I’m guilty of this habit but it’s a habit I’m proud of because it helps me organize my time and my life for that matter. I’m not good in remembering things so I always make it a point to put things in list before I go out and buy them. I do the same for tasks that I want to accomplish during a given day.
I rarely make shopping lists. The fact remains that they are an essential component of budgeting. However they are not foolproof and one might end up listing less important items apart from the fact that its not easy to follow them when someone finds bargains of products not on the list on offer in stores. This gets more confusing when you bump into sales.
