As far as I know, none of the supermarkets around the world accepts direct payments in Bitcoin. It is not very practical, due to high transaction fees, volatility in the exchange rates and time required for getting the confirmations. What you can do is that you can convert Bitcoin to supermarket gift cards (using sites such as Bitrefill) and you can make the payment using these gift cards.

Actually I do have a feeling like you. However, It's illogical thing at the moment comparing the status of my nation. As a bitcoin lover I want to see a worldwide distribution and acceptance of bitcoin and different digital forms of money, which will permit individuals around the globe to take advantage of the Bitcoin payment system at the supermarket.

Everyone is interested also ready for it to happen, right now some people who knows the important of bitcoin prefer it more than Pape money. While is decentralized and many countries is using it as a means of exchanges, which with Fiat currency is not equivalent to their worth if it's between dollar and pond's.
Even myself intend to purchase things in supermarket with Bitcoin than shit money because everything is turning into Bitcoin and with btc all transactions are easy.

If you want to pay with bitcoin in supermarkets you need to know that Bitcoin transactions are slower than other forms of payment, which are cash and bank cards.
Paying with Bitcoin has a higher transaction cost. It is impractical with intermittent transactions.
I hope there will be a company that provides a bitcoin payment service but relies on another protocol like bitcoin wrap to make transactions faster and less costly.
I think paying in form of Bitcoin will be faster and smooth flow of transaction, why? It is because we promote and like Bitcoin or crypto because we can easily made transactions, of course if it's accepted in both ways. Regarding about company that will pay in form of Bitcoin, i think it will take a longer time until it happens why? Simply because some countries maybe not ready or bitcoin industry is not known very much. Paying with Bitcoin has a higher transaction cost. It is impractical with intermittent transactions.

if I buy something at the supermarket for just a few tens of dollars, and I use bitcoin to pay for it,
Is the cost of buying these items not too expensive, so to buy items that are not too high in value at the supermarket, I better use paper money,
but if you buy expensive things, maybe using Bitcoin could be an option,
but I believe Op's desire to be able to use Bitcoin will come true but not for now, maybe in the future.

If the transaction fees is already been solve and no longer that much, paying btc would be nice to deal with, it will promote more
and more people will be attracted to support this chain.
but for now, the fees is not that friendly yet, buying that worth with too expensive fees to proceed, it's won't attract anyone.

Just a feeling I have. It's all credit cards and dollars and shit.
Yeah, I'd rather spend the shit money and save my bitcoins, but I can't wait until I can use real money everywhere. I'd rather get paid in bitcoin and spend bitcoin.

Bitcoin is worthy in the majority of territories and nations.
In my locale, numerous business sectors accept bitcoin as an installment technique.
Our legislature is supporting the digital currency and they fabricate numerous ATM There was a time when using bitcoin was illegal, however, later government recognize the intensity of bitcoin and let their people to utilizing it. I suggest you hold up until your government permitted it.

I Love Bitcoin really. But I can't use it in my country. It is not allowed in my country but I use it though. COC
How can you use it if it's not allowed in your country?That's the problem. We need to wait that cryptocurrency will be allowed to use legally in our country although there are some person and store already start to accept as payment but still not enough. We need to see that malls and supermarkets are going to accept bitcoin as payments for goods and services.

Well, there are probably a lot of crypto currency enthusiasts if not all that would really want to use any crypto currency as means of salary and payment since it seems so easy and futuristic or maybe because we are just so into this industry and want mass adoption that much that we really want to experience spending and getting paid with bitcoin or any other crypto currency in a day to day basis. I sure hope that day comes within my lifetime.

Even me too i can't wait to start using bitcoin as a payment in supermarket and other business sector.
I think other country legalized bitcoin payment in the areas of supermarket and other business sector, to accept bitcoin as a payment for the commodities someone has purchase. It will also be a welcome development to sure country that legalized bitcoin as a payment in supermarket and other business sector in the country.
I beleive sooner many countries would like to enback on such exchange in the business sector because it will not be afear for them moving with fiat money to all business sector.

How can you use it if it's not allowed in your country?Cryptocurrency adoption is still on the move even though there are hindrances and blockage on some countries but eventually it will be gradually be reconsidered.
Lets hope for the best until we can use it and be part on our daily life routine.
That is sad to hear since having access to Cryptocurrency can really change your life. Have you tried looking for other people that also is being repressed by that opportunity within the country? Maybe some can still use it but they need to go thru some elaborate way to get their money without being traced back from Bitcoin.
These kind of countries really need to change their ways or take a look at it more positively since Cryptocurrency can really help some people.

Some of the reasons why bitcoins are restricted to some countries is because they think it is a threat to current monetary systems. Sad thing about this is, bitcoin is a great cryptocurrency yet some considered them as a threat.

The merchants that are accepting BTC as mode of payment are very small in comparison with what the revolution has to over. Hope we are going to see a mass adoption in the near future and embraced as the easiest and reliable means of exchange by Governments of all cadres.

I think we are almost everybody in here sharing the same feeling of wishing and wanting to use Bitcoin as a payment option directly straight to do purchase goods and services within the supermarket and any other merchants without the need to do conversion of Bitcoin into any local currencies of which country you do belong. Right here in my country, we are still too far beyond that since only a few percentage of our total population are using Bitcoin and only few also knows and recognizes Bitcoin but still not into using it. As of the moment, we are freely having Bitcoin transactions but still on purchasing, there is still a call of need to convert first our Bitcoins to our national currency to be able to access our funds to be able to do payments on purchasing goods and services in any merchants and supermarkets. I am still looking forward that in the near future, we can be able to directly use Bitcoin as a payment method on paying any goods and services.

I would also love to pay for stuffs around my area with bitcoin, but sadly I'm from a third tier country where bitcoin technology has not been fully adopted, so there's no way I can buy stuffs and pay in bitcoin, about 70% of the total of population here don't even know what is "bitcoin" 
, and the bad news is that the 30% who know about it cant use it freely any more due to restrictions placed by the government.

I have already payed in a supermarket using bitcoin some years ago. But I used a debit card loaded with some coins.
Or I have sent some coins to a friend that was paying for me in cash.
I don't think at current status this could be possible, we need LN or other implementation since it could be very hard and expensive pay at groceries with coins (imagine wait for at least 1 confirmation ... :O )
If I remember correctly, I payed some "aperitifs" just with coins... but I was in a bitcoin meetup
it was easy pay there with my crypto.
