- Hey FreeGang! Thanks for tuning into our first USA grocery shopping video!
Today we visit the USA's biggest grocery store - Walmart! As a British family that is used to UK shopping, this was quite the experience as we see if we can get any good US deals and try to navigate Walmart for the first time in years - and with no budget!
We do some US and UK food grocery price comparisons, check out the vegan food options in Walmart, and come back with a nice US food grocery shopping haul!
We make these videos to bring smiles and entertain you, these videos are also good for anyone looking for money saving tips, vegan shopping at Walmart shopping on a budget, anyone conscious of the cost of living or their financial situation, or anyone just trying to save money! So hopefully it can help you with personal finance. We hope you enjoy this vegan US Walmart grocery haul.

Hey FreeGang! We had so much fun shopping at Walmart! Please suggest any other places you would like to see us go whilst here is the USA 🇺🇸
Target 🎯
US Aldi vs UK Aldi
Target and Trader Joe's
Hopefully your meals planning turns out for you guys and take care and just keep rising 💚👆
I think you’d love Aldi over there.ive seen plenty of hauls on here. Riveted. Awesome watching 💯🙌🔥
You did great shopping!! $100 for all that was amazing! Organic and healthier foods are usually more expensive
Thanks for the feedback! 👍
I love your saying, “You can’t leave them there for that”…😁
It's becoming the thing to say when you find a good deal! 😃
We call them French fries because the potatoes are French cut and then they’re fried. But also there’s crinkle cut fries, steak fries, waffle fries (from potatoes not real waffles lol), then shoe string fries, cut real thin but long, and curly fries. Or chop up a couple of potatoes into small cubes and make fried potatoes and add any kind of oil and seasoning you like. Endless possibilities with a potato. Lol 🥔🍟
Yes you are right, would like too, Hi how are you doing, don't mind me by coming by your comment section, thanks and where are you from?
Also today a waitress said do i want american fries or hash browns and I was like whats an american fry? Apparently its a fry thats in a cube square shape
It's not because of the cut. Look it up and you will see.
$101 is great for all that food. Would love to see a tour of the villa.
The same food in Oklahoma, Indiana, Iowa, North Carolina and other states would be about $80-85. (Except we don't need to buy watermelon, we usually grow them, or someone we know does.)
@@jstringfellow1961we live in Wilmington, NC a tourist area. So in our area $101 would be a great price for all that food. We also were recently in Orlando, the last week of April and the first week of May, so the price they paid was actually quite good.
The small orange square on the Walmart shelf tag is usually the price per UNIT (per each, pound, ounce, etc). It's supposed to make price comparisons easier.
Thanks for the info! we'll keep that in mind next time we're in Walmart 👌🙂
Yes please I would love to see the house tour ❤
I love how much more excited about the Pokémon cards your son was than the possibility of a guitar lol
Well in all fairness, they were going to take the guitar away later and they are not likely to do that with Pokemon cards...
@@scottmooredrakoedragon9891 He probably has a guitar at home, they just didn't want to have to ship/take it on the plane but want him to have a guitar while they are in the states. :) I suspect they got him a guitar somewhere else. He just really wanted those cards!
Now that was an experience walking around Walmart with you all! Some items were really expensive compared to here but, some items were cheaper. Enjoy yourselves! 👏👏👏👏👍💗💗💗💗🇬🇧
I’m glad you had fun. Walmart corporation is my employer. I’m on the supply chain side with the Sam’s club. I hope you guys are having a blast.
Watching all this shopping and thinking to myself " did those Bananas and avocados get squished?"
😂😂😂 We've very careful with our bananas and avocados! 🍌🥑🍌🥑
I’m watching you shop and I’m stunned! So many things you said “ wow that’s a great deal” I could only dream of buying. No, I’m not riding the government hand out system. I’m retired and still working a part time job to keep the utilities on. Fresh fruit and veg is a treat for me. Congratulations on being able to holiday in America, I’ll be the one cleaning your villa.
Macaroni is not found on the international aisle, there is a whole separate aisle for that. Goya is the producer of Spanish food, canned beans, spices, marinades, and flavored rice, yellow rice, rice.and beans .
Great video! Just wanted to add, if you get any kind of veggies, you can get these thin plastic bag to put them in (free), they're usually all around the produce aisles.
Thank you for your kind words and thanks for the info! We'll look out for them, next time we're at Walmart 😄
As long as you don't mistake Florida as representative of what the rest of our country is like. 😊
Each region, within each state, varies greatly from one another.
First time watching you, so I don't know how many other states or regions you've been to. ❤
Glad you're here! I was backpacking through the UK back in '88. Lots of people love to criticize us, without ever having even been to our country. 🌳🏔️🌅🏞️🏜️🌋
Basically stay in the red states unless you packed a tent ⛺️
Hey, thanks for your comment 😊
We appreciate your input as even though we've been to the USA across a few different states over the past 20 years and have seen how it can vary, we don't know it as well as a USA resident like yourself, so thanks again 👍
Additionally, we love the country and have no need to criticize. We like and embrace the differences and contrast between nations, and like to learn as we go! 😃
I always buy Vidalia onions. They are a sweet onion and so good.
Why is it every time Brits visit Walmart, they only go to the grocery dept? Just once I wish they would do a full tour and show just exactly what is available in Walmart. Show all of the departments so their fellow Brits know the full scope of the store.
You can easily guess the scope by understanding they usually have at least 1 of everything; from an oil filter, to an eyeglass place, to clothes, electronics, crafts, shoes, housewares, furniture, appliances, etc.
I live in a small city & ours is not even half the size of the super stores, and I am confident to find anything I need or want.
Yeah. Go to the camping section!
Great picks! There are so many significant figures in this line.
Jo Jo is so funny beanssss
2 kids are grown-up, Bob and Katie!
😂😂😂
How fun... I'm going to subscribe. Especially like JoJo😇,.. great video
Welcome to America. You were in a Super Walmart!! 🎉 they are mega Walmarts with absolutely everything. I shop there .. yard home clothes!!
Love your videos, every time I pop to the shop for something I think about your £30 budget for a weekly shop!
Love that!
$100.01 is pretty good for three people. I usually spend around $50.00 a week just for myself. 🙂 🇺🇲
Next time y'all go to get a watermelon, look for one with a yellow spot where it was sitting on the ground in the field. They're usually sweeter and more flavorful
Hope you’re all having an incredible holiday, hope you’re enjoying Disney World too:)) I’d love to see what the villa is like 🩷💙xx

Great vid! Thanks for highlighting how you can in fact eat healthy here. I'm always surprised by how many people I meet overseas who think all we eat is American cheese and sugar bread.😅
Hey, thanks for your comment 😊
We've found it very easy to eat healthy here, and have felt great. I think in the end it comes down to the person choices we choose to make 👍
I absolutely love your video reactions! Your family dynamic is genuine and sweet. You have an incredible son, so patient and respectful; he has a kind heart and is very intelligent. I just subscribed to see what other gems you have. - Greg in Ohio
Loved this video, I think bob was more excited than Katie in Walmart. Not too bad a shop for €100. I would love a villa tour that would be great. I was wondering you were talking about buying something then donating it , if you could and there is a place near you how about buying cat &dog food and donating it to a shelter. A target trip would be fab also. Enjoy your stay guys.
Welcome to Orlando fam 😍
Good to see varied food ,suppose shops bigger over there 😊
As far as scallons, that word in my experience is only encountered on sit down restaurant menus. I almost never hear or see that word in any other situation.
Walmart is not just a supermarket. In fact, only about 20% of the store is for groceries. Foreigners seem to think Walmart is only a food store.
Walmart and Target only added groceries like thirty years ago.
Nope, I'm a Brit and I don't think that at all. I love Walmart for cheaper Disney stuff, clothing, toys etc I LOVE Walmart 😍
Depends on if the Walmart is super center Walmart or just a regular Walmart.
I have had a lot of family from out of the country request a trip to Wal-Mart and not one of them thought it would just be groceries because they have the internet like everyone else, and have seen the videos about the legend that is Wal-mart. We end up spending a really long time going down aisle after aisle, gasp after gasp at the sheer amount of things they can now finally see for themselves in person instead of just in video.
You should have put most of the loose fruit and veggies in the designated bags.
I'm glad you had fun at Walmart .. lol... Its always the tourists that have fun at Walmart .. This is my first time watching your channel .. I enjoyed it and will watch more .. I just have one criticism and it might help you for your next shopping experience in the USA. What we do when we put an item in our cart, and later decide we do not want that item, we either return it to where we got it, or we bring it up to the register with us and tell the cashier that we changed our mind and no longer want that item. They will promptly have someone return it to its proper place, that way frozen bread doesn't end up in the regular bread isle and defrost which renders it unsellable. That is something maybe helpful for any tourist visiting the US or anywhere actually. It makes the store workers job easier and less write offs for food no longer sellable.
Yes please, would love a tour of the villa!!
Welcome to Walmart shopping, we all just go in there for a few items and end up with a cart full. lol =)
That could so easily be us! 😂
You're the British citizen, and I'm the American citizen!
You actually got a great haul. Have fun!
Thank you so much Amy 🤗
I like the justification, "You can't leave it there for that."
We’re glad you like it 😀
A $101 for fresh produce, organic, and vegetarian food in Florida?!?! Wow! I live in rural northwest Oklahoma and going to my nearest Walmart it’d cost me even more than that. I’ve visited friends and family in Florida, but they live in different parts of the state. Maybe because Disney World and Universal, etc, are nearby the Walmart you went to is busy enough that it can keep those foods at a lower price than out here where I live. I definitely think you must have found some good buys on items as well. It’s not hard to do at Walmart (or maybe I think that because my mom is an employee and has been with the company for several decades now so I’m just used to shopping there).
Fun video! Thanks for sharing your experience! The villa looks really nice as well!
It’s got to be the rural location. Those prices are near identical to okc. My son lives west-central and does his shopping when he comes to visit because it’s so much cheaper.
I love ur vids they have helped me massively with my mental health. Can’t wait for more to come ❤
We're glad to hear that 🙏
According to my sons who work at WM, the groceries are to bring in customers to buy everything else thats general merchandise, but they essentially break even on the food
Wow! Thanks for the info. That makes sense as Walmart do so much more than food 😊
I'd love to see the house tour!
Hi ALL, I've been looking for would to SEEING WHAT you get up to . When your on holiday You have to have a treet sometimes . No poregeots for brekferst ? It's all WAYS GOOD to see round other places .Take care and all the best. 😄😄😊👍👍👍
Lidl and Aldi are private-label retailers. They do not sell brand-name products (at least not for the majority of their wares.) That is why they can offer their products at a cheaper price, as they are in effect, generic products. The baked beans that are eaten in the U.K. are actually the traditional recipe for Boston baked beans. There is also pork-&-bans, made with salt-pork or bacon. (And they are hardly "niche" in the U.S.) Heinz, the top-selling brand in the United Kingdom, is an American company based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. By the way, traditional Mexican refried beans are made with "manteca," or lard. Look for fat-free or vegan/vegetarian.
Thanks so much for all of the helpful information! 👍
@@FamilyFreedom My pleasure. You are most welcome. Have continued happy travels.
Love watching this video. That little wooden "surfboard" is actually a skimboard. It doesn't float and typically used to skim across shallow water
One of my life goals is to go to Walmart 🤣 hopefully me and my hubby are off to America in a few years. Great vlog guys 🤘 x
We hope you get to go! ✈️🇺🇸
Fab video, I hope you guys are having a great time 😊
Have a lovely time guys, this looks amazing ❤🎉
Thank you so much Susie 💚🤗💚
Yes for the tour
Amazing video thanks for sharing hope you are having a nice time 😊
This was great Free gang. Please do a tour of your villa. xx
Most food packages have the metric measurements on them right after the imperial ones. So they will say something like 6 oz/170.1 grams. We don't use the metric system but most of our stuff still has them or is converted from them (lots of technical and scientific things use metric and are converted to imperial before they go to the general public). And we also do in some cases use the metric system directly. In the case of food we buy soda in liters and for guns (ironically) we often use millimeter when measuring the caliber of the barrel/round.
Corn tortillas are for enchiladas or cookedf or a tostadad, burritos use flour tortillas!
Hope your enjoying yourselfs, love to have you here, love from Maine Lorna ❤
Thank you Lorna!
Never clicked on a video this fast this is the video I have been waiting for this challenge should be interesting and comparing the prices. Hope you enjoyed shopping at Walmart.🤗💚
Hope you enjoyed it Chloe!

Thanks Fiona, we hope so too as it has been lovely so far ☀️😊

Thanks Sophie, we'll be doing a tour video for you soon 👍
Like the fact that you work together!😊
It's a team effort Susan! 😃
I totally want to see an ALDI trip... And Dollar Tree!!! Omg Katie will not want to leave anything there 😅
😂😂😂
Hope you guys enjoy your shopping at Walmart ❤
Thanks William! 😊
I remember when America was so cheap for food and drinks and to eat out but like everything prices go up like they have here in the uk
Over the past 3 years prices have really shot up, and they're still going up.
Just binge watched your videos and now I can’t stop watching
We appreciate you watching the videos Joshua 🙏😊
Jojo such a lovely boy
Thank you so much! JoJo appreciates the compliment 🤗💚
Hi family freedom hope you are well and having a good day! Interesting video compared to UK shops! Especially the sweet corn and peas.
Take care
Just keep rising 💚🌻🌿
Hey Lana, thanks for your comment 😊
We're happy that you found this interesting, and we look forward to visiting many more places in the US with you guys 👍
Have a great day, just keep rising 💚🌻🌿
Great video guys I hope you are having a nice time in the USA 🇺🇸
We are having a great time here thank you John 🤗
You guys are awesome, totally wish I could have joined you and maybe helped a little with information and getting used to America while learning about the UK, you guys seem like a lovely bunch, great content!❤️
Hi Family Freedom ❤
Hi, Family Freedom, I have been to Walmart in Orlando, it's massive! Great choice to get your groceries from. 👍
Loved this shopping vlog, great to see Walmart, Enjoy your holiday x 1:13
Thank you 🤗
would love to see a tour of your villa xx
Yaaay I have been looking forward to this video! Im very curious can you tell the difference of quality/taste in our food here compared to at home?
Hey Shelby, thanks for tuning in and for commenting 👍
That's a good question. It's still early days so hard to tell right now, but so far nothing has jumped out as being better or worse 😊
Great video guys. Really interesting to see a US supermarket. Would love to share as much of your holiday that you are willing to. But don't have all work and no play. ❤
Thanks Lindsay. It's an absolute pleasure to be able share our holiday and lives with you, and for it to br so gratefully received 🙏😊👌
Katie I was shopping saw a top on discount thought of you and said you can’t let for that price. So I brought it.
The US is SO expensive for groceries compared to the UK, one bonus for the UK 🇬🇧. 😊
Would love to,see around your villa please ❤
You must love cooking to cook on your holidays. I absolutely refuse to cook on holidays because I hate it! It's my chance to have a break. It looks like America is no more expensive than Australia but they have a better vegan range.
Yes please I would love a tour ❤
Coming up!
Yes I would love to see the villa🎉🎉
Yes
You guys should go at 11pm and youll have yourself a little show 🙂
If you want to know the better deals you want to look at the price in the red box. It breaks the price down to a smaller weight.
Thanks for the tip!
organic is normally always going to be more expensive because it's extra work taking care in the fields also water melons are not weighed pretty much Walmart buys that that load and it all comes in that box that your son picked out from, you can't really weigh otherwise you will be there forever
Hi from Glasgow Scotland 😊😊
Hi Patricia! 👋🏴
Funny watching you shop in our stores! Oh, BTW, the grapes were per pound... not $2.48 for the whole bag. You probably paid like $8 for that entire bag.
Also, for the most part we call "green onions" green onions. They are sometimes called scallions in recipes for some reason. However, I've never heard spring onions.
$101.85? That's pretty good actually. I thought you were on the way to over $200!
Enjoy your stay on the U.S. I've always wanted to go to England! Maybe someday.
Similar to how you refer to the shopping carts as a "trolly", some areas in America calls it a "buggy".
Walmart is a grocery store / clothing store but I wouldn't say Walmart is our biggest grocery store because it is not I live in Texas so our biggest grocery store that just sells nothing but groceries is H-E-B or Kroger
Get the garlic texas toast!! it's just garlic bread but so good... I forgot about it! Haven't seen it since I left Canada
Hi Katie, Bob and JoJo live not live from overcast Scotland. Another awesome grocery shopping video Family Freedom and love 🥰 it (even though they got lost ). I have started to eat Pot Noodles (it's due to Katie's bad influence 😂). Love ❤Bob, 💕 Katie & 🧡 JoJo.
Hey David, thanks for watching and commenting! 🙏
We're glad to hear that you have begun your pot noodle journey!! 😂
Hi sweeties loving the videos just a thought you could have made your own tortilla chips from the bag of 80 wraps that's all they are made of and then used the rest for the quesadillas xx
Yes, you are right, would like too, Hi how are you doing, don't mind me by coming by your comment section, thanks and nice to communicate with you as friends but where are you from?
"Corn" is assumed to be Sweet Corn as that's the only Corn humans can eat. Field Corn is what they feed livestock, and I think they use to make other Corn products. But for regular Corn consumption, we as humans just eat sweet corn. My father grew up on a farm in the '40s and '50s.
Thanks for the info! 👍🌽🌽🌽
I reckon they figured out the "baked beans" bit by now. British baked beans are US pork n beans, without the pork.
Yes please to the tour
Coming up soon Susan! 👌
Most of the time, the "reduced" items aren't reduced at all. They're the same price as before. Also, inflation has hit the US a lot unfortunately. That's why everything is more expensive
I highly suggest you visit Washington, DC and see how America began and how we became the nation we are. Cheerio.
Thank you so much for the suggestion John! Washington DC sounds amazing, we love learning about the history of different countries 💙🇺🇸
I was laughing how you kept saying how big everything was! 😂 You should try Whole Foods. Since Amazon bought it, the prices aren’t as bad and they have loads of fun vegan options.
Ah cool, we look forward to going there! 👍
Would love to see the villa please!
Video coming soon Joanna! 👌
For all you got, that is fairly reasonable in USA right now!
That's good to know, thanks Brian 👍
I'm so excited you're here in the states. 🤗 Shopping in stores I go to. For the amount of food you got that is actually a great price. I also like Costco, Aldi and Trader Joe's for fun specialty items, good on prices. Would love to see a tour of the place. 😊
I mentioned that they should do Aldi's as a comparison (their Vegan selection is also much bigger) and that I think they'd enjoy Trader Joe's.
Hey Karen, thanks for your comment and for your feedback! It's good to hear that you thought that we got a good amount! 😊
Thanks too for the store recommendations, we definitely plan to visit those places 👌
@@FamilyFreedom
You're welcome Katie and Bob hope you two and Jojo of course are enjoying your holiday 🤗
There should be clear plastic bags by the fruit section for your 2 avocados and 1 onion 😆 normally we don't put them in the carts loose like that, always in bags.
