I completely agree with your second suggestion to pay someone else to bag groceries. I used to take my young children with me to the grocery store, which for us is half an hour away. After a good hour at the store stocking up for our family of seven, the kids were at their limit, and so was I! So I started ordering groceries online and doing curbside pickup. So. Much. Easier. I don't even have to take my kids out of the car. We pull up and they load everything into my trunk (for free!). Plus it eliminates impulse buying, so I'm saving money that way. I definitely recommend online ordering. It's been a sanity saver for me.

Especially the idea of secret chores. I don't know exactly why, but going, "this is my secret chore!" makes doing those things that nobody else does or cares about so much more fun.
