Grocery shopping

I know some of this doesn't apply to those who live alone, but who does the food shopping in your home, does anyone help you out, I go because I do the cooking and am picky about what I cook. I always like to go and hand pick the produce. Speaking about produce, it pissed me off when they jam more than one item in a bin and post prices all over the place, then when you finally think you have the right deal you get up there and it's not, this one day it was deliberate, they ran out of one item so they put another there and left the other price. I'm sure they were hoping that you didn't notice it until later then say screw it. I guess I'm always looking for the deal, the best price or what have you. Coupons are ok although sometimes you have to read them carefully, damn fine print. I find that some of the store brands are just as good as the name brands, but on others there are a lot of variations. I can say for most certainty that store brand coffee s*cks.

Man, are we really stretching for thread topics lately or what?

You don't do much grocery shopping, do you Merlin?

It's nice when you still live under mommy's roof, the most strenuous thing there is to do is feed the goldfish.

I just pay for it. She picks it all out

My wife usually does the grocery shopping. I go with about 25% of the time - usually when we combine grocery shopping with "date night".

Sometime I have to get the groceries. My wife makes a list and I stick to it. That only happens when we have a baby or something.

I do all of the shopping for me. When I'm staying with my GF, we both go... sort of a concerted effort, so to speak. Hell, even when I was living with my parents, I did about half of the grocery shopping.
