    He's covered, well-stocked with Doritios and dip.
    You might want to consider some Frito's Scoops and bean dip too. That was always a nice treat when staying up late .... studying.

    Nice job all around, and good luck ! :smile:

    Looking good, Even looks like there's enough room for someone in a wheelchair to get around. I can't tell you how many times I gone to a store to get something only to find out there's no room to get around or even get through the front door.

    It's looking good and I hope it generates profit for you right out of the gate.

    Are you in a "safe" area as far as convenience store robberies go and do you have a policy for your employees to follow. Does PA allow for concealed carry where you can carry when you are personally in the store?

    You're well stocked for a "college" town. All the right midnight "munchies" and more. If I'm ever your way, I'll try to drop in. I'm originally from Eastern Pa. But we often travel across the state to visit my wife's relatives in Chicago.


    Everything looks great!

    I know you probably have it already but I didn't see it in the photos. Did you get any of that hangover cure stuff? I spoke to a guy that owns the local liquor store and he said he sells 150/200 BOXES (6 per box) weekly! Yea weekly. He pays about .50$ and sells for about $2.99.

    Looks good man, carry on.
    Too much **** to list....

    Couple of things should add being that you cater to college students. Nodoz,a HUGE selection of blunts (you'll need more than a couple boxes...lol),condoms,a cooler full of quick to heat up items like burritos,burgers,biscuits,anything that you can pop in a microwave and heat up in 2 minutes or less. Also, aspirin,ibuprofen,tampons,pads,midol,paper towels,toilet paper, and the list goes on and on. Maybe I missed it in the pics but Ramen Noodles is a must imo, packages and the kind in the cup you just add water to. Looks good in there. Nice and organized for sure. And with good tunes your place will be the goto store to grab a quick something. Nice job man.
    Everything matters. That is all.
    Money cannot buy happiness, but it sure can buy a bad **** boat to pull up along side it though.

    Nice store. It is very clean too. You even have an ATM machine for the students to drain Mommy and Daddy's bank account.

    I got the tampons,pads,trash bags,and I do have the ramen cups and regular ones.
    As far as the heat up and serve items Im putting together a made to order sandwich shop behind the ice cream freezer with a turbo air 48"sandwich prep table and a counter top warmer for meatballs,pork bbq,grilled chicken and some precooked burgers if I can find some decent ones.I will put some frozen tombstone and red baron pizzas in the IC freezer though.

    How are you price tagging everything? individual stickers? There needs to be some sort of right in front pricing so people are rifling through product to see what things cost......

    Also, for the cooler, you'll want to get the drink slots for the 1L beverages too......if one of those knock over, goodbye everything next to it (especially with everything sitting on grates).
