Do you do a big weekly shop or just get what you need when you need it?

Interesting netherlands fact alert: Supermarkets here are very small and there are lots of them. Confused me a bit and found it annoying that they’d often only have one of the thing you wanted to buy. Someone explained that’s because everyone cycles here so people only buy what they can carry on their bike, so pretty much go every day.
I’ve big shop mentality but then when I go I only do a small shop. I think I’ve got everything I need for the rest of the year that isn’t asparagus and chicken and lettuce and a tin of something red.
One thing I miss about London is having easy access to a big supermarket. My last place there was about five minutes from one, and two others were within twenty minutes.
There’s one not too far from my flat here (still in walking distance) but I only tend to go once every two weeks or so, and just supplement with stuff from the middling sized one in the city centre.
