I am surprised by the big percentage of people shopping at Walmart. We shop at BJ's, which isn't one of the choices listed. We will splurge on steaks.

Somewhat - prepared foods help make entertaining easier so that's what I usually splurge on.

I like to focus on organic and more healthy Local Foods because I really think it's beneficial. I also understand that a lot of people for parties will over by food and it will get wasted so I try not to over by. These results do not surprise me.

I agree! I create cheese platters, fruit and veggie trays with dips.

I agree with most things. I shop more at club stores for party items. I also like to make a lot of food myself.

Yes, I agree with the results. I splurge on beverages. My go to item is disposable dinnerware for easy cleanup.

No. I don't buy any canned goods and I don't shop at Wal-Mart.

I agree. Chips and good dips are a must for my guests.

I agree I would get most of the stuff at a grocery store.

I love splurging on local cheese at the farmer's market, and summer fruits.

Most of the results are as to be expected but to be honest I would have thought on the second graph (circle) that there would have been a larger difference for chips and dip. Surprisingly, chips and dip isn't taking up a larger percentage. And no surprise most people, when shopping for needs for entertaining guests, most people choose to go to Wal-Mart. Seems like Wal-Mart is everyone's go to for just about anything!
