**Note to self, NEVER send the mister to the grocery store for me with more than a list of 2 items.***
Last night I sent the mister to the store for me (since I needed to stay home w/ LL due to her being sick/clingy) and I wanted to get some of the Publix BOGO (buy one get one free) deals as well as some essentials before the sale ad ended today.
So I start my list, being VERY specific on brand, quantity, type, if it is a BOGO, if I am sending a coupon, etc....
I have also explained to the mister a million times that Publix allows you to get 1 of the BOGOs and just pay 1/2 the price instead of actually getting 2 for the BOGO deal.
Upon his return, I learned that I will never send such an extensive list with him again! True grocery shopping is not in his cards.
He returned home with multiples of EVERYTHING (stuff we didn't need, stuff that I only wanted 1 of, etc--4 spaghetti sauces instead of one).
He also returned with the wrong types of a few items (Wheat Ritz instead of Regular, plain rice instead of Wild Rice, Add everything pancake mix instead of just add water pancake mix).
He also just seemed to pick up whatever he felt like--- disregarding the items that were actually on sale (Publix brand fruit cups instead of the BOGOs, etc)
And then there were the randoms like 2 large containers of syrup-gross-which we really don't even eat!
And of course there were items forgotten!
I guess that I can't be too upset with him--at least he went for me! However, I am still looking at the scenario wondering if it really happened and if he did what he did on purpose so that I would never ask him to make such an extensive trip for me again.....
Guess I will be the one picking back up on the shopping from now on!
