My name is Amy Riley....and I have an addiction.

I have a problem. When I need to buy groceries, I sit down to write my list, but this isn't just any list. It is a bunch of lists. Then, after I make my lists I sit and wonder which grocery store I should visit first. Below are the stores I visit plus Stater Bros...which I couldn't find a logo to post here. Anyhow, at first it started off with just a few, but soon recommendations were made and I had to check out some others and now it is a smörgåsbord of grocery stores. At first, it was about finding the best place to buy cheap produce, or the best place to find healthy snacks for Kamryn or the best place to buy in bulk (that one is obvious)...but what it really comes down to is that I just enjoy going to different grocery stores. There is something refreshing about not walking down the same aisles everytime I go to the store. Each day I get to visit a different place. Okay, so I don't go to a grocery store every day, but some weeks I have found myself visiting 5 different grocery stores. Crazy you say? I bet I'm not the only one....just the only one who will admit it. I figure I'll eventually burn out....but for now, an addiction it is and an addiction it will stay!

I don't think I make a list for that many places, but I'm sure I visit that many. I'll join your Grocery Store Anonymous group.

Hi Amy!

I go to three grocery stores, so I hear you!

(Although, I have to say that, for the sake of time, I wish I could just visit one.)

NO, I think your crazy. I would never subject my self to taking Jaxson to 5 different stores. Maybe it's because that would require me to lift him in and our of his car seat. Plus he's getting heavy. I think he's gaining sympathy weight instead of Tyson.
