It reminds me a little of the delis we have here, usually small in size and packed with numerous things. This one is extremely messy though ;) Cool shot.

Find the "Cash Only" sign?!! I can barely distinguish the foreground from the background. Great shot! Very nice cropping. Are Oreos dangerous over there? They seem to be caged in this shot.

I believe some stores (in the old days?) will extend credit to their good customers and let them pay when it is convenient for them to do so.
