When I lived in FL it was Publix. Up here they have Wegman's and Top's and I like both equally.

Ohhh, in high school I used to have the hots so bad for a Publix produce guy. I spent lots of time in Publix. I still get a little smile when I see a bright green apron.

We don't have a Publix in NC, but Harris Teeter and Bi-Lo are my favorites.

Years ago it was Shegog's. Now it's a local chain grocery store that has about four stores. The one with the best seafood, deli items and generally a better selection is in the county seat, not in the dinky little village that is closest to where I live.

We have 3 Piggly Wigglys here- I only go there to "pick up" things since it's close- but they have a very, very poor selection. I liked Pick'n'Save in Oshkosh, but the one here is too small. I vote for Copps (it's an IGA).

Publix....but the one to the west of me is better than the one to the east...hehe...they are both close but it's amazing how each one is different.

I love Food World here!! They have a great selection an buy one get one free almost all the time!!

I go to the Pig (Piggly Wiggly) often, too, because it's convenient. But sooo expensive!!

we only have a local market, save mart and a food 4 less. food 4 less sometimes has better prices, but not always a full selection. i find myself going to save mart for marked down meats early in the morning and going to food 4 less for produce and vegetables. the local market is owned by a nice family, but it just doesn't have much selection at all. i go there if there is an ad for something specific. i really wish we didn't have to go 45 miles to the closest costco! as my sister once embarrassed herself in front of a large group of people talking about stores, "you can't beat their meat!" we still tease her about it :)

I used to shop at Piggly Wiggly when I lived in Macon, Georgia.

I go to SuperValu if it is just a quick stop, have one of those several blocks from home. Go to Rainbow just to get what's on sale, than over to Cub to do the main shopping.

I go to Costco for bulk items, including some of their meat, and yes "you can't beat their meat" unless you buy it by the half or whole cow as I often do.

We also have Cub here, and I forgot they have opened a few Festival Foods in the past year or so. I still like Copps though.

I also go all over- I went to Cub yesterday because they are the least expensive, but they don't have my coffee so I ended up making a stop at Piggly Wiggly for that. If I need any bulk stuff like trail mix or whatever, I have to go to Copps (or to the little co-op health food store).

Thanks, Kaili. I'm in Virginia, but I've never seen one! In fact, I thought it was a joke! LOL

Every grocery store is my favorite if I get there early enough. No crowded aisles, plenty of parking, and no line ups at the deli and checkout!!

In Phoenix the primary grocers are Fry's, Safeway, Albertson's and Basha's. I find it interesting that there aren't really any national chains and that most are regionalized.
