I love HomeGoods, Hobby Lobby, Target, etc., but they cannot touch Walmart’s prices. And now that Walmart is improving their quality, it only makes sense to me to shop there.

But after doing it a couple of times when I didn't feel well or didn't really have time to grocery shop, it got better and better each time. Now, it is hard for me to go in and pick up a few things...it saves me so much time! Honey, I have the same problem...one post begets another and another.

And I do enjoy seeing blog posts about rooms being pulled together so why not store suggestions? But, there goes more time...will we end up becoming virtual people someday? My big chunk of browsing time goes to every single story on FB from Brit shelter magazines. I click on a two hundred year old cottage to see how it's decorated and then another and another and before you know it I'm late starting supper.

But we don’t have kids at home, so I don’t know how it would last under duress…LOL<br /><br />Yes, I do use them for grocery pickup. I love it! I have purchased strawberries and bananas and they have been really good choices. The bananas are always a little on the green side, but that’s okay. By the time we use them, they have fully ripened. I haven’t used them to pick out pork chops though, just ground beef and chicken. We usually get our chops at another grocery store, Brookshire’s, because they have really great fresh meat. I am very happy with them. The employees who bring the food out are all very nice and polite. They let you know ahead of time if they had to substitute something…you can choose to accept it or send it back. Usually the substitution is much better than what I picked but they only charge you for what you pick, not the cost of the item they had to substitute. It has cut our food budget because I don’t pick up items I don’t need. I do like that! Have a great day!
