Groceries


CosmetologyMommy wrote: Just curious! I just got home from the store and DH NEVER HELPS ME and I was curious who else was in the same boat.....

Edward's Mommy replied: Chris NEVER helps! I do it all myself! dry.gif

mckayleesmom replied: Sometimes.....but I can do it faster if he doesn't. He just gets in my way and puts things in odd places. Then the kids follow him in and then I get really stressed out and want to scream.

gr33n3y3z replied: Yes when he is home
But the kids help also smile.gif

booey2 replied: No I have to do it myself too, I don't mind though because I can get it done and know where everything is I only wish someone would help me bring it in from the car. rolling_smile.gif

EvesMom replied: DH tries to help me, but he always puts things in the wrong place. So I prefer to do it myself.

3xsthefun replied: He helps me get them out of the car, but I put them away myself.

EvesMom replied:
I second that!

MommyToAshley replied: DH brings it in from the car, and helps to put them away also. As with all of our responsibilites (housework, business, and Ashley) we share it 50/50.

AlexsPajamaMama replied: DS and I do the grocery shopping on friday mornings and DH is sleeping after working all night. If we do go shopping together he helps, but doesnt really know where everything goes. I dont mind putting it away myself, hate carrying it all in up to our second floor apartment!!

luvmykids replied: He helps bring them in from the car but after that it's hands off or he'll eat all the kids snacks before I have the chance to put them away.

amynicole21 replied: We split grocery shopping just about 50/50, and we both usually put them away together. thumb.gif

kayla's mama replied: He helps me. He gets the cold stuff and I get the pantry. If you came to our house our food is all facing the same way and in caterogizes. Guess it comes with the territory of being a Grocer's wife rolleyes.gif

CAMSMOM1 replied: Shannan
This is one of my biggest pet peeves! I feel ya hon! wink.gif All Justin does is take the groceries from the car to the house. Grocery shopping is so time staking, then having to load the car, and put the groceries away. And all it takes him is 10 min to take the groceries in! dry.gif Drives me crazy! wacko.gif He acts like he doesn't know where they go...so he doesn't have to do it. rolleyes.gif But he sure knows how to find the food when he's hungry! emlaugh.gif

Celestrina replied: Steve likes to do the shopping. He'll go before he picks Ben up from the sitter's. She lives only a block away so he can get the groceries (he passes the market on the way home), unload them at home, then pick Ben up.

Bee_Kay replied:
Same here.
I grocery shop, he helps bring them in, and I put them away (and I like it that way).

DH is a VERY compulsive shopper rolleyes.gif

1lilpeanut2love replied: He usually brings them from the car, but sometimes I will bring them in. I usually put them away, but he does sometimes put them away if I need him to or if I take too long!! smile.gif We also always go grocery shopping together. We have been doing this together since we first meet 2 years ago! smile.gif

ashtonsmama replied: Yep-if he's home, he'll usually do all of it, especially if it's feeding time and he knows they'll sit out for a long time before I get to it-so I'm a lucky girl I guess!

holley79 replied: Shawn does most of the grocery shopping and putting it away.. LOL

Braydensmommy replied: Dh puts away everything that goes in the fridge and freezer and I put away stuff that goes else where in the house, like cleaning supplies and baby stuff.

~Roo'sMama~ replied: Yep. happy.gif Usually we end up grocery shopping at night, so by the time I come back downstairs after laying Andrew down, the groceries are all brought in and most of them put away. Sometimes he leaves the non-refridgerated stuff for me since it doesn't have to be put away quickly, but that's fine with me. wink.gif

He helps bring them in and put them away even if it's not late and Andrew doesn't need to be put to bed. smile.gif

PrairieMom replied: I voted no, because usually I go when he is at work, so I am the only one who can put stuff away. Now that I am so PG, we have been going at night, then he will help, but when I get back onto my regular schedule I will have to do it all myself again.

Nina J replied: Yes, DH helps. I think 30% of him does it to be nice, and the other 70% does it to see if I brought anything good rolling_smile.gif

coasterqueen replied: Dh helps me DO the grocery shopping, bring it in the house and put it away. Just like with all other chores everything is pretty much 50/50. thumb.gif

Chiflata2003 replied: Sometimes, especially if he is feeling guilty about the way he treated/talked to me before I left, lmao

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: Sometimes. But I typically shop during the day, so DH is at work when I get home with the groceries. I like to organize them in a certain way anyway, so I don't mind putting them away myself. blush.gif I do wish he were around to take them out of the car though...

My2Beauties replied: Yes he does. He usually helps me bring them in and he cleans out the old stuff out of the fridge while I hand him everything to put in there. Sometimes he doesn't help but that is usually when I just got a few things, so I voted yes!

kentuckygirl replied: [COLOR=blue][FONT=Arial][SIZE=7]If I am at work while Robert goes to the store, he puts everything away,but if i am at home ,me and the kids bring the stuff in and I put it away. wavey.gif

kimberley replied: dry.gif no!

Crystalina replied: We have a little system. We each take a bag and even give the kids a small one and then DH goes and continues to bring the bags in while I put everything away. By the time he's done bringing in the last bag everything but that bag has been put away and we both get done at the same time. cool.gif
