Jane and Mike, I love when you show us your shopping hauls! Obviously many items available are different for different geographic areas. (Don’t know why folks would not understand that. ). And I love that you take the time to show us the total cost breakdown for each country. It is so interesting! Thank you for sharing your hauls!

Well done for prioritising healthy meals through frugal know how. I've always read your blogs when you were on the UK & now I thoroughly enjoy your youtube videos in Brittany. You both have worked so extremely hard over many years to build this wonderful life you now have. May you both always thrive & continue to have such a wonderful relationship. Frugality is about prioritisation, decisions & executing those decisions - you both excel in this field. We are also extremely frugal so thoroughly enjoy watching others who live as we do. Enjoy the fruits of your labour 😉

We spent a month in the EU,shopping and making our meals. Between Italy, Austria, Germany, France and Spain. In each of there were bargains to be had, and there were some things that were higher in price than the country before, or after that country. In France we had a fabulous vegetable, and fruit stand just outside our Airbnb at great prices, so we ate loads of fresh fruits and vegetables. In Austria we found a small local Turkish grocery store and the prices were great and we tried lots of new to us items. Shop the specials not matter where you shop, plan your menu around deals that you find, don't insist on a menu before finding the sale priced items 😋. Jane you are correct that you can see prices pretty much have gone up everywhere, just learn to shop wisely. Shop sales, special offers, and seasonally to get the best value for your money.

What you were trying to say is the cost of living is higher in other countries. Sort of like Tucker going to Russia and saying that food is cheaper. 134.00 isn't much for some people in a certain country, but, it may be their whole paycheck in another country. I'm in the U.S. and my income this week is 176.00, I have 400.00 worth of bills to pay this month, groceries are to expensive I get my 400.00 put together with a little set aside for savings. Although times are hard right now I refuse to get into my emergency fund, how do I know they won't get worse. I believe people want to think there is sun shine and roses somewhere else, and they we aren't all suffering. They see their neighbors with nice houses and fancy cars and think they are doing good not knowing that they are eating ramen every night and have maxed out their cards. They want to blame the leader's of their countries for high prices, and not see that it's every country going through the same thing. Thanks for the video.

You got some great deals. You explained the difference in prices very well. The average person does not understand that just because what you pay for something is less than what they would in their country it isn't any cheaper for you. I feel ones food costs are very much subject to what one eats and if you buy at full price or wait for a sale. In todays world we really need to be watching for sales and watching for rebates and money back on store cards and credit cards (if you use)

Great haul. Interesting to see the price differences for france and uk. From 2022 to 2023 our food bill was £19 higher, not the £880 more than i saw they were claiming it was .that was because like you we were going after the deals. I like to play the supermarkets at their own game your proving it can be done.

Hello, I'm from Minnesota USA. We also are experiencing a hike In food prices, along with products across the board. My husband and I are retired. We live fairly frugal on our ss. We've been practicing putting up foods and supplies for several years now. I can say that we sleep much better for it. We worked hard to rid ourselves of debt. However, the rise in prices like electric and gas make for a competitive game. I personally like a challenge. It makes rely on my ingenuity. I love your RU-vid.

Jane, it is fascinating to see what you purchase. We also get food from various sources. Food is not cheap anywhere. Every country has varying incomes/cost of living/required expenses. It’s comparing apples to cotton to say someone else has inexpensive food. You are an expert household manager, and it is such a blessing to learn from you. 🌻

How well you did for the money Jane. 😃 Especially such large amounts of meat that will no doubt go a long way. Meat here in the UK is so expensive now. Also olive oil has gone ridiculous.

On the frugal vlogs from the UK I watch, I'm amazed by how much cheaper some of the food is there. The cauliflowers are really good at the moment aren't they? Our little local Carrefour contact, not usually a source of bargains, has had some dear little ones for €1.20 - I find it a struggle to get through a big one - with plenty of good leaves on too! Baked beans (those U ones aren't bad at all) freeze well, I've discovered. Still got lamb chops in the freezer from a trip up to the Bay of Mont St Michel last year, pré-salé ones from a little butchers in Cherrueix, a coastal village there. Only lamb we buy and eat here these days, a bit pricey but we eke them out and savour every mouthful. Roll on Easter! Blé noir, often called sarrasin these days, is buckwheat. Always enjoy your shopping hauls!

I was using the " flashfood " app here in Canada but you had to pick up the food that day, so I was going several times a week and realized the cost of bus fare and time was not worth it in the end. I now try to stock up on sale items and cook meals cheaply as possible. Today I made 4 mince and onion pies in small tins to have 2 meals out of them, made a huge salad and we eat that for lunch every day. I have noticed that my recipes do cost more now with inflation, eg butter and eggs, I was paying $2.99 for butter it's now $5.00 when on sale, if not $6.50. Some of my dessert recipes call for a pound of butter { 2 cups ) so I'm not making them as often.

Thank you Jane and Mike so much for inspiring me everytime you put out a video. I do need it to stay on track. A question Jane, do you keep bones to make gelatine for the dogs? I do, our GSD has HD and he's still young (3 years) and I'll use my slowcooker(s) to make the gelatine and I'll freeze it and use it in his food to give him some extra gelatine so his body can use it where it's needed. Your dogs are small and I don't think they have issues but alas it's my couriosity ;-) Take care and stay safe, greetings from the Netherlands, Vleer xo

Great shopping! Would you share how to prepare the lamb with mint sauce? All the best from Spain 😊
@FrugalQueeninFrance
@FrugalQueeninFrance 8 месяцев назад
It's slow roasted and then served with mint sauce afterwards. Chop the fresh mint very finely and steep in sweetened vinegar with sugar.

The lamb we’re able to get occasionally costs about 10.00 per pound. (Is that over 20.00 per kilo?) I don’t remember where it comes from but i think it’s imported, too. My husband loves the chops or i wouldn’t buy them. (I’m vegetarian) Fabulous haul! That will last quite awhile.

Great deal on the lamb. We only get the Australian lamb here in the USA but I don’t like the flavor of it-it’s too strong for me. I’m always excited when I see USA lamb and tend to buy it at any price.

Lamb is way to expensive here in New Zealand we have to pay export prices so it’s a meat we can’t afford , a leg of lamb is $50 or more depending on size

You have mentioned that watching the ads helps your income. Does it matter to your income if your viewers let the ads role before the video, after the video, or during the video? In other words, do you make more or less depending on when the ad roles?
