Going food shopping, who wants to help?
« on: June 14, 2008, 04:36:10 PM »
I'm headed to the "good" K-Roger this time. (rather than my "ghetto" Kroger) Anyone care to tell me what I feel like for dinner for the next ten days or so?
 :p

This much I do know:

- I'm getting dinner first (don't shop hungry!)

- I'm getting the usual suspects (eggs, milk, butter, bread, TP and paper towels)

- I will forget something (and I need a lot, lol)

So your mission CC is to tell me what I will forget (ooh, just remembered to get black pepper) so as to save me a trip. H5's for all helpful or funny thoughts.

How low are you on staples?  Tuna, pasta and rice always come in handy.

Good stuff.

just did the inventory and have more than i thought. Just happens to be a lot of stuff that does not go together, lol. Cereal no milk. Hot Dogs no buns, or chips. Pasta sause no pasta. Cornbread no milk eggs for the preperation. Some sides but no real meat like chix, burgers or steak.

I think I've got it figured out. Thanks folks for the help on a silly subject!

Sounds like my fridge/cupboard in college.  Except you need ramen noodles and Lucky beer.

Don't forget the Guinness....  :-)

I don't like grocery shopping. For some reason I am the world's most inefficient bagger on the earth and the peeps start stacking up.  :-)

That's why you should shop for one item at a time.

I'm not a fan of grocery shopping either.  I do mine on Monday or Tuesday after work, never on the weekend, too busy.

Well I'm back. Spent $108, not including alcohol, and I did forget something afterall. Toothpaste. Damn, down to my travel size toob now, lol.

H5's all around, thanks for the help.

Otherwise, I am stacked with foodage. Cubards are full. However, I hate to cook after I shop so I think I'll just order some Chinese food.

 :p :p :p

Ugh

I'm sure if I put a fraction more thought in there I might have fixed after all and maybe cupboards. I'm positive I would still use foodage and gotten tube wrong anyway.

I'll crack open some wine and see if that helps.

On edit:

fwiw, It may be spelled cupboards but it's pronounced "cubards".  :tongue:
