unrelated question: do you guys say "supermarket" or "grocery store" people here think saying supermarket is weird. hmph
we jsut say "store" sometimes "grocery store" but mostly just "store"
i say "i'm going food shopping." or the "store," yeah.
supermarket, we're from NY and are the normal ones. They are the weirdos remember that..
Yeah, we just say store and then specify which (Walmart, Stop & Shop Foodtown, whatever)
the difference is that i have real grocery stores near me. Like a small koren run store with regular fruits and vegetables and all kinds of roots i don't think humans should even be ingesting, but oh well. And i have a supermarket a block after that. Whole big store. Hence the supermarket..
