    Default Americans and Canadians, where do you do your grocery shopping?

    The polls may not include all grocery store options and may be a little east coast centric, but I will try to keep it big chain related.

    For me, I mostly get my groceries from Wegmans, Costco, Aldi, and Safeway. Occasionally I will go to Food Lion, Shoppers, David's Natural Market, and Grauls though.

    None of those. I get groceries from Walmart Neighborhood market, Breaux Mart and Sam's club. Sometimes I order hard to get items online. I like to get groceries also from Rouses, but I have to drive further than the others.

    I can't believe I forgot to add Sams Club. That's another one like Costco.

    Safeway and local stores, I go out to eat a lot because the only halal meat market near me is kind of gross and there are a lot of great restaurants. I generally buy kosher products at the grocery store because it is just halal but stricter.

    I go to a Pakistani super market sometimes. They have good halal meat there.

    Im sure that would be an option if I lived closer to where I go to school, as it has a South Asian population. SF proper really doesnt. Probably more Indonesians and Muslim Filipinos in SF than anything else. The asian Muslims dont really like to mix with anyone else either, so my options are basically Persians or some gross Turks.
    Even so much kosher food and In N Out (owners are devout Christians, food has bible verses on the wrappers, never frozen and no preservatives, etc) that I might as well be a Jew by this point.

    I go to Sam's club to buy in bulk. I have a deep freezer and I load it up with bulk items. I do my regular shopping at Walmart Neighborhood Market, which is a Walmart grocery store only, no non-grocery items like a regular Walmart. I also go to a Louisiana local grocery chain called Breaux Mart. I like the other Louisiana grocery chain called Rouses, but it's a further drive, so I usually just go to what is near me.

    There is a Costco in the city near me, but Ive been going to Sam's for so long, I just never bothered to switch to Costco. They are about the same to me. Actually I go to Sam's quite often because when you buy in bulk you get better deals.

    Pakistani market? Wow, where do you live? I don't even think they exist where I live.
