/Sounds like "groh" (as in "grow") + "seh" (as in "set") + "REE" (as in "reed") + "ahs" (as in "art")/
Chicano Spanglish for groceries or supermarket food shopping, straight from English. Nothing to do with "groserías" (bad words): these are the bags of food you bring back from the market.
“Help me bring the groceries inside, they're heavy.”
“I forgot half the groceries in the car.”

Garrón
A hassle, nuisance, or annoyance that demands way more effort than the result is worth. In Argentina and Uruguay, "garrón" describes everything from a three-hour wait at a government office to a tedious errand that goes nowhere. The feeling of wasted time and disproportionate effort.
