Oh for sure if I need more cardamom, or any other bulk spices/herbs/nuts, or have a recipe that calls for more than just "a tomato" or "an onion" - I'll definitely go there. I might even stop by when I'm down that way, which does happen now and then.
Since Fresh Market has their $3.99/lb ground chuck and boneless chicken boobs, it's likely I'd be out that way perhaps every 6 weeks or so anyway. I could get my chuck or chicken, get a fresh sub roll from Publix (it is the BEST bread for making your own garlic bread), and some veggies at Sprouts. It's a nice little triangle, and I can easily get a bite to eat at the Mexican joint after getting the bread, then pick up the cold foods before heading home again.
When I'm /not/ going to Walmart, I try to turn my shopping trip into a little adventure. It's entertaining to me.
