GO KIDLESS

Shopping with your kids can add stress to your shopping trips. When I had my kiddos in tow, I felt like I was less focused on my savings and more focused on getting through my list as fast as I can. I was constantly telling my kiddos, "we can't get that today, it's not on sale" or "just a few more minutes." I was about ready to pull my hair out by the time my shopping was done. I would be safe in saying that I have good well behaved kids, but there is something about the grocery store that brings out the worst in them.

Over the past few months, I have adopted a new motto, "Go Kidless!" I go grocery shopping when my hubby is home and work going around his schedule. This has been the best thing ever and as an added bonus I get some alone time. I know "alone time" at the grocery store doesn't sound as appealing as getting a pedicure or browsing around Target aimlessly, but sometimes you have to take what you get.

So if your kids are making it hard for you to give your full attention to your shopping list, LEAVE THEM HOME WITH DAD!!! Oh and if you can't do that - check out THIS POST.
