Grocery Shopping

Who enjoys grocery shopping? I do not, I really wish I had someone to go for me. The worst is having to put it all up when you are done.

I find it one of the necessary evils.  I like finding new products but hate paying at the checkout.
Have a wonderful day!

I like to shop,  I always make it a game for myself  to see how much I can get off with my coupons.  Otherwise it is pretty boring.  I do probably 95% of my grocery buying on secret shopper shops.  The more coupons I use there the better, because they reimburse me for what I spend.

How do you get grocery shops for mystery shops? It must be the area you live in, because I never get any good ones.

I'm pretty neutral when it comes to grocery shopping .. it is an evil necessity .. something that must be done.  Just wish the hubby would be a little more helpful with carry the stuff into the house.

I like to shop, when everything works well enough, but hate those trips when the shelves have empty spaces or my favorite products have been dropped.  It's be better if I had more store choices and my own car.  :-\

It is not one of my all time favorites, but it must be done. We have to go out of town so much to the doctors and when we do  we usually go to Walmart for groceries. My hubby goes with my dad and helps him while I get ours. I prefer hubby is not helping me he gets in the way. But I am so lucky. He carries in all of the groceries and helps put them up. then when he goes to work I redo them. Just getting them even near where I want them is a help.

No, I don't enjoy it but it has to be done. I try to get in and out quickly.

You have to eat, so it's no problem.  You can shop online for groceries if you don't want to go to the store and have it deliver to your place.

I don't like grocery shopping.  Walking up and down the aisles takes time and everything is so high.  Just when you think you know where things are, the store rearranges everything.  Then you have to come home and get everything out of the car and put it all up.

Instead of going once a month to get everything like I used to, I just go once a week & mainly just get sale/coupon items.  I "cook from the cupboard" mostly instead of using recipes.   I know exactly what is in the house, less food expires and it's alot less work....plus so much cheaper for me.
