Locating Major Stores - Such As Safeway Or Walmart.

When traveling with our RV, we look for major food stores along the way to our next destination, which is an important part of our usage. We bring our (older) Garmin to locate food stores, which our XL 340 can't seem to do when "food stores" is keyed in. We would rather carry only the TomTom as it's great for directing us to known destinations. Are we doing something wrong?
