Ugh need grocery help

Please or Register to create posts and topics.

I just got back from Safeway and it was a disaster. The toddler meltdown started in the produce aisle because he wanted the organic berries, which are like 8 dollars a container. Then we went to checkout and they only had two registers open. I waited 20 minutes with a screaming kid and a cart full of stuff. It was 5:30 PM, rush hour, of course. I’m so tired. I forgot the milk too, I swear I will never learn. What’s your secret for getting it all done without losing your mind?

@Sunticket Oh wow, I feel you on the toddler meltdowns in the store! Mine is obsessed with the sugary cereals every single time. We ended up just grabbing a different fruit this week, it's not worth the fight.

Honestly, @Sunticket, that Safeway trip sounds rough. We've started doing curbside pickup more often, less temptation for the little one (and me!). At least you got out of there eventually.

@Sunticket Ugh, organic berries are SO pricey. My kiddo also has a thing for the expensive stuff, I just pretend I don't see it sometimes. Hope the rest of your day got better.

Safeway can be a nightmare, @Sunticket. My youngest once threw a whole carton of eggs because he didn't get a cookie. We just bolted after that. Hope you survived!
