Those that didn't shop at A&P probably did so at this modern marvel, Piggly Wiggly, "the expensive alternative down the street." It even featured a conveyor belt to take your groceries to your waiting car under the covered portico. How convenient! But it was an idea that never caught on...maybe Albertson's will give this a try next!
