I love going grocery shopping solo, but grocery shopping with a baby and toddler? 
@sprouts grocery pickup for the win! You can order your groceries online, they're ready within 2 hours, you drive up to reserved parking spots at the store, then someone walks them out to your car and loads them in your trunk. I didn't even have to unbuckle the kids from their carseat! Such a mom win! . Need more time saving tips? Sharing 10 on the blog today! . @sprouts $300 GIFT CARD GIVEAWAY CLOSED!

Nearly all supermarket chains now have an online ordering platform that allows you to select groceries from the comfort of your own home while using your phone or a computer.
While the process might sound daunting, it’s actually quite easy. You can search foods either by name or category, add them to your shopping cart, and go shopping in a virtual way that keeps you safe and lessens the headache of the whole process.
Some platforms offer a delivery option, but the most common way of getting your groceries is by driving to the store and having the groceries delivered to your car curbside. Isn’t that convenient?
PROS: • Super fast and easy • Didn’t need to get out of my car 
• Earned $3 back on @ibottaapp CONS: • Had to spend $30 to qualify for pick up • May have been able to spend less if I’d gone to multiple stores like usual • Had to wait several hours for my pick up time slot (I was antsy about going 
) Overall I would definitely do it again! The ease this option brings is really what sells it. And that the prices are the same as in store 
What are your thoughts on grocery pickup/delivery?? . . . . . . . . #groceryhaul #groceryshopping #grocerystore #grocerypickup #walmartgrocerypickup #ibottadeals #frugalliving #frugallife #frugalmom #mommahoodonabudget #budgetshopping #budgetlifeIn short, be sure to consider online grocery ordering if your local supermarket offers up this option. It’s safe, easy, and effective!

]]>Put Herbs In Water
When you start sorting groceries, make sure that you put the herbs in water. Just pick a large jar, fill it and put all of your herbs in there. This is a very helpful tip that will save you from a second trip to the supermarket.
Wrap Greens In A Paper Towel
Once you get home, take out all of the leafy greens out of the bags. It doesn’t matter how you store them as long as you wrap them in a paper towel. If the greens are in a plastic bag there will be moisture and they won’t last as long.
Learn What To Separate
Not all groceries are meant to be stored together. There are fruits and vegetables that produce ethylene gas and they should be separated from the foods that don’t. If not, all of your groceries won’t last long. Apples, avocados, figs, cantaloupe, apricots all release this gas. That’s why they should be put in a different place from berries, lettuce, and other leafy vegetables.
