don't understand how there are multiple mattress stores in every strip mall. How often are people buying mattresses?

Fred there is a real good Freconomics podcast on it.
It's pretty much that the mark up on mattresses are so crazy high that they are able to operate

This is a good one, you never see a mattress store filled with customers, but there are huge profit margins are mattresses so maybe if they sell... 5 mattresses a week they are doing good. Maybe? But it's not like something that people buy everyday.

Radio Shack. Although I don't think for much longer. They stayed around longer than I expected.

Mattress stores. They're always empty. Always.
Edit: too late, I guess.

HOW HAVE YOU NEVER USED A DRY CLEANERS? Do you only wear affliction tees and cargo shorts?

I have a bag that I hang on my front door and the dry cleaners picks it up on Tuesdays and returns it on Thursdays with a new empty bag. Dry cleaners are awesome.
I see a few more travel agencies than one would expect. I'd think that business model would be dead but my 20,000 town in MS has two still in business.

Apparently you have never been in one. They stay packed. Asian massage parlors, on the other hand. Those almost have to be a front for laundering operations.

They also do not keep any inventory. What you see on the floor is all they have there.
