Current Grocery Prices in Alaska- Spend the Day with me in Anchorage

Almost a year ago, I put together a price comparison of various groceries in Alaska. Well, I am at it again but this time, I included a wider array of stores and am comparing the prices to the lower 48. So, spend the day with me in Anchorage, and surprising @AlaskaCuttheCord to say, "Thank you!" in person.

    Im 71 now n living in Maryland but lived in Anchorage for 20 years back 1970- 1990 n miss living there, i worked as an RN in the Burn Unit n as a flight nurse. I got to more than 40 towns through out the state. Alaska was so different back then. Like only one small movie theater, just afew grocery stores,only 3 thrift shops, no large stores like Costco.I did alot of cross-country skiing n came close to many wild animals such as moose, bears, eagles n was never afraid. Animals know fear so need to be calm. I could write a book on all the experiences i had. I did keep a long journal. I miss Alaska.

    I'm glad your FORD did not break down out there. The grocery stores in AK are price gouging you on many items. However a lot of it is due to shipping. We pay 1.10 -1.99 for dozen eggs in the midwest. Ground beef 4.50-5.50 a lb. is average. Milk is 3-4$ a gallon. When I go to TX, food is about the same but more driving. I been to Alaska many times, always armed. Them bears get hungry too. Smoked Salmon. Moose jerky. Bear stew can be delicious. Let's get cooking.

    We were in Alaska in July last year. Absolutely beautiful. It’s so nice to recognize a lot of the sights you show along Richardson Highway. We did the train ride from Anchorage to Seward and back. We had a gorgeous sunny day. So much beauty. I highly recommend that train excursion. We had rented a van and then drove from Anchorage to Homer, spent some time there and then on to Seward. After spending time in Seward, we headed to Denali National Park. From there we headed to Fairbanks. There we did a river cruise on the Sternwheeler. Also on to North Pole, on to Tok and a side trip to Chicken, and then Valdez. We spent the day on a boat in Prince William Sound. We also were in Palmer and Wasilla. So much beauty. Loved everything about the trip. Would love to go back.

HEB is a family owned chain in Texas and they are great people. What Hurricane Harvey was making it's way inland, people were in the store panicking and the employees had it all under control. Plus they handed out a what to do info sheet. Thanks for the shopping. ❤

For some reason I was impressed with that first grocery store, didn't expect it to be so "modern" , and immediately thought of how all those items get up to Alaska.

    Hi Alone and Kenai 👋🥰It’s good to see the both of you✌️ Yes I agree on the pricing. Seems a lot of things are around the same price as here in Michigan in some places. I’m thankful I have a neighbor that raises beef steer and I get my meat from them. It rounds out to about $5.11 per pound of any cut. Recently it was $920.00 for 180lbs of meat (1/4 cow). I shop Walmart and Sam’s club here as well for food staples and what not. We raise chickens so I don’t have to worry about buying eggs lol. Me being gluten and dairy free is a little challenging but over all it works. Thank you for taking us along. Much love, stay safe, take care and God Bless🙏🥰🙏✌️

    Hi Debbie! I don't remember what I paid in 2022 per pound of beef for the side of beef I purchased, but I am thankful that I purchased it when I did. The meat prices are so costly that I cannot imagine trying to fill my freezers from the grocery store. I rarely shop at Walmart and haven't been in a Sam's Club in years. I don't actually know if there are any in Alaska, but am thankful that I got a Costco membership finally. It has paid for itself, which is something that I did not mention in the video. I am glad that you are able to provide for you and your family with your chickens, garden and having neighbors who raise beef. Thank you again for being a channel member and watching the videos. 🤗💛

    Hello Alone it's good to see you. I haven't been on to see your videos my son in law got into a bad car accident and his back got broken and his legs where hurt. This happened on Christmas day. Those mandarins oranges you got Blue J. Is a great story about them. The company is here in my hometown and mama was the bookkeeper my daddy built the sheds and I worked there. Mandarins and Oranges and Grapefruits in winter and in Summer all kinds of produce. I retired from there 40 years of beautiful agriculture. God bless and keep warm. Good to see you and yes I seen the moose.

    I just left Alaska. I lived there most of my life. To cold. To dark. I didn't want to get trapped there when the supply chain goes down.

    Was listening on the drive to work. It amazes me how people equate age with value/worth. There was a tool seller at a local flea market that knew nothing about antique tools. He'd price old broken rusty tools antique prices and his retort was always the same. "It's old." We are talking about broken tools that I only wanted a single part from to rehab actual tools with value. Anyway, I always enjoy the practical inside knowledge episode's. Good job, ma'am.

    Hi Chris! I hope you are doing well. I agree about how some people equate age with value or worth. A friend once told me that something only has value if it means something to you. If you have a practical use for it, or if it is of some sentimental value. And that just because it is a collector's item, or old does not make it valuable. Even if the one off sold for an outrageous price does not mean that a like item will do the same. Either way, I am sure someone somewhere is willing to pay top dollar for these items. It just isn't in my budget. I appreciate you watching... or listening... 😉 to the videos. And thank you for your continued support of the channel. 🤗💛

    I live in South Texas. I refuse to shop at heb. They are very expensive. I shop aldie and I shop Walmart. Aldie milk 2.19 gallon. Walmart 2.48 gallon. Costco is so very expensive also. Thank you. Pray for Texas as we fight to close the borders. We have had close to a million crossing the Texas and Arizona border. Thank you

    Very informative and helpful for the price deference. From what you shared Walmart looked like the best prices deal. And great video driving 😊

    Hello from hoonah….we have one small grocery store and one tiny kind of convenience store. Groceries are very expensive and the selection is limited. So, we can get Instacart by plane from Juneau, but of course, then there is the additional freight charge. I just moved here this year to take a teaching job at age 69. I love it.

    I live in Alaska, have been for 62 of my 67 years. From homesteading in Fairbanks as a child til ‘69, graduated from Cordova in ‘74 back to Fairbanks in ‘78, now currently outside of Wasilla since 2016. You did not show a real comparison of the food or prices. Just like anywhere you need to shop for the best prices, chose what is worthwhile considering the distances between places & time spent shopping. Of course there is a difference between here and Outside but I do know for a fact that most grocery stores outside don’t have the selection of items, fresh produce or meat and seafood. I’m very familiar with Sagaya’s, they have an outrageous selection of fresh vegetables/produce but you will pay for it. I shop there every time I go to Anchorage, love it! Costco isn’t better and has worse quality, especially meats but they do have a wonderful selection/variety most of the time. Fred’s may cost less sometimes but their meat isn’t that good and they will not have items in stock or no brand choice, a lot. The point I’m making is you have to shop and consider your options, what it cost to get there and what you’re able to spend. It’s expensive just to drive from where you’re at to and from Anchorage, along with your lodging. Probably in the long run it would behove you to shop Palmer/Wasilla. Alaska is expensive, but no more so than LA, New York or other I would say are extreme, populous places to live. It is a choice to live here just like anywhere else. I acknowledge your point to show the differences in prices, but the reality is there is no way to compare Barrow to Anchorage to somewhere in the lower 48. There is no comparison between any of these places.

    Things are more affordable at Walmart stores. There are three of them in Anchorage area. The one on A street is my regular store. Things are expensive at Frey Meyer. I don't go there. What I cannot find at walmart,I do without
