GENERAL STORE
Howdy. Welcome to our old west town series!
General stores usually have a wide variety of items, but here at Goodness Nose, we only have candles. But they are good ones! You can smell' em all over the house when you light 'em up! Why, I can smell these candles before I even open the box when the pony express brings me a shipment! And that's sayin' a lot! Have you ever smelled them ponies?
Here's a bit of info I read about general stores over at that Wikipedia place:
In Australia, Canada and the United States, a store named or subtitled "general store" is traditionally a retailer located in a small town or in a rural area. It carries a broad selection of merchandise crammed into a relatively small space where people from the town and surrounding rural areas come to purchase all their general goods. The store carries routine stock and obtains special orders from warehouses.read more
