You can't do a week's worth of shopping but in an urban environment it's easy enough to stop by a supermarket every couple days on your way home from work/school. I can fit 2 supermarket shopping bags in the front basket and strap a bale of toilet paper to the rear package holder no sweat. Around here furniture and electronics stores typically offer same- or next-day delivery for free or cheap.

You can even do a week's shopping, using a bicycle-pulled trailer (otherwise used for carrying small kids). As a side-effect you even benefit from the courtesy of drivers, who may think you are carrying your children as usually.

Exactly. Weekly shops are a thing for suburbanites!

When you have easy walking/cycling access to multiple grocery stores, you just go shopping whenever you need something and never buy more than you can carry.
