Mack: There was a small grocery store by my grandmother's on Jersey St. called Leslie's. One great gentleman. I was always running over there for her. Gave him the book and he just wrote down the items and amount. Granny paid at the end of the week.
Ritzy had two locations and the "home office" was on Heil & Ellis. It was a hoot watching old "Mr. Ritzy" drive that 51 Chevy panel truck (dark green with yellow letters) ... old Mr. Z could hardly see over the wheel.
One I really miss was the Mezarros Meats on Broad and _____ ? Anyhoo, it was out around or just past Lalor. The breakfast sausage was a fine ground ... I've never had anything like it and never will again.
Hi Mack: I would like to mention again that we had a grocery store on Mott St. in the 20s. It seems like in the 50s, it was the same story. Almost everyone bought things and put it on the book. That is what caused my Mom and Dad to close the store. JoeZ mentions the book and most of the Burg stores had the same problem. It was tough during the depression to stay in business. Best Regards.
Also a "Ritzy" at corner of Hilton and Columbus Aves.
