3 Piggly Wiggly Deals South Carolina Shoppers Don’t Want to Miss
Fourteen of South Carolina’s Piggly Wiggly stores answer to one family, not a corporate office in another state.
The rest answer to different families entirely.
Each one keeps its own Facebook page and posts its own weekly ad.
These are the Piggly Wiggly deals South Carolina shoppers can put to use this week, no matter which family runs their store.
1. 260 Digital Coupons, Free to Clip
260 digital coupons sit ready to clip on Piggly Wiggly’s own site, thepig.net, at any given time.
They’re sorted by category, so a shopper can jump straight to household goods or personal care instead of scrolling everything.
Nothing to buy first.
A shopper just taps to clip.
The coupon attaches to their phone number automatically.
Current offers include $2 off two boxes of Kellogg’s cereal, $1 off two General Mills cereals, and $5 off one adult Zyrtec pack.
Piggly Wiggly won’t stack two of its own digital coupons on the same product.
Double-clipping the same item does nothing extra.
2. Cashing in Pig Points for $10
Every new member of Piggly Wiggly’s Pig Points program gets a 200-point head start.
Finish the sign-up profile, not just the phone number.
Those 200 bonus points land on the account after the first purchase closes.
That’s $2 for typing in a name, an address, an email and a birthdate.
Free money.
Points keep working the same way after that: Give the register a phone number at checkout to start every eligible purchase adding to the balance.
The math is simple: 100 points turns into $1 off, 500 points covers $5, and 1,000 points knocks $10 off a total.
Once a reward is ready, the checkout screen shows it the next time a shopper types in that phone number.
What Piggly Wiggly’s Pig Points Won’t Cover
Pig Points doesn’t add up on every item Piggly Wiggly sells.
Alcohol, tobacco, pharmacy prescriptions, gift cards and lottery tickets never earn points.
Points also expire 90 days after a shopper earns them.
A balance built up over a slow summer can vanish before it’s ever cashed in.
3. Store-Brand Bread With Double Points
Store-brand bread turned up at two loaves for three dollars on Piggly Wiggly Georgetown’s Facebook page this year.
Members who bought it also earned double Pig Points on the purchase.
That combination never touched thepig.net or the statewide app.
It lived only on that one store’s own page.
Independently owned stores across South Carolina run their own Facebook pages the same way.
Lowcountry Grocers alone keeps separate pages for its Moncks Corner, Hanahan and Georgetown locations, each one posting markdowns and one-day specials the shared app never carries.
Follow the wrong page, though.
A shopper in Hardeeville can end up reading about a Hilton Head store’s deal instead of her own.
Find your store’s page first.

Family-Run Stores, Not One Chain
South Carolina’s Piggly Wiggly stores trace back to a wholesale outfit called Piggly Wiggly Carolina, founded in Charleston in 1947.
That company dissolved in 2014.
C&S Wholesale Grocers, based in New Hampshire, now supplies and licenses Piggly Wiggly stores across South Carolina and coastal Georgia.
Every one of those stores belongs to a separate owner.
Different owner, different deals.
Lynn and Cindy Willard’s company, Lowcountry Grocers, runs fourteen of them, from Florence and Georgetown down to Surfside Beach.
Director of Operations Craig Kelly says the fourteen stores work cooperatively as the Willards’ market areas have grown crowded with competitors.
Their North Charleston store still runs its own in-store butcher, cutting almost every piece of meat that reaches the shelf by hand.
Lowcountry Grocers’ stores have also run a holiday food-basket program together for about two decades, delivering meals to South Carolina families each winter.
Nationwide, more than 600 stores fly the Piggly Wiggly banner across 17 states.
Not one answers to a single corporate office the way a Publix or a Food Lion does.
A Mansion Named for the Pig
A house on Charleston’s Battery earned the nickname “Piggly Wiggly House” long before its pig statues made news again this year.
The house sits at 74 Murray Boulevard, its pair of pig statues out front for decades.
Before the Newton family, the home belonged to the parents of former Charleston Mayor Joe Riley for about 45 years.
Joseph “Buzzy” Newton III, a former chief executive officer (CEO) of Piggly Wiggly Carolina, bought the place in 1997 for $1.3 million.
Pig statues included.
Newton died in January 2025.
The house was listed that same month for $8.5 million, its first time on the market in almost 30 years.
The home went under contract on March 25 and closed a little over two months later.
The buyer, an entity called 74 Murray Blvd. LLC, paid cash.
Four bedrooms, five bathrooms, double piazzas and a screened porch overlooking the harbor came with the deal.
So did an elevator, a two-car garage, and 112 years of standing through Charleston hurricanes.
The sale closed at $7.2 million on June 8, a million dollars under the original asking price.
The pig statues are leaving with the seller, so the next owner starts without them.
8 Food Lion Deli and Bakery Buys South Carolina Shoppers Grab Every Week
Two brand-new Food Lion stores opened in South Carolina this year, on Two Notch Road in Elgin and West Georgia Road in Simpsonville, both with a self-service hot bar built in.
Neither one is the reason shoppers keep circling back to the deli counter every week.

8 South Carolina Small Towns Locals Love (and 3 Tourists Overrun)
One Bishopville man turned a castoff plant from the local dump into a hand-carved topiary garden that now pulls tour buses off the highway.
His story is just one stop on a list of South Carolina small towns that still feel like they belong to the people who live there, plus a few that don’t anymore.
