‘I would hate to be the cashier’ people say as mum-of-11 shows off FOUR full trolleys & the receipts have people gasping
A WOMAN has left people totally stunned after showing off a typical shopping trip for her 11 children.
Alicia Dougherty, a mum-of-11 from the US, who previously left people stunned at her ‘chaos hour’ routine, explained that she had four trolleys loaded to the brim after visiting her local Walmart.
She stocked up on all things from bedding to sun cream and also nabbed fruit, vegetables and a whole trolley full of meat and freezer bits.
Posting online under the username Dougherty Dozen, Alicia, who is based in New York, shared a clip showing off her shopping with the caption ‘It’s gonna be a fun summer!’
Alicia, who wakes up at 4am to ensure that everything is in order for her children before they head off to school, then showed off her “Walmart haul for my family of 13.”
The busy mum explained: “In cart one I stocked up on some sunblock for summer and got some toiletries for Alex who’s travelling to South Dakota this week.”
She nabbed bug spray and presents for two upcoming birthday parties, as well as “nine sets of bedding, plus towels” for their upcoming beach holiday.
Alicia then left the trolley at the front of the shop and proceeded to fill the second one, as she added: “I got some gift bags for the birthday parties, bleach spray, then I got Gatorade and sodas to restock the kids’ mini fridge down by the pool.”
As well as this, she nabbed snacks, crackers, chips, bread and bagels, before leaving the trolley at the front and grabbing the next one.
For trolley three, Alicia nabbed canned and jarred items,as well as baking supplies.
She continued: “I got a bunch of fruit, including apples, oranges, grapes, bananas, berries, and melon, and salt, potatoes, and then I grabbed some vegetables before leaving that cart up front.”
Finally, for the fourth and final trolley, Alicia explained: “Cart four I started with the dairy products, creamers, milks, yogurts, and a bunch of cheese, and then over to the meat section – I got chicken drumsticks for grill night, steak for taco Tuesday, and meatballs for the meatball bake.”
Not only this, but she also bought freezer items, including French fries, chicken tenders, dinosaur nuggets and ice pops.
At the end of the video, Alicia showed off her two huge shopping receipts – one of which came to a total of $1,353.35 [£1,066], whilst the other was $235.47 [£185].
