Yesterday was errand day for me. I had stuff to buy at the grocery plus I wanted to check out some store sales as well since I will also be in the mall area. I pretty much had a long to-do list, but I didn't want to bring my planner with me so I resorted to chunking them in my memory.
I divided them into 3 chunks: 1)Safeway, 2) Wallgreens, and 3)SF Shopping Mall. This was very easy to remember. Each chunk though is divided into several to-do/to-buy lists. Until now I even remember them.
Safeway: juice, body wash, gift cards, cookies
Wallgreens: check out coupons and buy the $1 container
SF Shopping Mall: visit Old Navy, Club Monaco and buy Panda Express gift card
If I consolidate the above lists into one list, I will definitely forget an item or two. But since I chunked them into separate store locations, I was able to remember them easily without having to write them down on paper.
