Re: Grocery shopping

Won't answer all the questions but generally I enjoy people watching. People at the grocery store are more interesting that you would think. I generally like to grocery shop because I like food and I get excited about what I'm going to eat....yeah. I don't go when I'm hungry for that reason.

Re: Grocery shopping

Who likes it? Hates it?
Just another thing I gotta do. I don't hate it...I try to switch up what I buy so I don't dread the trip.

How often do you go?
Two or three times a month. I usually underestimate the amount of stuff to buy.

Night owl? Morning? Midday? Evening?
Morning. Less people are usually out which means the lines are much shorter or non-existant.

What's your budget?
I don't have one, but I certainly don't spend over $40 a trip.

What sort of stuff do you usually buy?
Salad, cereal, lunchables, juice, bread, lunch meat, and the occasional cola. I'm the only "healthy" one in the family. I wish my parents would change their eating habits but it's their decision, not mine.

What do you do to keep yourself humored?
My trips are usually pretty quick. I just think of what I need and do it. Sometimes a song gets stuck in my head and it plays on repeat the whole time shopping.

Re: Grocery shopping

Haha, what an interesting thread idea. Okay, here goes...

I actually kinda enjoy it, gives me a reason to leave my dorm other then classes/going to clubs

Hardly at all

Evening/night time is usually the only time during the day that I can do it.

Pretty low budget, haha. I don't have a job and am living off of financial aid for college.

I usually only go when I need stuff like shampoo or deoderant etc. I have a meal plan at the college's cafeteria so I hardly ever buy food from a store, unless they are having a really good sale on a particular snack, and even then its rare for me to buy any.

Although I have a driver's license, I don't own a vehicle, so I usually go with a friend.

Attention shoppers,

Imagine this. You're in a grocery store, You're minding your own business, and you walk down an alsie with someone in front of you. Suddenly...THEY STOP! Like they just bumped in to be your personal speed bump. You know what you want and it's just beyond them. You try to say "excuse me" and they turn and stare at you like you're the fucking rule one. And what happens in the next alsie? THE EXACT SAME FUCKING THING HAPPENS IN THE NEXT AISLE! I'm glad you have all the time in the world to stare at taco shells or vagasil or aluminum foil or whatever but I'm on break. You know what the worst part about this is? THEY NEVER GRAB WHAT THEY'RE STARING AT! I wish a ninja would just pop out and snap their neck because they are not aware of their surroundings. I'd stop and look at that...of course blocking everyone behind me of course.

Jokes aside, Let me answer your questions:

Who likes it? Hates it?
I don't really enjoy going to the store much. I usually let my girlfriend do the shopping but there would be times when i feel like driving to the store lol.

How often do you go?
Once or twice a week. I have a lot of people in the house. D:

Night owl? Morning? Midday? Evening?
95% of the time, it's in the morning because it's more convenient for me. Other times are random depending on the situation.

What's your budget?
Honestly, I don't have one. It just depends how much money I have with me. I normally spend about 20-30 bucks but sometimes I'll end up spending close to 100 bucks on food.

What sort of stuff do you usually buy?
Mostly stuff i need for breakfast like cereal, organic milk, sausage, brown egg, 100% wheat bread, waffles, pancake batter (so i can make homemade pancakes :3), syrup, vegetable oil, fruits (organic apples, organic oranges, organic bananas and sometimes grapes), vegetables (roma tomatoes, sweet corn, potatoes, onions, green/red bell peppers, carrots <-- good for your eyes etc)

What do you do to keep yourself humored?
I bring my ipod and listen to subjectivemanias music.

Re: Grocery shopping

Takes me about ten minutes.

Grab shit off the shelf that looks good, pay, walk out.

Re: Grocery shopping

One of my favorite things to do.

Re: Grocery shopping

I just give my Mom a list and she gets my stuff for me.
They spend about an hour shopping and about 100$ per week :3.
