This is kinda a random post but I get asked about it all. the. time! So I thought I would go ahead and share! First off, I wanna go ahead and give a little shout out to my fav grocery store in all the world Club Pub AKA Publix. I am so sorry for those who follow and don’t have access to this amazing mecca that is so costumer driven but just trust me when I say it, it’s amaze!
When writing this post, I am writing with my (yes it’s mine) Southgate Publix in mind. Yes, I am one of those peeps that writes their list based on her route around the store! It’s the most logical and reasonable way to go about it!!! Duh!
Ok so before I even walk in the store, I always have my list! I have an ongoing list going in my phone and I am constantly adding to it as I run out of stuff, it takes one second for me to pull up the list and write it down. I don’t want to go to the store 100 times a week (as much as I love it) and want to make my one time super worth it! I then always go though my fridge and pantry right before so I know what I have and don’t double-buy or forget something.
You guys know I meal prep (a whole post coming on this soon!) so I preplan those meals ahead of time so I know what to buy and then I always have my staples, the things I cant live without, that I always buy because it makes sense! This includes a bunch of greens, fruit, veggies, lean proteins, healthy snacks, chocolate, coffee and creamer! Ok let’s go into detail though! You should be able to click on each of the pink items so you can see what it looks like and find it in your store! I also get a lot of questions about the sugar, butter, creamer ect. I use so that will all be on here too!

Side note: These are a lot of the staples I buy about every other week and then meal prep with meals on top of that. I will share some meal prepping tips and ideas in the future as well! I know you guys had a lot of questions about the brands I eat so I hope this is helpful!!
Share with me your Club Pub Faves!
