So I hate grocery shopping as much as you do. Yes, sometimes if I get out of the house without the kids to go grocery shopping, it may feel a little like a vacation… but still… I DESPISE grocery shopping.
And now that grocery pick-up and delivery is a thing, my grocery shopping life is SO much easier. BUT…

How to Use my Grocery Shopping Master List:
For probably close to 15 years, my mom has been using something that has changed her (and my) daunting grocery shopping trips.
She created a master copy of a grocery shopping list, and after taking hers and adding a little pink and “fantabulosity flair”, I’m sharing this version with you!
How to Use the Grocery List Template:
- Simply download and print.
- Hang it on the refrigerator door (or wherever your central station is).
- Highlight the items with a highlighter as needed, as you run out or think of them.
- Take the list with you to the store when you’re ready.
- Grab your highlighted items at the store, and you’re all set!
Print, again and again, to keep the same system going!
Common Grocery Items
Wondering if this list has common grocery items on it? YES! This list was created with everyday staples with a “family” in mind.
This list has the main categories you’re used to shopping for like,
- Household
- Breakfast Food
- Bread
- Deli
- Dry Ingredients
- Beverages
- Dairy
- Canned Foods
- Children
- Frozen Foods
- Baking Goods
- Spices
- …and so much more!
With individual items under each category like:
- butter
- milk
- cake mix
- bread
- shredded cheese
- salt
- pepper
- cereal
- pop tarts
- light bulbs
- paper towels
- …and so many more everyday items you need!
My Favorite Ways to Grocery Shop:
I’m a BIG fan of Walmart Grocery Pickup and Instacart Delivery.
With two little boys at home… loading up and heading to the grocery store to spend an hour saying “no” to cookies, toys and fruit snacks… doesn’t really sound like a ton of fun.
So when Walmart grocery pickup and Instacart came to my hometown, I immediately fell in love.
I can easily place my order online and either head down the street to pick up my groceries, or they show up on my doorstep a few hours later with what I need!
List for Online Grocery Ordering
I STILL use this grocery shopping list, even though I’m ordering online.
I keep the grocery list handy throughout the week, and still mark up the items I need, as I realize we need them.
But the difference from going to the store, is I simply sit down on my couch while my favorite tv show is on, and I order away by what my list says I need!

That really is a neat idea. Keep it in a go to spot and you’ll never forget again!
Jessica says
Thank you! I totally agree! Maybe hang it in the mudroom or by a table you always walk by before heading out to the car! Hmm… You just gave me an idea for my mudroom area in my new house that we’re moving in to! Stay tuned… I’ll be posting about that soon! Thank you!
Missy Homemaker says
Great printable! This list will be great to hang in our kitchen and when something runs out, someone can easily mark it down (in theory. In reality, it will be me going through the cupboards marking it before going shopping.) 🙂
Jessica says
Haha! Thank you! You’re so right. That’s me right before going to the grocery store every week! Haha! Thank you so much!
