I hope you enjoyed here is a breakdown of each price of the meals. Go out there are save your pennies peeps!!!! Take care of the pennies and the pounds will look after themselves as my Mother told me.
Breakfast: Apparently the box has 16 serving sizes and the box was 0.55p= 0.03p for the cornflakes. The soya milk was 0.85p and apparently has 4 servings=0.21p
SO breakfast was 0.24p
Lunch: The baked beans were 0.25p for a tin and I had half so 0.13 rounded up. 0.45 for the bread, with apparently 22 servings. I had 2 slices=2 servings =0.04 for the bread.
0.17p for the lunch.
The cake=£1.00 for 10 servings= I had one serving= 0.10p
The midget gems= I cant remember the price of this one but I believe it was 0.25p! I only had a small handful though :)
The rich teas= I couldn’t find the price of these but they were on sale and from my memory were on sale for 0.20!!!! with 23 servings, I had 3= 0.03 rounded up.
Dinner:
The pasta was 30p for 5 servings=0.06. Sauce=0.40 for 5 servings=0.08 Sweetcorn=0.20/5=0.04 Extra tomato=0.30/5=0.06 Green Beans=0.80/5=0.16 (interesting how the veg was one of the most expensive things) Garlic Bread=0.95/8-0.12p
Cornflake Cake= Chocolate=0.30+ Cornflakes=0.15=0.45 for 9, or 0.05 for 1
Crisps=85 for 6=0.14p
Cashews=0.75/5=0.15
Strawberries=1.00 didnt have a serving size, just had however many I was vining so cant give you a price for this one! - Jak na to + styl
Tesco’s everyday value was replaced with fake names/brands to minimise the stigma surrounding the everyday value range
They are mimicking the lidl/aldi approach
Molly's for sweet, Redmere for fresh fruit and veg, Grower's Harvest for tinned.
Yeah hearty food company is now their everyday value stuff
Yeah, and Daisy for toiletries.
The most depressing thing I saw, was a clearly underage teen, trying to buy Tesco value lager
The "Ms Molly" and the "creamfields farm or whatever it is, IS the value. They've just changed the name and coloured so people feel better about buying the cheaper stuff :)
apparently you *can* polish a turd XD
@@SimonMetin sometimes polishing the turd is all we can do lol
tbh Ms Molly’s chocolate is GREAT too
Simon Metin I hate that this comment has me uncontrollably laughing at 4 in the morning😂😂
@MB Guttersnipe the only bad thing I've found is their fake Parmigiano Reggiano, it's tasteless and not that much cheaper
You didn't spill anything on your hoodie Grace! So proud 😂
Sometimes the value and name brand are made in the same factory...branding affects our taste perception.
Recipes are different though. My dad works as Chef Engineering Site Manager for McVities and they make the biscuits etc for everyone BUT the recipes are stripped back and different. That doesn't mean they don't taste great though. :) Its the same with frozen meals and pizzas (his last company he worked for)
I used to deliver milk. Same milk, different packages.
@@johndoe-wv3nu whaaat? Seriously, so like, organic?
@@ghurabaa114xx I don't recall if they sold organic milk. They sold milk to Shaw's, and Walmart. Same milk, store brand and name brand.
@@ghurabaa114xx Organic is different usually
Literally clicked on youtube wondering if you'd uploaded and it said uploaded 1 min ago... that's the universe
universe joining us all together
Same
Synchronicity.
when is your dad going to do a day eating like you? the likes on the original video are wayyyyyyyy above 5k haha! Also, would love to see you do a week eating food that does not contain palm oil. the documentary by David Attenborough on climate change was heartbreaking to watch and it would make great topical content from you!
That's a really good idea! It's tough to cut out palm oil in snacks.
The thing is, as devastating as palm oil is, other alternatives would create even more.
Amy Hughes
Create even more WHAT? You’re mental. Palm oil has single handedly devastated the orangutan species, making them extremely endangered, as they have torn down most of their habitat to grow it in the tropical region that it requires. Prove that other options would destroy even more of their habitat.
Simon Metin
Climate change being caused by humans is a lie.
I feel like if more people stopped eating so much meat maybe palm oil wouldn’t have that much of an impact.
I would also like to see a video where you only spend £1 on food for 5 days x
czcams.com/video/B3eamiu17Mw/video.html < watch this one then! It's not Grackle, but its really fun! :)
@@lukvanleeuwen7603 girl that's so old I watched it already! And I would love Grace's take on the challenge
It's kind of a controversial challenge since some people find it insulting towards those who are poor
@@NancyValleria well only the poor can decide if its offensive. I am poor, and there's nothing wrong with the challenge imo
@@NancyValleria Idk I always found them kind of helpful when I was homeless for ideas of what to eat. Also I think the difference is whether the person doing the video acknowledges their own privilege and addresses the issue in the video but of course our girl would do it right
Years ago my husband was a supervisor in a cheese factory. The budget cheese was exactly the same cheese as the more expensive just packaged differently. Great video as always Grace Xx
Exactly. Many off-brand products are in fact brand products in disguise and you are buying the same thing. Sometimes you can even check the manufacturer of off-brand products
this is why I buy off brand foods! same thing most of the time.
This is true for all food !
in tesco now they have rebranded to things like miss mollys, rosedeane farms, creamfields etc.
would love to see the 5 days of 5 meals for a fiver! beaut idea x
What’s a fiver???
@@user-li5tm4yk1b 5 pounds
All of that food in canada, even if you bought store brand stuff, would cost $50 at the very least. The fact that you paid 7 pounds for all of that makes me want to cry for people here. That's wild
I know that in USA where I live at some stores you can’t even get out with one bag of items for under $40-55 it’s crazy. And I don’t even eat meat
@@AKayfabe I know. I don't understand. The basics of nutrition should be a right to have. Milk, bread, fruits, and veg should be given. People are starving and they shouldn't have to be. It's disgusting how much we pay for food
I am shoooook that would cost like $30-$40 here
What is the minimum wage in Canada?
@@mcan1774 umm I think it's 12 now. And I know that it's different everywhere and some places it's much less but even at 12 dollars an hour someone here wouldn't be able to afford to live on their own and pay rent and buy food and pay bills. Also I'm saying that anywhere in the world basics should not be something you have to buy. Bare necessities should be something everyone in the world has the right to.
Could you do a basic tutorial about making that loaf of bread you mentioned for 42p 😊
Nicola Longmore yes plz!!!!!
It’s super simple just google a basic white bread recipe ! Just bread flour, water, salt and yeast. Shouldn’t cost more than ~ 40p per loaf and v satisfying to make !
Nicola Longmore Combine 250g strong bread flour, sachet of yeast (7g), 1tsp salt, 1/2 tsp sugar, 1tbsp oil. Stir in 150-200ml warm water. Knead 5-10 mins. Glaze with milk or egg if you want. Bake for 20 mins. Enjoy :)
Literally just buy the stuff to make a loaf of bread and when you divide the ingredients with how many loaves and how much you spent is gonna be cheaper
That cost does not include the cost of cooking the bread, including a warm place to prove it as well as the oven.
My Brother, Sister and I lived off Asda smart price our whole childhood growing up and honestly never had a reason to complain. There are actually some store brand products I still buy to this day because I'm so used to the taste over the name brand item.
I'm happy to see that supermarkets are changing their branding to blend better with the other items on sale. I still believe that there is quite a stigma around people buying store-bought items. form my experience people that are in a situation where store brand is all they can buy might feel ashamed or embarrassed so not having a bright green smart price or bright orange basic will help a lot. Another great video Grace. 👍🏻
I often buy store brands because I prefer the store brand product. I'm not embarrassed at all. I also not embarrassed by my 20 year old pick up, it runs well and has been reliable. However I'm proud to report my truck is paid for, my car is paid for, my house is paid for and I have no debt. Side eye me and I'll laugh in your face.
I think it's great that you address this topic. Usually people on the internet try to show how rich they are or fake it.
There are so many videos with the titles like "I ate $1000 GOLD CHICKEN WINGS!" and so on...
I live in France where food is incredibly expensive, we can buy food in England for a month, for the same price we pay for a week in France. ( and eat better food as I'm vegetarian and that's something that France just doesn't cater to...)
We fill up three times a year from Tesco.
So true!! I live in France too and when I go to England, the difference is wild!! Not to mention the vegan and vegetarian range is SO much better in the UK! (I eat veggie too)
That's interesting! I always assumed it was just the cafe and food served in restaurants that were expensive, not groceries as well. I live in Singapore and I do the same thing when it comes to toiletries, Malaysia sells them way cheaper.
Does anyone else rewatch gracks vids when we are waiting for new ones? Love them all and looking forward to the extra bits on the new channel
I’d love a blindfolded Tesco value vs standard Tesco or branded products to prove to others that taste doesn’t matter 🙂
face mask on, water ready, grackle? commence
cherryexplosion27 *hot* water ready
@@milliesabine2107 u right sis
Hotel? Trivago
i really thought you meant a medical mask.
@@candykxttens lol, cant blame u
my mom was a single mom and ALWAYS bought the store brand stuff growing up and ALWAYS made everything from scratch. it really helped me when i moved out on my own to save money
Tesco value garlic baguettes are fab. I wrap it in foil then put it in the oven and it comes out lovely and only about 33p each too x
Plus they’re vegan!
Asda has cheaper ones 13p
I’m late but yes!!! Always got them as a side of a meal can’t go wrong with them x
Omg yes on the side of spaghetti bolognese 😄
I usually buy value (I have 3 little girls to feed on a very low income) and it only takes a little finesse to turn them into yummy meals 💓 I don't usually buy snacks either just main staple ingredients! This should be a great vid!!! X
Hey, just a little message to say I used to be one of those little girls who ate value meals and lived in a low income house. 25p pasta sauce doesn't kill anyone and it teaches people how to make things stretch and how to season stuff if anything! I'm sure your little ladies will be able to make a meal out of a dish cloth when you finish with them! Im Just a random CZcams comment wanting to say HEY. Well bloody done!
@@rparry9165 thank you! It's hard work, some days more than others. But so rewarding 💓 😇😇😇
I've lived on dried beans and potatoes and cornbread and mac'n'cheese, but I confess, I couldn't make a meal from a dish cloth. When you really have to stretch pennies, yeah, you don't buy the cakes and crisps. (*You can MAKE crisps, if you have enough oil to deep fry. But a bag of popcorn--not the microwave kind--is cheaper than a bottle of oil.)
Love your videos always brighten my day.. also your the only person I sit through all the adverts for 😂 get the coinsssss! X
i love you grace keep up the amazing videos! 💘💞✨
I usually buy value foods/reduced items, Being disabled and on benefits because I sadly can't work. So I was really excited to see you try this out. Big fan of your content, I think you're killing it lately. Keep it up
I moved to france with my parents 10 years ago and i absolutely love watching your vlogs because i feel like i’m at home again
Sorry if that sounds soppy lol
Do homecook meals for 24 hours!! No box meals or nothing! Everything from scratch, homemade, only YOUR HOMEMADE COOKING
Not ur mums or whomever yooou
I love this so much because some people on youtube make videos around the subject with negative connotations and you've put such a positive spin on it , so refreshing to see your content as its just so unique !
I am certain your dad was my teacher when I was younger!!
LOVE your videos !!
I just started watching all your videos and I love them! Lol I’m so glad I discovered them
Thanks so much :)
I love your energy, Grace. You give off such a good vibe, it's contagious. :)
Grace I've become a massive fan in the past week, I could binge watch all your videos till I die 😂 you're so funny and original, the best ideas on the the platform 💯😂👌🏻
"I'm disappointed, so, I'm gonna have some cake" is me like every other day 💙 😂😂🤣🤣
YESSS I REALLY WANTED YOU TO DO THIS ALSO CAN YOU DO THE MOST EXPENSIVE FOOD NEXT?
She doesn’t have the money for that, no one does.
Oh gosh, I mean I would be broke but I am SO intrigued how different it would taste.... like M and S finest?! OHHHHHH
@@Grackle set up a go fund me page 🤣
@@Grackle Waitroseeeeee✌️
Grackle Where I live Tesco do a “Tesco finest” range where the food is slightly more expensive than the other food in the store!
im loving your new hairstyle recently, you look so pretty!
you're feeding us so well with your vids luv uuu ❣
I found your channel last week and i’ve been binging your videos ever since. Love how genuine you are, your videos give off the best vibes haha
yay thanks for the video! haha now it feels weird being early 😭 your channel grew so much im so proud💕
You should do a week eating only food that’s been reduced!!
i love that these kind of videos can be seen as trivial but you always make them so interesting and informative ??? you always do so much research and you have knowledge on the topic and you can really tell that you're interested in what you're talking about
Love this so much , you make videos so interesting and fun to watch , you are my favourite CZcamsr and an inspiration as I want to be in the food business when I’m older !!! Xx
Your videos are always so interesting!! Love u grackle ❤❤❤❤❤
Love you toooooo xxx
This was a great video! My value food hack is basically to buy meat thats about to be thrown out in a day or two, since my supermarket puts those on big discounts. I just buy them and make like a huge roast that lasts me a week. That way I can have various types of dishes. Like use some of the meat in pasta, some of it in a taco, make like a "sloppy joe", sandwiches with some rice. I love it
I will always be grateful for my mom putting food on our table. She went without food for me and my sister and honestly value food is great most of the time and you can come up with super proper creative stuff💛
your uploads make me so excited every time you upload lol
Has Grace already filmed a video on bread making? If not please do
she uploaded one where she made bagguets:3
*queen is back* 🤞🏻🖤
i’ve been having a gracking time watching your vids everyday instead of revising for my uni exams hahahahaha
Great video as always 😊I could listen to Grace talk about anything ... even reciting the phone book 😃
I find peoples opinion of value foods crazy i mean look at Aldi 90% of their stock is a value range however people dont view it the same as they dont stock multiple other brands
U should try making a gourmet cake with a premade cake mix, seeing as your a baker and all, love your videos!!!
I LOVE this idea
LOOOOVIN the longer vides Grack!! You crack me up every time !!
Just too much to fit in, you can see near the end I stop rambling as much because I dont want them to be too long but I cant help myself hahahah
@@Grackle Gosh no I would prefer them longer!! :)
I’ve just came across you’re Channel and I’ve been addicted lol ! You are such a lovely girl and great content 😊 really enjoying your page! Keep it up much love 💕
You should collab with clickfortaz.... you both have similar video styles ✨✨
pretty sure they're friends, taz said something like that before when she did the "don't get any stains" challenge
Gryffindorgang_ taz copies her lol
Ssss you gonna back that up or just say that?
A+ for creativity 😉 I LOVE your videos, keep it up 😘
a new video three days in a row love that
She pulls through again with another cracking video yes girl
Tesco do mishapen bacon offcuts in amongst the normal bacon at about 70p for 1lb weight . Great for cooking with.
You always have the best ideas
Anxiety! at the party honestly!!!
Urm she didnt make this ides
@@kittencrossmsp3360 urm she still did it, and made it entertaining
@@duwhjsjanabhzhakajaj lmao yeh but she didmt credit the person who made it 😂😂🤧🤧
Loved this one. I’m glad that that you mentioned that things basically tasted the same! It’s all about the “bits”!
I don’t know why but when you sneezed I started cracking up so hard .your videos are so uplifting and creative , you’re a breath of fresh air on CZcams . Keep being your authentic self !!!!
Im mind blown by how cheap this stuff is, its impossible to get food for the equivalent of these prices in Canada
I used to eat Tesco value noodles all the time, they were about 7p and wonderful
Oh flip 7p Noodles, YES PLS
Oh yes! 7p noodles and a 35p tin of meatballs would feed 2 of us for dinner on a skint day :)
I can see she has a very good relationship with her family, I think this is the foundation for every happy human being. Nice vid x
You’re always just so funny in your vids 😂😂💕
I can't believe how quickly you have gained subscribers. Love your videos . So excited to see new ones uploaded. Everyone subscribe and make this girl a CZcams superstar!!! 😉😁🤗
Your videos never fail to make my day ❤️
i love this video! i am a uni student and a lot of my friends complain about having no money to eat, they really should see this video
thank you for making this Grace xxx
I couldn’t name a single better thing than watching your videos while sipping my hot water
i would love a comparison of making meals with tesco basics and tesco finest 😊
madeleine olivia on youtube does a student series with like £1 dinners!!! shes vegan and has so many healthy options so interesting and helpful!!
Laura Nietfeld i love her channel!!
Your vlogs always make my day!
You’re killing it with your content at the moment 👏🏻please do a weekly budget one, that’d be interesting 😬
moved from london to canada. I miss my value range food!!! 😭 i miss 30p garlic bread. its like $5 minimum here (and not even accidently vegan)
ANOTHER upload?! Grackle: the gift that keeps on giving. 💞
Andddd got another one for tomorrow :))))
@@Grackle oh yay! You make my days brighter!
@Grackle 😯 😍🥰 SEE WHAT I MEAN.
lmao at you leaving the sneezes in! bless you!
Loved this video loved how you approuched the value stigma x
Tescos rebranded their value range to stockwells, growers harvest and Ms. Mollys - you can get stockwells tortilla chips for 45p
K Davies Also The Hearty Food Company, that’s another one they’ve added.
I agree with your dad, you’ve got to have the branded Jaffa cakes!!😍
Jaffa Cakes use saffron which is as expensive as gold... the fake ones all have a white sponge... you can definately taste the difference... I am the Jaffa Cake Monster...
SASBETA SQUADRON woah I had no idea :)
@@sasbetasquadron873 That is interesting information. My son has just returned from a few weeks in England, and I am really, really hoping to get good Jaffa cakes from him. I like the Marks and Spencer ones, but McVitties will do the trick too. For some reason they have never really taken off in South Africa and although one can find them, they are not very good.
Great video! I've done this challenge with my kids....and probably will again this summer holidays....and the rich tea biscuits double up as a great savory snack with a bit of spread and cheese on!
You are by far my new fav CZcamsr
For everyone who doesn’t know pounds and pence...
1 pence = 1.4 cents
1 pound = 1.27 dollars
laci chivari thank you!
wow, their stuff is SO CHEAP!
Now I need to translate this to euros 🙃
In America, the Walmart Great Value selection is fantastic. I've never had anything bad. I usually buy everything great value except for veggie meat substitutes
Sara Newlin have you tried the great value chocolate chip cookies? 👀
@@denah.583 I haven't! Are they good?
Sara Newlin no haha. they’re terrible
@@denah.583 Haha thanks for the heads up! I dont buy many sweets.
So excited to watch this!
you have such good ideas and people need to give you the credit you deserve
I actually preffer the broken up cashew nuts cause they absorb more of the salt, yum
Tesco's new everyday value branding is "Hearty Food co" - The ready meals are sick and some of them cost about 70p
I'm new to your channel and I'm not disappointed I love the vids
How do you not have way more subscribers?! You’re my fave at the moment
Same I was scrolling thru trying to find something good to watch but secretly I was scrolling to grace
best thing to come home from work to:)
Please do the trying the most expensive food in the supermarket next!
I don't know how I came across this channel but I'm floored by how much you can eat. I'm 180cm and 83kg and I can't do that much tucker. You are amazing. I subscribed because I am in awe.
Terrific video. Interesting and inclusive approach. Thanks so much!
My life was baked beans on toast or eggs I was brought up in housing commission it’s for people that can’t afford to pay 300 a week on rent so I’m very great full:) love from Australia
Early! Grackle is literally my friends all mixed together... Grace is my friend. 😔👍
And, yes, do the £5 challenge please!
YOU ARE MY FRIEND TOOOO
Grackle oh my god YOU REPLIED SO HAOOY I LOVE U PLZ
Grackle DO YOU KNOW WHEN YOU ARE SO HAPPY YOU GGET SO MUCH ENEGRTY I JUST GOT THATSKSKFNFLEJWNFEJKW PLEASE NEVER STOP MAKING VIDS
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Your face after eating the cornflakes and deciding if you liked them was priceless!
Most items I will buy generic in the US except for olive oil, eggs and bread. Also, check the ingredients list before buying store brands. Sometimes they use fillers so it costs less.
I love this idea and concept, I always tell my mum to get the everyday value stuff because I think it’s all the same😂
I feel so passionately about home brand ice cream being one of the best icecreams, (both their regular and dairy-free) at Woolworths that I have constant arguments with my mother that refuses to buy it. (however the vegan iced dessert I think it's technically called is either more expensive or the same price as dairy-free icecreams by brands but it's so good)
I’ve never heard bread described as a vessel before, I’m roaring 🤣
Millie Maye People historically used to use hollowed-out loaves as soup bowl, so literally a “vessel”.
From the sounds of it, it probably tasted like the floor planks of a ship LOL!!! 😅
What about 'trenchers,' the large slices of bread wealthier medieval people used as plates and then gave to the poor as alms?
WE LOVE U SO MUCH GRACK
“I don’t think that’s hygienic” haha 🤣 I love hearing Jesse chime in the back of your videos
