Where to Shop for Men
I hit the first store at 6:45 p.m. on a Tuesday night and spotted ten single guys, and then later at the specialty store at 8:00 p.m. I found fifteen available gents. So don’t shop too early; all you’ll catch are the guys rushing home for a family dinner.
Doin’ a little frozen food flirting.
Guys aren’t expecting you to hit on them in the grocery store, so it will take them by surprise when you start talking to them. I would pick up a package of free-range chicken and ask the nearest guy if he had ever tried it. I’d ask what they were thinking of having for dinner. And asking people for the time is a classic. I think I only confused one guy out of everyone I talked to, and when I ran into him at another aisle we still traded eye contact and smiles.
While the supermarket may not be the most ideal place to snag a guy, you can definitely shop for a boyfriend if you have the right mindset to do it. You’ll have to be open-minded and fun about it. Remember, all you have to do is ask questions and you can strike up a good conversation. And who knows? You could be eating your frozen dinners together later that night.

Men's clothing stores work too! Just say you're shopping for your brother.

I think the shampoo isle also tells a lot. Is he a groomer? Does he spend a lot on hair care? Or is a simple Suave kinda guy. This can be some crucial information.

Cute article! You can tell so uch about a person by looking at foods, medications, magazines. Good conversation starters when you see something you have in common.

I picked up a guy at a grocery store and a Pier 1 Imports store. Just a look into their cart says a lot. Wayyyy better to troll for men in random, yet respectable places than in bars.

Here's another tip: Look for guys in the cooking aisle. Guys picking up spices or flour definitely know how to cook! Frozen pizzas? You might end up doing the cooking.
