I can do that and do it most days of the week, I don't need a car to buy
a bottle of milk.


That is the sum of your groceries and shopping? ;-)


No but it's typical of what I mostly buy from local stores for local people.
I wouldn't buy an angle grinder from my local tobacconists shop, would you ?

I've never had to use a car to get my shopping from a supermarket and have only ever been in a car ounce to go to a supermarket and that's because a friend asked me to go with him.
