Dial back to the early 1970s, and that was my mother. Always took all four of us to Kroger on Saturday, and my father never went to the store.
Of course, he did his own shopping after the divorce.
We used to go to the store together. After our first child was born, we have discovered the joys of "Peapod" by Giant -- order online, schedule a delivery time. There are other such services in various regions. The selection is not as complete as a full store, but it is workable. The prices are in the same ballpark.
P.S. to Vietmom: Beer actually works for slugs. Draws them in and kills them dead.
