Hi guys, welcome back to my channel. In today's video, I thought I would let the boys do the
weekly food shop. We thought this would be a bit of a twist on a traditional grocery
haul, and we have seen a few other channels do this on YouTube and it looks like so much
fun. So, I'm hoping the boys are going to be sensible
because we actually have to live off of this food for the week. But yeah, they need to
think about breakfast, snacks, dinner, lunch, all of it. So we are going to get a trolley
and let them loose in the supermarket. We've got a trolley with Jackson. With the
boys, “Are you going to be sensible?”
No.
Is that your favorite?
This is for the weekend when we have beans and cheese on toast.
You like beans and cheese on toast, don't you? So should we get one of those? How many
cans is that? Alright, first item is going in. We got some
beans. That's not too bad!
Right, see what happens.
Hey there, are you going to get nice, healthy food? Oh, what's that?
Breakfast.
Toy Story? [crosstalk 00:01:06] Toy Story, what is it?
Toy Story.
Is it Rice Krispies?
Yeah.
What's going on here?
Bagels.
Are they your favorite in the morning?
Yeah.
[crosstalk 00:01:23] Get some bagels!
Frasier's found the bread that we actually have.
Don't actually do that with bread, Mate. Uh, how's the shopping going?
Really good! He smacked me on the head.
I haven't chosen anything so far.
That's good. That's good.
[inaudible 00:01:44] Toy Story.
They got Toy Story in the [inaudible 00:01:45]. That's the main thing. [crosstalk 00:01:49].
Keep distracting him Jackson, keep distracting him.
Frasier's not as distracted. Uh oh. Uh oh.
We got [inaudible 00:02:06] haven't we? Have we got-
What did you choose? [crosstalk 00:02:08]
Jackson wants some Bear Yo Yos.
In the trolley.
In there.
Back to playing with that, that's good. Found in the Doritos, which I'd thought you'd
get, you found a pack of Oreos. Did you plant them there? [crosstalk 00:02:25]
That's good, they're arguing about not getting cookies.
Original. Want some grapes?
That looks like a butt, a strawberry butt.
A strawberry butt. Which ones look like they could last a few days?
No, no.
Wow, that's a lot of carrots, bub.
Carrots going in. What you getting, Bubs? Some broccoli, I like
that, very nice thank you. Yeah, corn on the cob is good isn't it, Bub?
You put butter on it.
Yeah. Oh, I'm liking all the veggies. Red pepper? Yeah maybe, how many? Two. Yellow,
wow!
[inaudible 00:03:26]
It's okay. Caleb, do you think we really need that?
Why don't you go back and [crosstalk 00:03:39]
Have you got pizza?
Pick up a pie, see if there's a deal if you get more than one? [crosstalk 00:03:44]
Is there a deal? Oh, two pizzas!
One's for daddy and one's for me.
Oh lovely
Frasier knows that those [inaudible 00:03:53]are my favorite.
That's good.
He noticed.
[inaudible 00:03:58]. Look at this.
You know that's my favorite. Watermelon? Jackson loves that, we never buy
that.
Watermelon.
Now put it in gently, don't squish anything.
Let's get it. Oh, well done. Very good Caleb.
Oh look what Fraiser's found.
What have you got there? You just put some grapefruit up your top.
[inaudible 00:04:22].
[inaudible 00:04:31]
Thank you, oh gosh. Right. Oh, what about some krispies?
Yeah, I said that.
What's your favorite krispie?
My favorite krispies are.
Salt and vinegar. Is that salt and vinegar? Yep.
Cause he's always wanted fortune cookie.
What we doing down here? Obviously trying to find fortune cookies.
That really important part of our weekly shop. Feed a family of five on fortune cookies.
We might win something.
Oh, Caleb what have you found?
What is that?
Just when we said there's no food for mummy and daddy, what have you found?
Jiffy Pop.
What flavor is it?
Butter.
You've been looking for that, haven't you?
[inaudible 00:05:20]
I had it in America.
And they've got it in the American section.
They don't do butter popcorn, do they? Usually.
No.
It's seventeen pounds for one piece of popcorn.
Goujons.
Show us. Do you like them?
Yep.
Good choice. What'd you get Caleb?
A strawberry smoothie, you have that in the morning.
Just going to sneak these in. There's no kid that's going to choose eggs.
What you got?
[inaudible 00:05:51].
Uh oh, we're bringing back all the bad habits.
What'd you think of that? He's trying, Fraiser's salt and vinegar crisps he just bought.
Is it too strong? So, we're all done shopping and now we're
gonna guess what the bill was. So what do you think boys, how much money did we just
spend?
One hundred and thirty pounds.
Fraiser's saying one hundred and thirty, Caleb?
[inaudible 00:06:33]
One hundred and fifty.
One hundred and fifty from Caleb. Jack Jack, what do you think? What number?
[inaudible 00:06:42]
We actually heard how much.
I didn't.
Oh, did you not?
No.
Okay, okay.
I recon seventy-three pounds, sixty five. Roughly.
And what was it?
Oh, seventy-three, sixty five. Get in.
That's not too bad. So let's go home now and see what we actually got for that amount of
money.
I was the closest.
And how we're going to live of off that for a week.
How we're going to survive.
We just got home and I've laid everything out to show you, properly, what the boys chose.
They're actually up in the bath now. We got back so late, we were having so much fun in
there, that it's actually now seven o'clock. So they are upstairs, having a bath. So, I
will quickly run through. I know you saw quite a few of the things while we were buying them,
but I think I'll just show you everything. So, this is everything, laid out on our counter.
So, I'll just run through what we got, I think I'll start out over here, cause this is the
first thing they picked up. As soon as we ran in, they just shouted, "Toy Story.”
And grabbed it. And I was like ,"do you even know what this is?” And they were like,
“No.” But it looks like it is Toy Story rise krispies, I think. But I'm fine with
that, I'm fine with rice Krispies. So, that's fine. This one though is Nesquik. Which they've
never had before, I do let the boys have chocolate for breakfast or a bit of chocolate with breakfast
on a Sunday. So, this will definitely have to be a Sunday morning breakfast. So, yeah
we got that. They also bought milk and as some of you will know we have a milk service,
so we get it delivered three times a week. So, we probably didn't need this. But they
do drink a lot of milk so I think as soon as they saw it they were like, “We're gonna
need that.” So they got that. They also got some breaded chicken goujons because they
probably do have that once every two weeks and they really love goujons.
And they also got some chipolatas, that is they favorite type of sausage. Then you might
of seen Matt sneak some eggs in because Matt has eggs every morning for breakfast. So,
he grabbed them. They also got some Actimel, we did use to buy Actimel. I kind of stopped
for a bit because I was thinking it was filling them up before breakfast but they love them,
so they got a whole pack of them. They also bought an innocent seriously strawberry smoothing.
I normally make smoothies at home, Caleb loves them, So, yeah. They got the strawberries
and banana one. So, they can have a little it of that with breakfast. They also got some
wholemeal bread, this is the one we normally get so it was interesting to see that they
did just buy a lot of the brands that I buy anyway. Interesting from a marketing prospective,
that they just sort of bought what they knew because we also buy these all the time.
These are the Warburtons thin bagels, Caleb really likes these with cream cheese in the
morning. Then the boys also actually chose some veggies, which I was pretty pleased about.
They love corn on the cob because it's nice and sweet and they can have butter on it.
They also love carrots cause they're nice and sweet and red peppers is probably their
favorite veggie. Like they would eat that all the time, if they could. And then they
did get some broccoli which I was also really pleased about because it's such a battle to
get them to eat it. Obviously being children they had no look at like use by dates and
this broccoli does look a bit brown, I would not have chose this one and I wouldn't have
chose one in the plastic. So, that was interesting but yeah don't know if you can see it's kind
of maybe going off a little bit already so I think we're going to have to eat that like
tomorrow. Then in terms of fruit, Caleb grabbed this huge watermelon and it made me feel bad
cause I never buy watermelon because it's one of those fruits that like I'll cut up
a bit and then I'll just feel like I waste it.
But I'm determined for them to eat it so I'm going to cut it all up, put it into Tupperware
tonight and then have it for their breakfast tomorrow. So, yeah that should be really,
really nice. They also got some peppered grape. They also got four grapefruit, Matt has grapefruit
every morning but also Caleb really likes red grapefruit now, with a little bit of sugar
on top. So he wanted that. They also got some strawberries for Jackson, that's what they
said. We also got some rice cause that's like Fraiser's favorite side dish, with meat or
anything he really loves rice with soy sauce. Now onto snacks, they chose some of the suckies.
I do normally get this for the boys, it's just whole milk yogurt and fruit. And they
actually ate two of them, just while we were going around, Caleb had one, Jackson had one.
So, I've only got two left and I think I'm going to use it for the boys snacks tomorrow
for school. They also got these, which we've never had before. Salt and vinegar twirls
and they've literally eaten nearly all of them on the way round. So, yeah I have actually
tried a few though and they so [inaudible 00:11:36] really, really good. First time
I've ever had them. Then they've also chose popcorn, we normally get Metcalfe's anyway
so again they sort of chose one that they know. Then Fraiser was like, “These are
my favorite crisps ever.” They serve them at school sometimes so it's a salt and vinegar
crisps. Then they got Pombears for Jackson. They got Snack a Jacks in salt and vinegar.
I was like, “I normally buy you guys caramel.” And they were like, “Nope, we want salt
and vinegar this time.” Then they also got these little fruit bowl, raspberry yogurt
flakes. Caleb and Jackson still really like these. Then they also got some pizza, I guess
that could do for like a night this week and they even got Matt's favorite one there. And
then like this random little tiny one that Caleb grabbed, Hardy Food Company.
Oh, also for snacks they got these big breadsticks, I normally buy the baby breadsticks still
so maybe I need to stop doing that. But yeah they chose these big ones and then hummus,
my boys just love hummus so much. Now onto sweets they got a random pack of
original Oreos, some fruit winders. I haven't bought these before but I think they've had
them before at friends houses so they were like we're having those. I do normally buy
the bear yo yos, Jackson loves them and I literally fob them off as like pudding to
him. He really likes them and they're just fruit. They also chose some of these Mr Freeze,
freeze pops. Which actually I was pretty pleased about, they're a nice like small size. So,
I'm going to freeze those and they can have them throughout the summer. Then you would
have seen they chose Jiffy Pop from the American section cause they had that in America. And
then they chose quite a bit of chocolate, they chose ten dairy milk bars but they are
quite small inside so I was like maybe they can have them as a treat. They also chose
four caramel bars. They chose three curly wurlys but obviously two are now gone and
they chose three gingerbread men. Unfortunately one is broken. And then the last thing was,
I was like, “Oh boy's can we please buy some Unstoppables.” Because I've run out
and Fraiser was like, “No this isn't a cleaning shop this is a food shop.”
And then Caleb felt sorry for me so he chose this one. It's one of my favorites, it's the
lavish scent. So, we got that as well. So that is everything the boy's chose for our
weekly food shop, I did point out to them that they didn't actually get that many dinners
or lunches. So I think this week I'll be living off of goujons, sausages and maybe an omelet
as well. But it was actually really interesting I think it was educational for them as well.
I thought they were going to go completely crazy with that trolley, when I gave them
a trolley and I was like chose what you want. I expected them to get so many sweets but
actually they were quite sensible, we went down the fruit isle, they chose loads. They
went down the veggie isle, they chose loads and it's really interesting cause they chose
so many brands that I do buy. So it is like monkey see monkey do. Obviously they chose
quite a few crisps, yeah so many crisps, so many cookies, chocolate as well. But overall
it was pretty fun. Obviously I wouldn't do this every week, I just thought this would
be an interesting video and I hope you guys liked it. Thanks so much for watching and
I'll see you in my next one, bye guys.
