Transcript

Cross border shopping as a Canadian in the US I like to do this at least once a year with some friends to stock up on my favorite things So let's get into how we spent our day We first stopped at Wal-Mart Zara was honestly so clean It also has some cute stores like Anthropologie and free people And oh my god, I thought that looked like a nice one from Lavelle Then this was the big one for me today was going to Chili's I was so excited I needed to try a triple dipper We honestly all ended up getting them But my triple dipper was the Nashville hot mod The honey chipotle crispers and the Southwestern egg rolls I got such a good cheese pull So I was I was happy My day was better I thought it was pretty good Just I think I could only eat it once a year because it probably took some days off my life But that's okay Next we went to Trader Joe's This is literally my air one I am so jealous We don't have one here Shout out to Michelle for also taking the cutest clips of me Looking at the food My goal from Trader Joe's was to get the soup dumplings because I absolutely love those They're version of Takis are amazing And then I got some other stuff Hall will be coming soon And then our last stop of the day was Target We just checked out all the things that they had They have so many different sodas This popcorn by Khloe Kardashian My main goal at Target though was to get the Coconut Cult and Chobani And that is exactly what I did I stocked up on it And after that the goods were secured We headed back to the car We stopped at Dunkin' as well before heading home They had the park drink And it was so great We had a great day
