How often do you buy groceries?
What types of things do you consider “essential”?
Do you make a list when you go shopping, or just have an idea of what you need?
Do you do one big trip all at once, or do you pick up just enough to make what you’re eating that night/the next day?
Trip to Costco every 1.5-2 months to stock up on meat and whatever else we can buy in bulk and freeze. This trip completely fills the freezer and requires reorganizing it and breaking down the bulk packages and vacuum sealing smaller portions for single meals for two people. We also do a similar trip to H-Mart for Korean things and a huge bag of rice.
Trip to the grocery store weekly to grab smaller things we might need. Sometimes it’s much larger than others. Big meal prep day on Sunday so we don’t have to do as much work during the week.
Lists are essential so I can free up that memory for something else. I also will think of things at the most random times and I’d never remember them without immediately putting them on the list. Also helps ensure that if either my wife or I go to the store we can pick up things the other has thought of.
