Audrey Mitchell, known on Instagram as @Nappies_n_lipgloss is a hugely popular content creator with over 15,000 followers on the platform.
And she showed how it’s possible to feed a large family for days at a time while sticking to a budget.
She said: “Come along with me to my local Dunnes where I’m going to show you what I picked up to feed a family of two adults and four children for three days for €26.
“That’s less than €1.50 per person.”
To start, Audrey picked up lots of veggies including carrots, broccoli, and a bag of spuds which all came out to less than €10.
Up next, the content creator bought eggs, a large chicken, stuffing, rice, soy sauce, and a bag of frozen peas — which all together came out to only €26.
After buying all of the goods, the mum stuffed her chicken and cooked it with the vegetables and potatoes along with Yorkshire puddings she had in her cupboard.
She said: “This meal does four children and two adults and we have it for two days.”
For the third day, Audrey uses the rest of her shopping to cook egg-fried rice and chicken.
She began the meal by softening some onion and butter, then adding it to the cooked rice along with some leftover chicken and two eggs.
After whisking the eggs into the rice, the mum added frozen peas and soy sauce.
This meal feeds the family of six for the third day, all while sticking to a strict budget.
She added: “Serve that to four children and two adults with a fried egg.”
People have taken to the comment section to share their thoughts on the savvy shopping.
One person wrote: “Great savings.”
This comes after an Irish mum shared her top laundry hacks, and they have gone viral.
Mary, who posts under the username @mammiesofireland shared the viral video on TikTok last week.
Mary told her followers: “This is the biggest game changer, it will change how you feel and view white clothing.
“As you can see, this jumper I’m wearing is years old and it is beaming white.”
Mary tells her followers to add a kettle of hot water to the dispensary of the washing machine during the cycle.
She says that this will make the wash more effective and more efficient, while still making the white clothes brighter.
