When you go grocery shopping, do you have a list on you?


If you have a list, do you still stray away from it?


Do you usually go on an empty stomach?


Fess up, do you buy junk items "for the kids, or just for dh" and deep down there you know you're going to eat most of it?


Do you actually enjoy grocery shopping or is it a shore?

When you go grocery shopping, do you have a list on you?
No, Never.

Do you usually go on an empty stomach?

usually, yes.

Fess up, do you buy junk items "for the kids, or just for dh" and deep down there you know you're going to eat most of it?
First- I don't know what a DH is, lol! Actually, I mainly buy "meals" I don't usually have the money to spend on junk food, which is good. Usually, my boyfriend and I will each pick one thing that does not constitute as a meal (a bag of chips, special cereal, etc)

Do you actually enjoy grocery shopping or is it a shore?

Grocery shopping is my worst chore ever!!!!!

I do better when I have a list, but sometimes I do not have a list.

If you have a list, do you still stray away from it?

No not much unless there is a really good sale.

Do you usually go on an empty stomach?

No, impulse shopping is highest when you are hungry!

I only buy good snacks! Really my family is joining me, so we eat fat free jello/pudding, 100 calorie cookies/crackers, fruit snacks, fruits and veggies. I am lucky my kids love salad and fruits. I did buy a package of Spring Oreos and I had 2. Once a week I will buy soda but I do not drink any.

I enjoy shopping I do not like to put it away!

If you have a list, do you still stray away from it? YES, especially when I see a good sale on meats, frozen veggies etc..

Do you usually go on an empty stomach? I try not to..

Fess up, do you buy junk items "for the kids, or just for dh" and deep down there you know you're going to eat most of it? When I go alone I don’t buy any candy.. I do get a bag of the low fat chips for me (I love chips n salsa)

Do you actually enjoy grocery shopping or is it a chore? I enjoy it especially if I go alone (w/o DH or the Kids). I usually go once a week.

Whats even worse is going to walmart.. I go in for diapers and end up spending $40-70 every darn time.. LOL

If you have a list, do you still stray away from it? Sometimes, especially if there is a sale on something I consider a pantry staple. But I usually check the sales fliers before I go so it's unusual to 'stray'.

Do you usually go on an empty stomach? Try not to!

Fess up, do you buy junk items "for the kids, or just for dh" and deep down there you know you're going to eat most of it? Nope.

Do you actually enjoy grocery shopping or is it a shore? I don't mind it when I do it ... but honestly ... I don't do it. My DH is a stay at home dad and the one thing he loves most is to grocery shop ... he wanders every isle ... if it makes him happy ... who am I to object!

I stray if I'm stocking up on a sale item

Not usually

Oh, I'm very upfront to DH and DD that the gummy bears are MINE :)

I enjoy it if I'm alone, it's a chore if DH goes with me...he's a people watcher.

When you go grocery shopping, do you have a list on you? Yes

If you have a list, do you still stray away from it? Yes, and sometimes I forget to buy things I've written on the list...

Do you usually go on an empty stomach? No, I try to eat first

Fess up, do you buy junk items "for the kids, or just for dh" and deep down there you know you're going to eat most of it? No husband, no kids-if I buy it, I know I'm the one who'll eat it.

Do you actually enjoy grocery shopping or is it a shore?-I am easily confused in the store and end up needing help to find things...so it is always an adventure - I go once a month or even less frequently and buy a huge amount when I go...then have to pick up fresh vegetables at the street market! So I guess not a chore.
