If the answer is not "all of them", then you're doing it all wrong.

    I was really going to say "ALL of them." when I saw the thread title.

    I carry all of them. Sometimes it feels like I'm going to dislocate a shoulder!

    HA - having just went grocery shopping last night, I cracked up over the thread title! I usually carry in the light bag and hubby has to be the pack mule :)

    That's why you bag up then go REALLY fast (for me up two flights of stairs) so nothing actually hits the ground as you juggle it falling.

    Haha. This is funny. yeah, I try to carry all of them. My hubby shakes his head at me and laughs. My son was so inspired by my craziness that he even designed a backpack with hooks on it for a science project that you could attach all your groceries too. LOL.

    Definitely more than that guy. Are you telling me I have a future as an Olympic grocery lifter?

    Usually all of them and a 12 pack. I'm an overachiever.

    If I don't have indented red lines in the crook of my arm for at least an hour afterward, I've slacked.

    Same here. But in all seriousness, I try to get them all into the house in one trip.

    My wife is responsible for opening the front door so that I can get to the kitchen without interruption

    Wuss. I get the door of the car, the house and the stairs, all while tripping over the dog, on my own.

    The beauty of having children is making them carry the groceries. They're 5 and 7, so we're working on them carrying 2 bags each.

    10/10 for also carrying a human being and an unweildly diaper bag. That one is the hardest - I'd do the single grocery run, then come back for the kid. Especially when there was two.

    Pff, my older sister gets so mad at us whenever we ask her kids to bring down some of the bags. It's part of the reason I don't offer to watch them more.

    I'll take em all down at once, but it's never a whole lot. I only shop for myself and stick everything except for raw meat and ice cream into reusuable totes, like these:

    It's less of a mess than plastic bags.
