Idk how I even fell into the rabbit hole of huge grocery hauls. They stress me out but I’m so intrigued 👀 I get annoyed putting away $100 worth of groceries I can’t even imagine putting all this away! Now all of the sudden I have an urge to go to Costco 🧐

You are for sure going to do another food haul before summer ends. 😂😂

I love to stock up for my family. We don’t eat out much unless we order pizza but this is perfect for a large family who eats at home for all meals plus snacks for the kids! Best haul ever!

I feel like I could spend this much at the store and STILL manage to forget to purchase things lol

I have a master list for Costco - before we go I go through and mark what we need. It helps to prevent forgetting things.

yowza, that haul cost more than my monthly net worth.

I love stock shopping, I just hate the part of having to put it all away. Another lady who does stock shopping is Queen’s Cabinet I believe is her name!! Great haul Melissa, thanks for sharing!

I personally think it is smarter to shop this way. I am single with no kids, so currently I kinda just shop as I need things, but that will change once I start a family. Never feel guilty for how you guys utilize the money YOU earn! Thanks for posting. Your family’s day-to-day antics make my quarantine life a little bit better! ❤️

Been watching you for a while now and I love your transparency you are amazing and thanks for being just you girl.

Yes! I saw the vlog and was super excited for this to go live ♥️ thank you for sharing!

We recently spent 750 dollars at Costco to refill our basics - I have 2 pantry areas in the kitchen, a bottom freezer in the refrigerator, a huge standing freezer in the garage, and a large double door storage cabinet in the garage as well. I have a large basket with a hinged top to store paper towels and toilet paper. We normally don't spend this much at Costco. It took me a bit of time to get it all put away.

Daaaaaang this made me want to go grocery shopping which I've been procrastinating on but I swear if I had the money/space I'd do a haul like this for my channel. You go girl 🙌🏻😘

It’s crazy how it adds up! And no need to apologize. You weren’t excessive. You’re just feeding your family ❤️

Amazing!!! We have not attempted a shopping trip this big due to lack of storage! But hopefully that will be changing soon!!

it' great to stock up like that, I would just be stressing to have to put it all away. I hope you have the storage for all that. Alot of good buys though. You are definitely set for the summer. Hope you all enjoy the pool and have lots of family fun this summer.

you just keep doing what you love to do and that is sweet you helping out your family ☺️☺️

Nothing wrong with stocking up! As long as things don’t go to waste which most stuff your freezing so it’s a blessing to have the finances to do this 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾awesome haul 😉

Those Koru apples are so good! Very crisp:) I've been finding them at the 99 cent store here in SA...I had never heard of them either, but now we love them. Thanks for sharing your fantastic stock up haul Melissa :)

Your family is extremely blessed! Love watching your videos!! ☺️

Shopping, hauling in and filming a $300 Costco haul exhausts me! You go girl! I would've been outta breath after the first table 😂

i love how you shop that is my kinda shopping great job and your very nice thinking about your family and friends ❤️☺️

You guys rock! No explanations are necessary!!! You take care of your family and that’s all that’s matters!!!! Keep doing you!!! 😊

I love, love, love grocery hauls...I’m going to grab a cup of coffee and enjoy this massive haul. Tee hee!! That must have been so fun to do. 💕💕

You don’t have to justify how much you spend, I love huge grocery hauls! I can live vicariously through you guys haha I’ve stopped myself from going to Costco since March because I know I’d spend well over what I should be spending, so it’s nice to watch other people do it lol

I’ve been waiting for this haul since your vlog!!! Ohhh so satisfying... lol I came from a big family so I know those long days at the stores lol 😆

I wish I had a SAMs or COSTCO near me because even though there's only me and my two little girls still in the house, I'd definitely buy bulk. I don't have a deep freezer or large refrigerator so I guess I could only do pantry items but, I can see the savings in buying bulk! I'm a couponer and always price check! Too bad my closest location is more than an hour away so I'll just have to continue to hit up sales with my coupons.

Thanks for sharing! This must have taken you a long time to prep! Love the hauls

Omg ive been waiting all day for this. But $1800😱 that would have to last me for at least 6 months.. It might be just me but I even feel better for you that you stocked up finally..

This is how I shop!! We have 8 family members and this helps us save a ton in the long run.

Hi. Wooooowwwww! This is a LOT OF WORK!🤪 👏👏👏 3 questions. 1- Did you make a detailed shopping list prior to this? 2- How many fridges and freezers do you have in your house? 3- How large is your family? Thanks

I love how you had your liquoir and formula next to each other xD

I live In the uk and spend about £100 a week , I love American food hauls ! My family live in Nyc so I love to get bits when I come over , much love stay safe xx

You've got a lot of good stuff in there! Great haul! ☺️

I really enjoyed that haul. You are the champion of grocery hauls. Awesome ❤😀

I would love to know how you keep things good for the long haul. I've done some monthly hauls, but much of the produce is bad before we get to it, or we just have to eat it up and only have some of the stuff we enjoy that first week and then go without (salad stuff etc). I'd love to know what you freeze and what you don't to make that work and if you go back out to add in fresh produce or if you just do salads in the beginning and then go without.

I'm pretty sure they shop in between for fresh produce. I have watched other videos that do claim that if you store produce such as apples and potatoes in cardboard boxes and in a cool place they store well.

That unicorn pool float, 15 dollars? They have them at big lots for 9

I am supper inspired to budget better to have a huge haul like this I hate going to the store often

Ohhh I hope your Costco gets Turkey bacon soon! The ones I go to (Washington) have just one option I think, but it's soo good and a 4 pack for around $11/12. Freezes excellent also. Definitely worth keeping an eye out for!

I miss this massive hauls from u.thanks for this

i love your hauls

How did you like the deck box? I am thinking of getting one. TFS,I have to do my large shopping tomorrow.

You should do a video on your snack storage hun. Love you videos, God bless!

Great job! I tell you it's so hard shopping all in one day! Thanks for sharing!

HELLO MELISSA AND FAM. THAT WAS A GOOD HAUL. I LIKE TO SHOP LIKE THAT. I 'M WAITING ON MY NEW DEEP FREEZER.

Wow that was an awesome haul, thank you ☺

Hello Melissa!!🙂🙂 Wow great grocery haul!!🍇🍉🥕

On the book there is a five in the top right corner!! Love your videos!!

Ok yeah...I have a table of stuff as well but wow..where are you going to put everything?? Your kitchen has almost the same design as mine. Is an instapot your friend?? 😯😊 paper plates 👍 have fun organizing ❤👍

They are always something lucky about our family. The story of grocery like : When we went, Mr.Chens an ortinaltel store . They gave us four different flavor of jelly. We got it for free. Then here is another store Kroger. We were doing grocery shopping and they gave us a special cranberry bread for 1.00 and it was the last one. My mom had bougrh a fruit was a dollar and was on sale for 43 cents, We pay only 41 cents. The 1st story is my dad and I. The second store is just Mom and I. Then Mom only at the thrid store, When comes food is only a little of our luck. My brother was 11 years old and he flew solo since 8 years old as I remember. Our parents paid basic class seat. He was on the airplane and airtended and piolot gave him a first kid. My brother and I on the plane with Mom to go to New Hampshire. It is a full-packed . It was my 1st time sit on isle but my mom was at the backrow, We all were in backroll. Then nice stranger made organim out of a dollar bill to each of us. True luck is never earned until you worked for it. Mom helped a homeless family by buyin them a blankent , tenis shoes, and give them a decent amount. Brother has clean up chruch for boyscout. In elementary, At 5th grade we clean up the playround. I help to stop a bully at summer camp. Both brother and I were quite for 1 1/2 hr flight. All of us give our clothes to goodwill or our friend, We always put our money in salvation since we your young.

It’s a shame what food costs nowadays. Peaches sound yummy! Thank you for sharing your haul! Always excited for your videos.

Curious how that fresh fruit will last the summer.

Fun part gotta put it all away , have a great day

How do you keep the fruits from going bad? Everytime I'm at Costco i want to buy all the fruits but have to limit myself to 2 (usually do grapes and strawberries) otherwise things will go bad before we get a chance to eat them

Wow where do you keep it all? I only have a small chest freezer and small drawer freezer in my refrig. The refrig. is not big enough to hold all the staples and fresh stuff so buying large bulk packages of food is out. Fortunately there are only 2 of us. Still interesting to see what others find at the warehouse supermarkets.

There’s a difference between hoarding and stock piling for a period of time!!! You do you and what’s best for your family!!!!! I actually am loving my new shelves for stock piling because I hate to shop.....

I was looking forward to this. 😂

Your haul was fabulous 👌

It a great haul I am in small apartment so could never get that much stuff for my home.

Love it!

Wow formula is so expensive in America! In Ireland it's about 16 euro for container like that! Even the specialty premature baby formula is only 20 euro.

Enormous haul! 😀 I don’t understand how you manage to eat everything before it goes bad. Like the carrots, the lettuce.... Do you freeze the yoghurts or what is the date on them?

Wow what a haul... enjoyed watching

Here in Melbourne, Oz we don’t put the soft plastic in our recyclable bin. But take it to bins in some supermarkets.. I’m wondering how would you do it in the U.S?? Because whilst I admit that plastic can be necessary, they’re sadly also atrocious for our poor environment. Also, as the shopper for my little 2 adult household, can I just say WOW, y’all did great to stock up. Stay safe and healthy

In my town in MI we have to take soft plastic to the grocery store to recycle. The machines get jammed otherwise.

that is true paper plates are more easier to use

Wow what a haul your all set for sure ,

I bet u put ur steps up when u where putting the shopping away and a lovy video and nice to see ur mom x

I’m a single mom of one, so clearly the most I spend would be $300-400 a month and it would last me all summer...but. I love watching these megahauls anyway. 🍿 but putting all that stuff away would give me stress, nevermind that my small townhome only has one side by side fridge and small pantry lol

Very good shopping

woohhhooooooooooo! What a ginormous haul! You got some great stuff. I love it!

Hi melissa, great haul!!!tfs!!!👍👍♥️♥️😊😊

It’s okay you spent that much you do not have to explain anything to anyone we appreciate you being honest and sharing with us. Don’t let a few rude people dictate how you feel if you want to make sure your family is fed and that cost 1800 then that is what you spend and it’s healthier to eat at home than to eat out everyday

Love it I would love to be able to do this

I think 🤔 I’m going to try sams , wow 🤩 you have a lot to put away would like to see you cook 👩‍🍳 some of your food .

Tilapia yum

Wow love you hauls simply amazing 😉

Wow that was the a very big haul x

Nice haul!

How is the suavitel? I always wanted to try it. Does it stain your clothes etc

When we go to Costco I am always like. We need that Melissa this Melissa that omg Melissa loves this loves that lololol

Love your videos. !!!

Nice haul thumbs up

Great haul.

Hi from the Uk.... Now that's what I call a Costco haul. Thanks for sharing and how long did that you to put it all away???. I think the biggest I've done at Costco it about £1400.00 so much fun.

very good haul

How much were those shades? Where did you get them?

That is a HUGE Haul!! I'm so glad my kids are grown! Lol. It is just my hubby n I now and I shop twice a month. My grocery budget is $250 per month. I remember spending $300 a week when my kiddos were teenagers and never stopped eating. Lol

Melissa Ramirez same here. Three teenage boys eat a lot! I have to say I spent a lot more on produce than meat until we bought land, built a house, barn/shop and put in a quarter acre garden. Now it’s just my husband and me with the garden and cleaver shopping, we spend about $175 a month. I still can produce and share with my sons and their families.

I don't want it to come across the wrong way, but I have so many questions. How will you finish the summer without going back for fresh fruits and veggies? Do you waste a lot of food? All the fresh produce must go bad before it's done or do you freeze it or something? Do you plan your meals ahead of time? Do you homecook also or it's only the processed foods? I'm not American so I'm very intrigued about this lifestyle! Not judging :)

No vitamins for hubby?

Having a large storeroom full of canned, dried and packaged items in case we cannot or do not want to go to the store means that we (I will speak for myself here) end up eating a lot of foods that really are not good for us. Canned vegetables full of salt, packaged macaroni products full of salt and chemicals, canned beans (salt), and other instant foods that may have sugar in them. After I stockpiled quite a bit (for me, at least) I kept having to go to the store for fresh vegetables, fruits, milk, cheese, eggs and bread. I actually got a salt overload for awhile due to eating canned and processed foods to avoid the stores. Not good.

Nice Groceries Haul

Wow formula in the USA is exspensive! It’s £8-£10 a tub here so for four tubs would only be £40 (uk) 🙃 great haul btw :) xx

As long as it doesn’t go bad or wasted then it doesn’t matter. I buy in bulk, like super bulk and have no regrets. If you can afford it, go girl!

Does Costco sell baby food like the blue box?

With the state the economy is currently in, $1800 doesn’t seem that unusual anymore for wholesale shopping!! My husband and I can easily spend $300-$400 on just a regular two week “grocery” haul at Costco! And with a baby due next month I am sure that price will quickly increase overtime! I only wish I had that kind of money to do that all in day!! 🙌🏼

I agree money does not go as far. I used to get hamburger for around $2 a pound now in my town $6 a pound . Chicken breast used to be $1.49 a pound now $3.99 a pound. I cant shop for what I won't to eat now I have to shop for what I can afford.

If you can afford to do it, I think the best place to put your money at this time is FOOD....Great Haul... New Subscriber. Thank you for sharing.❤️

I have a Sam’s membership but have been thinking of getting a Costco as well. I like to buy up and stay out of the stores. I actually don’t like shopping 🤣

how do you keep your salad and lettuce fresh? i think im doing something wrong as it just not lasting in my fridge :/

You can get fridge keepers (Rubbermaid makes them in Canada-not sure if it’s the same company in the States). The veggies will still die, lol, but they last MUCH longer. Also, I’ve found beeswax wrap instead of plastic wrap helps, too!
