Groceries would be tougher, since many of them need to be put in the

Unfortunately there's no delivery service in my area, so I drive the 3

You'd have to go to the store every day or two if you were carrying food
back.


Some of us cope with that. It does, of course, depend on how close by
your shops are, and how fit you are - but it's certainly not an
insurmountable problem. The new Tesco Express/Metro and Sainsburys Local
shops popping up all over the place help to meet this need very well in
London.
