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.

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

Best answer: 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.

Response by poster: 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.
