<p>[QUOTE="msgood2shoe, post: 224699, member: 69"]We had Kresge's, Woolworth's & Ben Franklin, maybe Grants, but I'm not sure. In our town the Kresge's that was downtown was newer than the Woolworth's, so it seemed better. I remember buying strawberry floats at Woolworth's lunch counter, but I don't remember eating there as much as I remember eating at Kresge's. They had the best hot beef/turkey sandwich plate lunches. I also remember buying gifts for my Mom at Kresge's. The Woolworth's had a bakery department in the front of the store, and Mom would buy cinnamon pull-a-parts, basically monkey bread made in a muffin pan, and glazed. </p><p><br /></p><p>And yes, Kresge's owned K-Mart and eventually the Kresge's either closed or converted to K-Mart's.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
