Shopping list-with a twist
Generally speaking, I don’t mind grocery shopping. It can be kind of a mindless, timeless kind of thing. But sometimes it can be really crowded in the store, or I can be in a big hurry or honestly, not really in the mood.
The best way to zip throught the shopping is with a good list of what I need. We keep a pad on the fridge and jot down the items as we run out of them.
Then, on shopping day, I take that list and organize it on a new page. I always start with produce ’cause that’s where I enter the store. Then I go up and down the aisles in my head and write down the items in the order they would appear in the store.
I go through the store and cross off the items as I put them in the cart. It keeps me focused on what I need and helps me get in and out of the store in the most efficient way.
