- I almost always shop at Walmart to stretch my dollars on the road. In this video I show what I bought, meal ideas, and price breakdown.
Living cheap on the road has made me find very interesting meals like cabbage and eggs, Garbanzo Bean salad, avocado toast and more.
Stay Curious!
Karli
That's an awesome haul, Karli! Thanks for shopping with us! 😉
Walmart.
I shop at your store too! A lot! I don’t have a video but I have my receipts! 😊
I love your store!!
Notice the sign behind her 'I Live at Walmart' haha
Totally laughed out loud to"baby wiping hobo"! Too funny😂😂
🌴☀️Came by to watch this again few yrs later…I’m TIRED😩 of having to keep up with powering my 50+ liter fridge/freezer, I need a friggin break!!!
So yeah came by to see what some option would be for food shopping. Hope your doing well…I know it’s an old video but it’s still so very helpful☀️🌴
You made quite a hall at walmart. It's so easy to overspend there. Any more I make a list and try to stick to it. But that's easier said than done. Great video.
Props for beeing eco-friendly and refilling your waterjugs 👩🌾🌵🌺🦂
I love this kind of videos! I should started too watch your channel 😍
Awesome shopping list. Good enough for survival. 🎉
Very informative video. I have a small refrigerator at home and also in my van. Always needing new ideas.
Always a good start to the day when it begins with a Karli video!😁
So true
Grocery shopping - always colourful videos ;)
Thank you. Bee. Full time vanlifer for 2 months now and been trying to figure out meals. Very informative.
FYI: since you feature your food hauls in your vids, they are tax deductible, plus great info, I'm sure you know that but good info for other vanners! Love your vids!! Love You!
Thank you Laura for the tax tip!
Thanks Karli, I never thought of putting the condensed cans in Ramen noodles ! Sounds good ! This is the reason I love your videos !
Guess what.! You can also use the Japanese miso soup to add to the ramen noodles instead of that original seasoning in there., I tried the miso soup with ramen and it really good. You should try it IF you want. ramen noodles with miso soup is really good.😄
Miso is super good!
It is., I love it I prefer the miso soup with ramen noodles is even better with the original seasoning. 🥰😄
Yes I to love the I Live at Walmart sticker. Great tips on food shopping, and looks like you have plenty to eat for awhile.
I just found you I just love what your doing I just got land so I will be off grid till power gets installed and a well is drilled love seeing all of the things you got you gave me so many ideas I took a snap shot of some of the things you got I’m going to try fingers crossed I like them I’m sure I will also do you eat quinoa that’s another good option you could try
That’s awesome that you’re doing off grid! Quinoa is really good!
I really like your idea for the adding your soup to Ramen noodles. And I also thank you for your advice on the Halos I went grocery shopping myself yesterday and bought a big 3 lb bag of halos. I normally don't eat citrus but being traveling on the road it's very good to stay healthy I added to my diet a maximum complete greens. It's a powder that I got a GNC and it gives me the extra vitamins and minerals that I need kind of like that drink that you had there with the vanilla chai or the green one you had right there in your video. Stay healthy and stay safe. Thank you David Fontaine
Thank you for the great ideas
Hi Karli Great meals
Karli, I shopped there Tuesday (2 days ago). Camped about 3 miles north on blm land.
I love your videos I wish avos were that cheap where I am super jealous stay safe in the lock down.
I love your videos Kari and sure do learn from them,my van is the same as yours I believe and its almost ready to hit the road😊
Yay!!
That was a great haul. Oregon Chai is the best, but I like the original. My go to is the canned chicken just like you got. Quick and easy sandwiches or just eat it as a salad.
I love that Oregon chai I love the spiced one when you use 1 of those cartons though you have to use the same amount of milk I'm sure you read that on the directions so I usually keep one in the frigerator and they do Half milk in half chai concentrate..
You can actually refill your water at the park too😊
Wow, that was a big haul (and great budgeting!) You had me when I saw the fish tanks and then the Hershey bars in your cart :p I LOVE chocolate, and there was a time that we had as many as 400 gallons of fish tanks (the largest being a 75 gallon tank with Oscars and other ciclids) in the house several years ago (we haven't kept fish for a while now though). Great video :D
Wow! Thats a lot of fish tanks!!
Cool video Karli! Eat, sleep & drive - vanlife! Yay! I got a good book on the subject "No Frigde Diet" for my birthday as a present. It's "The Prepper's Cookbook" by Tess Pennington. Lots of good information. Give it a try. See you, Vic.
Don't forget to shop Thrift Stores,You and Your Cabbage! Great Video Sincerely Thomas Raymond Fresno California.
Almond milk is really good, we got the Vanilla Unsweetened for my mom, she is a diabetic and the unsweetened has no sugar, we had to get her off regular milk. I myself love the boil in bag rice, it may be more in cost than regular rice but well worth the convenience. I am not on the road yet, converting a bus and watching vids to learn all I can.
Awesome! Yeah boil in a bag rice is great!
@@CuriousKarli I have to admit, lol, I will most likely have a 12v fridge like a Dometic. I guess my biggest concern, although you're obviously not sick, is keeping mayo, eggs, and other perishables from going bad, especially Mayo.
@@mobilehomelife4028 , i have used Hellman for years, and if you never put in fridge it keeps great, I never put my mayo in fridge...nor do i put mustard in the fridge.
I just love you intro song wonderful.. thanks for sharing 🤗
Thanks!
I like the Boltonhouse Farms salad dressings being a heart patient its the lowest sodium dressing I can find, I'll have to check out the drinks.
Excellent food shopping! Walmart's "Great Value" and Dollar Store's "Clover Valley" brands are 90% good for me. However, I love Luck's pintos! LOL Then there are a few different brands of fresh fruits and veggies. :)
Another FYI... you can get water for 15 cents a gallon at Safeway or Albertson's in Havasu. At least you could last year. :)
Really? That’s a deal!
Thanks
I read coconut oil can be used as a sunscreen too.
Coconut oil is very good at Walmart you can get a two pack of cold pressed coconut oil I have had mine for 3 months now. And I use one can for skin and the other container for cooking. When I say skin I mean I use that to make lotions and things like that for my for my dry skin it's good on your scalp and it also good on your face and your elbows and knees it's just good for an all on all in all skin application. You tend to dry out quite a bit when you're traveling and the bass and baths are good but a lot of the Soaps that are made nowadays have a lot of harsh chemicals in them. I am researching on using coconut oil in replacement of olive oil or in conjunction with olive oil to make my own soap. Have a great day and stay healthy and safe
I'm using dr Bronners soap here in the last 2 years, I got liquid and bar of it. I'd say in the desert you would need lots of oils. ♥️❤️💛🌻🌻🌸🌸🌼🌼
Attention walmart shoppers, if you go directly to a kroger or other meat shop you can save money on ground beef by purchasing only a half a pound for your spaghetti and other recipes. Go to a store that has a small meat cutting section, and get it in smaller portions, and it will assist in not having too many leftovers for that small ice chest. Be sure to stop by and purchase some food containers at dollar tree for additional savings. Thank you for stopping at walmart, where they take all the money. Also, you can purchase those cute little cans of heat (for cooking) at a dollar tree or a 99 cent store. Saves money when you only need it for like 40 minutes of cook time.
Cabbage and eggs to me is dinner with white rice lol
Love the 'I live at Walmart' sticker in the background. Deliberate positioning?
haha! not really but I am glad you saw it!
I get Roma tomatoes all the time and they don't need to be refrigerated. Actually they are not really supposed to be refrigerated!
Thanks for the upload!
Budget budget budget I do peanut butter and cookies I noticed you had no peanut butter and jerky it's a little expensive but you can eat it like it is or you can add it to things like soups rice noodles it's really good I like jerky
Halos are awesome. But big bags here Georgia are like 5 somethings I then I leave them at home aggggg . If didnt know I drive truck try to eat out of cooler too
I can barely keep one avocado before it starts rotting! I got one last night ..I better eat it now!
Yes! Grilled cheese with tomato soup! Some things I can eat store brand. Tomato soup isn't one of them.
I was just at that Walmart a couple days ago. I'm still in Lake Havasu, just south on BLM land.
More Karli cooking!
$8 a day is pretty good. At home I spend about $6.00 - $8.50 a day for food, and about 75 cents a day for bottled water, but that is only for drinking water.
No peanut butter peanut butter is good on cookies and you got me eating those cans of chicken LOL
how do you keep the food cold in your cooler?
Those near east cuscus are da bomb digiddy!!
Aren't they!? Soo good! I had one yesterday :)
Van gonna be riding a little lower for a while, lol.
try patoes with cream of celery soup salt n pepper taste great easy n cheap mom used make it alot growing up i still do today just cut up ur taters drain add soup n salt n pepper
Got's to get cookies! ☮️
mhmm!!
Sprouts are the Answer!
Store dry, fresh salad with minimal time or investment. I like adding ginger, soy ,garlic and raisins! It's the bomb and much better for you!
Sounds good!
Where are you getting water for $.29 at Walmart I live in Virginia I have never seen that
I call this trip a grocery store a haul ~ you really do eat health. The fast food industry is a trap of convenience in the Big cities. Living this Nomatic lifestyle is like a crash course in the old "Home Economics " courses they taught in the 1960' in high schools. BTW, the males in my school couldn't sign up for "Home Eco" classes - (go figure?) nor could girls sign up for "Shop/Wood Working classes", you are learning both on your own and with help from other Tribe members. You go girl ~ !
Janelle, I had to take home EC in Jr Hi, but they had just opened up woodshop as an elective for girls & cooking for boys, typing was an elective for everyone. By high school they were all electives.
Thanks Janelle :)
Good watch
need to find a aldis
Here's an idea for your no frig cooking... Open a can of green beans, drain, squeeze limon juice (or vinegar) over the beans, mix and eat...
Go Asian with Sesame oil & Soy sauce tasty and low calorie.
What did you spend all that money on?
Are you still living in your van, full-time????
Cookies for the campfire! 🍪🍪 😁
Marshmellows are for campfires, cookies for everytime inbetween =]
@@dirtynomad Yeah, I guess she did say she was going to make smores. Lol.
@@freedomdove yeah, cookies are hard to keep on the stick =]
@@dirtynomad LMAO 😁 Actually, I only mentioned the cookies because of what happened on the last live feed around the campfire. Everyone was jonesing for cookies. I didn't mean that they'd cook them over the fire. I guess I should have said that differently. Lol. 😁
Naw you said it fine, im having fun with you =]
I know you're trying to eat healthy and that's good. However you really need to look at the amount of sodium and sugar in the food you get. You are probably getting your maxium recommended sodium intake in just one of those cans of soup. You're probably also getting way too much sugar with alot of the other items. High salt and sugar are really bad for your system. Youre young now but it will catch up with you. Both can be really hard on your skin and many other organs. Do some research for your health. Wishing you the best in your travels.
And that's why I prefer to use a can of no salt added mixed vegetables and a packet of low sodium chicken bouillon or a can of low sodium V8. Match that up with a few slices of no salt added Swiss cheese from the deli, for the grilled cheese sandwich, use a whole grain bread, and you are all set.
Is there a meal you crave that you cant make on the road...? What do you always order when you go out to eat??
Good question.
@@CuriousKarli karli you can still make cookies on the stove top.. You can make canned biscuits in your skillet on the stove top, I've even made a pineapple upside down cake in a skillet on the stove it's all about keeping your temperature at a certain range
Can’t believe you can keep all that without any fridge and never use ice
Yeah! It's getting more difficult with the weather warming up but works really well when it gets to the 30s &40s at night cause then I open my cooler.
Cabbage in butter? Fried?
KARLI. WHERE DID YOU GET THE ..I LIVE AT WALMART STICKER. I WOULD LOVE TO PUT 1 OR 2 IN MY VAN THAT I CALL "DARK SHADOW'Z".COWBOY
I think I saw some Hershey's in there 🤣😂
definitely!
Grilled cheese sandwiches sounds pretty good right now
doesn't it!? now I am hungry
Do how do you keep Mayo and Eggs from not spoiling?
When I was in Europe I saw the grocery stores don't put the eggs in the cooler. They're out on the shelf like a can of soup.
@@13Sala13 Exactly 😊 but once opened the majonaise must be used quickly if not refrigerated
I try to keep my cooler as cool as possible. Eggs and mayo can survive a while unless cracked or contaminated with other things.
Eggs can stay out of the cooler as long as it's not crazy hot.
I have a question about the blue water container. How much water does it hold?
Thank you.
I have a 3 gallon primo jug from Walmart under the countertop
@@CuriousKarliI like that. Thanks again.
Hi Karli..you got dark chocolate for the Smores..are you on a diet lol
Why you don’t get Vienna sausage is cheap and good. 😊
I personally don't like Vienna sausage. I have definitely tried cooking it before and it just never ended up good.
@@CuriousKarli oh., it’s ok I don’t like Vienna sausage that much too., I only eat it once in a while. It’s too soft for meat.
70 cent muffin :)
I ordered 10 stickers, but PP didn't ask for a mailing address :/
Hey Cincy! Could you send me another email because I am not sure if I got your order? curiouskarli@gmail.com

Are Aldis and the smaller mom an pop stores an option? mostly vs Wallyworld.
There aren't many Aldis out here, if any that I have seen. The mom and pop places are very over priced because of how small the towns are. Safeways, Albertsons, & Vons are the expensive alternatives. Although some towns in this area have the 99cent stores and those are great!
@@CuriousKarli Thanks.
No peanut butter??... LoL no matter how well stocked a kitchen, i would starve without peanut butter. 😁
I already had some! I love having it too! I have tried almond butter recently and was pleasantly surprised :)
My other car is my house
I guess no one is gonna talk about her hiding the big pack of Hershey's under the pasta huh?
shhhhh!!
WHAT?!!! NO EGGS?????!
She got an 18 pack
Hi Karli I'm such a Fan of yours I have a Ton of tips for you I see from the last video you did your face was pretty clear I think you might need to switch to the coco nut cheese because I think you might have allergies to dairy love the grocery haul and hope this also will help you why not try to go to the Rest Room with a cup and your jugs and fill water from their and save your money the water you get from the Dispenser's are just tap water its not filtered its just plain water that way you can save money for other things
Yes it's tap water but it is filtered. Less heavy metals and minerals
you love soup
I certainly hope that W------ is paying you to say their name and display their logos.
I wish!
What no tuna? Get your omega 3s girl. 🐟
Free Eagle. Fukushima has effectively poisoned everything coming from the Pacific. They are able to detect Caesium 137 in Tuna from it. Tuna is a top of the food chain fish like Swordfish. I use to live them both along with oysters, but I don’t eat any of them anymore. What little Seafood I eat now a days I make certain was Atlantic caught.
Well lil sis, I have to go against the grain , instead of just praising you like most other people, I have a question..... have you ever wanted or wished you had a refrigerator, even a small 12 volt solar powered one?, I'm just curious, the pun is intended,,, but also not intended , anyway thanks, deuceaid
I don't want a fridge because I don't have enough power. I also have gotten use to this sort of diet. It would be a big investment for a few inches of cold space. I definitely see its advantages but it's just not for me right now.
Curious Karli Thanks lil sis for your honesty , it seems hard to find that today in these cities, even my attorney says not to trust him......WTF
Way too much salt and sugar in these easy processed meals! Moderation is the key!
Garbonzos Yuck!
