Our grocery shopping trip is about to come to a close. All we have left is the basic diery, bread, and maybe some juice. It’s fairly simple!
I think cheacking for cracked eggs is a basic, but I’ve seen so may people simply grab a carton and run. Try to stop for a second and open the carton to examine that all your eggs are still intact…no one wants to pay for eggs they can’t use. My eggs even come in a clear carton that makes things super easy!
Next check expiration dates. This is super important in these last few sections. I am a bit OCD about this and like to hunt for the product with the latest expiration date.This is so important on any dairy especially, such as sour creme, eggs, milk, and cheese.
I LOVE fruit juices. Our store has some fresh sqeezed ones that are amazing. I like to try wierd flavors such as carrot and citrus Juice …they are surprisingly great! I encourage everyone to try a new juice in a weird flavor, YUM!!
For bread cheack for mold! I buy from the stores bakery, I’m an artisian bread junkie. If you are to I suggest looking at the “When Baked” date as well. If you buy the bagged loaf bread you just do what my dad does, find the softest!
This section is self explanitory for the most part. SMILE, you are on your way to the check out!
At the check out remember to put fragile stuff such as eggs and bread last and group like items together. I like to put all heavy jugs up front followed by all cans, etc…
But, if your store is like mine this works opposite! We simply leave the basket at the front of the checkout and they sometimes have a nice person help bag. BUT, I always tell them we are ok and to go help someone else out since they only have a few bagers for a bunch of checkouts. I enjoy bagging my own purchases.
Usually my husband pays and deals with all that stuff while I happily chat with the cashier while I bag up my food finds the exact weird way I like! Be really careful not to crush delicate things. If you have cloth bags even better! Then with a “have an awesome day” to the cashier we are off!
I hope you enjoyed Mays Wednesday Segments!
Coming Soon:
