BTW, how much do the lasses in the Windy City (which it would be given the bananas) charge for that service? Organic extra?

I've gone and done my foraging at the tarted up Lakeland shop, and they've arranged it differently and it's not so easy to work out a sensible route round.

And I couldn't buy what I wanted because they were out of stock. Why, I wonder, does everyone else want the plastic boxes with airtight seals that are just the right size for a kilo of flour? Surely not for the reason I do - to make sure that the horrid little flour beetles can't find the stuff?

So I bought other stuff instead. Cleaning stuff, moulds for the cheese I make when the milk gets that way inclined, and, so I could use my voucher, two packets of posh dessert. Panna cotta and Sicilian lemon pot. The instructions reckon the packs are enough for four servings. That would be servings in egg cups, I'm thinking. Two, I think. But then I'm not posh.

It's all right, Bobert, because we chat to the boss too. She not flirtable material but she's good for a chat.

Brightens up the shopping day.

Nothing personal, Art, but I'm sure that a flirting 60ish male brightens up a 20-year-old female's life. How quickly we forget!

Or, looking at it from another point of view, you're giving them a brief break. The boss might get suspicious if they spent a couple of minutes talking to another 20-something.

That is very sexist, Ed T. And true.

Of course, ya gotta pick the "right" old lass. If she is talking to herself and unkempt in appearance, ya might wanna look at a flier instead. Corn meal don't cost no $2.79 a bag.

WAY off thread drift... I am often called upon at some grocery stores where I see senior "regulars" to pick out shit for them. I REALLY enjoy doing it. I ALWAYS say, "Now, old dear, let me get my glasses on so I can have a GOOD look and also check the dates... the bastards make the writing so small, don't they?"

Yeah, it ain't much and ya can't call it "community service" but I feel good about helping them pick out a good cut of meat or tell them the green beans are rusty and they are better at wherever or get some cheese that didn't expire last month... hey, ya GOTTA check the dates at the Coop... and the Superstore... those guys are lax on the dates. Greedy bastards!

My brother once revealed his thrifty shopping strategy.

Never mind looking at they sale flyers before you shop (maybe it is best on Friday mornings).

Just follow a female senior (well, he actually said "an old woman") and pick the items they do (those that you want) - you will mostly get all the best prices without much effort on your part. Let them do all the preparation for you :)

Being a man, I enjoy being one of the first thru the doors upon opening on the first day of the sale, getting what I have listed and getting out. VERY seldom will I buy something which is not on sale because this means I have failed as a man to plan ahead or can't man-up and do without.

I also enjoy going for brisk walks in grocery stores rather than around the neighbourhood because it doesn't snow, rain, blow, swelter or freeze and "girl watching" is still one of my favourite hobbies. There are a lot of grocery stores within a ten minute drive and I know the prices of many items in each which allows me to strike up conversations... "Those are two for five bucks at the Coop this week if yer goin by there." "Oh dear. Those look terrible compared to the ones at Sobeys and the price is about the same. Garbage on sale is still garbage." "They have hard shell Fundy lobsters at..."

Girl watching at grocery stores is an art. Time of day, time of week and time of month... ahhhh, errr... Time of day, day of week and week of month... yeah, that's better... coupled with what's on sale has a lot to do with what kinda girls you get to watch. For example, as I am 55, I avoid the Coop on Friday morning between 9 and 11AM because every elderly person within ten miles that can get there will be there on the first day of the weekly sales. Conversely, I make it a point to be at the Superstore(s) on Wednesday and Thursdays in the second and fourth weeks of the month because those are pay weeks and the girl watching is at it's height. I don't walk briskly in the meat, dairy or frozen food sections.

I am a smart shopper.

Oh, yeah, I am single so I can walk as fast or slow as I want. Except in Princess Auto where I and all the other guys go into P-Vine mode. Man that place is addictive. Don't even matter that there's hardly any girl watchin.

How walkable is your community? A parking lot is not the best place for a stroll. Once in a big store, you go looking for what you need, and what you didn't know you needed until you saw it.

I've been without a car for almost six months now. My feet hurt like hell!

for me, a shopping list is something I leave on the dining -room table. Then I stand in the grocery store trying to reconstruct it in my mind. "Let's see, there was an item with two words, kinda long."

"Dishwasher detergent! Yeah!"
