Local big box HW store (but one of their smallest stores) has closed their front doors on main street Monday to Friday. You know the doors near all the nice footpath seating.

Car brains ruining everything, and particularly main street.

Time for a letter to the council.

I’d argue that’s victim blaming.

Look I don’t like corpos and car brains either but it’s called Main St for a reason.

@Pregnenolone I have trouble seeing the giant corp as the victim

Would you prefer they just close entirely and only sell online, maybe on Amazon?

@jaybone I'd rather not have a 40m gap of nothing in the middle of main street.
