Man! I hate going grocery shopping. I get home and I am too tired to cook!

I'll some times get a prepared meal while at the grocery store for that very reason. Get home and just have to warm it up, put stuff away while it is warming and then eat and relax.

@gmatthewb I really should have done that.

@SW-User Don't forget next time :D
SW-User
@gmatthewb Thanks. I usually do, but for some reason I spaced it tonight.

YEP! Try it on Senior Wednesday! Those old people will beat the shit out of you to get to the 10 for $10 cans of soup.

@xixgun 😂 It's senior Tuesday the first Tuesday of every month at Kroger.

@SW-User (I'm retired, I have no idea what day is what, I just know sometimes there are shitloads of Greys in the grocery store)

Isn’t that the ironic truth!

@SW-User That also sounds really good, especially if you have some fresh herbs to go between the pieces of cheese.
SW-User
@MrsKatherineArch Ooooh! Even better!
MrsKatherineArch · 41-45, F
@SW-User Yeah, it would add a little something extra, kind of like those banana peppers.
When I am at the store I also pick up things I can throw together for a quick meal after I get home.

Or sometimes what Missy and I do is buy stuff ( cheese, crackers, olives and a beverage, etc) and eat them at the store cafeteria, lol, they provide the plates and utensils and we go home happy with no dishes to clean
@SW-User Ahahaha, We did that recently for lunch and it was awesome.
SW-User
@Underconstruction I must do this!
@SW-User I always do that when I travel. If the store doesn´t have a cafeteria , I eat them at a park like a picnic. Great food for a lot less and it beats street food because it´s clean and well refrigerated.

I am too lazy to cook. I want to stop someplace on the way home for dinner. I love Chinese food but Chinese restaurant owners are really stingy when it comes to heating their establishments. I sometimes order things to go just because it is too damn cold.
SW-User
@JoyfulSilence Can you order Chinese for delivery in your area?
JoyfulSilence · 46-50, M
@SW-User Oh, I usually just stop on the way home. I am on a train now.

I never call, I just like to show up.

That’s why I worship Peapod. I shop online and nice, strong young men deliver my groceries.
SW-User
@LyricalOne I swear, if they delivered in my town I would never leave the house again.
LyricalOne · F
@SW-User Ugh, they’re wonderful! And I actually end up spending less on groceries. Even though there’s a small delivery charge and I tip, I’m not buying any impulse items.
SW-User
@LyricalOne Exactly! Makes so much sense!

This problem does not improve with the years. I no longer plan shopping and cooking on the same day.
SW-User
@greenmountaingal You are a wise woman!
SW-User
I know that feeling. I usually end up ending junk or weird combinations.
SW-User
@SW-User Yep!
Then you end up ordering food I'm guilty of this 😥😂
SW-User
@Snowvixen Yes!!!! Ugh!
Synyster · 51-55, M
Been there done that ... kinda feel guilty ordering out.
SW-User
@Synyster Me too!
