~Speaking of Publix... I am by no means "green", but I have been using the bags that they sell at Publix for my groceries (I guess every bit helps.) I love them! It makes unloading the car a breeze! They hold so much stuff and are very sturdy.
~Shaker Cheese- at least that is what we call it (thanks to my Aunt Sharon Gordon). If there is any food that Will is not sure about eating, we put a little Shaker Cheese on it and it is gone!
~My "As Seen On TV" Swivel Sweeper- It is great on hardwood floors, especially with two dogs and two kids who tend to make lots of messes. I just grab my Swivel Sweeper and clean it right up!
~Clorox wipes: I use them all over the house- kitchen, bathroom, highchair, toys, even in the car! Since we are raising our kids in a germ-a-phobic world, we might as well disinfect at home!
~NutriGrain Bars- We could eat these every morning- in fact when Will was in daycare, he did! Thad and Will prefer the blueberry, I am more fond of the apple. Whatever floats your boat!
~Costco- We are Costco junkies. We really try to go only once a month, but sometimes it is more often. We buy all of our meat there and freeze it in portions that are right for our family. We are also big advocates of Costco diapers and wipes... much cheaper and work just as well! When you drop a couple of hundred dollars at a time it makes you feel like you are not saving, but in the long run it really does save.
~Any brand 2-in-1 Shampoo- who has time to wash and condition?!?!
~Oxy Clean Stain booster- I add a scoop or two to every load of the kids clothes. If I missed any stains, it seems to get them (aside from the green crayon in the dryer debacle!)
~Target- I mean do I have to explain? I have withdrawals when I don't go for a week or two! I don't even have to buy anything... I just wander. I love to wander the isles of Target. Who doesn't?
Let me know what you can't live without! I might have to try it!

I was thinking of doing this on mine -- thanks for the push! I'll have to get busy this week! We keep the strawberry nutri grain bars in stock here...
Everything you talked about is exactly what we do.....Just last month I posted on my blog "Top Ten Reasons Why I Love Publix". We love Costco....you have to try their olive topinade. It's to die for! And Target....well, lets just say a weekly trip is always needed. Emily loves it too....Every morning Emily asks me if we are going shopping today. I think I am creating a monster.
PS - clorox wipes are the best invention!
You know what I use for my groceries? My beach bag.. it sounds crazy but I can hold like 100 bucks of groceries in it and it's waterproof in case anything leaks. I'm like you.. I'm not green, I just use it so I dont' have to make 900 trips back and forth to the car.
I can't live w/out dixie cups..I eat cereal in them so I don't have to wash dishes.. drinks, ice cream, you name it.
We have Costco here and I really have to have self-control! Especially b/c it has more of the American things that we like. And my kids are cereal bar junkies, too. AND, we love Clorox wipes. My kids like to take them and clean the house. When I'm in need of a mopping (since we have all tile floors in the house), I tell the kids to get some wipes and clean the floors for me. They think it is fun and they love it :-).
one other "PUBLIX" brand food that is not so good it the lasagna....stick with the Stoffers.
just last weekend, when my Mom and Dad were keeping Lauren, they ran out of wipes. My mom asked Lauren "We're out of wipes, what do we do?" and she said "We need to go to Target!"
