We don't go on any specific day, and some weeks we don't even go at all. I would like a more set day though. Do you shop on the same day each week?

I was going on Saturday..... That didn't have this or last week though b/c of family stuff.
I have a "weekly chores" chart that I've been trying to follow that has shopping day on Thursday, the day after the kitchen deep clean.
I think I may go today just to get a few things and then go back again on Thursday..... I REALLY need to get some more order in my life! lol

I must admit I'm TERRIBLE about cleaning the bathrooms (M) & bedrooms (T) b/c once I'm downstairs I just don't really make it back up except to put P down for naps BUT I'm gonna get some gloves today at the store & hope that helps me be more on top of the bathrooms! lol

@runsyellowlites: that's a great chart, thanks for posting!
I have no chore organization what so ever. I probably go to the grocery store four times a week because I've forgotten to get something. That gets expensive.

@oliviaoblivia: Oh yeah it does! We used to be like that too, go in for one thing and come out with 10 things. Making a list and going over it 5 times has helped lol

@Bao: It works really well when I follow it. lol!
@oliviaoblivia: I was notorious for multiple grocery store trips but since we're trying to be more on top of our finances I know I gotta quit that.... I spend WAY more money making multiple trips. =/

I try to go on Mondays or Tuesdays, but I usually end up making one quick trip at the end of the week depending on our weekend social plans.

We do our weekly shopping either Saturday or Sunday - but we usually make three or four trips in the week too!!! We're terrible for "not fancying" the dinner we've planned!!

I go Sunday mornings before 10 a.m. Any later and the store is too packed and makes me crazy!

We usually go Monday or Tuesday after work. In an ideal world we'd like to go Sunday afternoon but we're usually too busy (or lazy!!!) to go on the weekend.

I usually go mid-week. I try to only go once a week, but usually have to run and get a couple loose things.

We go every Sunday. Our grocery ads come out on Wednesday. If there is a one say sale I'll snatch what we want from it . the rest of the ads come out on Sunday, I make a list and price match most items for one store. This week I made a menu to follow & shop from. Hopefully I can stick to it. Some of my friends who live out of town plan a month in advance & stop for fresh items every other week. I envy them.

I try to go every Monday. That way I can pick up fresh turkey and bread for DH to bring for lunches.... he's very picky about his food being fresh!

We go on Sundays. We're really trying to only go once a week in order to control our out of control grocery spending!!!
