Being a guy who really enjoys cooking so much that I enter contests(and sometimes win), it's a fair be that I enjoy shopping for foodstuffs and spirits... My favorite shopping places are the open air markets and dollar stores, where there are bargains galore, and some surprising finds, like gourmet coffees and teas... Also, the other shoppers can become a source of amusement and writing inspiration, too! :) http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1101136.aspx I never have any problem with grocery shopping, my Ladies love that fact that I can turn a shopping trip into a fantastic meal, and they show their appreciation of that skill in the most excellent ways! :)

well, you are really an exceptional guy! you're like, a one in a million guy because most guys i know really dislike going to the grocery store. they find it a bit boring and monotonous. no wonder the girls are giving you extra special rewards whenever you cook for them. :P lolz. :)

You're right. Most people love to go for grocery shopping. And I'm proud to be one of them. I usually do this because I have a mini store in our house. I sell products which are basically use in our daily lives. I'm excited for the new products I would introduce to my neighbors. But I still have to consider the price and it's quality before offering them out. This is why I enjoy shopping groceries, I love to introduce new products, see them one by one and compare it to other.

*laughs* I don't really enjoy my grocery shopping that much because I don't eat that much, so I will do it unless I really have to. I find that I would enjoy my grocery shopping when I go to the store empty stomach because then I would be more patient thinking of what to get and read labels and imagine different dishes. But I would end up usually buying more stuff which I might not need. So I usually go to the store, having a list on my mind and just grab the stuff and leave. That would save me money *laughs*.

oh, really? why dont you eat that much? lolz. :) maybe ou should try to have or make a list of the things that you need so that you will not end up buying stuffs which are really unnecessary. i was like that a few months ago and i kicked out that habit by bringing a list with me and strictly following that list. lolz. :)

I do enjoy grocery shopping ,I do my grocery shopping once a week,usualy week end.I don't have a habbit to make a list for groceries.I always buy the same old stuff every week so it's automaticaly listed in my mind already. I like to compare price too and sometimes they have a promotion for new products where you can try their new products,i love it. I don't enjoy my shopping when i'm in the hurry where i can't spend more times to browse arround .All i can do is just grab and go...

Oh I really do hate it. For one reason I will always seem to come home with nothing but junck food and not one thing to cook a meal with. The funny thing is I am not a very big junck food person. My husband finally put his foot down and said that I am no longer allowed to go grocery shopping anymore by my self. I guess the reason I would be so bad at it is because I do not cook!!!

I love grocery shopping!! It is my favorite thing getting all kinds of yummy foods. I love it when my kids are calm and let me take my time so I don't have to rush around the store.

I love grocery shopping especially when I get to stick to my list and my budget. It's also great if I get to buy great finds at low prices or find out that the things on my list have lowered their price which gives me more savings. I also love it when my daughter is with me. She enjoys all the colorful stuff she doesn't normally see and likes smiling at other people who pass by with their carts or with their own little kiddies.

I have to say that I hate doing grocery shopping. This is something I never really had to do for quite some time as my wife did it. However, times have changed and I now have to do this...and I'm not liking it. cheers,
