I do most of it at one store but if there are good sales elsewhere--I'll go there as well.

no, I shop around, look at the weekly flyers to get the best deals. I like Market Basket, but i get a better deal on meats at Hill Top Steak House, and I prefer to buy produce at a local store, were I know they are fresh, they same for my fish.

Most at one store---live in a very sm. town and limited grocers here~~but I do watch the sales ads and will price match as much as I can. I will head over to the other store when they have their loss leaders & I only buy those then get the heck out of dodge!!

We do it all at one store. The only exception is when hubby needs salad dressing. He can only find the kind he likes at Food Lion, which is not where we normally shop. Once in a while he'll make a special trip there and buy SEVERAL bottles of it, so he only has to go every so often and not every time we shop.

I shop at Stop and Shop. It is the closest one to me. I see deals at other stores, but I would use the money I save in gas so it isn't worth me driving there. Stop and Shop has been pretty good but I have found lately they aren't keeping up to their standards as they have in the past.

Katie,Hi! Mostly at one store,but when we run out of something during the week it usually is at a different store because it is closer.

I usually make 2 or 3 stops when grocery shopping.
First is the Walmart for most thing, then the Jewel for the stuff that Walmart doesn't carry, then the butcher is I need meat.

We used to do only one store, but then they stopped carrying some of what we wanted. Now we usually end up going to a couple of stores.

We have two grocery stores, this is it.
Also in the next town over. So we will either pick one or the other. Very rarely will we stop at both of them.
BTW my man has been stopping off on his way home from work. Why waste the gas to come home and get me just to go back..... When he passes the two up to get home?
Anyways the deals are not seen here like in some places. The town needs to get all they can from those vacationers or those passing through, and us who live here of course lol!
Thank goodness for hunting season, those hunters come with a wallet full of $$$$

We do the bulk of our shopping at the commissary on base. We go to other stores if they have good sales and we were already planning on being in that town anyway. We also generally buy produce at other stores since it lasts longer, although if we aren't planning on going to Minot, we'll buy the produce on base as long as it looks good.

I mostly go to one store, but I use ads to decide if I should go to fry's or safeway. Also, sometimes go to Sunflower Market when we need produce, as thay have the best stuff and usually also best prices.

I mostly shop at Kroger. I can get the most for my money there, as well as discounts on gasoline, so unless there is an exceptional deal elsewhere, we don't bother.

Most of the food is purchased at Wal-mart or local grocer, depending on sales. Paper products, dog food, drinks, personal hygiene products, and the like are purchased always at the Dollar general.
