When you go shopping for groceries do you bring a list?

[Dynamite2013]

I always bring a list because if I don't I forget something I need. not only that but I want to make sure I have the money to pay for what I purchase. 

[swkstudent]

Yes always.

[makeblessed]

Sometimes I do, it does help because it tends to keep me from overspending.

[yaayme]

Yes, sometimes.

[nannycoe1]

always a list and coupons.

[monnee]

Yes, I bring a list so I don't have to make another trip out to the store and it saves time and $$$$$.

No list ... just a mental list.

I used to all the time, but I've gotten out of that good habit. Thanks for reminder.

I always have a list, but usually end up buying things that are not on my list.  At least with the list, I don't forget to buy something that I am out of.

I always have to take a list, otherwise I forget and it is usually something I especially needed.

I write a list out before I go to the store because it makes my shopping trip much easier. It also helps me stick to the list so I don't spend too much. Every now and then I'll see something in the store that I forgot to put on the list that I need, but for the most part I stick to my shopping list.

[dreamyxo]

Yes.

[Penwoir]

Yeah, I have to. In fact not only do I take a shopping list with me but, as I've been so many times and know the layout of the store really well,  I actually detail my shopping list in the same format that the shop is laid out in. This saves me going back and forth throughout the store for things I may have forgotten. So I'll always have fresh produce at the top of my list and pharmacy products at the bottom. Great eh!

yes I do if not id forget what I was there for!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mrisha]

I make a list that I definitely do need and get what I really needed.  Of course I always see something else that I need or just want.
