Fresno Grocery Stores - History and Details

~
Do you remember the Country Boys Market with its wooden floors? Walter Smiths was the place to go for clothes on the Fulton Mall. Penny Candy had great blacklight posters and don't forget Whitie's Pet Store on Blackstone. What vintage retail do you remember growing up in Fresno?

Thank you Big J!!! I enjoyed that. I remember many of those when I lived in Fresno until 1973. Now in Arizona its Fry's, Safeway, Albertsons, and now Walmart is everywhere. I really miss Continental and Young's from Fresno. The produce in Arizona is badddddddd!
