Grocery Shopping Habits - Does this make me weird?

I shop for the week every Sunday.. Here's my itinerary:

I go to Wal Mart for non-perishables like canned goods, crackers, chips, soda.. Basically anything a $7/hr employee doesn't need to know anything about in order to keep it safe to eat.. Read below to see what I'm talking about.

I go to the regular grocery store if they are having a sale on something non-perishable such as the same as above, but not for the same reasons.

Then I hit Costco for bulk things.. I must be one of the only people in the world who goes into Cosco for one or two items. Love the huge jar of marinated artichoke hearts for the same price as the tiny ones at the store.

I go to Sprouts for produce, then an actual butcher for meat, and a real bakery for bread.

About the only thing I can't find nearby is a dairy.. So for that sort of stuff it's either the grocery store or Sprouts.

I gotta tell you.. since I started going to specialty shops for things like bread and meat, food just tastes better..

* Wal Mart... I decided to stop buying perishables when I witnessed an employee take meat that was behind a checkout magazine rack for who knows how long and put it back in the case.

Why did I just tell you all this? I don't know.. I just felt like typing something.
