      Not really… the dollar store model is explicitly designed to completely take over small town mom and pop stores. Most other grocery chains can’t and don’t operate in those areas.

        You don’t think Kroger and Albertson’s/Safeway didn’t do exactly the same thing to small town mom and pop stores?

        At least in my corner of the US, the majority of mom and pop stores were shut down because of the larger chains.

        Oh and happy cake day!
