37. I switched over to the "click list" a few years ago

My husband was too sick and leaving him to go run through the store was just getting too difficult. Even with someone here while I went. My local Kroger started the click list, where you order online and then go pickup. After he passed this December I stuck with it.

Eventually I'll shop again but I'm grateful for the ability to just pick up. Just the wiping it all down, and then cleaning the car is enough. I am so grateful for those folks willing to walk the aisles for me. Always try to tip them, but they have always refused. I keep trying though.
