Piggly Wiggly

Piggly Wiggly LLC was founded in 1916 by Clarence Saunders and was the first true grocery store.....you know what screw it.

Well this is a Piggly Wiggly grocery store that I think might have been the last one around here to operate (there are 2 in Denton I think). I only got outside shots though due to unforeseen circumstances. I dunno if its still there, would love to get in there though.

Dull I know but......

Wow.. I remember those stores! I forgot all about them. I wish they'd bring one to my area...

Thats because you're not in the age group to remember it.

You should feel left out for missing triple coupon days, though.

Food stamps don't count.

I told you, I was not the one that stole your food stamps from the basket on your bicycle when you were in that tunnel. Get over it already.

I remember S&H Green Stamps at the Piggly Wiggly in Fort Smith, Arkansas, circa 1975. We also took our pop bottles (and anyone else's if we could get our hands on them) back to the store for the nickel deposit.

The older I get, the more stories I have. Man, it's fun being 40 -- I should have done it years ago!

I was depressed because I just entered into my last year of my 20's.

When I say I'm 'clean and sober', it means I've showered and I'm headed to the liquor store.

Yeah, but the creepiness factor for 36 would limit you to 25.

(from xkcd - A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language)

I'm ok down to 27, apparently.
