There is only one trip, there will only ever be one trip. A second trip is the sign of weak fingers and poor constitution.

my grandma would call that a lazy mans load. both ways. take to little an your to lazy to lift more. take to much and your to lazy to make multiple trips.

[-] BakerBagel@midwest.social 3 points 7 months ago

I live in an upstairs apartment and my garage is disconnected from the house. I'm absolutely not making multiple trips if o dont have to

[-] Katana314@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Two trips doesn’t quite work out when you walked to the grocery store to begin with, unfortunately.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 months ago

it continues to baffle me that it's just completely normal for some people to do gargantuan shopping runs like this, i never buy more than can fit in my packpack and an extra bag..

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

You wouldn't do that if you lived an hour from the grocery store.

[-] ByGourou@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago

I have to walk 1 hour to get there, so I'm optimizing.

[-] hswolf@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

it's a cultural thing, countries that had volatile economie and grocerie pricing at some point made people buy all their necessities in bulk, since prices would literally change multiple time in the day, crazy isn't it

[-] Emerald@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

It's also because many Americans can't just walk/bike to the store. So it's to minimize car trips, which is a good thing.

This is why we have the wheelbarrow.

When I lived in an apartment complex where we had to park very far away, I did see a lot of tenants using small carts to carry all their groceries in at once! Seemed very smart to me!

Laughs in kitchen right next to attached garage

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 7 months ago

laughs in just passing by the store on the way home from work every day

[-] rmuk@feddit.uk 2 points 7 months ago

Laughs in living down a well at the end of the checkout conveyor.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world -1 points 7 months ago

That's a lot more expensive than buying in bulk.

[-] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 4 points 7 months ago

It depends on how much you use. If you find that you're able to use everything you buy in bulk then more power to you. I tried for the longest time but found myself throwing out way more food than I felt good about.

Nowadays I only buy staples in bulk, and smaller more frequent purchases of everything else, with an intentional meal plan.

I've flown to close to the sun before. I've got time.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

You will become humble if you shop at Costco. 5 or 6 trips to get everything inside.
