I've got two kids & my food shop is usually so pricey…I've found a place where I can get a weekly haul for only £11

A MOTHER has revealed that normally her food shop is so expensive, but now she's found a place that's super cheap.

Molly Champion, 23, a mum-of-two under three explained that now she goes to Heron Foods every week and "raids" the place for cheap snacks.

The content creator, who is mother to Ember-Oak and Darla-Dove, explained that she now gets her weekly haul for just £11 - including drinks, cookies, crisps and even jars of baby food.

Showing off her impressive haul online, Molly shared a clip in her local Heron Foods, leaving many open-mouthed.

Heron Foods has hundreds of locations across the UK and prides itself on offering "big-name bargains for less".

Heron Foods was a family business until it was bought by B&M Stores in 2017.

Since then the company has expanded rapidly and employs over 5000 people across 300 stores.

The majority of locations are in the North East and Midlands but the network is increasing, with some stores already in Cardiff and Luton.

Showing off the cut-price buys in the less-known bargain supermarket, the food fan and savvy mum said: "If you want to know how I only managed to spend £11 on all this baby food, keep watching.

"If you don't know me, my name is Molly and I've got two little girls under three.

"Judging by that sentence, the food shop is very expensive, so every other week I go into my local Heron Foods and I raid the place."

Molly picked up baby food jars, cookies and biscuits, before nabbing branded juice and sweets.

She explained: "Starting out with the baby food jars and then we picked up the honey teddy bear cookies because everyone was raving about this in my last video.

"I picked up two boxes of the Alphabet Biscuits, the Heinz juice is coming home with me straight away and another thing I haven't seen are these little gummy sweets.

"I did a quick shop and then headed to the checkout."

These dates from this shop have at least a month on them, this will do the girls for just over a week

Upon arriving home, the bargain hunter continued: "We finished our shopping so let's do a breakdown of what we got - we got two boxes of Alphabet biscuits, they've got five packs in each - 39p.

"The big pack of Honey Teddy Bear cookies were £1, and a pack of the Organix tomato crisps were 39p.

"Four boxes of the Organix Fruity Pic-Nix, again 39p, individual bags of Organix crisps, these were 29p each.

"The Heinz drinks were two for £1 - the girls absolutely love these drinks.

"Two small packs of Mandarin, 49p each, banana baby porridge, I think it was 39p.

"Six Hipp Organic jars, again these were 39p each or three for £1, so I picked up six for £2.

"I got the tomato and ham pasta bake and the courgette and potatoes - I mainly use these to add in to sauces for Darla.

"That is everything I got from the shop for just over £11!"

Thrilled with her finds, Molly then advised her followers: "If you haven't been to Heron Food yet, run to your local one!"

Molly later confirmed to Fabulous that a normal weekly shop elsewhere would cost her almost £30, making Heron Foods far more affordable for her as a young mum.

The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username raisingemberanddarla , has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 61,300 views.

Social media users rushed to the comments to share their thoughts on Heron Foods, with many praising the cheap chain.

One person said: "Heron's is magic!"

Another added: "I love Heron."

A third commented: "Absolutely love Heron! I need to go have a look at a different one near me as the one I've been in before hardly has any snacks like that!"

Whilst someone else simply penned: "Runs to Heron."

At the same time, one user wrote: "When bulk buying for a baby be careful in Heron - make sure you check the dates.

"Very often it's cheap as it goes out of date very soon, so it's great for a week's shop but be careful bulk buying or in advance."

To this, Molly then confirmed: "These dates from this shop have at least a month on them, this will do the girls for just over a week."
