Can yous do an update on your ttc journey xx
Cosco as always
Farmfoods is amazing for bulk buying certain products. Very good prices too xx
Costco do a delivery service now.. its of no use to me there's only my son and I 😮
It would be really interesting to see a comparison with costco and aldi/lidl, for those of us that can’t afford to Tesco shop x
Hi glad your back great video. The way I save is buy lots of different veg that has been reduced cook all up portion it out put into freezer bags or tubs and freezer the lot and just microwave when needed so does save the pennines
Costco is great for fuel too! Cheaper prices than supermarkets/garages. I made back my membership cost in savings from fuel alone after just a few trips :)
Great tip, hadn't even occurred to me about getting fuel from them too. Definitely worth thinking about when I get a new car.
Depends on how far you live though, mine is a 40 mile round trip and the savings work out to be so small it's not worth the effort
Great information for anyone trying to save some money 👍 Aldi has been a life saver for me and my family
Love aldi last week we tryed lidle in liverpool much cheaper than aldi
Great money saving tips! Thank you!
Im in Adelaide, Australia and I definitely think buying in bulk at Costco is definitely cheaper
That's a really interesting video, I'm always looking for ways to save money so I bet that will help a lot of people, my mum used to work in a kitchen for a masonic rooms so she had a membership but as we're all vegan, it'd make more sense to go back there, then split the items between us which would still save a lot of money!
Me and my boyfriend go to Costco about every 4 weeks as he managed to get a membership through his boss from work. We love getting the cakes for all the family.
Supermarket morrisons is cheaper I don't drive I live in hampshire and cosco I like to try but it too far away for me to get to great video and seeing jamie and more videos for money saving
Great tips Katie!! Thank you 💚💚
You're very welcome Angeliki 🤗
Btw Costco sells tyres for a much cheaper price than normal and they normally have them in stock for fitting the same day. :)
Great tip 👌 thank you 😊
Aidan birthday gifts is like an advent calendar
Costco fuel is actually a really good price too well worth looking at and we found ut cheaper to buy cheese from there nit sure if vegan cheese is or not x
I've found farmfoods is also great and a cheaper alternative on items than cost co if you wish to bulk buy xx
Hi from NZ .. really interesting blog we have a duopoly with two major supermarket chains ( who own the four supermarkets between them) and prices are ridiculously high.
Costco is opening a massive store in Auckland this year… so looking forward to lower prices per 100g for food etc & cheaper non-food items
So glad that they're opening a Costco near you 👌🙂
My parents used disposables away from home and the cloth one at home as nd that wad back in rhe 1970's with the pins. And I chsnge my first diaper at age 3 when helping mom with my little brother. And dad said I did better than most adults since I was diapering/nappying my little brother.
That's so cool you were doing that from 3! Thanks for sharing
You need a big pantry to hold all those large packages.
Watching 👀 your video 📹
P. S We also buy Method sprays in Costco. Works out half price.
Loved this!! Think Jamie should do her own channel!! Xx
If you like Pampers nappies try Aldi nappies they have been tested as better than Pampers.
Really appreciate you letting us know, thank you 😊
That’s very true
I like the cool stuff at Costco so much stuff to look at but I love the chocolate 🍫 to bye 🍫 I like chocolate 🍫 😋
Yes they have so many different sweets and chocolate at Costco 🍫😋🍫😋🍫😋
Hay you have hands😂old way.I am from IOWA USA.I don't have one we're I'm at.Everything high.Have fun later😍😂
Great deals! I miss going to Costco but I spent waaaay to much when I do go. Haha 😵💫🤑
That's the only thing you can end up spending so much in there 💰💰💰
great video guys keep up the good work from ireland
Thank you 🙏
@@FamilyFreedom you're welcome
We have costco in australia
Love this video I hope Jamie is getting on okay with her lessons. I just passed my test on Friday and it's so good to have the extra freedom
Congratulations 🎉🍰💫🎈🚗
Large tubs of spices are not always the best way to go as once opened they have a fairly short shelf life.
That's a good point 👌It's better if you share with a few friends and split the cost 😊
I can not imagine anyone in the USA watching as the prices and the weights are totally different.
Yes we've heard how different the prices are compared to the USA, but we still get a lot of viewers from there who like to watch out of interest 😃🇺🇸
@@FamilyFreedom I moved back to England after many years in the USA...you are never too old to make a big mistake...Yes, the prices here are ski high.
Hello from BC Canada I'm so happy that you get to experience the Costco wholesale experience in the UK we found that the same difference between Walmart and you're Tesco's Costco always won out you save so much over the monthly shopping but like you guys we have to travel 1.5 hrs each way and you still save once you add your fuel costs on the top so thank you for your platform and sharing with everyone please keep the awesome vlogs coming thank you
🇨🇦 🤗
Costco is awesome! I love a good shopping challenge :)
If you want to keep on a budget you can buy the shop card. (For like $100 or whatever denomination.) a nonmember can buy the shop card with a member’s # and can walk in solo without the member. I do that. In USA Costco is 10 mins from home so convenient.
Can’t do that in uk
Don’t knock olives until you try them, Jaimie. I love olives!!
You should look at the Costco cards for getting money back, On the executive membership you get Annual 2% Reward
Thanks 👌🙂
Been busy working , off at the moment for half term!! But i also naw sell crystals 🔮 as a part time job too!! Looking forward to summer, so i can go walking over Wimbledon common alot!! 😀😀!! Another great vlog guys!! 🥰😃 i go costcos and get my bin bags and washing gel and washing up liquid. Last months for us a family of 4 😀 oh and the 3 guinea pigs of course🤣🤣, thats why i need bin bags for the waste :) 😃
Hey love your videos just going to say another way to save money over time on nappies is use reusable we use them and we've saved hundreds of pounds
That's a fantastic money saving tip, we used to use them with JoJo :) So good for the environment too.
I just need to convince Jamie 😂
Yes I loved using cloth diapers on my daughter too!
Wow can't believe the savings! It would be interesting to see how it compares to Aldi prices. My finances have changed recently and I'm always looking for tips to save money. I would love to see a money saving tips and tricks video from you guys if that would be possible?
We do have some more money saving videos coming soon 💷
We'd love to do more price comparison videos too 🙂
Kirkland is Costco own brand. That's why you can't find it on tesco.

We are all good here thank you Greg 😊 How are you?
Hi there how are u OK mate keep up the good work on here mate am a biggest fan of u do a good job on here mate am doing OK
I buy from there and Xmas we got amazing toys for our to disabled children who are 2 and 4 we saved loads and some are books and e educational things and some clothes for both but tonight we were in Tesco I got 4 outfits eac and payed under 50 And the full price would of been £195 the boys thing start from 2.00 and up to13yrs
nothing to do with this but you should do a crystal collection video
I do love crystals:)
We would love to 💎
I’d love to go to Cost Co 😍 I don’t know why I just love the idea of bulk buying ❤️
Unfortunately we don’t have one in Ireland 😣
And I did the same thing for my other half for his 30th birthday that Jamie did! 😂 I called it the birthday advent calendar 😂 went down so well! ❤️ soooo much work though!
Hi Shauna, We hope they open a Costco near you in the future 🙏
Hope you're other half had a great birthday 🎂
Big love to the family
Me too @LittleBitofSunshine I’m from Ireland
Would love a Costco too
Jojo Freedom would ask Sienna Fizz, Ethangamer, Suziegamer, Emily Tube, Alex Tubefun Karina and Ronald Calor to go on a collaboration date video with him in Costco after COVID-19 is gone.
There olives
Hi I love Costco hope you r all ok xxxx
We're all good, hope you are too :)
I sometimes find that Costco is very big branded so lacks own brands that are often cheaper, sometimes it can also be wasteful to buy more than you need which I’ve been guilty of in the past, it’s also a lot of plastic packaging like you said which I’m trying to avoid a bit. Just depends on individual circumstances like how big your family is and how much of the items you use, I find it’s very good for store cupboard things like toilet paper and cans. It’s just about being selective and not getting blown away by it and buying everything lol
Hello, #LiveButNotLive from SC, USA!
We all got Covid this and last week. It was great! 👍
Hope you're all doing ok 🙏
Hi freedom family my name is janine I live on my own with two budgie call buley and and Louis I watch your video love janine
Hi Janine 👋😊
When are you going to go to see family fizz
Good question! Very soon 🙂
It's my sister's 30th that, so I've left her some money for her takeaway
I'm good thanks. You all?
Happy birthday to your Sister 🎉🎂
Yes we're all good here thank you 🤗
😥 to long since the last video. I know my daughter has a Costco card will get her to check if they can take a visitor. Being only myself in household, buying in bulk especially some fresh items, I would have wastage. Not being able to eat so many of something. With the toilet paper you said you don't use? I have Bidda can't spell lol. It does cut back on toilet paper by a lot but doesn't eliminate it. Due to covid there has at time been hard to purchase toilet paper but did not concern me yah . But still worth giving Cosco ago.
When are you heading on a trip again. My family father's side come from Leicester, would you consider visiting there.
Cheers & blessings from Victoria Australia 🇦🇺🐨💗💖💗
Fingers crossed we will be heading off on another adventure in a month 🚐 We would love to visit Leicester at some point :)
Big love from the UK 💚
I have my washing machine broken down, and my freezer broken down. my cooker hood down, and my light fridge is out he he. i get them fixed in December can't be bothered right now. but i spent an hour fixing the washing me. im on middle class income, not bragging, just can't be bothered with machines and freezer oh my spare shower broke too, i have 1 spare of everything now hehehe I love costco but don't drive, but i go with my cousin every now and again.😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh no! Why do things always break down at the same time. We had the same thing a few months back and then our van broke down 😣
Glad you're able to get them fixed 😊💚
When do you post new videos?
Plus you need a membership!
Yes you need a Costco membership which is about £30 in the UK 🙂
I forgot you need a specific job, you cant just walk in and get a card but you can use the food court
Do you not need to have a Business or be a professional to have/get a membership at Costco ?
Didn’t think just everybody could walk in and membership?
In the UK you can become a member of Costco without a having a business 🙂
You are right if not got business you have to match one of the professions on the list
Does the soda over there have high fructose corn syrup in them? They do big time in the states.
Good question Susan :) We don't drink soda but I don't think it does. I do know that there are hundreds of food additives that are banned In food here but not in the States :)
@@FamilyFreedom I stopped drinking soda's too. I mainly drink water, tea and have become addicted to Kombucha. Way too much of the food sold in the states is over loaded with HFCS. A couple a days ago I went on Walmarts website to see if I could find any sweet pickle relish, The only one I found was a brand I did not know, which would have been fine except I had to buy 6 jars not just one.
Buying in bulk isnt for everyone. Never had a problem with money. I can get what i want. But seeing people shopping calculating if they can afford it is sooo sad. Ended up paying the last item a lady couldnt afford….
Aww that is so kind of you 🙏💚
Can you guys record and upload your videos in 1080p resolution instead of 720p? The image quality would look far better in High Definition!
Money saving tip do not feel trapped by a supermarket points card 👎
You can't get a Costco card just like that there has to be a criteria.
This channel is like The Doherty Dozen .
#livebutnotlive from Pennsylvania... I am doing okay. We don't have a Costco here but we have a Sam's Club which is the same type of thing. Fun fact: I used to work as one of the sample people at Sam's Club.
Hi which Costco did you go to? I live not too far away from Costco Chingford. I got a card last year. Most things are cheaper especially food. We've found the Waters, snacks and fizzy drinks are really cheap. We sometimes get a lift. If not we take 3 buses to get there and back. If we go by bus we take with a buggy to put the shopping on. I usually keep a seeweed packet by my bed.
Great video and saving but not for people who live alone ok for families,and I don’t know why you may know they have stopped doing small cans so you carnt get a small tin of peas for example or beans all big ones and it’s not fair for people like me and elderly who don’t need large tins.we don’t have Costco which is a shame ,when I was a brownie leader we could go to a cash& carry which is simula but like Jamie said you have to be a member you just carnt pop in when you want.love to all god bless.xx

Hi 👋😊

It's about £30 to become a Costco member :)
Pampers do test on animals unfortunately..incase you didn't know
I did not know that 😭 Thank you for letting us know 🙏
@@FamilyFreedom I didn't want to come across rude , just thought it was best to let you know :)
If you don't use toilet rolls, what do you use? 🥴
They did a video about it a while back. JoJo uses toilet roll still but Bob and Katie wash in the shower. I presume this is only whilst at home as no option for this in public toilets.
How exactly would low income people afford to shop at Costco lad? Starve for a month? Prices gram per gram are surely better. But because you NEED to buy bulk. You're overall paying much more. Which low income people cannot do
Very true! Costco is only cheaper if you have the money to buy the products in bulk 👌
This is a bit silly Katie.
Supermarkets and shops buy their produce in bulk from the wholesaler, as do restaurants and food catering establishments. They then go on to add a mark up on the produce so they can make some money to run their shop.
What this seems to say is, which is cheaper, the wholesaler or the retailer. The answer is obvious before you even go shopping. Tesco are not going to sell stuff at the same price they buy it from the wholesaler for. You could argue that you could go to the farmer and buy the same produce that Costco are selling, for half the price. But you would have to buy wheelbarrows full of the stuff.
The real key to all of this, is go to Costco and try and buy 250g of tomatoes. Or one can of baked beans. You can't.
My argument is that Costco is not environmentally friendly because it encourages customers to buy more than they need. Particularly with perishable goods, it is very likely that a household will throw half of what they bought away, simply because they cannot eat 2kg of tomatoes before they go off.
Hi Mark, thanks for your comment.
Yes I agree Katie is very silly 😂👌
You make some good points to think about :)
Also I don't know about others but we never waste any food, if you're going to buy fresh food in bulk it's better to do it with a friend so nothing is wasted - Bob :)
