safeway
HEB, sams club, sprouts, trader joe’s, Walmart, in descending order of frequency.
Chinese and Indian grocery stores for some specific items.
Winco, Uwajimaya, Fred Meyer.
Wish I could shop at one place instead of all three, but they all have different things.
It’ll be a cold day in hell when Winco decides to sell loose-leaf genmaicha and Uwajimaya sells freezer burritos.
Mostly MarketBasket or Costco. Occasionally Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, or Hannaford
I get most of my produce, seafood, and various Asian ingredients from a couple of local Vietnamese grocery stores.
I get my American products and general stuff like dish detergent mostly at Safeway (though I’m now switching to QFC because my local Safeway got rid of the shopping baskets and I don’t like to use carts).
I get my Japanese food from a local chain called Uwajimaya.
I get non-seafood meat from any of the above.
I go to a lot of stores…
…almost exclusively from sprouts, supplemented with occasional trips to target or HEB when we need paper products…
Hy-Vee, Aldi, or the Natural Grocer, depending on my grocery budget for the week
75% HEB, 25% Kroger
Grocery Outlet, Costco, Trader Joe’s, and Stater Bros in that order. GO and SB are the only ones in town (except a Safeway, but they have almost the exact same stuff as Staters but 10% more expensive for no reason), Costco and TJ are about an hour away.
WINCO for most shit, fancy local chain for luxuries. One specific Lucky’s, their meat counter has the best deli bacon of the grocery stores locally.
Primarily Aldi but occasionally Kroger for things Aldi doesn’t have or if I’m too late for their hours.
My family is two adults, three cats, and two dogs.
I get dinners from hello fresh. Meats from the local butcher. Produce and dry goods from both stater bros grocery and sprouts grocery. If I make it early enough on the weekends in spring and summer I try to go to the farmers market for produce.
I work in food service too and bring home a lot of samples, so those end up in my pantry when we can’t finish them at work.
ALDI. There are certain things I grab at Dollar Tree and a few things we have to throw on a Walmart or Kroger list since ALDI doesn’t have as big of a selection.
I usually shop at aldi, but if I can’t be awake during Aldi’s store hours sometimes I go to foodlion or Walmart(🥲)
I’m broke as shit and don’t wanna support companies that treat their employees like garbage, but sometimes my sleep disorder makes aldi a non-option, and foodlion is more expensive than aldi or Walmart
Sometimes I go to Hmart, my local asian grocer, or other regular grocery stores if I’m looking for something specific. The instacart app is super helpful for browsing what items different places carry
Mostly Kroger and Costco
