And since I always seem to leave my shopping list at home, I'll have that handy to make sure I get everything I need. Unfortunately, I don't really have any time-saving tips.

I've do it for ages, but then 2000/2001 I worked on it from the other side so know a lot about it.<br /><br />The 3 things that are usually perfomance measured are:<br />delivering within the time slot<br />no of short products<br />no of substitutions<br /><br />I keep an eye on these stil with my deliveries and have changed supermarkets a couple of times when I think the performance isn't good enough.<br /><br />How they handle something going badly wrong is also something I watch out for.Shevvyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16597474715523695213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-48241376388336285742012-05-26T08:28:45.473+09:302012-05-26T08:28:45.473+09:30Online grocery shopping, hmmm I just did some with...Online grocery shopping, hmmm I just did some with a 3 year old in tow and it took me 10 min just to get a park because every other *** was rushing, it was raining and nobody seems to have a clue about how to park/drive! Personally I like grocery shopping, but I buy stuff I dont need and I dont plan my meals well enough - so thanks for the tip, I am going to give it a whirl! My time saver tip is to job share eg that means with DH! Surely he can pay the bills on line! You have to pretend your in a shared house and divide up all the chores...because if you both work then thats only fair!

Here it's way up over $4 per gallon... which is quite a shock to us all.<br />Personally, I like shopping. It's the only way to get out of the house.<br />I save time by cleaning only when guests are eminent. What's a little dust?

For me, the shop's 5 mins down the road, and I organise my list so that I do a big shop at the start of the month, and then a top up fruit and veg shop halfway through the month. I anally plan out every meal for the month before I write my shopping list too - I don't have to eat something on a certain night, I can switch things around if I want, but I know I have the ingredients for them. That takes me maybe 15 mins, but it makes it a total no brainer when I come in from work and can just grab what I need and go!Katy Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04374079358515448439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-4703234852028180312012-05-25T20:55:47.157+09:302012-05-25T20:55:47.157+09:30We don't even have online grocery shopping as ...We don't even have online grocery shopping as an option here!

I'm fair...I second the idea for cleaning help!<br /><br />I'm fairly certain we have online grocery shopping, but I almost think you have to pick up the bags at the grocery store, like a drive-thru. <br /><br />I'm one of those weird people that likes to grocery shop, though, because I love the impulse buys....and I usually have some sort of inspiration that will strike while I'm perusing the aisles. <br /><br />Are you serious about working 25 more years - that really sounds like a looooonnnnnggggg time. If anyone can do it, though - you can!Kirsten's Cookinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09129971420086685005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-73961104243153564572012-05-25T20:11:44.013+09:302012-05-25T20:11:44.013+09:30I wish we had home delivery here for groceries! I...I wish we had home delivery here for groceries! I shop online for other things and find it a real time saver and generally less expensive. <br /><br />Do you pay bills online? That's a huge time saver for me. My other tip is to hire someone to clean your house. I work far too hard to spend my weekend doing the harder cleaning.

You are tired so you don't do anything well or effectively and then you are tired the next day and can't perform well or make good decisions.)
