Americans re-discovering convenience stores before they all got transformed into 7-Eleven due to big corporations. How cute.

Before Amazon existed there was a thing called "Librairies" too.

America is a big place. NYC has a corner store on every corner.

Aren't these delis? At least when I used to live in Brooklyn we used to call them that. Often they had signs "Deli and Grocery" or something like that.

A dépanner and a bodega are basically the same. Wonder what other regional names there are for them.

Couche-Tard owns Circle-K and is looking to buy 7-Eleven. It’s literally the worlds largest dép/convenience store chain

Québec people are so creative with the French language, love it.

Why not use the standard French word for it "droguerie"? Dépanneur or Couche-tard does have a lot more charm to it though, agreed.
