Whole Foods ... way better selection than the typical chain grocer ... and far better quality.

Shop Rite. Always fresh and always for less. Sometimes Path-Mark or A&P or Trader Joes.

I get lots of produce from the Journal Square Farmers Market and a large fruit/veggie stand on the corner. I like to pick up locally-grown produce because it's fresher, tastier, and more "sustainable."

Whole Foods is farther away from my apartment and doesn't fit well into my grocery budget. Most of the chains on the list I've never heard of.

I do most of my grocery shopping at WalMart, because there are so many other things I get there, and I hate shopping around. I do get some of my groceries at Country Mart also. They have items that I like that are lower priced than the same type of item at WalMart, besides, I get my prescriptions at their pharmacy.
