Yesterday, I was playing bridge with 3 other ladies. We were talking about soup cause one lady had not been feeling well and was eating lots of soup.
She mentioned Progresso soup, chicken noodle.
I had purchased a can of that soup on sale for about $1.50 and I liked it. However, when I went to get another can of it, the price was $2.50. I just can't make myself pay that much for a can of soup and I told her that.
She said that whenever she goes grocery shopping she never looks at the price of anything she buys so she is always shocked at how much her grocery bill is weekly.
Gosh, I can't imagine not looking at the price, can you?

Having a picky eater the age of 4, I will pay premium for the short list of things he will eat. I do watch the sale ads and clip coupons for those items. I also maintain a stockpile to keep the cost down, but sometimes I do need to bite the bullet and pay the top price.

I do remember a time when I did not look at prices at all while grocery shopping - for example in supermarkets in China when I lived there 6 month. If it is 2 yuan or 2.5 yuan or 5 yuan just did not matter.
I won't eat soup from cans, frozen dinners or McDonalds even for free.
