I am so thankful that my dad retired from the post office when he did. Prices for stamps are going to go even higher with less and less people using USPS. So, if you do your invitations by mail, you’re better off just purchasing forever stamps. Then, if you have any left over, you can always use forever stamps. It doesn’t matter how much the price goes up.

Happy Sunday everyone 🌞 Mama Bell I hope you all are having a great Florida vacation.🏖 Shrimp tacos sound delicious. I enjoy these Dollar Tree meal videos.

The pronunciation of chipotle is driving me crazy. I wanted to scream after about the 10th time she said it. Too funny.

This is so Real. I can never find everything I need in stock during one trip to Dollar Tree. Thanks for this video!

We make a similar rice dish - but we use the instant pot and it comes out perfectly! ♥ I can't get enough of seeing snow outside your windows while I sit in 70-degree weather in Texas. 😎😎😎

There are so many different dollar trees in different states that have different things 😊 unfortunately ours doesn't carry alot of food,But you did great for ten peeps wow impressed keep up the savings❤

My husband and kids love when I use Jasmine rice when I make coconut rice for dessert. I call it coconut rice pudding. I cooked Jasmine rice in coconut milk or coconut water then I added sweetener shredded coconut and two bratting eggs. When come to the coconut milk you can use the sweetener coconut milk or unsweetened coconut milk if you use the unsweetened coconut milk you need to add 1/4 cup of sugar bring the rice up to a boil then lower to low then add 1/2 cup of shredded coconut and two bratting eggs and1/8 teaspoon vanilla cook to cream.

What r bratting eggs?

Try lime juice and the dried cilantro in the rice, you could even use the coconut milk instead of water when you make the rice.

YESSS, Dollar Tree Store Is A GREAT Store To Go Grocery Shopping🛒🛍️💯

This is so interesting! About the postage and the invitations, most people also put a stamped return envelope also....

I can't explain why but I love watching you shop

Hello Mrs. Bell if you rinse your rice about 3-4 times until your water comes clear, then add your regular water to the rice and cook it as is. Then when the rice is done rinse it once more put back in the pot. And your rice will NOT be clumsy. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

For invitations: you only need 1 invite with stamp per couple or family, so likely only 75 or 100 BUT likely as someone else has mentioned usually etiquette says to put a stamp on the rsvp. So still not 300 stamps maybe 200. However, now some couples set up a wedding website for rsvps or ask people to message the couple then you could do away with traditional rsvp stamps. Also, it is acceptable to hand out invites in person, so you would be down to stamps only for out of town family and friends.

Heather, our DT has Jennifer's Garden spring rolls in the frozen section, which are wonderful. There are 10 in a package, and the outside is more like phylo dough . The inside has cabbage, carrots, and maybe onions. My hubby and I put them in the toaster oven.

I mix salsa and sour cream for ours

you are very creative in the kitchen 👍👍👍

Thank you for showing me what kind of meals I can do from the dollar tree. I’m trying to save on groceries because we are still working on getting our new build finished.

One of your dollar tree dinners could be chicken pot pie with the can chicken & frozen veggies & can cream chicken soup. You could do chicken casserole with the can chicken cream of mushroom soup frozen green beans & stuffing as well. The shrimp tacos looked pretty good ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I think a squeeze of fresh lime juice after baking them would be great 🤤

Recipe 👀 looks amazing 🎉🎉

That is really cool idea! However , I have $2 trees in my area. Another one of them carries as much stuff as you have in even the 1 that you said was smaller. You guys still have way more like our Dollar Tree frozen section. It's like a little corner and then you've got like a cooler for like dairy stuff, but not very much. And then the rest is canned and whatever and it's hit-or-miss so in our stores, I think I see something that I'm not gonna make like by the way, but might be making in the near future. I grab it because the next time I go in. They took. They typically won't have it. Because I was told one time that they're like all the they get. Whatever is dropped off to them. They don't actually place an order.

In the future just saute your peppers first, add the rest towards the end with the shrimp at the absolute last since they take like no time to cook and overcooked shrimp is tuff. This is a meal you are creating so trial and error is allowed.😊❤

Hello. I have just found your channel and absolutely LOVE it, am going to be binge watching from the beginning. You have a lovely property and awesome family. Much love from Australia ❤❤

I feel so happy to see your video

Another idea for a DT dinner is homemade pizza. I consider myself a bit of a pizza snob and vas VERY skeptical of their pizza crusts, but let me tell you….if you like thin crust pizza, those crusts are REALLY tasty! They have personal sized size crusts (pack of 2) and larger crusts (single pack).m

Looks good but I'm turned off by the Dollar Tree egg rolls. I had them once and spit out the first bite. Love anything mango. Once had a warm mango chutney salad dressing and it was amazing.

The real test is if everyone ate it

Thanks for sharing.

I love everything out hun. Hugs

I really love your dollar tree meals only wish they had some of the items here in Canada we dont have frozen stuff here Thank you for sharing with us 🙏 god bless you and your family you are amazing

You could do evites for the invitations instead of traditional paper invitations to save the stamp cost. 😊❤

Look up Mango Sticky Rice, they sell it here in Chicago at Thai restaurants. You just created a new version I think, I'm not sure how it's made, but I think it would be similar. I bet your rice was really good because mango sticky rice is awesome.

My mother in law made a similar rice in the crockpot one time and it was so absolutely delicious. It was rice, coconut flakes, mango, shredded chicken and idk what else but it was so tasty and flavorful.

They have qeuso cheese sauce in the canned soup section. Dollar Tree is a very big KZread subject, and lots of people do videos on their hauls.😊

Standard postage stamps are $0.68. Tell her to request the FOREVER stamps so that it is postage covered guaranteed even if the price of a stamp goes up before using it. The $0.68 (individual stamp) covers weight of an ounce or less. So stamp accordingly, lol. Oh heck, just lick a dollar and stick it to it, lol. May as well at this point.

For chipotle sauce you can do mayonnaise, plain yogurt, chipotle powder and cumin. Or do smoke paprika and cayenne pepper if you can’t find chipotle

you are flipping to soon the tortillas, have to wait a like 30 seconds from each side :))

🎉🎉🎉🎉 I'm soooo excited to see this!!! I've got 16hr shift ahead of me, and I'm happy to have a little distraction 🎉🎉

Suggestion.... use the coconut milk to cook the rice not just flavor it. So you would add it in the beginning like you would water. Also the more you stir rice the more mushy it becomes. But maybe you you all like that texture.

Hi Heather the sriracha is good and mixed with mayo makes great sauce😊

try adding salt to your water when making rice and i think you should have seasoned the shrimp with the citrus seasoning but great job

Yes you can add anything to make it eatable. 😊

Good one!!!

I need to get some shrimp and make fish tacos now! When you cook dinner from a dollar store haul, yes, you can use ingredients you already have, like sour cream! Shrimp cooks very fast. You can add it to your vegetable mix in the last 8-10 minutes, after veggies are cooked. A good sauce for shrimp (or any fish) tacos is ... mayo, plain yogurt (or sour cream), cumin, onion and garlic powder, cumin, apple cider vinegar, cilantro, salt. You can tone down your bottled jerk sauce by adding honey, or mix some with mayo/sour cream. Good with chicken. Coconut milk is so good in rice! You can substitute some of the water in rice with coconut milk. Now I need to make jamaican rice, too! I think I have some frozen tropical fruit.

Mama Bell, you've done it again. You make me wanna go cook something anything!!😂

#CHRISTINEMALWAYSBELIEVE YESSS, We Agree That Shrimp Taco's MOST DEFINITELY Sound's ABSOLUTELY Delicious🍤🌮 We LOVE Shrimp AND Taco's IN GENERAL🎉

Great video ❤❤

Looks good

You could have made a creamy salsa with the coconut milk, fruit, and some chili flakes ( they have it at DT) with the citrus garlic. Add salt to taste. and that could have gone on your tacos. It would be really good ☺️.

Those look delicious

Next time maybe you could try just draping the tortillas over the racks in your oven and they will take shape, just make sure that they have a large enough gap. May be less time-consuming for your attention and hands. I would have just mixed the black beans in with the filling before stuffing the tacos so that I only had to fill once.

Wonder if you have a cast iron plancha? That would be perfect to heat up the corn tortillas on. 😊❤

The individual packets of Velveeta Cheese that come in original and jalapeño flavors for 1.25/pack are excellent to keep on hand for stirring into any rice or pasta based dishes.

Every time mumma Bell says chippoletay have a drink 😅

You need a really big non stick pan , so you can cook more than one at a time. I’ll keep my eye open for you , I’m a new subscriber and love your family as you give me new ideas for what to cook . ❤️❤️

As always, fun video! How did the family like it? I always appreciate Dad Bell’s opinion. I hope the Florida trip was amazing and happy you all got to spend some quality time with Izzy and Gideon. Love you guys!

Heather, if you ever see it.. try sazon goya. Sautee some bacon and onions, add the sazon goya seasoning and chicken broth to the rice. If you wanna cut cost, just leave out the onions and bacon and cook the rice with broth. You could also add leftover protein like chicken or bell peppers but it really doesn't need it

You must live in aa nice town. I definitely don't and our dollar tree has nothing like any of the stuff I'm seeing at yours. Your dollar tree is better than the family dollar I used to manage down the street from my house.

Please make sure you look at the package on seafood as farm raised isn't nearly as good or healthy but those tacos look yummy 😋.

Just an idea, I’d love to watch you do a “clean with me” where you show us everything and your cleaning schedule ❤

There really isn't any nutritional value in rice it just tastes good😊❤ thos dish looks fantastic!!

What you made looks delicious! We call them "Street Tacos."

All the stamps are Forever Stamps now. So no matter what price you bought them at you can use them. Even if they jack the price. Is crazy the prices they charge and mail seems worse. Both my kid's stamps for their weddings cost more than their invites. It adds up fast.

You should do a breakfast or lunch for your family. Or maybe do a date lunch or dinner date with your husband.

That's cool I love your videos I watch all the time. I have one question though I hope you don't mind me asking it's about Josh is he interested in learning how to drive like all of your other kids?

I'd say if your walmart and dollar tree are close together to shop around. Some stuff you can get cheaper at walmart, some you can't. Also pay attention to the sizes, some of the stuff at dollar tree are small and you might have to get 2 or more when you can get 1 at walmart for cheaper. If they're not close then figure out which would be best overall with gas usage.

Some family's do not know fresh veggies 😢😢😢😢 Love what you cook

The reaction from the jerk sauce was priceless 😅

Crying in €1.25 per stamp in Ireland 😢 Great video as always ❤

I feel like marmalade if they have it? With Sriracha and or mango chuks could make kind of a sause/ salsa..😊
