Other people's grocery lists!

Bigsweetie · 08-23-2007, 10:30 AM

Check out this website! It's other people's discarded grocery lists! It's sorta "voyeuristic" to see what other people put on their lists.

grocerylists.org | The Grocery List Collection

And let me know if any of you see YOUR lists here! LOL!

Wow - I never considered myself "healthy" until I looked at some of those lists!
Don't forget the VODKA!!!!

Cool, this is a more subtle way to indulge in my affinity for sneaking peeks in other people's carts while in line at the grocery store!! I'm a nutritional consultant + worked on an ambulance for three years, so all I can think is: "If they only knew what that stuff will do to their bodies in 20 years..."

That is really neat!

I hope mine aren't on there because sometimes I write things on there as a joke for my boyfriend, like "KY Jelly" and "severed heads".

That beats my needing tampons and listing them as harpoons.

Considering I buy way too many things to fit on a single post-it note, you won't be seeing my grocery list on there. I usually shop for 2 weeks or more at a time- my list is ALWAYS huge. I sure miss those single post-it note days, especially when I have to put all of the crap away.

Ha ha...some of those are great...my list is too long, typically to fit on that. I, too, remember when it was just a few things on a sticky note.

12 milks, 10 breads, size 4 diapers, pull-ups, boys nighttime pull-ups, girls night time pull-ups, ....When I am at Sam's, everyone always looks at how much milk I am buying, and they try to come up with some original comment....or how much bread I buy (I buy a lot at once and freeze) and ask what army or daycare I am feeding.

So, I typically hate to go through the aisle, especially with all the kids....especially buying a pregnancy test when I have all the kids with me....

The butcher at the counter made some comment about how I must not have a t.v. in my room. The check-out person asked if I know how that happens...boy, oh, boy....

I do like to look at other people's carts too, so I guess I am a hypocrite with getting annoyed at them looking at mine. I just am one of those lookers but not commenters.

Regina, buying groceries for two adults and six children must be a really big feat! And doing it sometimes with the kids?? That's such a conquest!!
