Do you organize your grocery list?
I write out my grocery list, then I re-write it in order of what aisle everything is in. I started doing this a while back because I would ALWAYS forget something! I'd get all the way down to the frozen foods section and then realize that I forgot to get something in the produce section and have to schlep all the way back over there!

Re: Do you organize your grocery list?
Yep - I go one step further and I have it in Excel. So all I have to do is refresh each time we go shopping and print out a new list!!

Re: Do you organize your grocery list?
No, I just keep a list. I try to organize it as I'm writing it, but otherwise, no. I do try to look online at the circular however to get the best sales!
My stepdad once made a list of what you could get in each ailse and then he copied the list. It really was very organized. Maybe I'll start again.

An Excel grocery list???? I'm totally impressed, Lauren......
Mine's usually written on the back of an old envelope or store receipt!!!

Re: Do you organize your grocery list?
I'm impressed guys. I don't usually make a list...then, I usually wind up buying a jar of mayonaise (of which there are already 2 in the refridgerator) and I always forget something.

Re: Do you organize your grocery list?
I use a word document and separate categories such as veggies/fruit, dry goods, toiltrees, meats, frozen foods, dairy aisle, etc ...

Re: Do you organize your grocery list?
I look up the circular online, print it out and circle the things I need. My coupons are in an organizer.
If I need something that is not on sale, I write it on a post it.

Re: Do you organize your grocery list?
I sort of group things by section -- dairy together, meats together, cleaning products, etc but it's not in the same order as the aisles.

Re: Do you organize your grocery list?
I make a list sometimes. I have a really good memory about what I need. Every now and then I forget something or buy an extra something that I think I need.
When DH goes shopping (hmm...when?) he always buys stuff we don't need.

Re: Do you organize your grocery list?
Years ago DH wrote out his list, went to the store and wrote down the aisle number next to each item he regularly purchases. Then he typed the list on the computer in the order of the aisles. He adds items as needed. We always have one posted on the fridge and just check the items off throughout the week when we use something up. I attach coupons to the list and he takes the coupons and list to the store on Sunday morning.
It does make life a lot easier.

Re: Do you organize your grocery list?
yes I do and I also put everything of the same catagory on the belt at the register like meat with meat so they are all in the same bag and keep each other cold, dry good with dry goods, etc.... A cashier thanked me once because it was already done for her

I do this too but the cashier seems to mess it up on me half the time when I don't bag myself.

I woudl have to do this if I went shopping. I found it so hard to find things in teh SUper Stop & SHop.
DH would alwyas yell at me for going back to an aisle because I forgot soemthing. He goes alone now & organizes it all in his head.
