TP - because my mom always thought it seemed more discreet on the list than writing out what it actually is.
paint brushes
kool aid packets - especially wild cherry flavored.
granola bars
definitely NOT mustard. - I found 3 containers in the fridge...
potatoes
sugar free french vanilla creamer
Do you know what we're having for supper from this list? Yeah - me neither... Chances are it will be fast food on the way to get Maddy from Girls State.
Yeah - that should do it tho... I'm an impulse buyer, so I'm sure I'll be throwing in a few more things in that I hadn't thought of at this time. This is not a big grocery list day.... For those days, I just write down the things I want to make SURE I don't forget, then toss the usuals into the cart along with the list items.
Some things I'll draw a line from and say Sam's Club or other grocery store because do I REALLY need 10 lbs of creamer? Well, yeah I probably will eventually... But where would I store it?
Someday I really plan to do menu planning. But for now, I just try to keep up with the demands of the household and make sure all bases are covered.
For all you menu planners and coupon clippers out there... I salute you! I'm not organized enough to join your ranks, but someday!...
I'll put it on my list of things to do.

I'm not a meal planner because I'm the type person who has to be 'in the mood' for what I fix.
However, I LOVE couponing! For me, it's the excitement of the hunt for bargains and I do have a stash. BUT I am not like the ladies on that tv show because really, who needs 50 bottles of mustard? :o/
I am a list person........ the only way not to forget something. I have watched extreme couponing on TV but we do not get coupons over here looks like a fun way to save money though
We have a rigid amount of dollars for food so I have to plan it out in detail for two weeks! I miss the days of Chris and I just grabbing things and going on about our day.
I have tons of lists, but i must admit using my Iphone apps for my grocery lists is awesome! Always with me and easy to delete as I pick up the item. Also love having Siri to remind me of things I need to do.
Have a great week!
Jill
