Some of the department stores like Magasin du Nord and Illum offer a discount for foreign tourists. Show your passport, you can get a 10% discount besides tax-free refund. If you live in the EU, you can't get tax free refund, but only the 10% discount. (You should check this on the stores' homepage for latest update)
For groceries, you should be able to find most of the things in supermarkets like Netto, Aldi, Lidl, Superbrugen, Føtex, Irma. Netto, Aldi, Lidl are relatively cheaper, Irma is relatively expensive but with good quality items.
