Groceries


An outing to the local grocery store. This everyday moment is part of my "routine". I've learned to plan ahead, and make grocery shopping enjoyable for all. So far, I've come up with a few tips for myself:
1. Always go after breakfast. (my boys do awesome in the morning after a good meal.)
2. take a list
3. match coupons needed to list before loading the car.
4. Give Danny the "pep talk" (nothing will be purchased unless it is on the list or on sale)
5. Get to know the staff, they can do wonders for you. (search for the double cart, wheel the double cart around the checkstand, help load the kids, and reach high merchandise on the shelf)
