It kills me how long he stays in the cereal aisle though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705502 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 13:43:34 +0000 Ash 705502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We go together. I used to hate taking him with but now I love it... Plus, he can't complain about what I come home with if he goes with! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705475 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 13:34:42 +0000 heartonastring 705475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I cook on weeknights and DH cooks on weekends, so I shop for the meals I cook and he shops for the meals he cooks. Although often on weekends we shop together at a couple local farmers markets...it's our form of entertainment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705454 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 13:30:44 +0000 marionberry 705454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do it together every Sunday. It's kind of like bonding time and we can discuss what to make for the week and such. I like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705396 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 13:16:09 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 705396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Either of us alone, or sometimes we go together. I don't usually like going together because DH likes to browse a lot and read so many labels. It's pretty funny but can end up taking a while. It also can be bad if I send him there "quickly" on his way home from work. He takes a long time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705380 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 13:11:43 +0000 swurlygurl 705380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm jealous of everyone that can do it together! It would be an obvious way to spend more time together. I guess I should think of it as my 'me time' (even though it's lame 'me time'!), and be happy. Haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705368 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 13:09:06 +0000 Ginger333 705368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH goes - he likes to spend money and groceries are a guilt free way to do it, and he really likes price matching, which apparently I don't do right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705348 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 13:02:57 +0000 lovehoneybee 705348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tysonja: @kiddosc: I feel like it sounds sort of lame when I talk about our grocery shopping dates, but that's pretty much what they are, lol. We enjoy it! We don't see him much during the week, especially as it creeps closer to summer, and grocery shopping is something that needs to be done so it's a great way to spend time together and take care of something that needs to be done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705331 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:59:01 +0000 heffalump 705331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me. I'm a sahm so I go when dh is working. If we need just one or two things dh will run out to get it though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705301 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:49:10 +0000 mamabolt 705301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I almost always do it alone. DH used to come with me but I hate shopping with him because he abandons his cart in the middle of the aisles and is so disorganized we end up going down the same aisle multiple times. I don't really like shopping on my own either but it must be done! Now that LO is old enough to sit in the cart it's a little more fun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705258 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:25:01 +0000 mrs. bird 705258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i almost always do it, but he carries them in from the car =) he's good about going for a few things if i send him a list though and never complains about it. once in a while he will come with me, but that's usually if i've been pouting about him not spending enough time with me. he's more likely to join me for target trips. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705244 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:19:48 +0000 Smurfette 705244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do it 99% of the time. He went Monday night cause I didn't feel like getting dressed to go in public. I hate going with him cause he just walks off and we end up with way more then we need. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705225 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:15:07 +0000 anbanan15 705225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both do but separate. We used to go together before LO was born and before I was on TED. DH didn't want to shop with me or for me then because of all the label reading. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705213 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:12:11 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 705213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha, I do. He takes too long if I take him with me and he wants to look at EVERYTHING. I am a "get in, get out" kind of shopper. I do not want to lollygag in the grocery store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705185 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 12:04:54 +0000 Pepper 705185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I go together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705174 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:59:35 +0000 Bao 705174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We go together :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705161 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:52:36 +0000 .twist. 705161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband gets way more groceries than I do because he's home more often. </p> <p>However, we do BOTH get groceries. Whoever is more available to get them does it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705157 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:51:03 +0000 blackbird 705157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both go, although he or I will do small trips if necessary. But generally speaking we both do it. It goes quicker and he now knows where everything is at the store :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705152 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:49:09 +0000 yin 705152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We go grocery shopping together as a family on Sunday mornings. DH helps me meal plan, and I mainly put the items in the cart. Without me there, we would have a lot of junk food in the house with no meals during the week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705149 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:48:23 +0000 FarmWifeGina 705149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually just me and the kids. I miss the days when we used to go together, but he generally can't take the day off so we can go grocery shopping, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705136 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:44:08 +0000 Alivoo01 705136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We normally go together. If one of us is already at the market, we'll text the other to see if there are additional items needed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705099 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:33:20 +0000 LuLu Mom 705099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to go alone, but now we go together because he couldn't figure out why I was spending so much at the store. First time he came--almost double! Now we go together with a list and keep each other in check! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705090 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:31:51 +0000 LittleFox 705090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlek: Same here </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705073 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:27:07 +0000 Boheme 705073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're a mixed bag. DH usually goes alone or we go together. Rarely do I go by myself because I hate it, but sometimes it works out better because I plan all our meals and sometimes he doesn't know what things are :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705060 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:24:48 +0000 kiddosc 705060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: Your grocery shopping routine is just too cute! </p> <p>I usually go on a weeknight after E has gone to bed. It pretty much guarantees that I will get to bed much later than I prefer... need a better plan. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705054 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:23:06 +0000 lindseykaye 705054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do the cooking and meal planning, so I do the grocery shopping. DH has a strong hatred of any kind of shopping though so it works out. He will go pick up a handful of things if we need them in a pinch but will usually also pick up extra stuff (and then spend extra money) so I avoid this if possible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705049 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:22:04 +0000 tysonja 705049@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: that sounds like my kinda fun :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705046 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:20:39 +0000 tysonja 705046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha.. DH loves grocery shopping too, but we always end up over our budget and with extra chocolate and baked goods when he comes :)</p> <p>99% of the time i go during the week with LO. i love grocery shopping! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705042 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:20:14 +0000 lovehoneybee 705042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We go together on the weekend. We have lunch, hit up Costco then Giant or Wegmans. I do the gathering and he walks around the store wearing E. He randomly finds me and tosses something in the cart and so I can kiss them both. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-the-grocery-shopping-1#post-705031 Wed, 10 Apr 2013 11:16:45 +0000 littlek 705031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH loves grocery shopping. It's his happy time. </p>
