[quote=Anonymous]As others would say, I would give her either a credit card or cash to use. It's really not fair to ask her to front the cost of groceries for your entire family because it puts her in the awkward position of either having to admit to you at times that she doesn't have enough money to cover it or her having to float the difference between the time she buys the groceries and you reimburse her. If you're worried about her spending, just require that she give you the receipt after each purchase. And if there are certain budget issues you want her to be aware of like that you want her to buy the off-brand instead of the name brand to save money, make her aware of that. I've also known employers in these situations who took their nanny grocery shopping with them once or twice at the start so she could see how you like the shopping done/items bought.[/quote]
