Home / News / Viral & Trending These 6-year-old twins *almost* bought $800 worth of snacks on Instacart Jessica Aiwuyor/Twitter “When you have twins, you’re in for a wild ride." By Cassandra Stone March 1, 2023 Jessica Aiwuyor/Twitter Rectangle Remember when you’d get dragged to the grocery store with your mom, and you’d basically spend the entire time begging her to buy an endless array of snacks for your pleasure? Well, that still happens these days—except it’s actually much easier for kids to get what they want thanks to grocery delivery apps. One mom learned this the hard way after her 6-year-old twins almost ordered a whopping $800 of snacks on Instacart. “My six year old twins almost purchased close to $800 worth of snacks using my Instacart app,” mom Jessica Aiwuyor wrote in a tweet that has since gone viral, with over 5 million views and 74,000 likes. The screenshots of the order are the best part: four packages of Lunchables, several packages of Oreo ice cream sandwiches, a gallon of lemonade, 28 bags of chips and 35 cases of Capri Sun Fruit Punch, for starters.

Before gratuity, the subtotal of the twins’ Instacart order is $757.57. They almost completed the purchase but couldn’t figure out the last few steps. I serve a living God!— Jessica (J.A.M.)

JUST LOOK AT THOSE HAPPY, SELF-SATISFIED FACES. Y’all!!!!! @Instacart sent their “order.” 😭😭😭 pic.twitter.com/WwuyogNw0K— Jessica (J.A.M.) Aiwuyor 💫 (@JAMAiwuyor) February 21, 2023 Instacart sent two of almost everything in the girls’ initial order, but also some healthier snacks like carrots and bananas. Aiwuyor tells TODAY.com this isn’t the first time her little tricksters have tried to pull off a heist like this. “They have done this with my Target app before, loaded it up and it would be Sour Patch Kids and stuff,” she said. “They would tell me, ‘Mommy, we ordered some stuff from Target,’ and then seeing, ‘Oh gosh, they made a wish list in this cart.’ I’m glad they didn’t know how to complete the purchase.” Related: 4-year-old boy orders over $2,600 worth of SpongeBob popsicles on Amazon Aiwuyor, who also has a four-month-old son in addition to her twins, says having multiples is a very specific kind of experience in terms of parenting. “I think it’s funny. Twin parents, they can sympathize. I also have a 4-month-old son so it’s a lot going on,” Aiwuyor says. “Even without multiples, children are a handful,” she explains. “But when it’s twins and they start doing their own thing, having their own side conversations and making their own plans, it’s like nothing can stop ‘em,” she adds. “When you have twins, you’re in for a wild ride.
