Poll: Grocery shopping while hungry

What types of foods would you normally NOT buy but  end up buying at the grocery store if you go to the store on an empty stomach?

Re: Poll: Grocery shopping while hungry

  • I fall victim to the Publix BOGO sales all.the.time. 

    I'm a scattered grocery shopper, anyway, so I always end up leaving with stuff I didn't intend on buying! 

  • I always end up buying crackers, hummus, and those kashi cereal bar things.. I guess because that's what I can imagine myself snacking on at the moment!
  • I make a list so I do pretty well with not giving into impulse purchases. However, I love fountain soda so I always end up grabbing a diet coke from the deli area. I sometimes fall victim to the hot and spicy chicken wings that smell so good.

    He's my fairytale, a dream when I'm not sleeping.

  • nothing specific, but I always end up buying more than I should!

    I am exactly the same way. I can't pass up a bargain. I normally have a list in my mind of what we need but then I end up going aisle by aisle looking for stuff I "might" need. Both DH and I are the same way so we always buy way too many things.
  • Total impulse buyer here... unfortunately donuts or cake will come home with me if I'm hungry or upset.

    LOL this is exactly what I buy!!! How funny!  We have the same snacks :)

    I also will add to that:

    - baked chips

    - soda (never buy it normally)

    - cereal


  • I hate going grocery shopping on an empty stomach. I want to get everything! But when I do go hungry I end up buying Swiss Rolls. It never fails. YUM!!!!

  • I don't think there's one specific thing...but I always end up buying more than I should...but if there's one thing that is definitely a repeat it's Oreos...I normally try not to buy them because I will eat the whole package by myself in one sitting...but when I'm hungry they just look so good!
