when you go to the grocery, do you already have a list to buy?

I hate any kind of shopping. I want in and out, so I'm a 'list' person. Grab what's on the list, no dilly-dallying, and out the door. When I make a list, I also attach any relevant coupons. So, again, no finagling with coupons while in the store, I already have them handy.

Hi katrinapaz! I usually make a list of the things I needed to buy than picking up anything. I do this every time I buy groceries so I would not end up buying unnecessary things. I also do thing so I wont be out of budget and also saves a lot of time. Happy mylotting!

Well I just pick up things I want to buy, I don't bring list because I'm so lazy to prepare list, but when I go to grocery I already have in mind what I really want to buy and I admit sometimes I have tempted to buy things I really don't need, that's the disadvantage of not preparing first before buying. But of course I always make it a point that I buy the sale item. I also agree we must bring list of items to buy rather than just going to the grocery without preparation to save time and money.

Yes, I normally write down what I need to buy at home when I think of any, I put a sticky paper on the fridge, I just drop it dopwn when I think of it so I don't forget. But I tend to end up buying more than what I write on the list.

When I go grocerys shopping i usually do make a list to bring along with me. i mainly do this so i won't forget something that i really need while i am out shopping. i don't always keep to the list but i do my best.

Hi Katrina! Welcome to Mylot! Yes I do have a list with me. I checked out what stocks we don't have at home and save it on my cellphone. Then I go over the list and pick it up on the grocery store. Sometimes though, it cannot be helped that I picked something not on my list. But basically it is still food and I don't save on food. It is better to buy healthy foods than pay for medicines later. But I still keep track of my spending as I am working around a weekly grocery budget.

i NEVER shop without a list! if you shop without a list, you are tempted to buy all sorts of things that look good to you. if you have a list, (hopefully) you will stick to it.

Well I usually have a list so i wont blow all my money buying stupid things that i dont need.Also a list saves me time if i am in a rush and need to get in and get out.

We do both, We create a list and then we go up or down every isle and get our groceries. We always end up picking up more then what's on our list.

Usually when I go, I look for whats on sale, and buy only that. They have different sales every other day so you can get a lot of good stuff. Usually I save 3 times as what I spend. Oh, and never go to the store hungry.
