I have a wife. I haven't gone shopping in years without it being a simple pickup of item or two.
On the other hand, today I went and drove an hour to pay my taxes and I was starving on the way. So I stopped off at the grocery outlet and I blew 50 bucks on a combination of candy and alcohol. They have cheap coffee bourbon. It tastes great and keeps me going.
So anyway, I carry a handbasket whenever I shop to limit myself. If I can't carry it then I'm not allowed to have it. But I'm not stupid about it. The second it weighs anything that annoys me I place it at the end of an aisle and I wander the aisle and I come back and drop stuff off. Sometimes it's after I go around the next aisle and come back. Sooner or later someone's going to take that basket and put stuff back. That's okay, I'll go get it again.
