    I do a big shopping every 2 weeks and just pick up milk and produce in between times.

    I usually need something -- produce, bread, meat for the grill -- on the weekend. And I go once a week during the week.

    I also go about once/month to Sam's Club. And once a month I order from the SHARE co-op (www.sharecolorado.com for more info).

    I try to go only once a week. I plan our dinner menu weekly, too. I've tried to do it monthly, but I just get too overwhelmed!

    I usually hit two grocery stores each week for loss leaders. I would love to do it in one day, but I just can't seem to get it done between naps and feedings (2 kids under age 2!)

    I go once a week-usually. Sometimes, I have to go one more time for things I forgot, or we ran out of.

    Once a week, but if we forget something we'll pick it up at the weekend!

    About 2 times a week...just because I can't fit Paige and the groceries in the buggy at the same time.

    I do a big one every two weeks (on payday) and just pop in to the local store for various things if we need them.
