Thanks for all the congrats 🎉 ❤
apply for calfresh as a student free groceries !! i did it as a student
Congratulations it's good to be in college
My best advice for budgeting is sticking with your list. Make a hand written list. If possible, meal prep.
This will help you plan for what you need. You can even lookup pricing on the store's website. Have your list in front of you the entire time you shop. Check off each item and write the price next to it. Once you have every item on the list, add up the total. If you are over, find a cheaper alternative for something in your basket. If not available, you have to choose what item to remove. This is a non-negotiable if you are sticking to your budget. Its better to do this before you get to checkout. If you are below budget, you can get additional "wants", but do not exceed budget. This really helped me when I was in college.
Very good advice for her on budgeting🤗👍
will do 😂 🤭
Excellent advice 🥰💯
Gotta know good deals and sales and not just pick up pricey items cause its good or a craving coupons are great way to save for you as a college student
Don't be afraid to use coupons and any store discounts or rewards card
Amyah, great work on the grocery shopping! Let's focus on stocking up on pantry staples this month and then just add fresh meats and veggies weekly. You're doing awesome, keep it up!
Amaya you did great remember it is an inflation so by stocking up on cooked rice and dumplings you don't have to purchase them in a hurry. Also I do the Ramen but instead of putting the entire packet of seasoning I put half and put the rest in a container to season soups. But Ramen is the best crave and budget friendly food.
This is the best advice. Veggies are perishable and you only have a few days to keep them fresh, unless you parboil and freeze. I doubt you have that much room.
This really is the best advice I’ve seen!!

I was just thinking this. My husband and I do food storage. I know a lot of people don't have the time or space for it, but it saves so much money to buy all of our staples (we are vegetarian so quinoa, lentils, etc) in bulk at Sam's club. Then, we buy fresh veggies as we need them.
You be confident in your ability to speak korean . That man in the market understood you, he just was surprised you spoke korean. Keep pushing against stereotypes while embracing your beautiful blackness also. Do you have a place to store this stuff a dormitory fridge that is big enough?! Wow, i guess you are in dorm with a common kitchen for cooking! Pretty good freshman hookup here. So proud of you taking the bus getting to know your college town in new ways! You did an excellent job budgeting, commuting ! Love the re braided hair looks great!! I'm sure they have healthier selections in the cafeteria make sure you advocate for some. Students do get homesick for specifics types of food you advocating may help other students from various countries attending the University. Make sure you are working out with friends!! Do you have a roommate (s)? Definitely would like to see your interaction with others on campus if they dont mind being filmed. Friendship is part of the college experience also! We dont want you filming so much that you are missing the opportunity to make lasting friendships. So proud of you young sis continue to exercise self care in your academic pursuits!❤
Honestly the man said the exact same thing as you and then said he doesn't understand 😅
He definitely understood! Your Korean is awesome! ❤
He sounded Alil rude I’m probably just sensitive but sounded rude
You know, smh.
Exactly. He missed an opportunity to practice tolerance and respect 😊
I love how you don't go too overboard. You didn't buy snacks and you try to stay healthy. You're such a joy to watch a lot of young people in college are not as mature and as Disciplined as you appear to be not to say that. You didn't go OVER budget, but that you tried to stay mindful. Prayers and blessings all the way from dallas texas
Going over budget is normal with inflation
You are your mum's twin ❤
Amyah, you are your mother's child. Great job of taking care of yourself and budgeting. So proud of you. I feel like, I've grown up with you. God bless
Amyah! You're at 100K subscribers! Keep up the good work! 👍🏽
I love watching this young lady grow, and improving as she grows
Now that man knew exactly what you were saying. 😑
Yup. And he was able to repeat her question back to her clearly, though with an unfriendly tone😊
Love love this girl. Wish kids these days is like Amyah. The dumplings can be steamed too. Buy an adjustable strainer and place in a small pot. Quick easy meal.
아마야~~ You are so cute and intelligent!!
When you talked to the man in the market you said, "벌써 다 했어?" Which feels more like "You already did everything?" So I think he was confused!
Your accent is so good, so it wasn't because of that!
I think next time if you want to ask if a product is gone out, you can say "품절이에요?" This is more asking about if the product or something is sold out!
Keep being such a bright girl! 화이팅~~
Amyah,...Try sticking to your pre-planned list and use a calculator as you add things to your grocery basket.
You did good -- now lets see how many meals you get out of this $125.00 grocery haul.
Good luck on your meal planning journey!
You are responsible for your safety at All times darlin, I strongly recommend you keep the 🎧 home when out!.. 💞
It may be off. Some people like having it on their head to give the impression they are listening to something but not really. Some introverts do it bur they can hear everything happening around them. Don't know if she is an introvert though, but as an introvert I can understand doing that.
@@YonUndone3064 I do that all the time
WE LOVE YOU AMAYAHHH
Congrats on 100k. Keep being amazing
Congratulations amyah on 100k keep going sending love ❤
You are such a natural!! I’ve been following your fam for years & was excited to hear you’re at UC Berkeley. I’ll be praying for you to stay encouraged, prayed up, and prosperous in your studies. Blessings to you lil sis!🙏🏾💃🏾
OMG AMAYAH!! I'm from the Bay Area and my mom worked right across the street from this asian grocery store and I loved this market! It literally has everything you need. You unlocked a core memory for me. I hope I run into you one day when I'm out in Oakland or Berkeley... Wishing you a successful journey with your studies!
Love, love, love, you go girl!!! You are learning and loving...so proud of you!!! pretty brown skin girl!!!🎉😂🪷
Hi Amay! I watched you as kid! You are all grown up!.stay focus and get out of Uni with flying colours stay true to yourself and keep good company girl
Congratulations on 100K subs 👏
Congratulations on 100k 🥳✨
You’re so intelligent I love watching you❤ keep up the great work, it gets easier!
It's a joy to watch you grow and flourish Amyah! You're so smart and positive. I wish nothing but the best for you and the mazelee family for all time. 😊 Much love from Socal! Congrats again for getting in to Berkeley!
My best adivce is to look at what you already have in your food box, in your fridge and your freezer.
Then work out a mea plan with what you have left for the week. After that plan out other meals for the rest of that week, and the week ahead. That way you know what you need to get each week. Basically just plan your meals for each week and stick to that list utilising what you already have left in you food box, fridge and freezer.
If you still have some place left in your freezer, I recommend you to cut a part of your vegetables and freeze them, so if you don’t eat them in the upcoming days, you can still eat them later whenever you want 🙃.
Good job. Per your request I have a few suggestions:
1-never shop hungry
2-use a hand written list always
3-keep a running tally as you shop
4-shop your list ‘before’ adding anything unplanned item to your cart
I noticed when I shop hungry I fill my cart
Love your videos. Budgeting is difficult. Make sure you get only what you had on your list. It is easy to get off track because their are so many tempting items in the store. Love you.❤❤❤❤
You look so happy and healthy. I’m happy you are having a good first year experience. A former student reached out to yesterday to say she had a really awful first semester but is hoping spring will be better. Were you able to fit all that meat in your tiny freezer?
Living in New Zealand 🇳🇿 mum & Joe have raised you with budgeting skills so well. Korean food is always nice when cooked with love. Brilliant keep it up. There are so many temptations. Spend wisely. Good on you Amyah. It's all Brain Food. Thank you for the look in❤😊
I really love the way you are so independent, much love from Kenya, always in love with your channel and your mum's channel too
100k!!!!!! Hurraayyyyy!!!! Congrats darling
So proud of you and to continue to see mature and continue to grow is amazing. Blessings luv😊
I have watched you growing up and I am so very proud of the responsible young lady you have become. Great job taking care of yourself. Be confident and do nit allow anyone or anything intimidate you. You got this!!! Speak the language and do not worry about mistakes you are only human. Great job!!!!❤🎉😊
13:25 Great job. In order to stay on budget make a list ahead for the meals you plan on preparing and only buy what you need. Snacks and treats last. Good luck and God bless you. Stay positive and enjoy. Watching from Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Amyah, this is good. I love the camera angles, video editing and colour grade.Iit's very impressive and I can't wait to see you get even better.
Good for you trying to be thrifty. It was a joy joining you doing your food shopping. You are so sensible young lady 💕
Im so proud of you , stay safe 🙏🏾
Omg your so responsible and independent I hope to be like you some day hope you enjoy the rest of your college days girly love ya😘
Hello Amyah. You did good job shopping. Can't wait to see what you'll make with the food.
We love Amyah!!!! My CZcams niece!!! You're doing a wonderful job on your own!!!! I'm sooooooo proud of you love!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ Oh! And CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR 100K HUN!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I use to live in Oakland and KP market was my go to store for asian foods. I miss it. Definitely sign up for their newsletter and see what is on sale for that week.
Enjoy college. Always happy to see a young black woman and man...getting an education. My grandson is heading to college this year. We're all so excited. If you have any tips to share. All are welcome!
Loving the videos keep them coming congratulations on 100k subscribers.❤
Love your dorm room. The view is 😍 Saw this guy make full meals w rice in his rice cooker. 🍚
Amyahhhhh love your videos ❤❤
if you want, you can get those grocery trolley bags with the wheels for public transportation. i commute and it's super handy. I put all the heavy stuff in the trolley and if it's too full, I put the rest in my handbag/backpack
Congratulations on 100k ❤❤
One thing that my family does to save money because grocery is soooooooooo expensive. We would install the app( if they have one) and then add everything thing we need. if it goes over we can take things off, so that when we go to the grocery store we wont go over our budget! Hope this helps.
BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMAN!!!
So super, super proud of you young lady!!!!🎉👸🏾🎊
I see you getting your master's degree in London. Much love from SF, CA🙋🏾🌉
You are well versed in the cuisine and that’s a big help to You. Good job to your parents! 🎉
Love Seeing you grow up and be a responsible, smart beautiful young lady 😊❤ ... Keep doing great things
We love you Amayah❤
I've had bibimbop at a korean restaurant with my then soon-to-be husband. The rice was crispy, I didn't expect that. My default style of cooking can swing from Southern, to Asian to Latin. I look forward to seeing what you make and how you manage your groceries. Good job.
a few budgeting tips, dumplings are delicious but will almost always end up causing you to go over budget, only contemplate getting them at the end of the grocery trip. you should also find out if maybe a dumpling restaurant near you sells theirs frozen, they are often cheaper or you get more for the price. also it helps to use a calculator as you go, putting in the price for each item you put in your cart instead of guessing towards the end. separating your cart is helpful as well, put all the necessities in one area, and have those rung up first at check out, and then after seeing the total, slowly add the other items in the cart, that way if you are close to being over budget, you have all the necessities and don't have to ask to have items removed from the bill
You look radiant and beautiful! Haven’t had Korean food before, but it’s on my list.
This is so amazing your studying in Korea. I rememeber when you told your mom you wanted to study there. Glad to see your living your dream
Yasss ive been waiting for you to upload. Love your content amaya. Been watching you since mazelle❤
You are making your mom and your dad proud. Mom'sand dad's hop in here and comment. I am so proud of this young girl! You will be proud of your parents also. I literally watch her grow up.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have had & enjoy Korean food. I think you did well with your shopping. It difficult to stay on budget when shopping to eat healthy. Give yourself a Pat on the Back. A common issue among College students is not eating healthy during college. Hence the expression the college 15 as in gaining weight. I am glad to see you are taking control of your health & well being God Bless🙏🏽
Great job being so far from home which means that you are a very, very, very responsible daughter. Keep up the great job! Amen
The video QUALITY is everything
You are teaching so many like myself Amyah! Great job! And Taro is the best. I like Taro flavoure Boba tea. 😇
Congratulations on 100k you’re an amazing youngster
Your college experience so far seems well rounded and awesome!
Heyyy ily so much girl keeping going and doing great things in life
Korean food is they best!! Enjoyed watching your video's.
I love love love your videos girl you have no idea. If possible ik you’re busy college student but if possible I would love a bit longer video from you❤❤❤❤❤
Congratulations on your subscribers 👏 you did great grocery shopping ❤💪🏽
Great job Miss Amyah. You learned what I learned from taking only a tote bag to the market. Time to invest in a small sized bus friendly shopping kart. Smile Blessings 🙏
You're doing great Amayah, it's hard sticking to a budget when you're in another country, but I know you can do it, your such a smart young lady. Congratulations on reaching 100,000 subscriber. ❤❤❤
Another country?
viviandavenport3935 she’s in California, she’s shopping in a grocery in the local Koreatown.
Girl you did so well! I used to be so scared to take the bus so I used to instacart my groceries which was way too much money 😭 college is a mad ting
We loved u Amoyah . Continued to stayed focused and make right choices n make mom n dad n your entire family proud ... brown skin girl😂😂😂❤
Yes, Sis, I think you could save more money by shopping at Berkeley Bowl ,especially for fresh produce. I didn’t see you buy any fruit. I have shopped at that Korean store. Please check out Berkeley Bowl. The F bus and the 18 bus stop right by it. I live in Berkeley. Be happy to show you around. I admire you so much🌸
All that looks soo good 😊
I love Korean food 🍱. Your vlog is amazing amyah
my favorite video
More to come!
I loved everything you purchased it looks so yummy and healthy I love the dumplings one of my personal favorites is Bulgogi dumpling except I do mine a little different. I set them in boiling water just enough to thaw allow them to dry on a paper towel and then I place a bit of olive oil on a pan at medium heat for about 5-10 minutes or until golden brown with my pre-cooked rice. I would love to see more videos I think you're pretty amazing even a cooking one would be cool if you had a portable set in your dorm room. Thanks for sharing :)
Never go grocery shopping when you’re hungry. You will over shop. A list done before shopping will help you get what you need. Add the total on your calculator as you put each item in your cart to make sure you do not go over budget.
Great video your mom and dad did a great job ❤❤❤
Amyah you know she’s watching 😂😂. Plan ahead with a list next time before going shopping. You’re a beautiful girl I admire all of the activities that you are involved in. Keep up the good work. ❤️
She had her list on her phone
@@YonUndone3064 you right she did, I intended to say stick to the list
Thank you
Haven't had Korean food but plan to try it. You and your family have inspired me watching you prepare and eat it.😉🥰
Hey amyah I love watching your video's them great job❤❤
Great video Amyah
Amiyah you are doing great a little over budget but be mindful of that the next shopping trip❤
Get your veggies from Chinatown or the farmers market. They’re always more expensive at the Korean markets in the Bay Area. If you can,get a better price and you can end up getting more if you go out a certain time like when they’re about to leave. Never go to the store hungry because then you wanna buy more food yeah.
🎉🎉🎉🎉I Luv the Introduction...it seemed so Au Natural 😊..The Gym ..my fave place
..Food 😊🎉
Your hair is beautiful❤️🥰
I’ve been watching her and her family on CZcams for a minute and they inspired me to start I hope I can get there one day.
Amyah, I’m not sure if you use grocery store apps but they do help you save occasionally. Also ask employees what time they reduce items and what days meats are marked down. The Kroger by my home is near a university and meat is reduced on Wed-Thurs. Sadly, now they have a limit on everything. I don’t blame them I was going to town on the meat. Hard to find salmon, filet mignon, and oxtails on sale.
This is so cool to watch. Keep it up 🎉❤
i love korean food and i’m really excited because im going to H-mart tomorrow
I so much Love the way your hair is right now❤Try and be making your hair more with your natural hair❤❤
It has happened to us all and at different times in our life too. Practice makes perfect. You will get it down.
Last week was my first time trying Korean food at a restaurant and the kimchi pancake was my favorite!!!
Calculate evreything you buy as ur getting it so you know exactly how much it is and write down your list so u know what to get and that should help you stay in budget
Congrats on 100k! You're A-Maze-ing!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉😂❤
