lol you’re expecting someone who has trouble walking to shop for groceries daily?

Yeah, it's a lot less effort than the suburban car dependent 1 hour shop. You pick up a couple things from the corner store every day. In and out in two minutes. It's way less intensive

Maybe for you, but making a grocery list and buying stuff in bulk is cheaper and, even for those who live within walking distance to a store, more convenient. It’s also more time-efficient.

And, of course, this is just for groceries; people always shop for other stuff in bulk, during sales, etc.
