me

I just got back now and saw this thread. I DREAD it and it never seems to go away! I go once a week but it feels like much more than that. And of course, I get home and realize that I forgot something AGAIN!

Me. If I bring DH and DD along, we end up with all kinds of extra junk food and a much higher total at the cash register.

Ditto what grinninghost said!!

Also - who ever said that they did the shopping as a family - that's how we did it when I was growing up! Every Friday night the entire family went to the grocery store and then we got to go to GC Murphy's!!

Marla,
I'm embarrassed to say that I am at the grocery store about 4-5 times a week! I've already been there today!

We both shop together.

I go myself every Thursday morning after I take the kids to school.

ME - I feel I do better sticking to a list, stocking up on sale items and using coupons

Me. I absolutely LOVE grocery stores. So much so that when we visit another part of the world, I have to snoop and wander into a food store, a farm market, etc., etc., etc.... (I know, I know.....what can I tell you......)

I do most of it but DH doesn't mind picking up a few things now and then.

I do, because grocery shopping in the islands is an adventure. You never know what they're going to have. So I have to plan my weekly meals as I shop.

When DH and I are in the States, we both go. It's one of the highlights of our trips. It's like going to an amusement park for us. We'll each take a cart and then we're off like Supermarket Sweepers. I usually end up hyperventilating over the choices. I've been known to scream things like:
Holy smokes honey !!!! They have 3 different kinds of Triscuits!!!!

I also break down into tears in the produce section. You have no idea what it means to walk through a well stocked produce section. It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it.

DH used to do all of it. I think he got burnt out because we now both do it, either alone or together, depending on his schedule.

I stock up on paper products on sale at Eckerdts, buying 20 rolls of paper towel and TP at a time. I also buy 40 lb bags of pet food and kitty litter, and multiples of whatever is on sale. If I shop this way, I only need to pick up a few things every week. I'd like to say I use coupons but I've gotten lazy. It seems to work out the same $$ if I use them or don't.

DH likes to shop on Fridays & Saturdays for the free samples. He kills me! Little bits of food on tooth picks are not my idea of dinner, at least not at the grocery store.

Gene does it. Thank God!

We do it together. It is a Saturday morning ritual for us. Sure we end up with some extra stuff in the cart, but that's ok. I like the time we spend together and it is easy to make decisions for the coming week as well.

 

[FOJMO]

and I LOVE IT!!!!!

Me and I hate to grocery shop!

 

[MrsPiglet]

I do ours, sometimes with dd, normally on the weekend and he does the pick up bread and milk trips during the week.

I normally enjoy going but DD hates going with me. She uses every excuse in the book not to go grocery shopping with me.

 

[DVC-Don]

I do. When my wife does it, she comes home with a bunch of junk food. I go Friday mornings about 9 AM.
