For me it's more what's within walking distance since I live on the edge of downtown...
Trader Joe's is 3 blocks away.
Safeway is across the street from TJ's but I never shop at Safeway
QFC (part of Kroeger) is about a mile away
Metropolitan Market (a terrific local chain) is about a half mile away but down a ridiculously steep hill
Whole Foods is about two miles away

More than I can count. Just about every exit up and down the freeway has a shopping center with a grocery store in it.

I have a Winn Dixie, Publix and Sam's within 2 miles of my house.
I also have an Aldi and Walmart about 4 miles out.
There's a Piggly Wiggly in town, but I never go to it.

2, Daves a local chain and Stop and Shop. Stop and Shop has the market wrapped up in my state. There are a couple of Shaws and Whole Foods, but they are not conviently located. My Mom lives over the line in Massachusetts and she has a bunch of other choices for grocery shopping. I'm so jealous sometimes.

Only 3 and 2 I won't shop at. We have a nice, small Walmart Supercenter and 2 other stores that have been here longer and are pretty sleazy. There was a 4th store that moved in a couple of years ago but it didn't last but about 6 months. At the last it was charging for the shopping carts and that pretty much sealed its fate.

1 - a Piggly Wiggly. There is a Pierce's about 20 minutes away. After that, it's around 40-45 minutes to the next nearest grocery store.
Yes, we live in the sticks.

Nope, never heard of Fiesta Foods. There used to be an IGA or was it a Thriftway? but it closed. Feista foods? |

I doubt I could even count all the ones we have with 15 minutes of our home.
The closest ones are Kroger (we have 4 of them within less than a 10 mile radius), Walmart, Meijer, Target, Aldi, and Remke's. Those are all that I can think of off hand. That isn't including a few Mexican grocery stores, a few meat stores, and 2 Jungle Jim's0(both within 30 miles from us)!

There is absolutely no way I could even count them.
I can tell you with certainty that we have 4 Super Wal Marts, 4 Targets, 2 Costcos, a BJ's and a Sam's all within 15 minutes.
I couldn't even count the regular grocery stores, specialty grocery stores. |

We live in a rural area between towns. There is one grocery store north of us, about 8 minutes away, and the other is south, about 12 minutes. Other than that, it's about 25 mins. to the next biggest town, where there are 4 grocery stores, two of which we shop at about twice a month. In between, we use the local ones, which are more expensive, but a lot closer. We usually only shop the sales at these ones.

Lots.
Giant (multiple)
Safeway (multiple)
Food Lion
Graul's Market
The Fresh Market
Trader Joe's
Whole Foods
Super Target
That's all I can think of, but I know there are many I'm forgetting but I don't shop there-particularly one where my Mom shops.
I do remember going to visit my Grandma in Georgia for the first time when she said, "I'm going down to the Piggly Wiggly". I said, "What?!!" And she had to explain it to me. I thought it was hilarious-a grocery store named the Piggly Wiggly. Of course she let me go with her. They even have a sign with a picture of a pig! How cute is that! Sure beats our stupid Giant! We don't even get a picture of a Giant either-we sure got gypped!

I can walk to the Co-op in 20 minutes and Tesco is about a 15 minute drive away. If you don't count little corner shops, which I don't use, the next supermarket is 40 miles away.
