I don't do shares, but insofar as your question with Russo's v. Wilson ... I find Russo's to be marginally better value with their produce. Their prices are cheaper than Wilson and their quality has been just as good, imho. Plus Russo's tends to have more produce in stock than Wilson's.
However, the only reason why I go to Russo's is for produce. Their butcher is pretty skimpy. Their bread selection is rather thin and their dairy is perfunctory. Russo's delicatessen/charcuterie seems better than Wilson's but I'm not in a habit to shop for cold cuts ... ditto prepared foods.
Wilson's, on the other hand, tends to have more 'interesting' and boutique produce items. Their meat/chicken selection is much larger, though also way overpriced, and their bakery is much better.
I find that I shop at Wilson's more often than Russo's, but that's largely because of convenience. Wilson's is on my regular bike commute route, and it's pretty easy to just stop there and pick up something for dinner. I always have to make a special trip to shop at Russo's.
