I don't mind it too bad, if I have the time to take my time and not have to rush.  It's always a challenge to see if I can get the shopping done without getting rammed by another person's grocery cart. lol!  I'm a creature of habit when it comes to buying groceries and other supplies.  I mostly know where on any given isle the products I need are located.  I wish I was more adventureous to try new things but I seldom do.

I enjoy doing grocery shopping the only thing I hate about it is I need to get out in the cold or in the hot.

It's my least enjoyable task. I don't like going through the store aisle after aisle looking for stuff. It's annoying especially when I shop at a Super Wal-Mart and I forget something and I have to go clear across the store to get it. ::)

I grocery shop out of necessity, but it doesn't completely bother me too much either as I've been doing this so long. I do get excited when I found a very good deal, but this sensation is pretty much something I can get with any shopping focus.

Is there anybody out there who enjoys this if you do? Why? I can't stand it then after you done you have t put it away.

When I could afford to go grocery shopping and get what I wanted yes I enjoyed it.  It is fun to get stuff to eat and putting it up is not that big of a deal.  It means you have food in your cabinets and in your fridge so you have something to eat.  There are a lot of people, people you would not suspect, that when they open their fridge or cabinets there is nothing there.  So, yes, if I could afford to go grocery shopping I would enjoy it.

I love grocery shopping, because I am the person cooking the meals. I like to plan my meals in advance and get the required stuff.

I enjoy going Grocery Shopping, the morning is better because the supermarket is not crowded.

I actually enjoy planning the meals for the upcoming week and then seeing how inexpensively I can purchase the ingredients which makes the grocery shopping so much more interesting. I set a goal of two hundred dollars per week for a family of four-generally one hundred dollars at a Kroger/Vonn's store and then another hundred at Costco or Sam's club. I don't get out very often which may explain my getting excited about something as mundane as grocery shopping and preparing meals.  I just finished fifty hours in a cubicle, and twenty six hours of work at home and am preparing for another thirty two hours of work this weekend...guess you can see why grocery shopping is a nice escape for me!

I'm with you. Grocery shopping has always been a fun experience for me, since I was a little girl.

I wouldn't say I enjoy it, but it certainly doesn't bother me.  It's just one of those things that needs to be done.

I love grocery shopping! I challenge myself now with it. Im not crazy with coupons, but with being a stay at home mom, and a new one at that, I use coupons and am always looking for the best deals and i get so excited when i end up being UNDER budget. lol and its really a chance for me to get creative. I do all my cooking from scratch, so my creative side can come out when I see good items on sale.

I'm okay with grocery shopping if I can hurry and get in and get out.  I also like the self serve check stands where I don't have to make small talk with a clerk who's pretending to be my friend.  Sometimes, grocery store employees go over board trying to be friendly when I just want to focus on the transaction.

 :heart:

 

Have a great day!

I like grocery shopping because i like using coupons and seeing how much i have saved. You are right though, i do not like
putting the groceries up because I have limited space and I am tired when I get home.

I rather do my own shopping than have someone else do it though.I am picky,lol.

It's not that I enjoy grocery shopping, it's a necessity if I don't want to starve.  The one problem I have it's picking up more than I had intended to buy.

You do have to watch more carefully and read labels for ingredients before you buy things.
I used to like making the list.
Before that, I would write down the menu plan for the week.
