In my country there is no supermarket, no website, no ATM. We are dependent only on the exchanger services. I don't have any option to spend my bitcoin unless I turned it to flat. Hope that is going to change soon.
Please be patient, I think you will feel it soon. now bitcoin is growing very rapidly. there are also many ATM, restaurant, E-commerce and also offline store that receive bitcoin. it's been proven and you can see it in the database of bitcoin recipients in each country. for supermarkets I do not think it's too much, especially as big supermarkets still require regulation for the safe use of bitcoins for them. some small-scale stores have already applied a lot. so now we have to wait for regulation in every country for the usage of bitcoin with very easy and safe. so the trust of big companies like supermarkets can use bitcoin in their financial system.

There are no supermarkets nearby my place, at least as far as I know. What I do is to convert or transfer my Bitcoins to my bank online then I go to my bank to withdraw the same. From then, I use whatever cash that has been converted for my daily needs. It has always been the cycle that I follow since not everyone is open to accepting Bitcoins.

Let me know if you have a better idea.

Thank you!

I have came across thread last week there is a super market accepts the bitcoin as a payment window now. Accepting bitcoin is for future currency revolution gonna taken part. Since is being used by the many people and this much widely spreaded in online. This is not reached to all the people in my city or else where to laymen level. Let it should be spreaded more to all the people first before reach to usage. Confirmation time should reduced to get the more adopted from the retails businesses.
Confirmation time was not really a problem, the last time I bought groceries in the local supermarket with Bitcoin. I just scanned a QR code with my smartphone and after a couple of seconds there popped up a message that the payment was completed. I just looked up what Payment processing system they use and it looks like it is Bitkassa. I found a manual on their website: https://www.bitkassa.nl/help , you can translate the page in the right upper corner.

Even we have huge numbers of Bitcoin users in my country without proper legalisation by our government, supermarkets and malls will have no interest on it but for sure they’re thinking about this for sometime. 2018 is a another year to be hopeful for this things.

The same situation on where I'm living right now. I have a guess that there are thousands of users(100k I think) but still there is no proper adoption and still only few establishments are adopting  bitcoin for their payment methods. I can even count them with my two hands so they are literally few for my country with a lot of bitcoin users. Popularity of bitcoin is there as an investment but the adoption is still lacking of the real market here. Craving to see that the supermarket near my home will adopt it soon.

Because it would be deemed illegal if ever those certified markets are dealing with bitcoin. Technically bitcoin is not illegal but also it hold no title to the government and it is not taxable. So even if a market would have the initiative to innovate bitcoin in their payment, they might actually be breaking some rules or policies on their payment. And it's a hustle if ever because you to log in many things and what if their are many costumers. It will just take time.

Moles Accept Bitcoin near you ?
What moles do you mean? Is this the animal one that digs up land? Anyone understands what this mole he's talking about?

Ahhh don't be like that, you know very well what he is talking about. Not all here has English as mother tongue, including me.
Funny tho Smiley

I don't know if I'm on the right mind yesterday, I'm not that good in English too and I guess I'm only from the first level - average level but I can't really understand the mole thing. So I was quite skeptic and really don't understand what he is asking about this. Well anyway still I'm serious on what I'm asking him anyway but let's forget about this thing, I'll interested to know these places and supermarkets who are accepting bitcoin now.

Bitcoin ATM has outrageous fees moreover i'm strongly doubting its security. As for bitcoin debit cards, they also have outrageous fees and seriously its unstable, there will be a countless temporary discountinuation of service just like whats happening now, apparently there was a change of regulation and most bitcoin debit cards providers have declared there will be a temporary discountinuation of service for users outside eu. We need merchants who will accept bitcoin directly without the need of some 3rd party services for conveniency and to kill those fees as well as freedom to fully use our bitcoin.

The problem with this is that merchants need a protection to the bitcoin volatility so they would need to charge a higher amount in their products than usual so that when the value of bitcoin goes down, they will still be in profit. They can avoid this if they also purchase their product in bitcoin so that volatility in the prices will not matter as the main currency is bitcoin but this is not happening yet because fiat is still the one use so the most convenient way to use crypto is still through debit cards may it be bitcoin or other cryptocurrency.

No, we don't have any supermarket that accepts bitcoin here, but we have bitcoin ATM in the mall so if you want to spend your bitcoin you may convert your bitcoin to the cash first then spend them. But I heard there are so many services like bitcoin visa debit card where you can buy literally anything, I don't have any experience with that card before but if this method really works well I think we don't need the merchant to accept bitcoin.

Is there any Supermarket
In my country I haven't found that one as there's no news about the adoption of supermarkets that are going to accept bitcoin for the payment of their groceries. But I would love to try it out if there will be some of it but I'll limit myself since I'm a bad spender of my own bitcoin.

But who knows, they are business they are into higher fees so even if you are a loyal customer to them and suggesting a good payment processor.  Do you think they will care for saving their customers for fees?
It's not about the customers to save on fees, I am talking about merchants having to pay the fees of up to 3% per transaction. Imagine how that is if you as super market have a turnover of $100 million annually, where that number is far higher for the larger super markets. It means that you just 'burn' 3% of your sales, while with Bitcoin, this could be done with just 1%, which saves them a minimum of $2 million each year as per this example. If you want to give people more incentive to make use of Bitcoin, you could even offer them a discount of like 0.5% of their entire purschasing amount. It would then lift the total fee per transaction to 1.5%, but is still far lower than when people end up using their credit cards.

To answer the question I don't have any supermarket or mall that accepts bitcoins, this is the first time I see someone asking this question here. Supermarkets have to many products, and many of them need have expiration dates. This products that are not sold are being returned. With bitcoin fluctuations it's hard to set up all this everyday, there is many distributors, companies, little firms that deal with supermarkets, and on all that add that they need to have all paper's clean for paying taxes, SL government regulations here are very important.
I believe its possible that Japan have some supermarket that accepts bitcoins, they are more advanced then rest od the world, other countries are far from that.
