I try to do all my shopping in one day. I need to spread it out because I get so tired and rushed that I feel I do not get all the bargains I could get.

I make one main grocery trip a month and then several smaller trips through the month. so i dont know how many i go a week. usually twice i would say. Thursday our new sales for the week start so i am usually hitting the stores then. and i need milk and eggs, bread etc at least once or twice a week.

usually 2x week. the first on Monday for the week, and the usually on Thursday because I forgot stuff :/

I go to about 4-5 different stores per week. I try to do it all on the weekend but it is getting very time consuming.

I will go to CVS 2-3 times, usually 2 times to Giant Eagle, 1 time to Walgreens, unless really really good, and 1 trip to marc's or walmart. No Target close by :(

Hi i'm new here, but i answered your poll. Me i go to the store under the following conditions; 1) i have the money....... 2) it's something i need....... 3) it's something i need in an emergency, like an unplanned event i have to attend. Because of the outragaous gas prices i bunch all my trips together, even then i still sometimes have several hours to kill at the local hardware superstore (LOWES), after all i'm a guy, and i can dream, can't i?? :)

I am so jealouce of you all!! I live 30 min one way from the nearest big town and that only has a walmart, and walgreens basically. I have a very old car, i really need a good one, so I have to borrow my Boyfriends moms car and I go about every two weeks to go grocery shopping and go to walgreens but I plan it on the week that walgreens is haveing a better sale. I love knowing the walgreens sale ads ahead of time because usally two weeks out of the month seem to be better weeks for me, so i go shopping then. We also have a small more expensive store here in town that doubles up to .50 cents so I go there two or three times a week and thats where we get meat and stuff.

Hard to answer this one. Some weeks I go out on Sunday afternoon and hit CVS, Kroger, Kmart or Walmart, BG's (local food mart franchise), sometimes an extra grocery store (IGA) and sometimes a dollar store. Gone 8+ hours, back home done for the week unless I need something quick. Other weeks I go nearly everyday in short trips with perfect lists....then sometimes I just go out and browse with my coupons......It just changes for me depending on what the week looks like. I'm not working right now, so I'm spending more time planning and organizing and walking slower in the stores checking every option....when I'm back to work again, I'll probably be back to my get all done in one shot mode.
