If you haven't tried FORJAR lids, you really need to. I. LOVE. THEM. Their prices are very competitive & I haven't had a single lid issue with the ones I've used and have definitely had lid failures with Ball in the last year or so. It's 9/25/22 and I got a notification that their prices were going to have to go up some in the next few days. I'm sharing a 1000 lid order with a friend - that gives us each 250 of wide & 250 regular size. The increase is set to happen on 10/1/22 so now is a good time to try them! I won't be using Ball lids at all from here on out. The ones I have already used are being repurchased for fridge & dry, vacuum sealing. Happy canning!

Great haul. I have so much on my list for this weekend. I hope my money holds out. We've had another grocery increase recently.

We have stepped up our efforts. We feel it is very possible things are being propped up for the midterms. Things could go downhill rapidly after that.

WOW! I am going to have to re-watch this and make a list! LOL Great haul and some great prices. I rarely, if ever see food on clearance at my Walmart. Thanks for all that you do to help us to be prepared. I can't get the emoji to show.

I've gotten lucky with food clearance at our Walmart but it's hit and miss! Sometimes it's just a mass of personal care items and the like. If I have time when it's stuff like that I'll go through and scan things with the Walmart app and my Ibotta app. Sometimes things come up cheaper than what they're marked, and I can sometimes find Ibotta Rebates for them that make them even cheaper or even free/money makers. I wish I had more time to do that!

I'd love to see some videos on how you use the Thrive Life stuff!

I should have also mentioned the vacuum seal bags from Costco (their own brand) are fantastic & better still they are currently almost half the price of the name brand bags & rolls.

Oh, my goodness, have you ever been busy canning! What a bounty you have to set back. Your hauls are always awesome, Jara, and filled with such fabulous tips. 🍁

What a great haul, canning supply and glad the story time turned out much better than it could have. Thank you for adding all the links

As for the crinkle cutter, as long as it is cleaned well I would use it for both. However, cutting the wax may dull it faster so go ahead and get it backup.

Lots of great items today. Thanks for all the ideas.

Nice haul. You do such a great job explaining everything. I did get my order on the 8th like you said. I will be reordering soon.🍁

Thanks for the reminder on the Thrive coupon. My newest (and hopefully last) grandbaby is now starting to eat foods so the squash, broccoli, applesauce and a few others are perfect preps for her. I was able to add a second shipment this month as the Lord ALWAYS provides and my Etsy shop is doing incredibly well. I am determined to pay off my van almost a year and a half early and this month I slapped down a MAJOR payment on it. Soooo very thankful and Blessed!! I keep my extra oxygen absorbers in a mason jar but I have a brake bleeder and the jar toppers that I suck the air out of the jars before storing. LOVE that thing!!

Coriander seeds come from the same plant as cilantro. I love seeing your preps! ❤

Hi Jara! Wow watermelon jelly?? 🍉 I don't think I ever seen watermelon jelly but cool. I been prepping tomatoes, pickles and pepper 🌶 😋 👍🍁🍁🍂🍂🍁 I love fall tooo.. We use to make bonfires and make food and drinks and seat in ft of the fire and talk.. 🔥🔥 Awesome video Jara!!

First of all, I love your musical introduction. I will continue to stack as far as my money will allow me. Thanks for your Advice.

Awesome haul! I'm going to watch it again and take notes LOL (I'm too snuggled in to get a pen). Another use for the Red Hots 🔥 is to add some to a cup of hot apple 🍎 cider (a shot of Fireball works, too 😉). I love the idea of the Applesauce Muffin Mix in a jar. Have you posted the recipe somewhere? Could store bought or homemade Applesauce be used? Sorry for so many questions, but you inspire me to try to get my preps ready and organized. Thanks again for all that you do.

So much great info! 🍁🍂

Thrive life peas are awesome ! I keep the peas and corn on my shelf for ramen ! My kids are loving that I’m also a Consultant! The mashed potatoes are amazing and the instant milk is phenomenal! I’ve been stocking up on small bags of pasta to make my own rice a roni! It’s way cheaper ! The bags are 0.44 cents to 56 cents a bag ! Add your own broth or water and herbed butter and bam!

🍁 🍁 🍁 OMG! That watermelon jelly looks sooo good. I can only imagine what it tastes like. Now my mouth is watering 😍 My mom went to the store Friday hoping to get a watermelon. There were none, only pumpkins. So disappointed..😞

You really need to purchase a home freeze dryer. I have one and can do all these things at home plus so much more. Like you talked about your pumpkin cranberry bread. I could make that and freeze dry it up. It would give you your beef and shrimp back as well.

With inflation we are all dealing with less extra money. If all you can manage is $15 a month then maximize what you can get. Rice, raman and beans are an excellent supplement to whatever you may be able to get at the grocery. In my area, Walmart has all the basic canned veggies, including various beans, for no more than $.78 a can, some less. Dried beans and rice are also very cheap. Do what you can and you'll be better off later.

I want docking chargers. We haven't got Walmart

I do hope you realize that most people do not have the money to just keep buying. Especially more costly items. Lots of rice and beans will be in the stockpile of the majority.

How many preppers have their supplies insured?

I’ve recently began to think that people who prepare need to spread their stuff around in different buildings etc. less apt to lose everything

Jara, if you open say a meat can from thrive or azure, then what is the shelf life for that opened can?

@wickedprepared

Жыл бұрын

Most of the freeze-dried meats have a shelf life of one year once opened. The one exception I can think of is the pulled pork and that is only 3 weeks after opened. If I don't use my pulled pork immediately in meals in a jar with oxygen absorbers, then I'll put my unused portion in the freezer to prolong it. Azure is a little different they don't have much for freeze dried foods. They do sell lots of meats but they're fresh/frozen meats. I get a lot of bulk dry foods there and I do repackage them because their packaging is not really long term packaging like Thrive's cans.

I started my pantry storage last yr.but I don't have a place to keep items that need to be cold storaged. Which in i s my biggiest problem.i intend to start growing veggies, tomatoes peppers, zucchini & eggplant which need to jared or canned also want to can meats.... Does anyone have a suggestion were or how to store the cold storage items??

@wickedprepared

Жыл бұрын

Hi Boss Lady! By cold storage do you mean refrigerated items or more like root cellar type items like potatoes and rutabaga? What we do is store shelf stable versions of most of these items if we can. We keep shelf stable cartons of milk for short term, and a couple of powdered brands we prefer. We have powdered versions of sour cream, heavy cream, butter, etc. A lot of "rebel" canners can milk, cream and butter too, if that's something you're comfortable with, or you can purchase commercially canned versions of many of these as well. Meats and vegetables can be canned or freeze dried for long term storage at room temperature. This can be done at home or purchased commercially. If you dont already know how to can or freeze dry at home, there are tons of helpful videos out there and once you get started its pretty fun and simple! Honestly we do a mix of all these things. I find it's best to diversify when it comes to your food storage. And I definitely recommend trying and using everything you get for your food storage, that way you make sure you like it and are comfortable using it AND things stay rotated rather than just sitting there. You may find you prefer certain brands or forms of things. Growing a garden will be a great addition for you, and while you're waiting for gardening season maybe you could try growing sprouts or Microgreens which is done indoors in a short amount of time. Sounds like you're doing great, keep on going! ❤️

Looks like there's food for life there the rest of her life!

🍁Thanks....Question , Appalachias Homestead with Patara says do not stack your canning jars because they can break the seal. I am no expert but have canned some. What are your thoughts on stacking cause I have your issue as well and that is space..I don't know myself who is right or wrong or if you both are. Just wanted to share / bounce that off of you and get your take on it. I learned some good stuff today so thanks again.

You can not stack jars of home canned items. You can go two high if there is heavy cardboard in between them. I have canned for forty years. If you stack one jar on top of the other and the seal is broken it can cause a false seal. Follow the USDA guidelines. So important. I have never had a jar go bad. I have had two jars in forty years that didn't seal after canning but other then that no problems.

Cumin and coriander are two different things lol
