My roomate is a once in a month shopper..He might pick up one or two things during the month if he runs out of something, but he tends to make his meals from his monthly shopping. I go shopping more like two or three times a week. Probably closer to 3 because I am always needing something it seems..What about you? How often do you shop?

On a daily basis. I stop by the bakery, supermarket, greengrocer or the corner store. I could buy matches one day, drinking water, on another and bread on a given day; fruit, even a single piece, every three or four days.

I shop once a week and I'm pretty firm on that. I rarely and I do mean very rarely pick up something during the week if we are out of it and need it. Pretty much we make do until the next time I go to the store.

I like to go at least once a week, it's cheaper that way, at least in my opinion.

Usually I will go there once a week. It is very close to my home. So I don't have to buy a lot each time.

Wow..he could shop for the whole month? That is unique. For me I normally go grocery shopping once a week,preparing meal for the whole week is what I do..but sometimes I do twice a week depends on some cases.

He is disabled it is just easier he thinks to do it that way, but he has like dozens of bags. I would htink it would be easier to go weekly.

@snowy22315 oh that is why. So maybe he prepared a long list to do that grocery for the month? Yay same here, I find it easier for me to plan meal for a week.

I perhaps do a big shop once a fortnight, but also go to the local shop a couple of times a week.

It depends what I need. I like to have fresh produce so that's why I'll get that a couple times a week it seems. Other stuff can be bought monthly.

A monthly grocery shopping seems to be too long for me. We usually do grocery shopping once a week, or at most twice if we are really running out of stuffs, including buying the meat and vegetables.

My family shops a few times a month, because not everything we need can be bought in one place.

I try not to go grocery shopping more than once a week as I tend to spend more than my budget allows if I go more often.

We are ten minutes from a town so I won't go shopping unless I really can't do without an item. We usually do a largish shop once or perhaps twice a week.

I shopped monthly requirement only in the beginning of the month when he received a salary from where I worked. The rest if there are goods needed, I bought at a small shop near my house.
