Post your bizarre store/service combinations you've seen here.
In Sarasota, Fl. I remember a store called "Video/Bail Bond"
Here in town we have one that sells vacuum cleaners and bait.

8. Golf/Barbecue outside of Hot Springs, Arkansas
You can buy a new club and a sliced beef sandwich at the same time, then sit and eat while wacthing the redneck-yuppies on the driving range.

GREAT barbecue sauce. Last time I was there I smuggled back a quart-sized mason jar through the baggage check. The security in Little Rock took my explanation of "They don't have good barbecue sauce out West" just fine, like they heard it all the time. When I transferred in Phoenix, I thought TSA was going to give me a body cavity search.
