We had a VERY small (700 sq ft) family owned grocery store - "Julies" - which was operated out of the front of their home and strategically placed next to the public park/pool. Immediatlely inside the front door was the candy counter and the pickle barrel - both my fav's (whether I bought candy or a pickle with my nickle on any given day was a constant guessing game with my friends!). She also had a great deli counter and the usual grocery staples.
