Maybe this is an opportunity for the return of the family owned convenience store?
Comment on Dollar stores are shutting down across America. They did this to themselves
EssentialCoffee@midwest.social 7 months agoThe Family Dollar is the closest store with basic essential groceries (bread, milk, etc) to where a friend’s parent lives. The actual grocery stores are 30+ minutes away.
This just contributes to the increase of food deserts in some areas.

The dollar stores themselves are part of the problem. They are huge national chains that helped to push out the smaller grocery stores that originally served those communities.
