Corner store food is so expensive like dang I just want some junk food so I can go back home and rot in my room
Over for cornerstorecelsThose places are usually privately owned shops run by local family who buys or makes deals with companies to sell stuff their but in order to make a profit they mark up prices. That's why gallon of milk at grocery store could cost you 2.99 but at corner store it's like 5 dollarss
corner store near me is like less than a quarter mile of a walk but their prices are so bad (burritos pretty tasty for the price honestly) that i usually end up just going to the actual grocery store who is like 3/4 a mile awayOver for cornerstorecels
How are they ever selling anything if it’s so expensive?corner store near me is like less than a quarter mile of a walk but their prices are so bad (burritos pretty tasty for the price honestly) that i usually end up just going to the actual grocery store who is like 3/4 a mile away
People looking for something quickly who don't want to or can't drive to the store, they don't need to sell much since their operating costs are low (usually the owner or their family doing all the work) and their profit margins are high. They exist mainly in so called "food desert" neighborhoods where grocery stores are far away.How are they ever selling anything if it’s so expensive?
Doesn’t seem far away for you though.People looking for something quickly who don't want to or can't drive to the store, they don't need to sell much since their operating costs are low (usually the owner or their family doing all the work) and their profit margins are high.

???Doesn’t seem far away for you though.
I meant OP lol. 1/4 mile vs 3/4 of a mile
They mostly made their sells from their butcher shop area, and the main convenient like store area. Most people went in there to buy a bag of cheetos or candy. Or something. They also sold brooms and other cleaning and house supply like things. They shut down or sold out a year or 2 ago i think. They also dealt with a lot of grey area items, many foods and things not allowed in the US. Kinder eggs for instance lol. And huge amounts of Candy and snacks that appear to originate from mexico or that were in spanish and mainly marketed to spanish children.How are they ever selling anything if it’s so expensive?
