About 25 mi. There are only 3 on the Oregon Coast. About every few weeks we have a Dr appt or something that takes us close. Amazon helps alot in between.

That is all some of us have Hatty.

The town I'm closet to (3.5 miles) has a Piggly Wiggly but the prices make it worth the ride to WalMart.

Definitely. Can't beat Walmart pricing. It's worth the trip.
Love Walmart & their associate Murphy Oil for gas and diesel pricing/convenience.

Although, I've begun buying diesel and gas at QT, because they're a listed seller of Top Tier fuels, as is Costco.

Yes, you can beat Walmart pricing.

I've boycotted Walmart for over a decade and I pay for what I want, but I avoid promoting a business which underpays its workers, damages public roads without paying for the damage and uses its size to underbid suppliers.
