Give it a few years and those shops would be dead anyway - sadly
Small towns here tend to build large shopping centers near town border, which just hungers out local businesses
No need for COVID to accomplish that
Edit: and it’s not just about America, but about the whole world.
Wanna tell me, that Walmart planned a coup, just for US centric sellings and the also the rest of the world stood still?
Yeah man I know it just sucks to have it happen that fast. My neighbor owned and operated the local bike shop in our town for almost 30 years. You’re right it was gonna close anyway but covid made it happen way quicker and the town is worse off in the end. The bike shop was a HUGE part of this town and now it’s gone. It just is what it is.
We didn’t need COVID for that
