This. This is what I was trying to say. And one advantage of some grocery stores is that they have a coffee bar or snack area where you can sit and talk. If your chatting in the yogurt aisle is going well, you can ask the lady (or gent) if they'd like to join you for coffee or tea. This actually works, occasionally.

Another reason to continue avoiding WM. A grocery store chain based in Seattle back in the 90's kind of re-invented itself, and started leasing out space to concessions. Their most brilliant move was to rent to Cinnabon, which advertised its presence by piping the oven fumes from their cinnamon rolls out into the parking lot. Not only did their business boom, the grocery chain's clientele grew by leaps and bounds, too! That's what you want to look for; a place that has a cinammon-roll concession, or bagels, or Haagen Dasz ice cream, or something irresistable, like that.
Ask women if you can help them since they can't reach the top shelf.
guys can go the other way also. since most of us tend to be a bit lost in a supermarket, we can use that to our advantage, and get the woman to actually help us shop. they can help us find bargains, tell which produce is fresh, etc. and while you are getting that woman to teach you how to shop in a supermarket, you can make conversation with her and get her to open up to you. and hopefully by the time the both of you hit the cashiers stand, you have gotten her digits, or given yours to her, and perhaps even made a lunch date for somewhere.
guys, we can meet women anywhere, you just have to be willing to step up and talk to them.

I've been posting this for a couple of years, now. Guys: in order to meet women, you have to actually talk to them. Amazing how long it takes for that to sink in.

Back when I was single I used to meet women all the time at Trader Joe's. I was primarily riding a motorcycle at the time, so I would go in with a backpack and carrying my helmet. I was limited in how much I could buy so I was there quite a bit, and after a while people started to recognize me. I was quite stupid at the time, so I wasn't wearing gear, just flip flops and shorts. I was probably approached a half dozen times by young women who wanted to tell me I was an idiot for riding a sportbike without pants and boots, but they still wanted my number.

Some people are clueless. My first girlfriend was a clerk in the butcher shop. She was cute and friendly, so I would volunteer to go to the butcher shop every week. Eventually it turned into a gf, for a couple of months. It can be just a random, bump into kind of thing. But it could be a clerk, or someone who's eating in the food court and you just strike up a casual conversation. It doesn't mean you just run in and out of the store, hang around, mingle, brouse, etc.
