Yesterday I had to run a few errands, the last one being the grocery store, around lunch time, when I hadn't eaten since breakfast.
My list (roughly $15-20worth of things):
Bread
Milk
Salad
Cheese
What did I leave with??
$70.00 worth of stuff, mainly junk food!
Unnecessary Items include but are not limited to:
-mini powdered donuts
-string cheese
-2 bags of potato chips
-nilla wafers
-teddy grahams
I don't even know what got into me! I didn't audit my cart before the checkout, I just cruised right on up with a cart full of yummy but expensive crap! Never again will I go to the store on an empty stomach around lunch time, especially when I am trying to SAVE money. UGH! Stupid me.
Now I will be poor and fat! haha

oh no! lol I can definitly relate..never go to the grocery store hungry, I always write a list but end up buying some little treat thats not on the list.
Uh oh! I've done this before. But hey, at least you have some good treats now!
I've done that..oh goodness, what a mistake! :)
hahaha I do that ALOT. I make sure to eat a LUNA bar before grocery shopping AND bring a list! I'm so consumed by my list that I just want to get it over with and leave!
That is what happens if I take the hubby shopping with me. But hey, poor and fat isn't all bad.
I have so done this. No good at all.
Hahaha...this happens a lot to me. :( Pretty much all the time... :( haha.
been there. done that. its getting to the point where matt likes to go to the store by himself bc when i tag along the cart is always DOUBLE in price what matt gets! i have no idea why - but it happens!
I guess what "they" say is true.
what!? I didn't know you got nilla wafers, I'm gonna go eat some now!
String cheese is not junk food and would definitely qualify as a necessity...at least in my book!
I hate this! I tend to do this one A LOT. And my husband sure as heck doesn't help the situation. Lol.
I cannot go shopping when I’m hungry because I do the same exact thing! Nilla Wafers…yum!
