I remember winning $10 bucks in an Easter egg hunt there when I was small! avivoca on "Have you ever shopped at Piggly Wiggly?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-shopped-at-piggly-wiggly#post-1557104 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 15:52:43 +0000 avivoca 1557104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrs. Sketchbook: The Help also talks about the Jitney Jungle. avivoca on "Have you ever shopped at Piggly Wiggly?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-shopped-at-piggly-wiggly#post-1557101 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 15:52:21 +0000 avivoca 1557101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I've only been to one, and it was definitely sketchy. It was in Memphis when we visited my grandma (probably around 1997). When we went later, we went to a different store, but I can't remember the name.

But I did go to it when something good was on sale.

Not for a long time, though. I have also shopped at a Jitney Jungle. Yeah.

The PWs on HHI are an institution! We have started shopping at the Bi-Lo on HHI. I think it is a lot cheaper than the pig. But we usually stay on that side of the island, so it makes sense.

I didn't even know they were real until then! regberadaisy on "Have you ever shopped at Piggly Wiggly?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-shopped-at-piggly-wiggly#post-1556665 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 14:03:26 +0000 regberadaisy 1556665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope! We saw one when we were in Hilton Head but BIL said Publix was better so we shopped there instead for the week cascademom on "Have you ever shopped at Piggly Wiggly?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-shopped-at-piggly-wiggly#post-1556660 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 14:02:47 +0000 cascademom 1556660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ There's one in my parent's neighborhood. I used to shop at it all the time until other grocery stores popped up in the area.

The ones at the beaches in SC are super nice though! With Starbucks inside like a "real" grocery store, lol!

The shirt I have says "what happens at the pig stays at the pig." I also have a onesie for LO that said Piggly on the front and wiggly on the back with a pig tushie, lol! Both came from HHI. My ex boyfriend's aunt used to work for Piggly wiggly corporate and they had some sort of pig bucks that customers could get and redeem the bucks for prizes. This ex's aunt gave him a ton and he used the 'bucks' to furnish his dorm room!

I even worked at one when we lived in South FL as a cashier while in HS. @blackbird: I don't think there are any near me! blackbird on "Have you ever shopped at Piggly Wiggly?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-shopped-at-piggly-wiggly#post-1556582 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 13:38:56 +0000 blackbird 1556582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yep! I used to live in Georgia :) Torchwood on "Have you ever shopped at Piggly Wiggly?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-shopped-at-piggly-wiggly#post-1556581 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 13:38:36 +0000 Torchwood 1556581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ When I was growing up I spent a ton of time at my grandmother's, and she had one within walking distance so we went a lot. Now the closest one is in a fairly sketchy area of town, so I wouldn't feel comfortable stopping there. I kinda wish there were more, just for sentimental reasons! mrsrain on "Have you ever shopped at Piggly Wiggly?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-ever-shopped-at-piggly-wiggly#post-1556575 Wed, 09 Apr 2014 13:36:52 +0000 mrsrain 1556575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I have not, but my husband grew up going there and his pig loyalty cracks me up! Also, we have two Piggly Wiggly cloth grocery bags and I get a comment on them almost every time we use them at the store.

Same goes for the gas station named "Slip In."

Too funny!

There are three Piggly Wigglys in my area but none in my town so I don't shop there. We do go to the pig when we go to HHI though! They are still big in SC.
