What's on Your Permanent List?

**AmyBoz** · 05-07-2006, 01:48 PM

I was shopping today and was only getting the items that we need every week, because our pantry and fridge/freezer are pretty well stocked. It made be wonder if other people have their "permanent list" of groceries. Items that they need to buy no matter what, each week.

For us, the permanent list is:
2 gallons milk
2 loaves wheat bread
2 pounds baby carrots
1 bunch bananas
1 bunch grapes
10 apples

What's on your permanent list?

I just went today and got the basics.

Fruit for the week, something for dh (apples, oranges, pears - whatever is cheapest) and something for the kids (grapes, bananas, apples, whatever is the cheapest) - sometimes all of the above

Salad stuff - some sort of lettuce, whatever is cheapest, carrots, and maybe cucumbers or tomatoes

eggs

yogurt - I am always out of yogurt for either the kids or dh, or dd (she eats soy), so I am always buying some sort of yogurt

cheese - 3 of my kids love string cheese, so I am always buying this as well

My kids go nuts with my basics. I have the same as you all do, but I can never think of anything new and exciting (but healthy and yummy) that they could have as snacks! I'm in a rut!

Fresh veggies, coffee creamer, I usually buy eggs in a 5 dozen carton and extra bread for the freezer (not weekly items). I like to look for a stockup item thats on sale and buy 3 or 4 for the pantry each week.

Milk and fresh produce, these are the things I get every single time I go to the store.

I don't have a permanent list- there is nothing that we go through and absolutely need every time we shop. The thing that is probably closest is bottled water and italian whole wheat bread.
