When it comes to groceries/or eating out, we usually finish whatever we buy that day and go again the next day. We're not a fan of leftovers except the regular essentials like milk, organic juice, vegetables, fruits, etc.
Anyhow, my mission was to go Safeway/Vons for just lettuce & ham to eat for lunch/dinner because I didn't want to drive to Whole Foods... & I came out with a few extras but I didn't get too carried away especially for shopping by myself so I'm quite proud!
I bought:
- Baby Romaine
- Chicken Ham - Thinly Sliced
- Naked Mighty Mango, one of my favorite drinks!
- 2 Colby Jack String Cheese
- Lastly, Chobani Almond Coco Loco Greek Yogurt (This is new to me, never tried it & looking forward to later tomorrow)
Then afterwards, I went to go pick up my boyfriends food at a restaurant, he had salmon & rosemary potatoes.
Do you carried away when going to the market? Do you find yourself buying much more than you should?

Men are all over you dear!! 
Yes, when I go grocery shopping with my boyfriend we would always buy extra.
I try not to anymore because we don't like Left overs and it'll go to my parents if I don't like it.

My mom and grandma got carried away this month and used all their money. They are regretting it for sure. I think it is best to go at least once or twice a week.
You got some very healthy stuff. Greek yogurt is amazing, I never tried that kind though. I love black cherry and lemon haha!

I never tried black cherry or lemon greek yogurt, sounds good though!
It is best to go a few times rather than buying too much in my opinion.

@infatuatedbby It is much better to go a few times. I don't know what they were thinking. And yes they are very good! Just plain Green yogurt isn't that great, it makes a good substitute for sour cream though haha!

@DesirousDreamer yes buy what you need because sometimes overbuying food may go to a waste

That is good too! I usually go over always, but with my boyfriend- it's worse. We want to try everything but end up not always eating everything. I have to give it to my parents to help us.

@infatuatedbby that' s okay if you have enough budget. At least your parents got their share from your groceries too.

There's a saying that you should never go shopping when you're hungry! Unfortunately I often do and I end up spending too much.
