How about avoiding the store altogether. I don't go to the store any more but have my groceries delivered. I also earn money by referring others. Check it out at www.eraseyourexpense.com

Dear Readers:

Each store here has specialty items you can't get anywhere

else. Then each store here has specials at reduced prices.

Then larger stores are just so big. They sell clothes,

plants, and also groceries. So by the time I'm finished

I'm exhausted. Today I grabbed a man and gave his son $3.

just to put everything in my car. This was a big store and

I never went in the clothes section at all. My feet are

tired and now I had to unload the groceries into the house

and then get lunch. Now the cost of most things is out of

sight. Then I always forget to get two or three things.

Next decision is what store is the best to get the two or

three things I forgot. Now do I go without? Or do I make

another trip to a second store? Next thing is what do they

have on sale that I need? Oh! well, better luck next time,

on another day.
