Well, this is hardly news now, but I was finally able to get by the Saint Andrews Road Food Lion<\/i> near the dollar movies and get some outside pictures, though I did not have time to go in. I believe this store dates back into the LFPISC<\/b> era, if not all the way to the Food Town<\/i> era.<\/p>\n

With this closing, I think the two closest alternatives are both Bi-Lo<\/i>.<\/p>\n

(Hat tips to commenters Joe H. & Nick L).<\/p>\n

UPDATE 20 May 2013<\/b> -- Well, that's it. When I was in the store on 19 May, they announced they would be closings in 15 min at 6:00PM and \"We will not be re-opening tomorrow\":<\/p>\n
