Ep 155. 2025 Homesteading Deals I Would Actually Buy
If you’re feeling tempted by all the Prime Day and early Black Friday sales but aren’t sure what’s actually worth it for your homestead — this one’s for you. I’m taking a quick break from my homestead organization series to share what I’ve been seeing lately in the world of deals and steals, what’s worth adding to your cart, and what can probably wait until next year.
In this episode, I’m talking about some of my favorite brands, the types of products that actually go on sale (and stay good quality), and how to make a wishlist that keeps you from getting sucked into the scroll.
What We Chat About:
Why GreenStalk’s current clearance sale is the best I’ve ever seen
How to tell if a “deal” is really a deal (hint: check regular prices first!)
When to stock up on grow bags, seeds, and raised beds
Power backup systems and what brands to trust
Kitchen tools and cast iron cookware that actually go on sale
How I use wishlist shopping to avoid impulse buys
The one item still on my wishlist — the Presto electric pressure canner
My Best Tips:
Don’t feel pressured to buy everything right now — there will always be another sale.
Sign up for your favorite seed companies’ newsletters to catch those early November discounts.
Create a wishlist before you browse so you don’t get distracted by random “lightning deals.”
Quality over quantity — especially when it comes to garden gear and tools that need to last.
