Roswell Survey Compares Stores and Prices Over Time
The 1973 Roswell survey ranks Sears Roebuck Co. and C. K. Anthony Co. top in Coliseum apparel, G. F. Wacker and Kress among variety stores, and Safeway and Piggly Wiggly leading food stores. It notes price, inventory, staff, and parking as reasons for store preference, with more cash buyers than in 1966 and limited credit use for large appliances. The study finds overall life satisfaction higher in 1973 than 1966, despite some price dissatisfaction and a shift toward cash transactions.
