- kbenson 7y agoA certain type of store should want that. I doubt a store that spend huge amounts of money in stocking their shelves with books will get as much out of it as a coffee shop. That said, my local B&N has a Starbucks inside (and a Peets 40 feet away directly across a small street), but I doubt they get more than a small fraction of the revenue from the Starbucks, and at around 4-5 times the floor space as the Peets.
- HillaryBriss 7y agowait. how do they make money from a person who doesn't buy anything but takes up a chair and table and consumes WiFi for free?
- stale2002 7y agoBecause even if someone doesn't intend to buy anything, and was only planning on going there for free WiFi, there is still a high chance that they will purchase something anyway.
