Back in the 14th century, there were small locally owned grocers (also known as trading posts) that would sell dry items such as tea, herbs, spices, sugar, coffee, and other baking goods. As time passed, they began to sell other household staple foods such as canned meat, fruit, vegetables, or soups. Typically, customers would walk into these types of stores; hand a list to the clerk, and the clerk would bag up the items and ring them up. Since most of the foods were nonperishable, there were seldom sales like we see today. Bargains were only found in the case of an over stocked item, or through friendly one-on-one negotiations. In 1916 in Memphis Tennessee, Clarence Saunders established Piggly Wiggly, a popular common store seen throughout the southern United States. This was the first 'self-serve' grocer. This way of shopping proved to be very popular for both customers and storeowners. The customer enjoyed the freedom of browsing for the most desired items. Piggly Wiggly carried a whopping 605 different items (a sharp contrast to the then dated smaller local stores) and there was a greater opportunity for the consumer to purchase more than what they initially intended, making the storeowner happy as well. However, because there were a wider variety of perishable goods the store had to mark down prices on fresh produce, meats, dairy and eggs. It did not take a smart shopper long to figure out that the best day for shopping was the day before the next delivery was expected. The clerks always marked down the older items, to make room for the new.
