I do and I try to stick by it too. I see that helps me save money because if I do not buy on an impulse I am less liking to spend if I had the list. So do you make one? And do you stick by it?

Yes, I always made a  grocery shopping list as it help me to buy only thing that I really need. And sometimes I'm buying something on an impulse but not as much if I don't bring my list.

I sometimes make a list of the things that we are completely out of that I need to pick up at the store.  I have tried making lists in the past for everything, but I never seem to stick to it and buy things that are not on the list.

It is very hard to stick to a list but in the end for me it is the best thing. The other day I went to the store and forgot my list. I can almost everything I needed but I forgot about 2 items. But you know I also spent more too than I would have because I also got some items that were not on the list. I prefer to shop on a list. Thanks everyone for giving me your input:)

I also try to stick to a list. Sometimes its in my head(which it shouldn't be) and others it is on paper where I can make sure I see it. It does seem to save money when you only go in for the things on your list.

l usually prepare a list first, before l go shopping for grocery things. It's because l always tends to spend more if l don't prepare a list. When l buy according to the list, l always ended-up spending less money. Besides that, l discovered that l had spend less on unneccesary things, as well..

Yes , you should make a list what you want to buy so that you didnot forget the useful things which you need daily

It is so hard to make a shopping list that I can actually stick to each week. Especially when you see sale items and whatnot. Meats are always different prices, and so are produce. I try to make a list before I head out to the market, but I always end up seeing a buy one get one deal and can't resist.
