Just a few steps away, you can buy various variants of your favorite instant noodles, whether it's regular packaging or jumbo. It's a lifesaver, right?

Buying Gas When It Suddenly Runs Out in the Middle of Cooking

Even though the gas cylinder has an indicator of how much gas is left, but admit it, you rarely check this one, right? You had the intention to cook a trending dish on social media. Suddenly, the stove turned off because the gas ran out in the middle of the cooking process. Luckily, the grocery store next to my house sells gas cylinders so you can immediately continue the cooking process that has already started. No need to bother looking far away!

Can Borrow Money When You're in a Pinch at the End of the Month

Becoming a regular customer at the grocery store next to my house also brings its own privileges, you know. What else if not being able to borrow money first when you're running out of cash at the end of the month? Yup, the neighbor's grocery store can indeed be relied upon to buy sudden needs when the end of the month balance has not been filled with monthly salary. As long as you diligently pay once the salary has entered, for sure the grocery store next door won't hesitate to give approval for borrowing again.
