When it comes to shopping in a hurry, Geraldton’s Nic Beaver has got all the bases covered.

Ms Beaver flew around Queens Supa IGA yesterday, filling her trolley with almost $800 worth of goods in just two minutes.

With no other shoppers in the store, Ms Beaver raced up and down the aisles collecting almost anything she could get her hands on, including noodles, oil, nuts, cereal and chocolate.

The shopping frenzy was prize in a raffle to raise funds for the upcoming Weekend to End Women’s Cancer Walk.

A group of Geraldton women, led by team captain Tricia Nankiville, will walk 60km on April 2 and 3 to raise money for the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research.

With each team member required to raise a minimum of $2000, Queens Supa IGA offered its support with a family fun day fundraiser, with the carpark filled with stalls and activities including pony rides and a jumping castle.
