Save hours off your camping trip with this 'genius' shopping tip!

There's nothing quite like packing up the ute, hitting the road, and setting up camp under the starry skies.

While camping could be a blissful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, it also comes with its own set of challenges—especially when it comes to mealtime.


After finding the perfect camping spot and the kids start exploring the great outdoors, grandparents suddenly face the prospect of leaving the campsite to stock up on pantry goods and cooking essentials.

However, an Aussie mum shared her 'genius' trick that could change how campers handle groceries on their adventures.

The savvy mum posted a video showcasing her clever camping tip.

With a beach trolley in tow, she strolled to the entrance of her caravan park to collect her Woolworths order, which was conveniently delivered to the site.

The mum guaranteed that it could maximise family time.


Comments poured in from impressed campers.

'Thanks for the idea! This is brilliant!' one enthusiastic camper exclaimed.

'Why have I never used this when we've been camping,' another shared.

The mum revealed that by using Woolworths' delivery service to her campsite, she saved over three hours—time that would have been spent travelling to and from the supermarket.

'This saved me so much time. Happy mum, happy life, I say,' she commented.


However, amidst the flood of positive reactions, a Woolworths employee offered a word of caution.

'Just a reminder to change your location back when you go back home!' the employee said.

The employee shared a previous experience about campers accidentally sending groceries to their holiday spot.

'I was an Online Manager in a tourist town, and people would always accidentally order from our shop once they got home, which was 12 hours away!'

So, before you next venture out into the wild, consider setting up a grocery delivery to your campsite.

It's a simple yet effective way to ensure food stocks without missing a moment of your well-deserved break.
