Running down to Spar
my favourite shop
not to small and not to big;
okay, let’s do it.
First, some veg
toms, avos and lettuce
no, that’s not right
not lettuce but lemons.
Next aisle, bread
two types – bagels (yum)
and also Albany sliced
seeded brown and delicious.
Now over to the chillers
that’s two litres of semi-skimmed milk
six little yogurts – just plain
and obviously eggs, also six.
Looking at the list quickly
kitchen roll (always useful)
so now there’s only one thing
it’s for Luna – Whiskas.
Just to pay… and out.
Let me see, what’s the time?
I’ve shaved a couple of minutes off!
Excellent, and thank you Spar.

Absolutely. Luna (my cat) always writes in capital letters, and she’ll write it at the top of the list. Of course.🐈⬛
Thanks, Dave.

I’ve done speed shopping in the past – a list is a necessity! Now in retirement I’m a slow and careful shopper – calculating the per ounce cost and weighing the pros and cons of name brand over generic!

I am very impressed how you manage in those supermarkets. Well done, Val!

Thanks Chris – speed shopping was a necessity with 2 small children! The sweet spot between happy and entering the cranky zone….

That’s the first time I’ve ever seen shopping as fun, Chris!
For me it’s a necessary drag, one of the few down moments in my life.
Maybe I’ll rethink it, hmm?

I did so much shopping and have so many leftovers from our family gathering that I don’t have to visit the grocers for awhile!
