Imagine Doing the Grocery Shopping and Loving Every Minute of it….Impossible?
I know where I’d rather be on a Saturday morning and it isn’t under fluorescent lights, battling crowds and filling plastic bags. It’s on the beach, or in the bush, maybe even a cheeky cuppa at the café up the road.
There’s nothing more painful than thinking about struggling through the shopping. Eating into time I don’t have, deciding what to buy too many times, ending up over budget every time. Stick to the list, stick to the list… but they’re so good at making you wander down the aisles & off your list!. With 39, 000 products on the shelf they depend on it!
I decided it was time to embrace technology and yes I started doing it online…
Lean how shopping online can take the pain out of your weekly shop, giving you more time to do the things you love.
