A mother-of-six has revealed how she only grocery shops for her family once every six weeks – spending just $1400 on feeding the entire family during that time.

Nyssa Lehane, husband Darryl and their six children moved to remote Queensland from Brisbane four years ago after a life of running franchises up to 70 hours a week

every six weeks, with a budget of $1400, Lehane makes the four-hour trip to Brisbane.

"I go to Aldi, Coles and Woolworths and check out all the half-price specials. If need be, I will also go to Bunnings and Kmart," she said.

"After staying the night at my mum's, I will go to the fruit and veg store, the butcher and Costco.

"Costco is usually where the majority of our shop is done."

These are cut and paste snippets from the Herald.

Im sure if we had an Aldi and Coles etc. to go to we could slash our grocery bills to
so I dont really see the point of this story.

Probably just in Auckland though, at least to start with.
