Grocery Shopping - Fun or Not?
There are times when I love going grocery shopping and then there are times it’s not really fun! I probably should classify that as a drag, boring or potential time waster. But it’s a necessary thing to do. We all need groceries, toiletries, food, etc. unless you are extremely wealthy and can afford someone to do the shopping for you. I for one am not that wealthy. What I’m trying to say is that at times I love to shop.
Part of the reason I like to shop is that most grocery stores keep the same general layout. Some change little things but for the most part they stay the same, which makes it easier to memorize where everything is. Our grocery store is this way. The only thing that has changed in the last 2 years is that they removed the photo area. (Guess it wasn’t making money) For instance our grocery store. You walk in the right side (the best side) and you have Soaps and makeup, medicines, acne creams, vitamins, toilet paper, tooth brushes, then along the back and far side you have milk, eggs, meats and cheeses then you get to the veggies. Then all of the other boxed goods are all on the inside aisles. (I’m sure you can figure out whats left with me itemizing it :) ) This makes it fun as I know where almost “everything” is.
Do you like to go grocery shopping?

Nope I don’t like to grocery shop, it’s a huge ordeal once a month tredging through the store only to have to unload the groceries onto the conveyor belt then have to be shocked at the price tag and then take them out to the car and load them up only to unload them at home and then have to put all the food away……..and then there is the task of having to cook all the food.
Nope, don’t like to grocery shop!

I do not like to go grocery shopping. I dislike seeing the money it takes nowadays to feed a family of 5 go out the window. But I do understand your store layout thing. After being laid up for 6 weeks I was finally able to go back to shopping and my store completely changed everything I was so lost lol

I hate grocery shopping, but luckily, my husband loves it, so I don’t have to worry.

I don’t normally post links like this - I hope you don’t mind, it’s how I feel about one aspect of shopping and it seems relevant
