However, I am not so much in love with the fact that he is a perpetual deviator when it comes to the Costco shopping list. It NEVER fails.
It's that time of year; Summer, birthdays, vacations, holidays and all of that jazz, will be here before we know it. I have to tighten the purse strings a lot, to ensure everything is accounted for. So, I thought I made it very clear to my sweetie pie, that he needed to stick to the list. But you be the judge.
This was my email to him:
When he came home, I asked how he did.
Here's his receipt:
Funny, I don't remember seeing mayonnaise or pistachios on my emailed list. I will okay the hamburger buns, because I did amend the list in a new email after the fact. But I did not say anything about chips. And look at what WASN'T on that receipt...
Toilet paper.
Wow.
Speaking of shopping... I need to head out to Fry's to get the grocery shopping done for the week. The kids are home, so that means I need to have more cheap/easy/snacky things on hand. Thankfully, I shopped my pantry first and was able to find quite a few things to use for our dinners (saving me money, already)... but here is the meal plan I have for this weekend and all of next week.
A nice and easy summer menu. I also have MY shopping list ready... and I am pretty sure I will do a MUCH better job than the husband did. Psh. And he's the one complaining that I over spend at the grocery store. Wish me luck!
