i work at a bank, and there's a restaurant owner who brings in so much cash, despite his place having terrible food. then again, old people may just like it

There's a gas station just outside of town where the price is always ridiculous. It's not uncommon for it to be over a dollar more per gallon (about 36¢ CAD/€0,23 more per litre) than the gas station just one block away. I don't know how it stays in business if they're not doing something sketchy.

There’s a video rental shop in Houston. Don’t understand how they’ve stayed in business for so long.

Bakery across from prisoners rights office I used to volunteer at. Went to get a loaf to make a sandwich once. Open shelving all around, mostly bare except for a few dusty loaves. Ask this big, very white man with a head like a four-slice toaster, for said loaf and he goes in the back and comes out with a bag of Wonderbread rofl.

There's a donut shop near me that's only open from 1am to 10am. If that's not suspicious then I don't know what is.

There was a printing shop where I used to live. This was back in 2017ish. I lived there 3 years, and would walk by it all the time bcz i lived close by. I never saw a single customer go in there in the three years I lived there. They were money laundering.

Used to live in a street with 7 barber shops, in a town known for drugs smuggling. It was safe to walk there at night though surpisingly.

There's a place ik that sells VAST pizzas - a slice of that stuff is maybe 70cm long - and they somehow sell each slice for $5. Definitely suspicious profit margins.

There’s a shoe store near me. It stands alone in an almost non walkable part of a street. I never see a car in the parking lot. It’s always open and it has been there for, like, 15 years or more. It’s impossible that that store is profitable.

Rug stores. There’s around twelve of them along a couple miles of road. How many rug stores could one city possibly need?

I feel this way about mattress stores. Can't prove it either.
