Guy Fieri
I like Toronto a lot, it’s a good city. The only thing that really annoys me about Toronto is that you’re turning Maple Leaf Gardens into a grocery store, which is absolutely nothing short of disgusting.
Rick Wakeman
I’ve been reading comics since I was four. I used to get them when I would go grocery shopping with my mom. I remember getting the digest versions of old DC comics. The one that I remember reading first was Paul Levitz’ ‘Justice Society of America’ stuff that he was doing in the ’70s.

During the Eighties, when I was hurting for money, I thought, ‘Hang on a minute – I can paint.’ I was living in New York and I thought it would get the grocery money coming in, and it escalated from there.
Ronnie Wood
A couple of weeks after the Olympics, I thought I’d pop down to my local supermarket and do some grocery shopping. One person came up to me in the frozen food aisle, and that was it.

Nicola Adams
I go to the grocery store with my wife. She goes off to buy something. Where is she, anyways? So I ask the manager, ‘What aisle do they keep the wives in?’
Mort Walker

Leslie Moonves
I’ve written in the middle of a conversation or the grocery store or at another band’s concert or in the last moments before falling asleep. It’s pretty unpredictable. I think it’s always flowing, and sometimes I’m not listening. There’s no formula for when I’m going to be able to be a good listener to myself.
Lucy Dacus
My dad was born in Chicago in 1908… his parents came from Russia. They settled in Chicago, where they lived in a little tiny grocery store with eight or nine children – in the backroom all together – and my grandmother got the idea to go into the movie business.

We’ve gotten so good at growing food that we’ve gone, in a few generations, from nearly half of Americans living on farms to 2 percent. We no longer think about how the wonderful things in the grocery store got there, and we’d like to go back to what we think is a more natural way.
Nina Fedoroff
Having the ability to walk to the grocery store, ride my bike miles away to a friend’s house, and spend most of the day unsupervised gave me confidence in myself. But I don’t give my daughter that same freedom, and I never have, because I fear the possible repercussions.
Stephanie Land
As an actor of color, I was overlooked at every possible opportunity. I was given roles that were almost not roles. It was, like, Scared Asian Guy. Whether I was a scared Asian guy in front of a computer or a scared Asian guy getting robbed in the grocery store, I always played these pathetic, low-status characters.
Simu Liu
When I was a kid, I was always drawing things. I’d get butcher paper or grocery bags and draw on them.

Huda Kattan
That white uniform was her ‘pass’ to get into white places with us – the grocery store, the state fair, the movies. Even though this was the 70s and the segregation laws had changed, the ‘rules’ had not.
Kathryn Stockett
If you live in a good neighborhood, you drive home and there’s a bank. There’s grocery stores and big houses – but no motels. What that tells you psychologically is you protect your money and buy good things for your family to eat in your nice big house.
will.i.am

Rachel Nichols
We have food deserts in our cities. We know that the distance you live from a supplier of fresh produce is one of the best predictors of your health. And in the inner city, people don’t have grocery stores. So we have to figure out a way of getting supermarkets and farmers markets into the inner cities.
Michael Pollan
I did all kind of jobs to sustain myself. I worked at a grocery store, in the public health department, and what was then Thomas Cook and Sons. The last job was particularly interesting, but I got fired from it.

What teens share online is dwarfed by what they consume. Pre-Internet, you had to hoof it to the grocery store to find a magazine with celebrity bodies – or at least filch your mother’s copy from the bathroom. Now the pictures are as endless as they are available.
Rachel Simmons
When I was 13, I had my first job with my dad carrying shingles up to the roof. And then I got a job washing dishes at a restaurant. And then I got a job in a grocery store deli. And then I got a job in a factory sweeping Cheerio dust off the ground.
Ashton Kutcher

Brad Leone
When I walk around my neighborhood, the grocery store, or the farmers market, I don’t see Democrats or Republicans, Progressives or Conservatives. I see my brothers and sisters – living, breathing human beings with diverse and complicated stories, views, and desires that can’t be packaged neatly in a box.
Tulsi Gabbard
I’m really trying to respond to the foods that are in the stores and just pulling the things that are the very best and cook what looks beautiful and is seasonal. That’s the way to go. I love going to the grocery store and the market. None of it’s drudgery for me. Washing dishes is the drudgery.
Ted Allen
I should probably confess that ice cream is my favorite food, and I eat it every night. When I go grocery shopping, I try to buy a new flavor, rather than reverting back to a favorite flavor. I’m on a mission to taste every flavor of ice cream out there!
Becca Fitzpatrick
I’m a very reluctant frontman. I’ve seen reviews where they talk about my strong presence on stage, but it’s nothing I do. It’s like the person in a long grocery line who stands out because he’s so agitated. He’ll have presence, too.
Al Jourgensen
There’s a part of me that wants to be known and make a comfortable living but still be able to go grocery shopping. My overall idea of success is having people I want to work with want to work with me.

Michael Rosenbaum
We are, after all, a nation of laws. And we live in a culture where carrying a form of identification is as normal as keeping your car keys in your pocket. When any of us walk into a grocery store and cashes a check, no one skips a beat when asked to present our driver’s license.
Mike Gallagher
Every single laundromat, grocery store, everything is called ‘Lupita’ in Mexico.
Lupita Nyong’o
The next time you hear me attacked as a socialist – like tomorrow – remember this: I don’t believe that government should take over the grocery store down the street or control the means of production. But I believe that the middle class and the working families who produce the wealth of America deserve a fair deal.
Bernie Sanders
I used to carbo load. But then I ran my first marathon, actually on a whim. All I could think of was that I needed protein. I remember going to the grocery store and buying one of those roasted chickens. I remember downing a bunch of that and, yes, I had some carbs, but that’s what I felt I needed.

Parker Posey
Don’t skimp on the ice. Bags from the grocery store melt so fast and water down your drinks. I prefer beautiful, big squares for my cocktails.

Jack Kingston
If people want to find me, they can. They’ll see a middle-aged woman wandering around the grocery store, looking to see what to buy for dinner.
S. E. Hinton

Deb Haaland
I can write for any magazine now, in any voice. I can do it in two hours, I could do it in my sleep, it’s like writing a grocery list.

Mike Barnicle
Snoop Dogg eats terrible. That’s another reason I had to leave him. I would have been dead of a heart attack. He literally eats at 7-11. That’s where he does his grocery shopping or it’s Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles, or it’s Denny’s delivery. There’s not a piece of salad or vegetable within two miles of this dude.
Tyrus
Ideas come from life: what happens in mine, what I see

Ideas come from life: what happens in mine, what I see happening in others’, mixed with a great deal of imagination. I might see a person in a grocery store and build a whole character and life out of what’s in her basket.
Elizabeth Berg
I remember, when we first got married, the only money we had was what was in Chip’s pocket. He always had a wad of cash, but we were broke. If I needed to go grocery shopping, it’s whatever was in his pocket. That’s how we paid the bills.
Joanna Gaines
It is a myth that art has to be sold. It is not like stocking a grocery store where people fill a pushcart. Art is a product that has no apparent need. The salesperson builds the need in the mind of the buyer.
Jack White
I think that if you haven’t been to the grocery store in a really long time, it’s really easy to get very out of touch.
Zooey Deschanel

Enes Kanter
I don’t think there are any footsteps to be walked in. No one else has taken things that you can buy at the grocery store and put them together. I hope that I have a career as long as Julia Child.
Sandra Lee
I remember once seeing a guy in the grocery store who looked so much like my character the Archangel Gabriel, I wanted to go up to him and say, ‘Hey, put that Red Bull down. You’ve already got wings.’ My friend had to sternly remind me that he was a stranger and I did not, in fact, create him.
Alexandra Adornetto
I have to make an effort about things like going to the grocery store. That stuff reminds me that I don’t live in the real world, and you know what? I’m thankful.
Mike Patton
If I get recognized, it’s because someone notices me at the checkout counter at the grocery store. I really live a very normal life and have been able to keep my privacy.
Sarah Drew
If everyone is good at something different, assigning chores is easy. If your partner is great at grocery shopping and you are great at the laundry, you’re set. But this isn’t always – or even usually – the case.
Emily Oster
When you sign on to be an activist in northwest Montana, people in the grocery store will avoid eye contact, particularly if they’re hanging out with outspoken opponents to your views.

Morena Baccarin
When we first moved to Scarborough, there was one Sri Lankan grocery store – now there’s a take-out on every corner, each with some specialty or another. You can get what you want the way you want it, and that’s very different from the way it used to be.
Shyam Selvadurai
I may be only a fish and chip shop lady, but some of these economists need to get their heads out of the textbooks and get a job in the real world. I would not even let one of them handle my grocery shopping.
Pauline Hanson
I like the fact that I’m from the South and that I have this rich history behind me. I come from a family of storytellers. They can’t just tell you how someone went to the store. They have to tell you who they saw, what they were wearing, what they said, what they had in their grocery cart.
Kimberly Willis Holt
There’s a game called Checkout where there’s grocery items and it’s how much you think the manufacturer’s suggested retail price is and we add up your total, then your total has to be within $2 of the regular total. I don’t think I could ever win that game.
Drew Carey
When I have to score a film, I watch the movie first and then start thinking about it. And from that moment on, it is as if I were pregnant. I then have to deliver the child, so from that moment on, I think always about the music – even when I go to the grocery store, I think about it.
Ennio Morricone
I’ve still got my characters in my head, and I can still hear them. When I go to the grocery store, I hear them.
Ntozake Shange
I can spend hours in a grocery store. I get so excited when I see food, I go crazy. I spend hours arranging my baskets so that everything fits in and nothing gets squashed. I’m really anal about it, actually.
Cameron Diaz
I’m the seventh child of George and Leona Douglas, and I don’t ever remember a time when my father didn’t work two jobs. When my mother was going to the grocery, or going to Mass, or trying to take care of seven kids in a run-down farmhouse.
Michael Keaton
I am totally, completely, 100% in love with fashion. I would wear Chanel gowns to the grocery store if I could. I’m a huge fan of Chanel and Versace, and I actually have always dreamed of designing my own line one day.
Ksenia Solo
I have never written anything in one draft, not even a grocery list, although I have heard from friends that this is actually possible.
Connie Willis
Grocery stores can’t afford to pay $80 a square foot. At that rate, we are going out of business.
John Catsimatidis
Coconut oil is a must for everything. It is fresh from the earth, so it naturally works to moisturize my scalp, skin, hair and even helps to remove eye makeup. It also smells delicious. You can buy it at a beauty store or the grocery store.
Jillian Hervey
I love the grocery store. I would never have my groceries delivered.
Wendy Williams
There is a healthy amount of self-doubt and criticism with most people that make music. You find your areas that are your best. Onstage, I am good. But talking to someone in the grocery store? Forget about it.
Anderson East
I kind of remember when I was young, I used to hang out with my dad sometimes. And I can remember just following him in and out of these domestic situations. Going to the grocery store, we’d go pick up my other brother, or we’d go here, go there.
Ryan Coogler
Most of my recognition comes from us winning that championship. The words may not come out – ‘Super Bowl III’ – because a lot of the folks at the grocery store, gas station or mall weren’t even born when we won the Super Bowl. But they’re aware of it. It has had a tremendous impact on my life since then.
Joe Namath
We, the creative class, are finding ways to make a living making music, drawing webcomics, writing articles, coding games, recording podcasts. Most people don’t know our names or faces. We are not on magazine covers at the grocery store. We are not rich, and we are not famous.
Jack Conte
For me, I was really struggling because I was Scott Hall in the gym and Scott Hall in the grocery store and in the ring. Until I got a gimmick, a look, and got to be a character, that’s when I started making strides. As Scott Hall, I didn’t have a gimmick, so I didn’t know what to do.
Scott Hall
There was a time in L.A. when I drove to 7-Eleven to go grocery shopping, and I locked my keys in my car, which wasn’t insured. My wallet was in there, and I couldn’t call AAA, because I only had $7 in my bank account. It was one of those moments where I was like, ‘O.K., I literally have nothing right now.’
Whitney Cummings
Some people meet people in the grocery store, but I get

Some people meet people in the grocery store, but I get my tomatoes and I’m out.
Ryan Seacrest
I definitely try to profile people at the grocery store based on what they’re buying.
Thomas Gibson
Growing up, my parents were healthy eaters and starting to run and compete when I was 13, I knew the need to focus on what you need to eat. I remember going to grocery store myself and picking up fresh fruit and knowing early on the right foods to fuel my body.
Norah O’Donnell
I’m no sexual siren. I see prettier girls than me in the grocery store every day.
Markie Post
I do wait in line, and I do take the subway, and I do my own grocery shopping, and I do take the kids to school. But it almost doesn’t matter to a certain segment of the populace.
Sarah Jessica Parker
Some grocery stores began using electronic scanners as early as 1976, and the devices have been in general use in American supermarkets for a decade.
Andrew Rosenthal
Do people think we eat, like, gold cereal in the morning? We’re really simple, simple, simple people. We grocery shop; we wash our own dishes. We do most of the things that most people do.
Hilaria Baldwin
Arguably, it might prompt consumers to think about their consumption, with paper straws and reusable grocery bags and shared urban bicycles acting as a gateway to more meaningful changes.
Annie Lowrey
My average day is with my wife and kids in Dublin, doing school runs, grocery store, feeding and walking the dogs.
Ronan Keating
When I was a student at Princeton University, I was working part time in a grocery store. I saw an ad for teachers of a prep course. I don’t remember what it paid, but it was easily double or triple the minimum wage.
John Katzman
My father worked in the Post Office. A lot of double shifts. All his friends were in the same situation – truck drivers, taxi cab drivers, grocery clerks. Blue collar guys punching the clock and working long, hard hours. The thought that sustained them was the one at the center of the American dream.
Gary David Goldberg
Wherever I go – be it to school events, county fairs, town halls, or even the grocery store, my neighbors and constituents share the same serious concern. Prescription drug prices keep going up, and families across our district don’t know how they can afford them.
Abigail Spanberger
I just go about my life. I’m a mom, I drive an SUV, I go to the grocery store every day. I’m definitely not a celebrity. I always say that I’m a celebrity-adjacent.
Diablo Cody
I was at the grocery store just buying lemons, and a person turns to me and says, ‘Hey, you’re the kid in the horror movie, right? Can I get a picture?’ It was really random.
Milly Shapiro
It’s what I do best – pry into people’s business and mind their business. I can’t help myself. I can’t even go through the grocery line of the grocery store without talking to people and then giving them my opinion.
Delilah
My goal is to make Italian food clean and accessible and beautiful and tasty, with simple ingredients that people can find at a local grocery store, because people don’t want to go to a gourmet shop in search of items that will sit in their pantry for years after they use just a teaspoon or pinch of them.
Giada De Laurentiis
I didn’t corner the market on great stories. I’m not the only one who can do something like work at a grocery store and then win a Super Bowl. Other people can do it. You hope people will see that and say, ‘Hey, that will be me.’ They’re going to chase after it like I did. And they’re going to be the next one.
Kurt Warner
People aren’t just paying more to fill their gas tanks or when they pay for their heating bills for their home; they are paying more at the grocery store, on air travel and for many other daily expenses.
Dan Lipinski
I was born in Chicago in 1927, the only child of Morris and Mildred Markowitz, who owned a small grocery store. We lived in a nice apartment, always had enough to eat, and I had my own room. I never was aware of the Great Depression.
Harry Markowitz
I have a busy schedule and am constantly traveling so when I do have the time to grocery shop or prepare a meal, I make it a priority.
Pia Wurtzbach
I thought about that the other day after I went to the grocery store and had to sign fifteen autographs before leaving. On one hand, it’s just so flattering. On the other hand, sometimes it would be nice to get the bread and leave, you know?
Clay Aiken
The next MVP of the Super Bowl is just as likely to have been a full-time grocery store bagger last year as a Heisman Trophy winner.
Hunter S. Thompson
I remember being a kid and seeing the ‘National Inquirer’ at the grocery store checkout line. When somebody actually picked up a copy, it was mortifying. You felt dirty for them. But now it’s perfectly acceptable to read something like that. There’s absolutely no taboo surrounding that kind of exploitation.
Rashida Jones
I don’t think a young person ever really quite knows what’s going on when their norm becomes going to the grocery store with sunglasses on at 11 years old. It’s kind of weird, and I’ll say it also went to my head the first little season, because that became normal for me.
Alyson Stoner
I’m somebody who, if I went to the grocery store, and one of them wasn’t with me, I would feel guilty. I would be like, ‘I shouldn’t be doing anything without them, anytime, ever.’ A very codependent way of thinking. Also, motherhood is hugely about guilt.
Pamela Adlon
I don’t remember my mother ever playing with me. And she was a perfectly good mother. But she had to do the laundry and clean the house and do the grocery shopping.
Patricia Heaton
I have lucky boots for military embeds, a lucky scarf for road trips, a lucky handbag, and lucky days of the week. I tap into my gut for ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ feelings about such simple things as whether I should go grocery shopping.
Farnaz Fassihi
What’s important at the grocery store is just as important in engines or medical systems. If the customer isn’t satisfied, if the stuff is getting stale, if the shelf isn’t right, or if the offerings aren’t right, it’s the same thing. You manage it like a small organization. You don’t get hung up on zeros.
Jack Welch
I don’t give a damn if it’s a hustle that’s already big or you go to work at Kroger every day, the grocery store. Or you work at Walmart. You work, so I respect you. You don’t work, what can we do? We can’t relate.
Young Dolph
I buy my produce at the local farmer’s market, which is actually cheaper than shopping at the grocery store.
Anna Getty
A lot of people, when they see my career, they hear or remember, ‘Sat on the bench four years in college, got cut by the Packers, worked in a grocery store, and then won the Super Bowl.’ That’s kind of the timeline the people see when they hear ‘Kurt Warner.’
Kurt Warner
We trust something in a grocery store and assume it's g

We trust something in a grocery store and assume it’s good. We don’t learn about the most precious thing in life-the food we put in our body. Educate yourself!
Paul Prudhomme
Ninety percent of the day is working out. Sometimes I get my nails done and go to the grocery store.
Lindsey Vonn
When I’m in line at the grocery store, I might pick up one of those tabloids. I might not even buy it. I’m just gonna sit there and read the headlines and chuckle at how stupid that stuff is, even though I’m reading it anyway.
Randy Pitchford
I love the produce section at the grocery store.
Kate McKinnon
I don’t take off my nail polish when I go home because I’m too lazy, and they’re fine with it. Maybe the checkout at the grocery store’s not so great with it, but they’re fine with it. The distrust, the phobias, those are learned, those are taught. But the natural grace is to understand and to love.
Jeffrey Tambor
There are times, like after a long day of work, when the thought of an easy drive-through is enticing. But then I remember how crappy I felt when I ate fast food in the past, and it inspires me to head to the grocery store or my local farmer’s market and whip up an easy but healthier option.
Alison Sweeney
It was funny being at high school and also grocery shopping and having a job. Other kids were going home to their parents, who were doing their laundry, and I was like, ‘Wait, what?’ I was super isolated. I was 16, alone in New York, and modelling.
Margaret Qualley
The entire island knows our father, Fred Hemmings, Jr. – kids, adults, surfers, the governor, grocery clerks, gang members who call our house at night and threaten to kill us as soon as they get out of jail. Fred was a world-champion surfer and is now a well-known, controversial politician.
Kaui Hart Hemmings
Red carpet is always fun, but you’re never going to see me on the street or in the grocery store in 6-inch heels. But I am always going to have big, fabulous hair and makeup.
Jessie James Decker
Well, I’m pretty domestic actually. I walk my dog. I go grocery shopping. I hang out with friends. I’m pretty normal, whatever normal is, on my off time.
James Iha
I don’t know that anybody has walked up to me in the street or in a store or in the grocery and said to me, ‘I hope you bomb Assad.’ Certainly plenty have said, ‘No; thumbs down, thumbs down, thumbs down.’
Nancy Pelosi
I love New York. I can walk half a block and I’m at the grocery store. I don’t have to drive anywhere.
Camren Bicondova
If our employees are wearing the Uber sweatshirt to the grocery store, that would make me feel great.
Bozoma Saint John
I know I will never wear sandals now anywhere. I got in a fight in the back of a grocery store when I was really young, like 14 or something. And I remember my feet were so torn up afterwards because I lost my sandals in the middle of the fight. My toenail was missing. It just sucked.
Channing Tatum
I’ll go grocery shopping at the farmer’s market on a Sunday and already know what I’m going to cook for the next two, three or four days.
Tia Mowry
It’s one thing, holding open the door for someone at a grocery store, or the library, or just about anyplace else. But the doughnut shop is a different thing altogether. This is a get-in-and-out-as-fast-as-you-can operation. There’s no room for courtesy or chivalry here.
Linwood Barclay
After many days of grocery store food, sitting down for a deliberate, slow, expensive eating time can be the best.
Phil Elverum
I do all of the grocery shopping in my little family. I buy cheese, of many different kinds, sliced packaged meats and poultry, bagels, immense quantities of eggs, pre-made fried chicken. Milk. Bacon. It is insane how much dairy, deli and bakery stuff I buy.
Ben Stein
The coronavirus pandemic and fears about its spread have brought to a screeching halt years of efforts to get Americans to do one small thing: bring their own bags to the grocery store and stop using plastic ones.
Tatiana Schlossberg
When I first got started, I used to say I just want to stay in the studio, I want to make good music, I want to sing my heart out, and I didn’t think I’d have people following me to a grocery store or following me home or stuff like that.
Dinah Jane
If I’m, like, in a grocery store, I don’t get recognized that much, but it’s like, you know, when someone comes up to me and says, ‘Hey, I’m a big ‘Pushing Daisies’ fan,’ you just feel like, ‘Oh, wow – you’re the one who watched it. So nice to meet you.’
Lee Pace
It’s important to go into the grocery store with a plan and a list. But it’s a skeleton – you need to know how to deviate from it and adapt it to what ingredients are available and fresh.
Antoni Porowski
West Hollywood is predominantly gay, so every man that came into the grocery store was shopping for his boyfriend.
Jeri Ryan
You’ve got bad eating habits if you use a grocery cart in 7-Eleven.
Dennis Miller
When I was 15, I worked as a bag boy in a grocery store. I also needed to walk old ladies to their car and put their bags in the car, and they would give me two dollars. I felt like the richest man in the world.
Adam DeVine
I’ll be, like, grocery shopping or doing something totally mundane, and once a day, you’ll hear a Cyndi Lauper song on the radio. It is astounding what an icon she is, not just in popular music but in popular culture.
Annaleigh Ashford
Whether they run a record company or a grocery store, every boss will tell you you’re in big trouble if you’re borrowing more than you can ever afford to pay back. Delaying the pain for future generations is suicidal. We’ve got to start getting the deficit down right now, not next year.
Simon Cowell
Each time you go to the grocery store with your kids, it is a potential learning opportunity. In order not to overemphasize materialism, focus on other things to do with money. In ‘Beyond the Lemonade Stand,’ I try to emphasize the importance of saving money, and of using it to help other people.
Bill Rancic
I’ve had to stop going to the nearest grocery store that seems to play Shania Twain’s ‘Forever and For Always’ whenever I’m there. It’s hard to shop for frozen entrees through cold-air blasted tears. Feels good on a flushed face though.
David Berman
I love grocery shopping. It’s one of my favorite things. I don’t want to become an ordering-food-online person.
Scott Rogowsky
The playing field is anything but level when you walk into the grocery store. So much government subsidy goes into processed foods. Even when you’re well-meaning as a parent or a shopper for yourself, you can’t help but be pulled toward the highly processed food.
Michael Moss
I get calls, emails and get asked in the grocery store

I get calls, emails and get asked in the grocery store when I’m not looking that great… ‘I love your hair. Where do you get it done?’
Shannon Bream
I’m a good whistler. As I was growing up, we had a family whistle, so if we were spread out somewhere, like in a grocery store, and heard the call, everyone came.
Stana Katic
Whether you write down your to-do lists in a notebook or use a tool like Evernote, to-do lists can be a real life-saver, since it reduces the stress of trying to remember things like a meeting or what you need to pick up at the grocery store.
John Rampton
When I left my grandmother’s home in 1986 headed to Savannah State with two brown grocery bags filled with my belongings, nothing was going to keep me from realizing my dreams.
Shannon Sharpe
I live right next to a grocery store and I don’t know if it’s the bachelor in me, but I just go in and shop for what I need for the day. I’m an idiot because I don’t shop for the whole week. The check out clerks always crack jokes about the fact that I’m in there sometimes twice a day.
Seann William Scott
I always joke about how I get excited to go to the grocery store without permission.
Megan Phelps-Roper
My maternal grandfather owned a grocery store that also sold kosher meat. He did well.
Dick Van Dyke
When my mother and I walked to the grocery store, men would circle the block in cars. It was very, very scary, especially as a young boy. Very predatory – a hunt.
Ryan Gosling
If you’re not clipping coupons before going to the grocery store, you’re overspending. If you’re ordering in or going out to dinner because you don’t feel like cooking, you’re overspending. If you’re not tracking where your money is going, you’re very likely overspending.
Jean Chatzky
I don’t care if you marry someone who works at the grocery store or someone who is a director of a company; everyone should have their own identity.
Khloe Kardashian
I don’t do much cooking because it’s impossible when you travel so much. You go grocery shopping, buy everything, and then get a call to fly out for two weeks. By the time you’re back, all the food is rotten.
Winnie Harlow
I love grocery shopping when I’m home. That’s what makes me feel totally normal. I love both the idea of home as in being with my family and friends, and also the idea of exploration. I think those two are probably my great interests.
Yo-Yo Ma
The deal is such that when I begin writing something, I open a door, and those characters come in, and then they won’t leave, and so I live with them every day, all day. They are there with me when I’m driving my kids to school, when I’m standing in line at the grocery store.
Khaled Hosseini
The perfect dressing is essential to the perfect salad, and I see no reason whatsoever for using a bottled dressing, which may have been sitting on the grocery shelf for weeks, even months – even years.
Julia Child
It’s about getting the kids up and fed, getting one to school, getting the other down for a nap, going to the grocery store, picking one up from school, getting the other one down for another nap, cooking dinner… I live my life at these two extremes. I’m either a full-time stay-at-home mom or a full-time actress.
Jennifer Garner
My father worked in a grocery store. When the grocery chain went into administration, he eventually got a job in the naval dockyard in an office preparing the charts for the boats and the submarines before they headed out.
Ian Rankin
I’ve been in grocery stores, and if they’re playing my music, I’ll yell, ‘Hey! I wrote that!’ I’ve been next to cars and have done that!
Diane Warren
A simple rule of thumb is to shop the periphery of the grocery store – that’s where you’ll find meat, fish, dairy, and vegetables. Choose high-quality protein such as healthy, grass-fed beef and lamb and organic chicken and pork, and eat them in moderation.
Suzanne Somers
Don’t accept what a grocery store has for you. Tell the store to get you want you want. If you want honey from a local farmer, organic honey, you tell them. We are in control. It’s up to us as the consumer to get what we want.
Lidia Bastianich
I remember being a little kid walking down the grocery aisle seeing athletes on these cereal boxes.
Nathan Chen
I shampoo only once a week or so, with tree tea oil shampoo. And when I slap moisturizer on my face – just some stuff I bought in the grocery store – I pile it through my hair.
Billy Campbell
When you have endless time, you take all day to go to the grocery store. But, if you have to be at work for 14 hours a day, you manage your time better. I know I do.
Zooey Deschanel
I’m not in the clubs; I’m a homebody. I go out when I feel I have to for work or if there’s a special function. You might catch me at the grocery store, but you won’t see me out and about in Atlanta.
Keith Sweat
I moved to L.A. and really didn’t dig living there until I found places like Koreatown and Little Tokyo. I really like hanging out in the grocery stores and restaurants.
Patrick Stump
A lot of people in line at the grocery store think that they know me, but they don’t.
Zosia Mamet
Ever consider what pets must think of us? I mean, here we come back from a grocery store with the most amazing haul – chicken, pork, half a cow. They must think we’re the greatest hunters on earth!
Anne Tyler
I was always the new kid in school, I’m the kid from a broken family, I’m the kid who had no dad showing up at the father-son stuff, I’m the kid that was using food stamps at the grocery store.
Dave Mustaine
In my early campaigns, people would sometimes come up to me at a grocery store or at a shopping mall and say, ‘I know you from somewhere.’
Amy Klobuchar
I go the grocery store every day, or at most every two days.
Hafthor Bjornsson
I read the ‘Deadpool’ series back in the ’90s. I’m not, like, a huge comic book reader, per say, though. I’ll check out ‘Archie’ when I’m in the grocery line, but that’s about it.
Ryan Reynolds
I don’t want to be more famous than what I have right now. At least in that sense where people come up to me in the grocery store.
Kathleen Robertson
I've gone up to a random guy in a grocery store before

I’ve gone up to a random guy in a grocery store before and said, ‘Hi, I think you’re cute. Are you single?’ I’m not smooth. I just put it out there.
Autumn Reeser
In Bulgaria, they use the Cyrillic alphabet, which is completely different from ours. You can’t sound the words out, so you can’t read street signs or packages in the grocery store! You have to rely on pictures and guesses.
Katherine McNamara
