Premier

This is a fair-​sized convenience store. They have a lot more floor and shelf space than a few similar ones in the area. It’s also one of the weirder convenience stores I know of.
There are several chilled drinks cabinets as well as a frozen section, a magazine rack and a small hot food section. They sell beers and wines and have a few stronger drinks behind the checkouts, along with cigarettes and scratch cards. They have a small stand for baked goods like baguettes and croissants. They sell crisps, biscuits, chocolate, tinned and packaged goods, ready meals, as well as a very small amount of fresh fruit, veg and meat. They sell pretty much everything you’d expect — unless they’ve run out.
It’s weird because the shelves are almost always understocked. It’s weird because, for a convenience store, some items are amazingly cheap (for example, dish washer tablets for £1) and some bizarrely expensive. It’s weird because there are signs up saying they do hot food and they have a hot food stand, but I’ve never seen it being operated or anyone buying any. It’s weird because of the magazine selection — really, go see it, they have Cigar Afficionado and Pigeon Fancier’s Monthly alongside Galmour and Esquire.
The staff are friendly enough, and helpful too, although they’ve clearly been told to try to sell more lottery tickets because I get offered them every time I go in. Recently they fixed their card machine so they could take card payments again — it wasn’t really a problem before because there’s an ATM right outside the store.
I quite like it but it is definitely weird. I wish they’d fully stock the shelves — I might not ever need to shop anywhere else if they did.
