Supermarket Dating

Ever met someone special while shopping for your groceries?
I can't say I've ever met the man of my dreams, but I have at least met a few guys in the grocery store. In every case, the guy walked up to me, checked out my cart, and commented on something I had in there. (A standard "opening" when it comes to asking someone out.)
Since I was someone that bought a bouquet of flowers for myself every week, I also had a few guys that asked if they could purchase the bouquet for me. It was a sweet gesture, and a great opening. (I mean, really, how can a girl turn down an offer of flowers followed by a cup of coffee?)
One article I recently read even suggests that "supermarket dating" is becoming quite a trend across the world. It says, "Throughout the world, supermarket dating nights are becoming increasingly popular with young singles – and even some not-so-young singles."
Next time you need a cup of sugar, head to the supermarket rather than borrow from your neighbor. You just never know what (or who) you will find.
