I feel your grief in the non car possessing aspect. I have baskets on my bike for that : P.

But, if you're in need of groceries and someone to drive you, walk to the store, gather all your food, and then give APS or DDS a call (depending on the time). It's free, and believe me, I would know (we actually picked up some guys who were grocery shopping and needed a ride across town!).

Also, which pagan bookstore are you talking about? Tsunami?
