Where can I buy Miss Vickie's potato chips in the Charlotte, NC area?

My wife and I took her visiting family to the local Mellow Mushroom for dinner a couple of weeks ago, and they offer Miss Vickie's potato chips with their sandwiches. My wife loves these chips so much that she ate the bag of my chips that I brought home because I wasn't hungry enough to eat them there.

So far, I know they're available there and at a nearby Jersey Mike's, but that's not really practical. Where can I find grocery stores, etc., in the Charlotte area that sell these chips? The Frito-Lay website offers a "Where to Buy" section that doesn't include Miss Vickie's.

I don't know about NC - but you can always get them over the inter-webs, from places like this.

They have them at Quiznos as well. I'm pretty sure Harris Teeter doesn't have them, not sure about other supermarkets.

My friend said she talked to a Frito-Lay guy once, and he said that Miss Vickie's are only available wholesale to restaurants such as Quizno's, etc. Annoying.

Thanks, guys... that's disappointing, I was hoping to surprise her with a big ol' bag of them one afternoon. Oh well.

I never realized it until now, but they're apparently a Canadian thing. Which is why you can by those chips in every grocery store, gas station and even vending machines up here. Next time you have a friend going to Canada, ask them to stock up for you

Or ask a Canadian mefite to send some to you?

I had an obsession with the Sea Salt variety a few months ago. Placing a quick order on Amazon gave me the fix I needed.
