   Hello Richard!   
      
    >> A couple of young people came in to shop and said..   
      
    RF> Yes, but did they buy anything?   
      
   Fortunately, yes.  And they bought complete sets of a couple of     
   YA/fantasy stuff of which they said they could not find in a     
   much larger brick'n'mortar store elsewhere. And my copies were     
   relatively recent, or at least included the most recent release     
   in each series.  The pair walked out with about 5 hefty books     
   each.   
      
    RF> When I operated a brick and mortar store, I had lots of   
    RF> people walk in. They were all smiles and good words and   
    RF> nobody ever bought a thing. That is the reason why the   
    RF> store is online now hahaha.   
      
   They say a bookshop needs to offer other product such as     
   coffee, or gifts, or toys, etc.  Maybe a gift coupon for a free     
   horse ride would have worked for you!  LOL   
      
   But.. are you referring to your drug/health and geriatric     
   products shop?  Did you close the physical shop to the public     
   entirely now? I would suppose you still need a way to receive     
   shipments though.
