This statistic features the results of an online survey conducted in 2017 among U.S. household primary shoppers who were asked how often they go grocery shopping in a store. The findings indicate that 10 percent of U.S. consumers aged 18 to 29 years went grocery shopping more than four times a week, while the same was true for three percent of those aged 60 years or older.
