TG&Y was a five and dime, or chain of variety stores and larger discount stores in the United States.At its peak, there were more than 900 stores in 29 states. Starting out during the Great Depression in rural areas and eventually moving into cities, TG&Y stores were firmly embedded in southern culture as modern-day general stores with a bit of everything.
