Sure -- I shop at Trader Joe's, farm markets, a bakery, a butcher shop, and a dairy along with a couple of mainstream grocery stores. I don't go to those specialty places every week, but go at least once a month.

where i live now, i have a lot of grocery stores within a few miles of me. i do most of my shopping in costco. i go to shop rite for most stuff in between (best prices and selection). ill go to a&p sometimes because it is the most convenient (which doesnt make it a ton more convenient than any other place but its also pretty nice in there).

Yep, I typically go to Jewel, Meijer, Trader Joe's and Target. I sometimes also go to Dominicks and a local bakery. I used to go to Aldi but haven't been in a while. In the summertime, I also visit farmers' markets.

Me, too....not every store has the stuff ( or brands) of everything I need...I get papertowels and personal items at wal-mart....meats and misc. at Giant, canned goods and produce (most of it!) at Bottom Dollar (our store has GREAT produce!) and wine at Wegmans.....they've got cheaper wine (my brand, anyway!) than Total Wine! I'm all over the place with shopping!
But then, I'm in a store almost everyday....but that suits me. I really hate huge shopping trips, as I detest putting things away! One bag at a time isn't too bad!!!

I go to Dominicks for most of my groceries but hit Trader Joes, Whole Foods and Costco for certain items as needed. I used to be more of a fan of Jewel but recently Dominicks has really been beating them on price. If I'm near a Meijer I always stop in but I'm not able to go regularly anymore. I also pick up things in Target that are cheaper than anywhere else if I'm already there.

I shop at Super Target, ALDI, Sweetbay, Publix and farmer's market. I enjoy rotating my shopping. I buy most from Super Target, their grocery is AWESOME! I recently started buying cheap staples from ALDI, and fill in as necessary from Sweetbay and Publix. Each store offers something different that I can't find at the others or is a better deal than the others. I buy most fresh fruits and veggies from my farmstand down the road

I wish our SuperTarget was more conveniently located. My Target does have a small grocery area, but the store with the full-blown grocery (meats, full produce section) is over in an area with wretched traffic. I loathe going there. Whole Foods is also not in an area where I typically shop. I probably would if it were near my other stores.
