What is thriving on your high street?

If got a spare floor in a shop with its own entrance and window - furnish me with your ideas for it.
Traditional retail is struggling but unique and experience shopping ideas are doing well.
What are you seeing thriving on the high street where you are? Let me know and I’ll rip it off.
The best idea gets a 1% discount on all purchases for 1 day.

Last time I was in Brighton I couldn't believe how many barbers/gents hairderssing shops there were. Almost one every 8 or 9 shops. Then I walked past one to go and get some groceries. The waft of hash and youngsters scarfing pills gave me a slight inkling as to how they get by. Thought they all looked a bit too fucking busy. Interesting high street though

Our one does records too. They can be a bit pricy sometimes.
I also use the St Clare Hospice shop which has some really unusual stuff in it and is really cheap, they also do a fantastic job.

All depends on location tho?
In this market people want a shop like that for cheap rent to pay the business rates and bills.
The rates in some shit areas are a killer! more than the rent
