In the last year, I have started to go once a week, and I try not to forget anything. Saves so much time! I plan for 5-6 dinners/lunch(leftovers), make a list of what I need, and try too prepare what I can immediately when I get back to save time on weekday nights.

I usually make 2 stops, for example the fruit & veggie stop at a specialized store where I can get good quality, and a regular grocery store for the few meats & processed/canned stuff we have. Some others weeks, I go to an ethnic place a bit further which is "1 stop", and I then buy those little special spices, sauces, breads, ....
