I'm guessing your daughter must be really young based on the fact that she calls you Mommy. When my DD's were young it wasn't an issue, it's only since they have become teenagers.
I tell my DD's to put it on the list, but they don't. Whenever I go to the store I ask everyone what they want and they either say "nothing" or "snacks". OK, if you leave it up to me you probably won't be happy. I found it works out best if they come with me. It costs more that way, but they won't be complaining. Like another poster said, they want something they can just grab and eat, they don't want to have to do any work at all.
actually, she just turned 12, and even though it catches her friends by surprise, and they've ragged her about it a little, she can't seem to get out of the habit, lol. she's pretty good about the snacks. she'll eat whatever i buy, and i try to make it goldfish, 100 calorie packs of snacks or popcorn, NSA applesauce and yogurt. her dad is a junk food junkie, so i keep his chips and cookies out of her reach.
