i think i'm quite lucky at the moment because DS is still quite young. i do a weekly supermarket shopping & DS & i go on a tuesday morning. so far he's been quite good - he's only been sitting up in the trolley (instead of the baby thing) for the last couple of weeks so i think it's still a novelty. i do spend most of my shopping trips in a mild panic that he'll have some sort of meltdown before i get through the checkout

ideally, i'd like to do the meat, fruit & vegie shopping elsewhere (like a market or specialty shop) but at the moment i'm being pragmatic & sticking to what i know i can accomplish - trying to get to the supermarket plus a couple of other shops just never seems to happen
