one or two huge shopping trips. I try to limit my time in the store to under one half hour. It is almost impossible unless I have a VERY limited number of items to get. And then the store starts putting items I have always bought in different aisles! I searched and searched for 7-Up for my husband in the soft drinks aisle and finally had to find a store employee to find it....it was in the "holiday" aisle! How was I going to know that?

My husband is too disabled from spinal surgery to do any shopping at all. I could have groceries delivered but that's an extra fee and money is tight these days. So I try to space it out so I don't get to the point of having my back give out when I finally arrive home...
