This blows, I spent 20 minutes in the grocery store and all I came out with was Scoops Fritos and Onion Dip. Yet I can remember my mom being able to go in and come out with a basket full of stuff in the same time. How the hell?

Maybe if it had been a hunt it would have been better.

You just have to canvas the area, know your prey's common nesting areas, and systematically eliminate one target after the next starting from one end of the store to the other.
Think. :)

Yeah you really need to make a list prior to shopping. I'm the same way pretty much if I don't make a list. And I always end up by snack food type shit...

Yes! Thats exactly what I do. I know my gameplan before I go in the store. Its sorta like knowing your build order in sc. First I will go to this aisle then that one. Have a list and mark it off as you go. I dread shopping more than anything and resist it until I am starving so I have learned to get in and out in as little time as possible.

the real devil is the most important things are at the back of the store.. you come in to buy some milk and bread, real quick, 2min max.
walk down the aisles to get to the back "hey i could use that. hey i'm running low on that"
walk out 30min later with a bag of $40 stuff, come home, figure out you forgot to buy the milk and the bread.

brilliant design by the store owners that's for sure.
