Whoops! I Forgot the ... at the Grocery Store! Have you ever left the grocery store and said, "Whoops, I forgotone recipe ingredient"? Or, "Whoops, I forgot to use my coupon"?Or even while in the store, "Whoops, I passed that aisle, andnow I have to go back"? Here's a simple technique to help. Use an aisle-by-aisle grocerylist. Include reminders on your list.
You could make an aisle-by-aisle template for your store, andthen write the items in the proper aisle. Another way is towrite down the items in groups, by category. This requires somethought and discipline ahead of time. Most people just jot downthe items in the order that they think of them, and they end upwith a randomly ordered list. Alternatively, you could use computer software. Then you cansimply select the items and let the computer figure out theaisles. Of course, you'd first have to enter the aisleinformation into the computer so that it knows what to work with. One shopper's experience
with aisle-by-aisle shopping follows: Before using the program my shopping took forever. I would havea list created by the "what do I need" method. Things werejotted down as I thought of them so my lists were a mess. Iwould need to go back and forth through the store checking offitems willy-nilly. This would take forever, making me stay inthe store for 2-3 hours each time. I would often forget itemsand have to return to the store hours later. Now I can shop aisle by aisle and rarely forget to pick items. Ican keep track of coupons and make sure that I get the discountsthat I am entitled to. I have tried different methods ofshopping but the Aisle-by-Aisle program has made my shoppingeasier. I can use my time more efficiently and I am able to havemore free time with my family due to quicker shopping.!!!!
