chain shops

I’m a snob. I don’t like chain shops. I think they show no imagination and are simply a triumph of boring commercialism over providing a unique experience as well as a financial transaction for customers. So I’m not impressed to see a new overpriced (in)convenience shop opening soon on Brunswick St.
