Who said anything about "schlepping their shopping around for 11"

the boot whenever it gets too much to carry. Then off to buy some more.
That *is* the normal way of shopping. How else are you going to buy two
or three times the amount you can carry in one day?

No, the *normal* way of shopping is to do the minimum possible, and to
do as much of that as possible online. Frankly, anyone wanting to spend
11 hours trudging around shops is insane.
