I'd shop more at Aldi's too, but it's over twice as far as Super Walmart, another prominent local chain in my region, and the IGA. About the only time I do is if I have to fly for work since the airport is quite close to that.
There are no buses out by me, but we have a cool bike trail built along old railroad tracks that they removed that goes over trestle bridges across the corners of some lakes and straight into town, population 4k. I ride the UTV down my county road to one of the trailside parking lots and then ride my bike into town from there. And if the weather is crappy I just do delivery or just take the UTV the extra miles into a smaller town where UTVs are legal on nearly every street, but it only has one grocery store.
I know it's stupid, but I enjoy that I don't actually need ID to do that, I only need to have been born before 1988 and have the UTV registered ($30 every 2 years and no emissions tests required).
