Something that strikes me as interesting is the /rural/ corner store. These I have seen in many small towns, they usually can make sandwiches and the like to go, but also have a deli attached to that to buy meat by the pound. They have frozen cases and dairy cases (not exhaustive but a few items) and then some basic fresh fruit (apples. Bananas, etc) and some canned goods. Interestingly they almost all seem to have their own dvd rental service as well. Not a red box. But one actually run by them.
