Meager amounts of groceries are behind the counter of this less-than-super-market in your own neighborhood, which is tended to by less-than-helpful staff.

       So, the shopping carts could be much smaller, the aisles narrower and all the checkouts are "4 items or less".

       Reminds me of a class activity I did in Pre-AP/Pre-IB World Geography to learn about communism:   

       We all made 'cars' by tracing a design, coloring them, and cutting them out. After 5 minutes, she would all pay us the same, regardless of how many sub-yugo quality cars we made. Then we could go to the 'store' with our money, and no matter how much money everyone had, they each got the same amount of bread(hard candy), but after the first 7 people, the store just 'ran out'. She told us the USSR wasn't much different.
