Shop Til You Drop
I’m quite possibly preaching to the converted, but for those of you who are yet to discover the joys of doing your grocery shopping online, I urge you to give it a go.
I love little more than a full on grocery shop, particularly en famille, but as life’s got busier so too has our shopping bill. The temptation of time saving treats was quite frequently too much for the Husband and I to bear - not to mention the ability for one of us to remember the vital pound coin for our rather unwilling and independent trolley. Then of course, there is keeping the Munchkin amused throughout the proceedings which is a whole different story.
I’m a Sainsbury’s girl through and through. How thoroughly middle class. We choose our hour slot and I shop away on line over the course of the week, sending my finite order by 6 pm the night before it’s due. They even remember our regular items which helps save on time. They’re rarely late, however if they are, we have a whole £10 off our next week’s shop.
Of course every supermarket is in on the act, Tescos, Waitrose and Asda all offer their own services. One gem I must pass on, is to avoid the purchase of any fruit and veg, simply because you’ll more likely than not end up with the least appealing specimens, often a little passed their prime.
Now what are you waiting for ?
