If you haven’t had that moment of panic after a grocery shopping trip gone awry, the rest of us worship you. Those of us who, at 6:17 p.m. on a Thursday night, bleary-eyed from a day of work, wander zombie-like around the grocery store throwing things like mangos and imported German mustard into our carts even though we wanted to make pasta that night. Or those of us who brave the 4 p.m. Sunday afternoon crowd at Trader Joe’s, elbows thrown over the last of the seasonal Jo Jo’s, strollers ramming up against our ankles, waiting patiently to get to the front of the line only to realize we forgot milk, which was the reason we came to the store in the first place.
Sure, grocery shopping can be a therapeutic, enjoyable activity when it’s done on our time, in our way, but everyone’s gotta eat. And often times, that “gotta eat” means you “gotta shop,” versus “get to shop.”
Want to get better at grocery shopping? Shawna Haner, Instacart‘s new markets associate is showing us the ropes. She spent time as a personal shopper with Instacart and knows her way around a grocery store. In case you’re not familiar with Instacart, it’s basically a service that lets you shop from local grocery stores online, and then a personal shopper picks up and delivers your order to you the same day. Basically, she’s a total pro at this stuff.
