    I'm a vegetarian, so good fruits and veggies are a must have for me, as well as bulk items (which are cheap!) like beans and legumes.

    I normally shop at Sprouts...but if it were closer, I would shop at Whole Foods for everything. I love that store so much. xD It has everything I could ever want, the only downside is that it's so expensive. :( But..so worth it. Then again, Sprout's has a bigger selection of fruits and veggies, but Whole Foods has more organic produce. Meh.

    Winco for most stuff, their prices are amazing. Albertson's or the health food Co-op for pretty much everything else. Occasionally Walmart, but not often because they aren't in my normal driving pattern.

    My hubby and I usually go to Market Basket or Hannafords. I find that Hannafords has a wider selection of produce and fresh stuff. We are vegan so even though we are trying not to eat really processed, we enjoy tofurkey etc from time to time.

    BJ's
    Stop&Shop(only if they have great deals, they are way too inconvenient otherwise)

    Food Lion because it is literally the only grocery store in my town...and I also buy from farmers' produce stations on the sides of roads, although we don't have a "farmer's market..."

    I do 99% of my grocery shopping at Wal-Mart

    I can bring all the ads from the weekly sales, and get everything I need in one place at the lowest prices around town in one place.

    Add that to my couponing, and its huge savings......

    Once in a blue moon I will go somewhere else to pick up an item or two that they do not sell at Wal-Mart, but then I still go there to get everything else that I can.....

    Where do you purchase your raw materials and why?

    Wegman's. I like the variety of fresh foods, organic foods. And their cooked foods are tasty and convenient. They aren't a cheap store but the b/f pays the food bill and he prefers to pay more for better quality. But if I need something in a pinch, I will just run to the Shop Rite across the street...especially since they sell the brand of cottage cheese I prefer and Wegman's doesn't.

    Sometimes we will go down to the Amish market and get some produce and meats there, too.

    I shop in a number of different places.

    For hormone free, free range meat products I go to my local butcher store. They carry meats that are raised locally.
    For my Fresh fruits and vegis I go to a seasonal fruit stand this time of year and an organic fruit and vegi store that is here year around.
    For dried goods i order through a co-op to get local and organic foods. Dried beans, rice, dried fruit , nuts and some snack crackers that I like through them.
    All other foods I go to where they have what I want. Safeway for fruits and vegis that I can't find at the above mentioned. Fred Meyers (NW chain) for Bread that doesn't contain soy (it is the only place in my town that I can find it) and a few other things from their health food dept.
    Walmart carries the local dairy products made in our town and state (Tillamock cheese) and a few other items.
    Bi-mart (another NW chain) has good prices on canned goods.
    Whole food for my soy free chocolate and fresh fish.
    Costco for nut, fruits & vegis we don't find elsewhere.

    Grocery shopping day is a very big chore, there is no one grocery store with all or most of me and my family's needs. I have sever soy allergies, so I have to make sure that the items I am buying are not processed in a plant where soy is processed. It makes food shopping tedious.

    Safeway - it is close to my house, it has most everything I want, and it has everything where I can find it.
