1. Shop at off-hours (2 a.m. to 5 a.m.)
2. Let children buy whatever they want.
3. Allow children to eat whatever they want as you shop.
All joking aside, here are a few tips that worked for me:
- Before shopping everyone was fed, went to the bathroom and already napped.
- I organized my shopping list clustering items on same aisles together (best I could).
- Tried to shop at less busy times.
- Had the kids help find items on grocery list.
- Brought or bought a healthy snack for kids to eat while paying, to avoid the candy temptation at check-out.
How about sharing some favorites that worked for you?
Keeping it fun,

Those little baskets are great, aren't they? I much prefer them to the ones that have a kiddie car attached. Those are hard to steer, and no kid over one year old is going to stay inside the car.
ReplyDeleteYes, those little baskets have it all over the shopping carts with the car attached. Much easier and the kids love it!
