You may only buy the same thing every week, but some of us comparison shop to save money. If you don't like people talking to each other then don't buy anything on that aisle.
Or better yet,
Every grocery store now offers curbside pickup. Use that feature, then you won't be bothered by the together shoppers.
Oh and consider yourself dang lucky that you can go to the store by yourself.
Some of us can't do that so quit being so dang judgy.
I hate people that assume stuff about others.
You don't have a clue if one of a couple doesn't drive or if those moms do stay at home. Maybe they are working and can't afford a babysitter.
You don't like the stores, use curbside pickup.

Puhleeze, gurl! Don't make assumptions that we "all" have delivery or curbside pickup, either. You know when the option to pick up groceries came to
my neck of the woods? About 6 months ago, and it's
ONE store. ONE. Speaking of "comparison" shopping! And the store that has it? Is, I kid thee not,
48 miles away from me, so I make a 90+ mile trip--just to "pick-up" the groceries.
Secondly, I don't think that anyone here objects to a mom and her kids, or whatever. What most of us seem to object to are rude or inconsiderate fellow shoppers. Merely having kids with you doesn't automatically qualify for that. Nor does it disqualify the person in question, either.
