Have you Tried a Smart Cart Yet?

2. Ugh!

I shop at TJ’s and Publix, the latter of which taunts us endlessly with BOGO offers (buy one, get one free). We’re forever coming home with a ton of crap we never would have bought otherwise. Hm… I *do* like these pita chips… I *do* need rolled oats… lunch salads… pizzas… oooh! Ripple (vegan milk I only buy on sale)! and on and on. Doesn’t help to have my son along, too, because he’ll eat everything. We’ll go in there with a carefully constructed shopping list of eight items and come out with a receipt for $128 or worse. *sigh*

Random sales are bad enough. Having them track me and aim deals directly to me? Ew. That’s not how to tighten the beltstraps.
