Grocery Shopping With The Kids
Grocery Shopping With The Kids
I only have three children -- not seven, but this is why I try to avoid shopping trips with all of them in tow, and why, when I have them all with me, I go to the expenisve grocery store where the staff is really nice and always insists on helping me out to the car. Chris is one brave, brave woman.
I'm in Nashville, too! I primarily shop at Harris Teeter--my three year old loves the free balloon and cookie and I love the candy-free checkout lane. We had to quit using the miniature shopping cart after he overturned it into a fruit display, though :) I keep a price book tracking my lowest prices for certain items, and I find that Harris-Teeter, despite its expensive image, has some of the best prices when things go on sale. (Double coupons up to 99 cents are only a bonus for me.)
Thanks for the tip about avoiding sales tax through Amazon. I will check out the selection!
