I don’t like raw onions and I’m always forgetting to pick them up when making a dish that calls for onions. I can’t count the number of times we’ve had spaghetti or meatloafs sans onion!
I always forget that which you only need to get once in a great while when you run out- like salt!
Thanks a bunch!

I can never remember to bring home the obscure item of the week… like chipotle chiles in adobo sauce… because I can’t find it the first time I look for it!
The most annoying thing I forget is milk! It seems to happen the most since we always need some.
@njdespres is following you on Twitter! And still forgets whatever it is I need most!

Love your blog and can’t go shoppin’ without it!
I generally forget the milk. It’s the one thing I don’t write down because we almost ALWAYS need it and I just KNOW I will remember it.. ha! and you’d think i would learn!
I always forget bread.
Milk. Even when that is the only thing I am going to the store for, I will get sidetracked (usually looking at clearance stuff lol) and totally forget the milk.
I just noticed that up above Dulce said the same thing. Glad to know I’m not the only one!
I usually forget whatever I am using to make my breakfast – smoothie ingredients, frozen waffles, whatever…
The most often forgotten item on my list is always the thing I need most. Lately it has been Pam spray.

I often forget my entire shopping list, so I wander aimlessly thru the store trying to remember what I needed to get. I also hate it when I get all organized, go to the store, grab my shopping list out of my purse and realize I’ve forgotten all my coupons! Either way, it becomes a very bad shopping day for me. :-}
That always sucks. If I had my list and no coupons I think I would turn right around and go home. At least with my coupons and no list I know most of the stuff I came to buy by going through them. No one in my house is allowed to buy anything without a coupon or a great sale (and preferably both hehe) unless its absolutely necessary. Its really kind of a joke with my roommate and BF, but all us chicks here know paying retail is ridiculous with a head full of coupon knowledge.

I always have a problem with forgetting a key ingredient for something I am wanting to make that night (whatever it is) When I think about a recipe I always manage to leave something important off my shopping list, and have to send the BF out to grab it while I’m cooking once I realize what’s missing. Good thing I live 3 minutes from Meijer and Kroger
I forget eggs. And Ketchup!

The most common item on my list I’ve been forgetting for at least three weeks is bagged ice! I have subscribed to Common Sense with Money’s e-mails, RSS feed, followed you on Twitter and have become a Facebook fan. Way to advertise and get your page noticed! Congrats!!!
I can never remember to get stamps because you have to ask the clerk and hey I’ve already filled my cart and put everything on the conveyor belt so my work is done right. Now I just straighten out my coupons and bribe the toddlers to make it a few more minutes. Stamps are the last thing on my mind.
I always seem to forget the laundry detergent. Maybe, subconsciously, it’s because I don’t want to fold another load of laundry! =)
