[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL, when alone, I do sometimes "study" the pasta sauce aisle, comparing sales, $/oz, glass versus plastic jars, sugar content etc, when I could just grab and move on. When with my teen kids, we talk and laugh and negotiate splurges or treats, and probably annoy OP in both scenarios. 
I get annoyed at adult couples buying groceries together looking very serious and strategizing how to split the aisles as if this were a timed game show with big stakes or a very serious difficult two-person task. I'm probably just envious, right?

Agree on the adult couple grocery shopping together.  Big production.  Clog the aisle.  Lots of drama.  I am not envious of their togetherness.[/quote]

Meanwhile, shopping with my husband makes me irrationally angry and I try to avoid it. We have totally different approaches to grocery shopping and his approach is wrong. My goal is to efficiently get everything on my list so that I can go do something I enjoy more than grocery shopping. His approach is to spend 20 minutes examining heads of lettuce to select the right one while also wondering if maybe the should make something that doesn't involve lettuce at all, maybe we should do spinach, but if we do that maybe we should do a different protein? It's too much for me, I want to be at home on the couch watching Great British Bakeoff and eating olives. [/quote]

Thanks for making me laugh! I am a bit like your husband but I don’t subject anyone else to my grocery musings [/quote]
