LPT: A simple trick to avoid forgetting items at the grocery store

r/

Next time you are shopping, take a quick photo of your cart before checking out. If you realize you forgot something later, you can easily compare it to your list or the photo to make sure you did not miss anything important. It’s simple way to save a trip back to the store!

    Or you know… Cross items off your list as you grab them? If any are uncrossed, it must mean I did not grab it yet

    What a dreadful tip. Have you ever packed a cart with a lot of items? They all stack up and you wouldn’t see what’s underneath.

    Also, if you’re still with your items after checking out, why look at a picture and not the actual physical items in front of you?

    How does this save you a trip back to the store if you aren’t realizing you forgot something until after you’re already back home?
