I never thought about doing that, either. Me, I just want to shop and
go home. I would not be hanging out having a drink at the grocery
store. Is someone going to watch my cart while I go upstairs for a
couple of classes of vino? Or should I drink first, then go shopping?

Sounds like a rather strange idea to me.
