Meg really wants her to go back to her place by the end of the month! They sound like immature teenaged girls. On youtube. Please. Amanda can do so much better than hanging around the likes of Meg.
Agree about the Meg thing. I really like Amanda and I find her very relatable on a personal level. Her boys are the cutest things, and her husband isn’t a total creeper—actually seems like a really nice guy. The Meg obsession legit drives me crazy! I watched Meg way back until she moved to the rental house, and it was there that I just couldn’t do it anymore—her house now is ridiculous along with her personality. I honestly wonder how anyone could be legitimately BFF’s with Meg as she seems very narcissistic. I hope it doesn’t ruin Amanda. :| It seems like it just might.

I was totally underwhelmed with her video today. Her hair looked really greasy, she looked over tired and how many times can a person slo-mo sink cleaning?? Maybe I'm just over these moms already. Time to move on!

I haven’t watched yet. I like when her videos (or any YouTubers videos) are sort of mixed. I do enjoy watching the cleaning, but I like when they do other things too. The sink thing is getting annoying. It’s like porno for housewives.

Why does she do such huge hauls? Is it to flaunt money? Haven't seen today's video yet and not even sure I want to! lol

To respond to both of your comments I always wonder why she buys so much crap! And I hate the marathon cleaning videos. I like new content. Not lazy recycled content. I liked Amanda’s videos for a while but she is booooring lately. I don’t care about the grove products or watching her clean the sink in slow motion.

I noticed on my YT home page that she is selling a planner with her channel name on it for $50 and has the audacity to give her subs a $5 off code that she will make money off of. At least half of the commenters say they can't afford the planner. She then replies with a and nothing more. I'm not sure why this irks me so much. These ladies are always trying to sell the most ridiculous overpriced junk just to make another dollar off their subs that can't afford it. I don't get it. I refuse to buy something overpriced with someone else's name on it when I can buy something much cuter at Target for $20 or less....and I can put my own name on it.

Want a planner? DOLLAR STORE! All these YTers merch prices are WAY over-priced. I can't afford a tee shirt, sweater, cup, travel mug or whatever they all have out there all for the sake of their NAME being plastered on them! They are not celebrities and even if they were, so not getting $ from me! Amanda does the whole "Support small businesses" spiel on instagram all the time. Sure, if you can afford it, go for it! Personally, I'd rather support something I can see, touch and gauge for myself the quality if it's really worth it. Now I've bought some cleaning products because some said it "smelled great!" To them, but when I bought that item to try, it stank. So ya, can't trust their judgement on everything, either!

I briefly saw her mention a planner but $50?!?!? Good lord. I think a planner is at least something useful, unlike the cheap shirts and jewelry others sell, but she is delusional to charge that much. I can get a Day Designer for around that price. Hell I’ve had the same planner for five years and you buy inserts for it. That was $60.

I think Amanda is trying too hard to be part of the in crowd on YouTube. I’m not saying she needs to be either. I used to watch her and like her because she was different than the Megs of the world but now she is desperately trying to be like them and in my opinion, failing.

Wow, so no video from her yet this week! What's going on, I wonder? Is she pulling a Meg? Less work = more $? Supposedly? lol

I watched Living with Cambriea's recent video. When she put her hair in a ponytail (like Amanda does) she had the caption "you know it's getting real when the hair goes up!" (also, like Amanda does!) So, who did it first? I've been watching Amanda a whole year now and only just started watching Living with Cambriea because she does hoarder cleaning because, let's be real, watching people clean already clean houses can get SO BORING! lol But the YTers who imitate each other is annoying, too!

So now she's taking to instagram to post a goofy picture of herself (why do her pics make her look cross-eyed?) to talk about her "hate comments". Um, I read ALL of her comments and none of them were hate comments! Following in Ashley's footsteps?! What do these moms expect when posting videos of their lives?

I don't think it's hate if someone talks about her weight. She claims to eat no sugar, bread or dairy because of her Hashimotos. Yet she is still the same size. I would lose weight like crazy if I gave all of that up. :?

Oh, for sure!

I guess it's part of the "if you don't complain about your haters, you're not a true Youtuber" cult.

I did catch 4 "actually"s in the beginning when she was talking about Liam's pajamas and why he's in them. She must've caught herself with all the actuallys and stopped. Didn't notice it as much with the rest of the video. lol Now it's the term "these ones". Um, just say "these". Where did these people get their education from?? It really boggles my mind!

Is the term "prepped out" something everyone says? That's the term she uses when she's talking about prepping her fruits and veggies.

I think it’s actually refreshing to see a YouTuber who isn’t stick thin, eating pasta all day long, claiming to be some fitness, healthy eating warrior. I had a friend in high school with thyroid issues. She ate very very simple, veggies mostly and couldn’t lose a single pound. It affects everyone differently. I don’t think there is any value in her acknowledging that there were hate comments, when it’s so very clear she has deleted anything that is slightly negative.

So where does she NOT put essential oils?? In her recent cleaning video she says she puts it into her vacuum canister! I hope she washed it, dried and then let the oil DRY because that's a moisture risk for the motor right there! Putting it down the sink seems like such a waste. Just use frozen lemon juice! Oh, the things people do! lol

Does anyone get her blog emails? She is using baking soda in the carpet as a "hack". BAKING SODA KILLS VACUUM CLEANER MOTORS!!!!

I also LOVE how she says she's giving herself grace as an excuse not to film videos. :D Her "fans" must be going nuts and unsubscribing for lack of content!

I’m not understanding why there is such a huge lack in content from her lately. I get taking your birthday off, or a weekend. I get that. However, you run the show and you own your own business. Why doesn’t she have backup videos to post when she does take a break? My son had a small kid’s channel at one point and we would film and edit within a few days so that I could have a stack of videos to publish. I typically kept one back to have in case we had to skip a filming day or something.

She could easily film a few recipe videos, dinner recipes, breakfast staples, a ten minute clean up, age appropriate kid’s chores video, film a quick grocery haul or candle haul, and keep them on the back burner to post when you have a specia holiday or need a sick day.

Right, you'd think that she could plan/film for days she is so busy/tired/lazy/or whatever is going on. lol

I watched her new one and when she films in real time for a few seconds, she moves SO SLOW! I had to cringe at that huge shelf she put above the bathtub held up by only 2 screws. Really? I could not relax in a soak with a chance of that thing falling on top of me! Did not like her new ideas. Seems she always has an over abundance of bins, too. I get that they're dollar store and super cheap but that is alot!

Another hook, line and sinker for a VLOG channel!!! Seriously, she can barely keep up what she has now, the vlog channel is gonna tank. Especially when youtube is already stating they're going to demonetize family/kids channels! Why are these moms so dumb?
