Emma Gill from Manchester spent only £50 on her weekly shop by buying Asda own brand food only. The mother-of-two and Manchester Evening News journalist said the food was delicious bar two products she wouldn’t buy again.

Emma has shared which foods she bought on her weekly shop, with the total number of products coming up to only £50.

The products were enough for Emma to make breakfast, lunch, and dinner for her and her family every day.

There were also some foods left over for snacks and sweet treats.

The mum-of-two wanted to buy Asda Smart Price items for a full week in order to keep costs “down” and avoid as much “waste” as possible.

Emma confessed the items were “lower quality” than what the family is used to, but they were tasty all the same.

The journalist said: “With the exception of the weak teabags and the poor quality sausages, there’s nothing we wouldn’t eat again.”

Emma shared what her family ate every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Breakfast on weekdays were a choice of either toast, toast and jam, Wheat Bisks, or porridge.
