      I hate them because they’ve turned my 5 minute trip to buy some eggs and milk, into a 45 minute odyssey because there’s always a line of motherfuckers doing money transfers and paying for their utilities.

        I’m going to ask an ignorant question here. Do the people paying utility bills at places like this not have internet, or bank accounts, or debit cards, or a mix of these?

          I worked for the company that did their loyalty program, and then it was told to me that many mexicans don’t trust the banks enough to go there, and prefer these “independent” shops as an alternative.

      That’s exactly why I buy my cat food at the pharmacy across the street. What a world we live in. 🙃
