Re: Save-Rite
While I know there are no more Save-Rite stores in Georgia, to the casual observer, there are. When the stores closed, it seems as if they simply turned off the lights and went home. Several of the stores still have their signage intact, both on the front of the store, and on pylon signs next to th...

I was just about to mention that very store as I have a friend who recently passed away who lived a couple blocks from that store. His wife was...

Vintage Winn Dixie Commercials on YouTube
You can find ANYTHING on YouTube. I especially have an interest in watching old news and commercials. I found this video of commercials and a "news break" from 1979-1980. It comes from my hometown area and was recorded from Miami's WCKT ch 7. which was an NBC station until 1989. That stati...

Goodings was founded in the mid 1960's with a store in Maitland. They were more of a service oriented high end grocery chain. All of their stores were around the Orlando area. I have only been to two of the Gooding's stores, one near Walt Disney World that catered mostly to a tourists visiting Disne...

Tifton Georgia 1940's market?
I found this building while working in Tifton Georgia late this afternoon. Located at the corner of North Central Avenue and West Second Street. Sorry for the quality of the photos. This building is on the SW corner and it was taken at 6pm as the sun was setting. http://edricfloyd.com/tiftonmarket1a...

Tifton Georgia Save-A-Lot
801 Love Avenue, Tifton Georgia Current Save-A-Lot store.
I am guessing it may have been a former Piggly Wiggly.
Any ideas?

Lakes Mall, Ft. Lauderdale Florida
Simular to the Boca Raton Mall is LAKES MALL in Lauderdale Lakes (Ft. Lauderdale) Florida. I don't know the history enough to confirm this but one look at the two back then and you assumed they were built and managed by the same people/company. This mall opened around the same time as the Boca Raton...

Harris-Teeter may have had stores in Roanoke. A friend of mine was hired to become a manager for Harris Teeter and was to relocate to Roanoke when the company decided to send him to the Greensboro area instead. I was told that Harris Teeter pulled out of Roanoke and Kroger took over the Roanoke HT s...
