It’s inevitable that we have to go grocery shopping at one time or another, so what do you dislike & like about it?
My dislike is the people who tend to not be conscious of the fact that others are there shopping too. When I worked 2nd shift, I loved going after at around midnight. It was less crowded & I could take my time.
 
It's necessary, but figuring out what you want can be tough, and hitting the sales is always a must.
 
I like there are many different types of food I can buy at a grocery store. But, I dislike that the price of food is becoming less affordable for people who are not rich.
 
it's a lot easier instead of browsing the stores to find everything. I do the same thing lol
Yes ^^
However the online shipping is a bit expensive and not to mention the delivery fee and the service fee of the platform but... Oh well (_ _)/
 
My husband and I have discovered that if we go grocery shopping when we're hungry, then we tend to spend more money when grocery shopping. If we go when we're full then nothing at the store sounds good and we don't spend that much.
 
I hardly shop in stores now since I use Instacart, but I always found it annoying when people would take up the entire aisle and block your way. This sucked even more when I worked in retail. People would be standing right in front of where I needed to stock and I didn't want to be rude.
 
If I'm not hungry when I go grocery shopping then I don't buy enough groceries for the week.

If I'm hungry when I go grocery shopping then I end up buying more groceries than I need.
 
The crowds are the worst. I always hate going during peak hours because I feel like it takes longer. I can be in and out pretty quickly at the store I regularly go to if I go at the right time.

But also going when hungry because I always end up buying more than I need and end up buying what's not on the list. Sometimes, making that list is rough too.

Also sucks going the day before a holiday lol.
 
For me it depends on my mood. Sometimes I actually enjoy walking around and grabbing stuff, it feels like someone is relaxing, especially if the store was not packed with people. And at other times, I just wanna get out quickly because people start to troop in, it drives me nuts.
