    I think it's neat to see the different regional grocery stores as I have moved around the eastern US.

    VT -- Pathmark.
    MD -- Safeway.
    NC/VA/TN -- Kroger.
    FL -- Publix.

    I'm about to move to Wisconsin and I'm sure I will get to experience another one.

    I forgot I also lived in Delaware -- no idea where I shopped there! Not the most memorable place...

    Costco for lettuce, Dominion for slider thin buns, apple butter bbq sauce, and my salad dressing, and Sobey's for the air miles.

    Costco for most of our meat except chicken and extra lean ground beef.

    Winco for everything else.

    Walmart for quickie trips (we live literally around the corner).

    Costco, and whatever chain grocery store I happen to be driving by when I need groceries (usually Albertson's, QFC or Safeway). I also belong to a CSA and get fruits and veggies delivered.

    Local grocery store and Trader Joe's.

    Our local Walmart lost electricity and didn't bother throwing their meat away. Would not shop there. :sick:

    I make the short half hour drive to a local meat processor for 99% of my meat. The quality and price definitely makes it worth it. Kroger and Sam's Club for everything else.

    I like to get my meat from the butchers. I should go to the local markets for fruit & veg but it's too much hassle with 2 little kids so I just buy the crap that the supermarket has.

    Wegmans. LOVE their stuff! Produce is excellent, meats are top notch, too. And yummy desserts and pastries. I like their prepared foods as well. There are only 2 things they don't have that I have to go to the Shop Rite for....the b/f's Haagen Dazs white chocolate truffle ice cream and the cottage cheese brand I like.

    That all looks amazing!! :-)

    My fiance and I buy about 60% of our groceries from Aldi (most of our produce, many staples/baking items, cheese, dairy, nuts, lots of frozen seafood). We don't eat beef, chicken or poultry so that is N/A.

    15% comes from Food 4 Less, partly because it's within easy walking distance of our home. Things we buy there include a certain type of bread, some produce, tortillas, etc. This is where we often pop in for 2-3 items midweek.

    15% is from a locally owned ethnic/natural food store that sells primarily Asian products. We only shop there once a month but we buy rice, tofu, a few specialty produce items, sauces, oils & coconut-based products here. It can be pricey, but still WAY cheaper than the fancy health food stores or the farmer's market (in our area farmer's market = $7 tomato).

    The remaining 10% is from Target. Our store has a decent grocery section but is not a Super Target. We regularly purchase noosa and other Greek yogurt and all of our fav Morningstar Farms products here because it's way cheaper than anywhere else in town. My fiance buys Kashi stuff here, and we also get Clif Z bars and Clif Crunch at Target.

    Farmers markets on the weekends for fruits and veg mostly, but for the weekly grind there is a Shaw's right around the corner from me and a trader joe's a few stops up on the subway. Adjusting to life in the city is interesting.
