Yeah, I know...
Pretty pathetic.
I should know what I'm supposed to be buying. Those tortilla for example. We've only purchased that one brand for probably a decade. I saw it, threw one in the cart, but decided to pick it up and snap a quick picture of the package and texted my wife just to be sure.
I did the same thing with the chips...
Just to be sure.
For both instances, I punted. I relied on the expertise of an expert--my wife. I know it's not politically correct, but my wife has chosen those items (and thousands of others...) since we've been married over thirty years ago. And because I am not the primary shopper/chooser in the household, I wanted to make sure my choices were right before I bought them and brought them home.
I saw something years ago that showed a "Shopping List for Husbands." It was just a bunch of photos of the things the husband was to buy. It was supposed to be funny, but...
I thought it was genius.
Perhaps not all husbands resort to this method of shopping, but I know I do, and I don't see me stopping anytime soon.
