to pick up some of those Things that I really like to grab out Walmart that Fred Meyer doesn't carry And then I'm also going to be showing you my Costco haul that I went to Costco earlier this week with My mom so I'm going to show you that as well. So this is going to be a huge Grocery haul so if you want to see what I picked up to stay on track and lose weight on the WW freestyle program Then just keep watching So here's what I picked up at Costco it is Tuesday I'm just adding this to the beginning of my Saturday grocery haul So mom and I went to Costco all of the prices will be on the screen So the first thing I picked up was this big bag of the little potato company dynamic duo This was a bargain. This is five pounds and you pay like four dollars for a little tiny bag We love these potatoes. They're great in the air fryer They're great to throw in the oven the crock pot the instant pot So we decided to go ahead and grab a bag of the dynamic duos Also, we use Zantac for a heartburn especially my husband This was a steal this lasts us months and months and this is great if you have consistent heartburn Also on sale was Costco's version of Claritin, which is their allergy meds. This is enough for a year It's one tablet a day and there's 365 tablets and I think this was on sale for like eight bucks You cannot beat that so stalks up on our medicine. I also grabbed some more gummy vitamins I like these ones with calcium and these were really good price as well to containers 120 vitamins per container. Also, I found this super cute shirt It's a little see-through But I thought that you could wear just a tank underneath, but it's a cute short sleeve shirt And it's got this cute detailing on the sleeves and also around the neck and this was on clearance for seven Bucks so that I thought this would be great for a work shirt It's light perfect for summer, but it's got a nice desirable look to it very professional Also found my dog some checkups dog treats my dogs cannot have chicken or grain So I have to be really careful with what treats I buy them and these were a great price Great for tartar buildup. I just break them in half and diesel gets half and low like it's half So they last a super long time There's 24 in the package. So that's basically 48 treats for me Also, I got a big thing of taco seasoning Costco has the best price for that This is like 80 million packages and it's like four bucks. So I went ahead and grabbed that I've been seeing these all over Instagram and social media. These are the Tyson chicken strips I know there's a salt and pepper one Which is what I really wanted, but they didn't have it at my Costco And then there's this blackened and these are zero points on Weight Watchers you guys and there's 20 grams of protein Zero smart point. So I thought how great would this be? They're fully cooked so you can just warm them up in your air fryer in a pan or even in the microwave and toss them on a salad So I thought what a quick and easy way to have pre-cooked chicken on hand That's zero points. That's already seasoned. So I was really excited to find that and speaking of chicken I restocked up on my foster farms. I think this is a fan a tastic deal So this was just under $25 and it's just over eight pounds of chicken 299 a pound these are tear-off pouches leak-resistant and I just literally tear these into individual pouches So there's six per package toss them in my freezer. There's two chicken breasts per pouch Perfect for my husband and I love these. I think the quality of the chicken is outstanding and 299 a pound is a great price For a name brand chicken. So every time I go to Costco, I grab this I also grabbed the Costco or the Kirkland Signature canola cooking spray Now I normally don't buy this because it had propellants in it But if you notice I believe they have changed their Formula for their cooking spray and it also says non-gym genetically engineered So the price on this is fantastic So I went ahead and grabbed it just to stock up on my cooking spray I also picked up a case of water which is not shown and lastly non-ww friendly I grabbed this 36 pack of Pringle cans for my husband's lunch. This was 10 bucks you guys for 36 That's a steal. So everything here at Costco I'll put my total I spent here on the screen for you guys, but yeah, that's my little mini Costco haul Mine is a little case of water. So let's go on to our Fred Meyer or our Kroger grocery haul So I'm gonna show you everything that I picked up at Kroger. So first they had a great deal on the 16 pack of the Ritz Crackers, these are for my husband But I thought I'd show them to you just in case you liked these and wanted to incorporate these Into your eating for the day, but this is for my husband. This was a great deal I think it was 399 and normally I pay that for eight packs and this is 16 So he takes these in his lunch I also grabbed some hard-boiled eggs just for ease their pre-shelled pre-packaged into two eggs These were also on sale for a great price just about two dollars So just nice to have on hand for a quick easy snack Sour cream I picked up the natural for my husband and the reduced fat for myself We use this a lot in Mexican type of dishes which we've been out of sour cream So it was nice to pick these up just to have these on hand. I also grabbed some mixed veggies This is for an upcoming recipe this next week And I've never purchased these but this was on clearance for about two dollars and fifty cents This is our farm fresh real chopped basil and basically they're in little frozen cubes So all you do is keep these in your freezer And when you want basil you just pop them out and put them in your dish and I thought for the price I wanted to give them a try I never eat the fresh basil fast enough before the plant goes bad and the dried basil Just is never as good as the fresh. So I grabbed these to have on hand. I Needed some salsa for an upcoming dinner recipe. So I grabbed this private selection restaurant style salsa in mild Also, I need almond milk and I've been hearing all about the cashew milk So I went ahead and picked that up instead of almond milk for this week My staple the fat-free ready whip. This is for my smart cake yogurt parfaits This is a new item for me that I decided to try if I've heard that these are excellent This is the enlightened and this one is the cold cold brew coffee chip Yes coffee and ice cream and these you guys are only three smart points for the entire ice cream bar So I wanted to give those a try I can't wait. I'll have to report back and let you guys know how these are and as you know I do buy green beans for my dogs every week and this was only two dollars and ten cents for four cans Versus 70 cents a can so I thought I'm just gonna buy four cans. This will last me I don't have to worry about running out. So cut green beans for them I do rinse these a couple of times Before I give them to them just to remove the salt also Tillamook string cheese was on sale for two dollars and 50 cents So I grabbed the colby jack. These will basically be for my husband's lunch But if you have a friend Meyer or Kroger store, I wanted to show these to you. That's an excellent price Also in the bulk section. I picked up some poppy seeds and this is for an upcoming recipe I believe for my lunch prep if you don't need a lot of a spice It is best to buy them in the bulk section. I think this was 20 cents rather than buying a whole thing of poppy seeds That I'll probably never use again. I also bought a can of corn. This is for an upcoming dinner recipe They have their steak on a really good sale So I picked up two packs this entire pack of petite sirloin Which is one of the lower point red meat steaks It was only seven dollars and then a large pack here for only ten dollars I do need steak for two upcoming dinner recipes this next week That was a fantastic deal and you can just freeze these cut the extra fat off and you have a really lean Cut of meat. I also grabbed two dozen of my happy eggs As you know, these are my favorite eggs in the world and these were still on sale for $3.99 a dozen So I picked up two dozen I also about bought some imitation crab meat now I wanted real crab meat, but a little tiny six ounce can was $20. I can't do it So I decided to just get this imitation The points aren't too bad and I'm going to be making a recipe with this And I don't even think you'll notice imitation versus real crab So whatever your preference is. I just didn't want to pay $20 for six ounces when this is a 16 ounce package And it was like four dollars and then I got a couple of non food things I just wanted to share with you these let me shine, which is a great brand of dishwasher detergent cleaners was on sale for 99 cents a package I love their dishwasher cleaner. You literally throw this in start a cycle and your dishwasher comes out Sparkling clean and for 99 cents not a bad price. So I grabbed four of those And then I also picked up the washing machine cleaner I have a front load and that rubber seal just gets gross It just icky. So I use this every once in a while to clean my washing machine And I've never tried the let me shine brand. So I'm excited great product great brand if you're looking for dishwasher washing machine and I even had garbage disposal and again 99 cents on sale through the weekend And then I went ahead and picked up a refill of my wet and wild primer water I use this I spray my face with this before I apply my makeup Usually I buy the coconut but with summer here I decided to buy the cucumber and this is so Awesome your makeup sits on your face so nicely. It's refreshing And so this was on sale for 4.99. So I picked that up as well So that's everything that I grabbed at Fred Meyer. So let's go ahead and move in to Trader Joe's So here's what I picked up at Trader Joe's. So first I grabbed A stem of flowers. I like having fresh flowers on the island in my kitchen So I went ahead and grabbed another bundle 3.99. I also grabbed this plain Pizza dough for my husband whenever I make the two ingredient dough pizzas. I just buy this for him It's a dollar 19 and it is literally ready to go So what I do is I just throw it in the freezer until pizza night And then I roll that out and make him his pizza on that and I do the two ingredient dough I also grabbed the Trader Joe smoked turkey breast. This is zero smart points So I'm really excited to have this. It's all natural. There's nothing added to it No antibiotics nothing at all and it was a pretty good deal. I want to say 2.99 I really am craving like a turkey and cheese wrap on an Olay wrap So I grabbed these so that I could make that for lunch today And then green onions. I need these for a couple of upcoming recipes. I grabbed a ton of lettuce My lunch this week requires a lot of lettuce. So first I picked up a pack of baby spinach I also love butter lettuce and this is already cut up and ready to go And then I picked up some romaine as well that way I can mix the three lettuces together for my salad I grabbed a red onion and that is for an upcoming recipe same with the avocado as well as a single line I also picked up a big pack of organic strawberries These were 5.99 not bad at all for two pounds of strawberries And this is for my lunch meal prep and then the rest we can just eat throughout the week And then I picked up a watermelon 3.99 great deal. I'm loving some watermelons. So here's a tip on picking a watermelon So first you want to look for this webbing That is a good sign of a juicy ripe watermelon And you also want your watermelon to have quite a large yellow circle And some webbing that means that it sat on the ground a long time. So it is nice and juicy So a couple tips on how to pick a good watermelon Unfortunately, my Trader Joe's was out of the light shredded mozzarella And in fact, there wasn't even a tag for it anymore. So I'm very sad and I think it's gone until next year So that makes me really sad. I even asked and she checked checked in the back and they didn't have any So this was my Trader Joe's haul Lastly, I'm going to show you what I picked up at Walmart And lastly, here's the few things I picked up at Walmart Not shown is some beer for my husband as well as a 24 pack of diet coke for my husband as well So these are the few things in addition to that that I grabbed at Walmart So I have some Olay wraps as I mentioned I've been really craving a wrap like a turkey lettuce mayo cheese So I picked up another pack of Olay wraps not to mention. They are a lot less expensive at Walmart I also grabbed two of the fat free cream cheese. I cannot find these at Fred Meyer where I typically shop And I just throw these in the freezer until I'm ready to use them. They freeze beautifully. They come out perfect So two of the fat free cream cheese I also grabbed another box of the sugar free yellow cake mix I don't have any on hand and I have a recipe in mind to use this again I can't find this at Fred Meyer. So I always add it to my walmart pickup Also two and a half pounds or 2.25 pounds of 96 for extra lean ground beef I just weigh this out on my food scale Divide it into ziploc bags and pop it in my freezer. Great deal This was a little over 10 dollars for 2.25 pounds and you can't beat that for extra extra lean in 96 for I always grab g hues sugar free barbecue sauce at walmart again I cannot find this at Fred Meyer So whenever I do a walmart grocery haul, I add it and lastly I've been seeing this all over youtube and instagram This is the cake batter extract. There are so many things that you guys can do with this So stay tuned for some upcoming recipes I believe I first saw this on amanda cybert's channel But don't quote me on that but you can use this in a ton of recipes.
