Grocers Feel Chill From Millennials

Baby boomers used to bring long grocery lists to supermarkets and club stores. Now shoppers in their 20s and 30s are visiting supermarkets less frequently than their parents, government records and survey data show. They are spreading purchases across new options, including online grocery services such as AmazonFresh, beefed-up convenience stores and stronger food offerings from omnibus retailers like Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Target Corp.
from the Wall Street Journal
A grocer exclaimed "Woe is me!"
"My shoppers depart gradually"
"My meat and my cukes
are treated like pukes"
"I'll now have to file bankruptcy!"
