    Default Grocery Day is a very dangerous day

    We just finished grocery shopping. Not so much me as much as my dad. We're stocked up for at least two weeks now with canned food and pizzas and some other stuff that involves actual cooking that I'm not allowed to touch. How often do you go grocery shopping and what do you buy?

    Once a week, and the food is always all gone by the next day.

    I get groceries about once a week. My parents get groceries about once a week. I usually go on tuesday nights. My parents usually go on tuesday or wednesday mornings.

    Do you see a connection? yes.

    anyways, I only have to buy for myself whatever I want to eat in my dorm room, so it's usually microwave soups, carrots, apples, yogurt, chips, and anything besides water I want to drink.

    *pats Smitten on the head* Isn't that sweet dears?

    I go grocery shopping whenever I need something, I've very rarely thought ahead of what I need and brought in advance normally because my sister likes to "borrow" my food and not put it back. Therefore I get only what I need/can eat in the next two days at a time out of habit that'll change however when I move out. I currently buy snacky stuff that I can prepare in a few minutes when I'm at home. When I'm over the girlfriends I tend to buy proper meal stuff like the ingredients for pasta dishes/spicy chilli ect ect and prepare full meals.

    My mom goes once a week

    I always eat all of the good stuff in five days. Cookies in one and a half. She doesn't by cookies anymore.

    I do my shopping once a week. I buy stuff to last me the next week (I have to buy my own food because my mother is a mean old witch) except I usually get something that lasts less than a day. Recently that's been pringles and oreos.

    Hmm, once or twice a week, depending on the money situation...

    I live less than a quarter of a mile from the nearest supermarket, but now I'm moving, it's going to be more difficult. Hrmm...

    I buy several hundred dollars worth of groceries for myself and one other person every two weeks.
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    Does ordering Chinese count as grocery shopping?

    EDIT: I don't mean Chinese food. I'm blackmailing PG to procure groceries.
