When I was in college, my roommate and I didn't have a car our first three years. If we wanted some junk food and soda (or dinner for that matter in our 2nd and 3rd year) we had to take the bus 20 minutes up the hill to the local Price Chopper grocery store. From that experience I learned how to get enough food from the store to the kitchen with as little carrying space as possible: nothing but my hands and a backpack. If you cut out the backpack, you would be surprised how much food you can hold in a few bags dangling from your hand.
If you shop for 10 lunches in the store and you need a cart, you probably have way too much food. Therefore you probably have way too much $$$ flying out of your pocket as well! When you go into the grocery store don't grab for a cart, grab for basket. You'll cut down on what you buy if you have to lug it around the store first. When you realize the sheer weight and volume of the food you will eventually put into your stomach you will probably reconsider that 10lb steak.
