Normally you are spot on in things.
You missed the boat here.
First of all Time is Money only works if the time you are spending on shopping is time NOT being spent earning money. Otherwise the time spent using coupons and shopping wisely is money in your pocket. Coupons...if used wisely are the equivalent of cash... the same as if you found a fiver on the ground and picked it up.
Second.....shopping lists are useful. They allow you to get what you need without forgetting something. Unless you live right around the corner from the store the time and money spent going back to get something you forgot is not insignificant.
Shopping does not have to take a lot of time...especially if you do it at the right time of day.
