“I’m a mom of 5 and take just 12 trips to the grocery store in a year”

A mom has revealed how she does just one food shop a month for her family of seven.

Meghan and her husband Marcus live with their five children, Israel, 9, Ezra, 7, Johanna, 5, Zion, 3, and Nola, 1, in the US.

With such a large family, Meghan is always on the hunt for the best bargain buys without having to pop to the shops every week.

Instead, she makes one trip to two supermarkets a month to stock her cupboards full.

She shared a video of the family’s enormous haul on her YouTube channel, Planting Birches.

Meghan explained: “We go to the store once a month and get all the things.

The mom visited two stores in total, Sam’s Club and Meijer with the help of her sister.

Meghan spent a total of $515, on groceries and household items for the month.

She came away with a five-pound bag of apples, 4 pounds of chocolate chips for baking, six packs of spaghetti, 8 pounds of rice, 2 liters of apple sauce, 12 pounds peanut butter and four packs of crackers from Sam’s Club just to name a few.
