Feb 20 2005

This little Mom and Pop grocery store was a fixture in west Tulsa for as long as I have been alive.
Long before there were big grocery store chains like Albertsons and Safeway there were these
family owned corner stores. We used to live down the street from H&E, and it was where we did
most of our shopping. They had a in-house butcher. They would cash a check for you even if you
didn't buy anything. They closed their doors for good on Feb. 12, 2005.

Your image and words really tell a story! MOM & POP stores are heading for extinction! They just can't compete with corporate America and the big chain stores are taking over! Here in NJ it seems DRUG stores are on every corner now!
