I usually go to Trader Joe's or the local co-op - it's small, but they have a pretty good selection of organic/natural foods. I wish there was a Whole Foods around me, but the closest one is over :30 away

I usually go to Von's and Trader Joe's. Costco maybe once or twice a month for bulk items. If I want good meats and desserts, I will go to Bristol Farms or Whole Foods. I think I spend too much time grocery shopping but I like certain things from certain places.

We don't have a whole foods anywhere near at all, and I wish we did! We shop at a store called Meijer which I know is only in a handful of states.

Almost exclusively at Trader Joe's. We have a Whole Foods nearby, but it always costs a fortune coming out of there!

We get a good amount of our groceries from Trader Joe's. We pick up our meat and produce from Whole Foods, a local health food store, or the farmer's market.

Publix. We don't have a trader Joes and whole foods is 45 minutes away.

Publix for most stuff. I think its only in the southern states. And Whole Foods for some stuff, mostly meat. Since DH works there the discount he gets makes the meat almost the same as the regular grocery.

Trader Joe's, Safeway, and Costco. Sometimes Fred Meyer but they're more expensive than other places, and I always walk out of there with clothes for X, or other stuff that we need but that I hadn't planned on buying just yet. I go to Whole Foods whenever we happen to be near one-- their produce and meat is just so much better than elsewhere.

Mostly Wegmans (LOVE!), sometimes Safeway or Shoppers, Costco, Harris Teeter if I have to.

No Frills and it's super depressing, with narrow aisles and way too crowded. I got pushed into the dips fridge by a guy on a mobility scooter once, ha ha.

Trader Joes - it's worth the 25 minute drive! And in July they're opening a Whole Foods right across the street! woohoo!

Trader Joe's, a store called Hannaford (which is maybe only in the Northeast or New England?) and the local co-op. If I go somewhere near a Whole Foods, I will stock up! They have soooo many gluten free options. The closest one is 2 hours away though.

Peapod, online grocery store with home delivery. It's been a lifesaver since going back to work.

We do our big weekly shopping at Stop & Shop and then supplement with Trader Joe's and Whole Foods. There's also a new H-Mart by me (Korean grocery store) that has a great and inexpensive produce section.

@PrincessBaby: Kind of- pretty much everything they sell has their own house label. I'd categorize it as "healthier" than a regular grocery store, but not as much as Whole Foods - in my opinion.

@PrincessBaby: it's considered a specialty grocer. They don't carry everything. They do have Organic meats in packages and they are cheaper than WF.
We shop all over. TJs, Safeway, Costco, Fred Meyer and the Asian grocer. I kind of rotate thru the list since we get different things at each store. I have to stock up since I can't hit each store every week!
