Grocery shopping is like a million times harder than I thought it would be when you are by yourself. Terrible. I couldn't find anything.

Hippopo

It gets easier.  What were you looking for?

l a c e y

Ice cream cones which were no where near the ice cream. Pancake mix which was not in a place I would have assumed. Ketchup that was simple to find and cereal was easy to find cause it has it's own row. Then other little things that were scattered about the store.

why

Just get a bag of flour and a can of baking powder.

That'll provide enough pancakes to last you a month and cost under $10.

You just walk up and down all the isles. Eventually you'll find what you're looking for.

Well it only cost like $3.99 so it wasn't to bad plus it's sweet.

That's actually what I did and I had to do some isles a few times.

$4 for one day of pancakes, or $10 for a month of pancakes?

And you can just spoon in some sugar. I do. I also add some chili powder to my pancakes and everyone thinks it's cinnamon. spam;

Seize the fucking day.

I have 350 pictures which catalog everything my mother has bought in the last few months. I have a good variation and a list of several essential items which any properly stocked home must have. In addition, I have written down all the heath, medicine, and first aid stuff, as well as mapping out the "survival area". Like having a shitload of bottled water, drinks, canned foods, soups, etc... even motherfucking blankets and clean sheets. Who fucking knew!?  AWESOME

See, you could be proactive too. :3

Well I'm not really concerned about saving money.

for the most part we do. however, for people that like to conveniently have bottled water to quench thirst spills as they travel and roam about, bottled water makes sense.

also, thirty-six 12 ounce water bottles cost somewhere in the vicinity of under 4 dollars. they're good for five days or so. I have been making 500-700$ every 5 days consistently, for a few years now. thanks for the suggestion though.   :3

grocery shopping is immensely fun until you realize food is fucking expensive

but that's why you shoplift, and shoplifting is why I know every Lunds, Byerlys, Target, and Kowalski's within a 20-mile radius inside-out
