In my house my husband is partially handicapped. He cannot go out. Hence I only buy fruits, vegetables and provisions for the family. Sometimes fruits and vegetables will come on the road or else I should go to shops. In your family, who will do the marketing? Are you good at it?

Hi Buchi,
Mostly I am doing the shopping especially the fruits and vegetables. If my hubby goes for shopping then I have to make the list and I don’t like to do the same. So I prefer to go for shopping. The vegetable market is near to our house and fruits and vegetable is also available there. I prefer to purchase the same while going back to home because I am crossing the market everyday on my way to home.
I am not so good at bargaining.

Some times I shop and most of the times my mother. She is the one who gets all the things and buy all the accesories of home.
I buy very rarely when my mother is not well. very rarely we buy fruits and vegetables. Usually a women comes with the vegetables on her head and sell it door to door. we buy vegetables from her.

I bet my husband would disagree if I said I’m good at marketing. I think I’m very economical and very sensitive with the price. I can always find the better offer at the supermarket. Every time I show off my ability to my husband and he laughed, he said I was cheated by these offers.
We shop a lot of fruits weekly. Now here the banana price is unbelievable cheap. One year ago it was £1 per kilo, now it is £0.46 per kilo. So I bought two kilos and encouraged my husband eating banana.
He doesn’t like banana very much. However I said it’s the time to eat banana. Every morning I put one banana into his bag.

How come it is so cheap all of a sudden? You are a good wife, taking care of your husband's health by forcing him to eat banana daily.
