Costco Grocery Shopping List
I always find summer a great time to get organized. After giving birth to our ninth child and being unable to go grocery shopping for quite some time, I realized that it is much easier to have master grocery lists, based on store layout, then it is to say, “We need this. We need that.” I was finding that the latter grocery-list-making strategy, which has served us well for years, wasn’t working well. I found myself saying, “Oh, I forgot to tell you that we needed….”
Two or three months ago, I finally typed up a master Costco grocery list. I am sharing it here just in case others can benefit from seeing it. I say seeing it, rather than using it, because I know that Costco stores have different layouts.

We also use a list like this, more detailed, but we hang it onto a kitchen cabinet. Every time we think of something, we write it down. Our next decent grocery store is about 45 minutes away, so it is important to not forget things. Our lists also includes little check boxes to check off when you have found the item in the store. (You could also just use the box to mark things you need.) And I have blank lines in each category. After the birth of our third child, my husband took over the grocery shopping. We both write down what we need.
What do you use the parchment paper for?

We use it for lining cookie sheets and cake pans for certain cookie and cake recipes. The parchment paper is fairly inexpensive at Costco . It can be found with the plastic wrap and aluminum foil.
Interesting. At the moment, this is working really well when my husband does the shopping. I still do better without a list. Actually, the list that I typed up is the same one that is in my head. 🙂
We have had a master Costco list for years. it's the only way I can keep my sanity and helps my husband "stick with the list" otherwise we end up with a lot of unnecessary and too many items that weren't on the list 😉 We are SO blessed to have husbands who will shop for us, it's my greatest luxury!! God Bless Them! xxoo
