What if you remember to get the milk but forget where you parked your car?


I never forget to buy dairy, meat, eggs, soft drinks, juice or baked goods. I'm a vegan who only eats natural whole foods.

We know that.

I have needed a GOOD LAUGH. What a treat....
I have already sent this out to numerous friends as far as Scotland....

I agree that Jeanne Roberts' video about sending Left Brain shopping is a hoot.
If you click on the Youtube link, there are lots of other funny videos to watch.

Thanks for mentioning the app.

I make a list as I come across things I need.

I always print my list for Publix from their site because it shows what aisle everything is on and I can walk through in the store in numerical order. Probably their app does that as well, but I'm smart-less. ;)

Thanks for the link, BK. I wasn't familiar with Jeanne but spent some time tonight chuckling to her other videos as well.

I use an app called grocery gadget. It syncs with my wife's phone so we have a single common list. I do all the food shopping. The only problem occurs if she decides to add something while I'm in the store and I'm past that aisle. But a very good app.

I just watched this one, CaliforniaGirl. That was funny.

You are welcome, Halibut. I am glad it made you smile.

I have a magnetic-backed tablet on the refrigerator. If I think of something while I'm in the bathroom, by the time I get to the kitchen I've forgotten it.

I do my big shopping at Wal-Mart. I make my list according to how the store is laid out starting with the West end and going East, getting milk & frozen items last.

Does she have new material each time she performs?

When I went to her Orlando show, she said she was recording a new DVD in Sept. with all-new stuff, so I'm assuming (and hoping) that the Dec. show will be the new stuff.

I have my email address set up as a contact in my phone. When there is something I need to remember, I text myself and have it in my email and in my phone in my sent file. I have another trick to remember things but I can't remember it right now.

My wife makes a list, then forgets to take it with her.

I just watched the "Style in NYC" video, it is so funny! Her delivery is impeccable. I'm now a huge fan.

So you are the man standing in the middle of the aisle with a basket full of "stuff" and on the phone! Now we know.

Now this is downright mean, but here goes ........... [/I]love to see the man on the phone with the (presumably) wife and he's saying "well they have it in a red box, but I cannot see a blue box, what about the green box? So if they don't have that what else shall I get"![/I]

For the record, my other half does not shop unless I write it down in triplicate, tell him exactly what aisle and which level shelf and how much it is. Now if it's not in the right aisle (but has been moved to the end of the aisle), we never get it! So the moral of this and the sake of my blood pressure - I do the shopping
