8. I rarely have a list.

I do have a list if I have run out of something that is not a product I buy often, like if I run out of a spice or condiment that is not a thing I get on a regular basis. But I am so predictable, I get the same things at every trip. I always shop at the store with the most specials that week that I need, and only buy the deals, and for the staples, I shop at Aldi's once a month.
