YMMV. This isn't one trip, it is just the decision flow when thinking about getting ingredients. I consider biking to the strip (zero fuel) recreation, but this is also an optional step for specialty ingredients and to support local stores. I can walk to Aldi (also zero fuel), and I don't go to Costco and/or Giant Eagle every week. They're also both in the same place so if I'm driving to Waterfront I may as well stop at both.

The dream, to me, is a romanticized Parisian model where every man, woman, and child may live within walking distance of a boulangerie, fromagerie, et boucherie. But of course I know that's just not how we live in America. I make do with the strip district and farmers markets and then fill in the cracks with the chain stores.

I like to shop in person at the strip. Then I do an instacart from Aldi, then if there is anything left I make the .5 mile trip to Kuhns. Depending on location Kuhns could be replaced with another capable store. The prices in the strip are usually great and I really just enjoy walking around down there. I also tend to get my "opportunity buys" there, basically anything that is a good deal or anything hard to get from other places. The nice thing about the instacart order is you get the Aldi prices but it saves me 2 hours of riding around. I can cook dinner and pretty soon my groceries arrive.
