The cost of living is continuing to creep up and a local shop can seem like a lifeline for those not wanting to travel for groceries. But one village almost lost its local when a fire broke out back in May.
The Rhos-on-Sea shop in North Wales, which opened three years ago, was initially thought to be closed for a few days. But as the extent of the fire became clear, a few days went to five months, reports NorthWalesLive.
To help maintain a service for the local community, a temporary pop-up shop was opened in the car park. It has been called the smallest Co-op in the UK.
