The full-time working mum admitted that her family “always want to chip in” to help with the cost of the food shopping, but she finds it “really hard to know what to ask them for”. The content creator headed to Aldi and Tesco to stock up, as she loaded her trolleys full of snacks and food for the festive season.
But Abi, who is from the UK, left people hugely divided, with some even calling her "tight", as she said: “I charge my family to come to Christmas dinner at my house - does everybody do this? I'm intrigued to know what you guys do. “I'm very grateful that my family wants to contribute because it's gonna be expensive.”.
Abi shared that she is having 10 people stay at her home from Christmas Eve to Boxing Day, and will be providing food for all three days. She continued: “I don't wanna overcharge or undercharge so I'm gonna go do all of the shopping, I'm gonna go to Aldi and Tesco.”.
Abi did a big Christmas shop in Aldi, where she stocked up on 8p carrots, parsnips and potatoes. She also nabbed turkey gravy, red cabbage, a smoked gammon joint, goose fat, cranberry sauce and stuffing. As her family are staying for a few days, she made sure to stock up on quiche, dips, bacon, crackers and croissants too.
