Pandemic Grocery Haul - Once-A-Month Shopping - LARGE Family 

Do I have kids? No Do I love watching y’all buy food for 10 kids? YES 😂💗

Bro when I watch ppl shopping its soooooo theraupatic for me AM I THE ONLY ONE?

It’s crazy that people would be mad at you for your shopping trips. You’re buying food for 12 people for a month, not like some people who bought toilet paper to last them for years 🤦🏻‍♀️ This is not hoarding, it’s a necessary shopping trip. I love watching these videos!

“If anything we’re doing makes you feel emotional...” that’s the most polite way of saying mind your beeswax I’ve ever heard! Going to be using it! 😄

Why do I love to watch this content? I live alone. :D But LOVE this family.

A tip for holding all those groceries in the car...we use large laundry baskets. You can get 5 or 6 and they stack in one another. They are light weight sturdy and strong. They make carrying them in the house easy too.

I can't imagine having 10 kids. I'd love to but I'm not organized enough. I have 2 and my life's a mess lol. 10 kids a house and a career. You really are superwoman

The man knows how to load a cart.

I wish you didn't have to explain or feel the need to defend yourself when buying food for your family. It just gets ridiculous at some point. I live for y'alls grocery hauls!

There was a mom in the news. She had a big family like yours and she hang a sign on her card saying something like: “I’m not hoarding, I have a family of 12”. 😃

Solo earned my full respect at 5:50 when he started arranging the food nicely in the cart👌. Its a pet peeve of mine when people throw in food in a disorderly manner😣

Best advice I heard was always buy your butter unsalted because there’s no industry standard how much salt they can throw in there and with unsalted you can add to your liking

"Everything's bad for you" I so agree Solo! Pick your poison and enjoy it! Lol 😁 Happy Saturday!

When you get home empty you mushrooms into a paper bag in your refrigerator and they will last 3x longer.

I started keeping a laundry basket in the back of my car. Load the groceries (or curbside pickup food) and it makes it so easy for my husband to carry it into the house. I wipe everything down with a disinfectant wipe before putting it in the pantry.

“Like when you forget to make dinner” 😂😂😂

It makes my heart sad to see you & your husband feel guilty that you have to buy a lot of food - remember you have a BIG family to feed and you shouldn't be worrying about what other people think and if they give you certain looks and their negative remarks. . . The LORD knows and He sees what you need. God bless your beautiful family and thank you & your husband for all that you do for our Heavenly Father!! =) XOXOX

I'm dreading having to carry all that in and put it away.... Even though it's not even my stuff 😂

Try Asian markets for rice. They’ve been stocked up through this whole pandemic.

This is my 1st time leaving a comment on anyone's channel. Really enjoy watching your family. Wanted to say to you that you don't owe anyone an explanation to why you buy what you buy and how much. You and your husband seem to be great parents of beautiful children. Please don't worry about what others my think. God bless.

At least I’m not the only person who arranges my cart when shopping. I can’t stand when hubby just throws stuff in and on top of stuff

The pasta crumbles are for soup. Traditionally they’re put into like a chicken of beef soup. The description on the package essentially translates to pasta for soup. I’m Balkan and my mom cooks soup with this a lot.

It’s wonderful that your kids eat such a great variety of fruits and veggies!

“We all have our definition of emergency.” So true! We never ate basmati rice until I started watching your vlogs. We love it, especially the brown basmati from Aldi.

I’m a single 23 year old who lives alone, but I have adopted your ‘emergency Mac and cheese’ idea. Starving with no energy to cook? Invited a friend over and want something easy to share? Need a bedtime snack? Mac and cheese is the answer!!

Don’t ever apologize! If someone gets “emotional” about how you shop, they should count their blessings that, that is all they have to worry about. 😂 👍🏻 You and Solo are raising a beautiful tribe! ❤️

Please don’t apologize for your shopping! It’s no one’s business except for you & Solo. Love watching your vlogs.

I love the way all you have to do is point and Solo goes and picks it up! He's a good one :)

Solo's arranging things in the cart is just like my granddaughter. So funny.

I will say, as a Sam’s Club employee that I appreciate when customers wear them. I am protecting my customers by wearing my mask all day and I wish customers felt the same about protecting me from their germs. I have children I am trying to keep safe at home too. The last thing I want to do is bring it home to them. I live in Nebraska too, and realize it isn’t a requirement, but definitely a suggestion. I love you guys, but please think of those of us who have to be exposed to hundreds of people a day so we can continue to feed our families.

Do I plan on ever having 10 kids? No. Pregnancy was the worst thing I’ve ever gone through. But do y’all inspire me every single video as a parent? Yes! Love y’all!

I was reading the comments and i seen that you get looks and judged at times when youre shopping. I understand. Even feeding 8, you need A LOT. I cant express how often i have said *i have 6 kids and my hubs and I*...

I love the attitude you have of you do you do, I’ll do me. It’s relaxing to have someone just living life. We don’t have to live the same way to enjoy the videos

I'm not gonna lie I got "emotional" during your shopping. Not being able to get enough for your family and having to explain your family size so others wouldn't be rude. I love the meal preps.

I'm not even mad that you're buying this much food, I'm just so darn impressed that you manage to feed such a large family so well. Seriously, so much respect for both of you!

Solo is a man after my heart. The way he puts stuff in the cart.

Hey! :) I'm from Hungary and sour dough pasta crumbs is a traditional food here, we call it "tarhonya". We usually make a beef/chicken stew base and mix the cooked crumbs in :)

I have to say, I think it was the sweetest moment when you reminded others that isolation is different all around the world. We are in phase 1 of “renew” and we have a lot of restrictions.i think your consideration was so heartfelt.❤️

I just stumbled on your channel. We're a family of 6 and we're homesteaders / preppers / super frugal people. I feed all 6 of us for less than $100 every 2 months, BUT we do a lot of work to be that self-sufficient on top of it. I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE learning how other people live! I love to see what you guys are shopping for. I'm shocked that people would give you a hard time for ANYTHING. I'm just super impressed by you and your lovely family! I love how organized you are. Meal planning helps so much; I know it's saved my butt for sure! Thank you for sharing your life with all us youtubers. I have subscribed to your channel. Have a blessed day!

No one can say you do not love your kids! Food is love. Blessings!

Every time I watch your food hauls I end up pausing it at least three times to add food items to my grocery list that you remind me I need. Today was paper plates, fruit and cereal 😂😊

As a European I’m just amazed with the size of some of the packages in American stores. I mean, just the size of the milk bottles 🙀

Wanted to let you know that I put cottage cheese and a fruit cup...without the cup on a lightly toasted bagel, and it was very good. I ate it this morning. (5/4/20). I really like the brioche bagels from Aldi. I hope you are all doing well. Stay safe and see you on Sunday (RU-vid) for Sunday service.

"MOMMY WATER " 💖 you all are adorable. Just love your family.

Sarah, I have to say that it upsets me that people judge you and your family. You and your family have been and will continue to be in my prayers! I think people are just jealous or envious. Please don't be discouraged. You and your family are a blessing!!!

Hello, I'm from Croatia little country from Balkan and as far as I can see this pasta that you asked about is written on language from Balkan... I'm not sure which one but it may Croatian or Serbian... In this part of world we love to cook and eat clear vegetable or meat soup made from some kind od meat it can be veal, beef, chicken it your choice... Recipe for the soup is that we put cold water in the pot and that add some carrots, potatoes, onions, celery and meat that you choose, add some salt and our mix of season that we called "Vegeta" (it's very nice you should try, we put it on everything) and let that cook on the low heat for 3 hours, once its all cooked we strained liquid in another pot and put that on boil when water boils we put that pasta in, turn the heat on low and cooked that for about 10 minutes and thats it you have nice soup and meat that we serve with some salad... I really don't know if you can use that pasta on some other way but for soups is great.. I'm hoping that I helped you, greetings from Croatia...

I love when your husband goes shopping, he’s a so funny. Love your website.

I started getting hungry watching you grocery shop, 😁💕, that was fun to watch you and solo shopping together!

Can you make a video of you putting everything away? I feel like that would be so fun to watch! Hope you guys are staying safe!

We're all spending more because we're buying what we can find and in small portions. Hopefully it gets better soon because I'm spending $80-$100 dollars over my budget. Stay safe.

I so enjoy watching you and your family! You are so Blessed! Thanks for sharing your life with all of us! 😇

“Tarhana” is traditional Bosnian pasta for soups. You should try it in a chicken soup with vegetables :) (and it’s only meant for soups)

That whole shopping trip looks exhausting 😃

Good morning. I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses calendars to do things like you do. It's way easier to have things written down, keeps you from compulsive buying. Thank you for sharing your lives with us. Blessings to you and your family.

A man after my heart. Love the way he is putting food in the cart. So neatly.

Oh my gosh I love the massive food shopping hauls. Why is it so satisfying?

Here in Maryland to go into a store or anywhere we must wear a face mask. Cloth face masks are allowed. They will refuse you if you don’t wear them. How crazy that every state is so different.

18:57 tarhanas are noodles for soup, you have to cook it for like 10 minuts and it tastes good😊 Btw Thats from Croatia🇭🇷 small Country in Europe greetings from Croatia 👋🏻

I really appreciate how you think of the viewers, and I feel really happy to watch you buy for you and the kids, it sends the sense of family.

Thank you for sharing. Love it. Love your monthly meal plan. You're awesome!!!!

Farmhouse on Boone has tons of sourdough tips and recipes on both her blog and youtube!

I lived the first weeks of this virus in Spain and the rest in Norway. Spain, Tenerife(lived there the last 4 years)had a strict lockdown, kids could not move outside ,you could only go to the shop or pharmacy, no walks ,no school, grocery shops empty...you need to use a mask,gloves . We came to Norway(my birthplace) to stay with my parents. We had 14 days of quarantine, then we could go for walks, kids play outside , adviced to keep 2 meters distance with other people, shops are full of groceries, there are hand sanitizers at all shops to use when you enter and leave the shop. Food got CHEAPER as the big grocery shop owners Said they could handle putting the prices down as they are selling alot now, to help the people in this difficult economic situation we are in .schools closed but they are now open again. Spain has been hit much harder then Norway, there is only 210 deaths here... I feel bad you need to explain why you did not use a mask, this is different from place to place, and having the experience from living with this in 2 different countries that has had different ways of dealing with it. A mask does not make it so much safer even though it might make you feel like it. Anyway, thanks for sharing Sarah and Solo👍

I’ve been meaning to tell you how much I love the new family portrait, just beautiful!

Your preplanning is amazing. I love watching you guys shop.

I love Solo organizing the groceries in the basket 😂❤

You can take the top of your pineapple, and grow that, too! And your avocado pits, carrots (if you buy them with the tops), and potatoes,too. I keep meaning to tell you, I LOVE the family photograph, in your intro!💖

The organization it takes to make a detailed meal calendar and stick to it is one of my new goals.

I love the way you meal plan!! I have a family of 5 that includes, 1 teenager, 1 preteen, and a toddler, and you inspire me so much in my own home.

I live in Erie PA, many stores here having shopping hours for the elderly from 6-8 AM. We old folks get up at around 6 to use the BR then go back to sleep. Not to the grocery store 🤣🤣🤣

I live in the area where we are 3rd in the nation for Covid19. While the rest of our state is opening up more, Our county is staying on strong quarentine still. Pray for us. Not worried about us so much as everyone else.

Wow. If only I could be as organized as you are with your family grocery shopping. I love watching in amazement.

Sarah, I love your little snappy attitude lately. Good for you! You make me smile.

I love the sarcasm and connection between y’all! 😂😂😂

Yesterday after work I had to go run around and ended up going to 4 different stores to find almost everything we needed. It really is a mission during this pandemic. My heart goes out to everyone during this time ❤️

I love when you all shop, I get ideas for my kids.

Great video. Thank you. Always makes my day when I see your videos pop up in my notifications.

Lovely content about grocery haul. Whoever is reading this and going through very hard times, depression, loneliness and financial issues. You will raise up and win

I really like it when you and Solo vlog in the stores vs showing what you bought when you get home. It's just interesting to see what's available in your area. Also how you shop for your large family. I really enjoy your vlogs!

I love watching your channel. You have an amazing family and you all seem so down to earth. I live in the UK but also shop at Aldi and love it. I love watching your shopping haul. Take care and keep safe

Love you guys! What a beautiful blessing with all your family

Take asparagus out of bag and stand in glass or deep container with 1/2”-1"water and put in fridge.... Keeps weeks

Have you guys ever thought about growing veggies and getting fruit trees? Starting a Garden?

I'm just started watching you and your husband. Love to see that he's helping you shop, other men's would go crazy because they are not patient enough to do this. Your husband is a keeper. Will continue to watch your videos 😊

Toast with applesauce was my grandma's favorite breakfast with cinnamon sprinkled on the top. Have a safe and healthy week.

I had jeans with holes and my dad asked me what happened, Mayra? I asked him what do you mean? He says, did you fall? You have holes in your pants. 😂😂😂

I really like how you set up your monthly menu plan! So simple, yet so detailed. Thank you for sharing that part of the planning. :)

Same here. Just me and my husband and I love watching these videos. Sarah and Solo have great kids, she is a great mom, he's a great father and they are decent and hard working. I also love moms who encourage their kids - she's always saying "great job!" and they honor God with their lives. This is better than watching a lot of things on tv. - Lots of love from Jamaica

I love that you cook so healthy for your large family! You concentrate on healthy veggies and proteins. :) Love your Kenyan recipes.

Solo was very specific on arranging the shopping cart

Love how organized you are with shopping and scheduling meals.

People need to do and follow what they feel is right for them. I am so tired of feeling we aren’t adult enough to make decisions. You guys are a lovely family. Your children are great I love to watch the kids play together and such good manners they have been taught.

I really enjoy when you bring the camera along and film im the store thanks for doing it again

I love to see how Solo organize the trolly, perfect and fits alot 😁

We love Azure Standard for flour, beans, oats, nuts, jugs of oil, and household cleaning supplies.

Beautiful Family! Thanks for the motivation.

I love to watch when you and Solo shop together you have such a great family

Cream cheese and jam is good together like cheesecake

I love watching y’all together. Your love story is so sweet and it’s so easy to see how much you love each other by the way you interact while doing normal things.

Watching this again to refresh my memory on menu planning.🥰

This is my first time on your channel and its so fascinating to see how much food you purchased, and how large your family is! I absolutely love it💚
