We don't have Piggly-Wiggly, but I think it's like 7-11 that I think I have
been in one once.  We don't have pawn shops and I have no idea what OTB
stands for.  I have never seen cigarrettes sold except by the pack, didn't
know you could buy singles.  You guys have special bags to carry your dimes
in??  Is that so you don't have to hunt for them if you have to call the
cops in a hurry cause somebody is chasing you and threatening great bodily
harm?  Ruth, man am I glad I live up here
