Shopping woes

You know what I hate about Ningbo? It's supermarkets. Or complete lack of such establishments. There are 2 TrustMarts, 2 Auchans, 1 Metro and 1 TESCO... and that's about it. Oh, and 1 Carrefour. Most of them are quite far from the place I live, and only two are somewhat reachable by public transport from here. One of these is Auchan (expensive and nothing good in there anyway), and another is TESCO (40 minutes by bus to the city center, but good and cheap). So I usually stock up on microwave food and veggies once a week (that's quite a feat, I tell you, as my fridge is good for keeping a six-pack in it and nothing more)...

Looks like even dream jobs have their drawbacks, huh?..
