It's definitely something I miss about my old place, easy access to good independent grocers. I don't mind paying more for veg when it tastes a lot better and keeps for longer. And it feels great to not support the duopoly and their BS.

I don't really have a good alternative for household items though. Aldi is a bit far and annoying to get to...
