Living centrally helps and I am very close to many nice stores so a few small trips a week is not a big deal.
+1 to all this - panniers, trailer depending on size of shopping, live centrally. One addition - my wife rides a cruiser bike with WALD folding baskets on it - the baskets each hold a full, reusable grocery bag, so this works for small trips too.....
