Grocery shopping- Emotionally, mentally financially draining you?

I just got home about 2 hours ago from food shopping and I feel so wiped out. With browsing the stores, things not really where they belong and running one isle to the next to find things,with prices of things going up, people being rude and in the way, some even bumping you not even saying "sorry". What used to be an enjoyable chore has for me, become a emotionally, mentally and financial straining task. It is bad enough just getting there and back with the idiots on the road now days, but I get more tired when I come home from shopping than if I were to do a house full of chores, or working. Does anyone else feel this way?

Grocery shopping- Emotionally, mentally financially draining you?
I honestly thought I was the only one. I made the mistake of going to Wal-Mart last week, simply to save money because I hadn't gone grocery shopping in a while and knew I would have to get a lot. I HATE GOING for the reasons you described above...my husband doesn't get how draining it is for me to go in there. I usually just go to Publix and suffer the higher prices in exchange for a better experience...but yes. To answer your question, I come home in a horrible mood and just want to go to bed.
Reply:I totally understand what you are saying! I now order online supermarket shopping. It is wonderful. You click on what you want, they deliver. No more hassles. Check and see if this service is available by you. I highly recommend it.
Reply:Yuck, I feel the exact same way. I have one day a week dedicated to doing the domestic duties. First, I get all of my out of the house things finished, including grocery shopping. Then I open a bottle of cheap wine and focus on the house. By the time the bottle is empty, I no longer care how clean the house is! The secret is to rotate what you clean so everything gets done eventually.
Reply:Yep....I usually try to go with a list and early in the morning when I've got more energy and less crowds to deal with.
