I'm guessing we just don't go shopping as frequently. We usually go to the store every other week or so, so we buy 1-2 weeks worth of groceries at a time. To get bulk discounts, we tend to buy something large each trip (25lb bag of flour or rice, 20+ rolls of toilet paper, etc).
That said, I've never had a problem doing a trip on my bike that can only support 100lbs (kid trailer), and I find myself going more frequently with my bike because getting to the store is more enjoyable.
