Yeah groceries is "shopping"

"walking the strip and dreaming of buying random clothing" is "window shopping"

In Swedish, shopping has been loaned to mean window shopping. Buying groceries is commonly called att handla.
I think "go/do shopping" is the same in French, Spanish, Italian and German, as opposed to faire les courses / ir de compras / fare la spesa / einkaufen.
