I just make it a regular chore with a schedule, exactly like cleaning the litter box or doing laundry. It helps that I take my lunch to work every week as a matter of money-saving, so every week about the same time I need items to make lunch with. So every Saturday morning (I live in a VERY heavily Orthodox Jewish area, though I am not myself Jewish, and on Saturday 90% of the village is at temple and would never THINK of going to the store) I drag myself out of the apartment with my list.
On days when I am particularly "do not WANT" about it, I bribe myself with bagels (there's a Panera less than 2 minutes from my awesome grocery store) or some other kind of treat--but only after the shopping is done!
