-coffee shop is selling off display racks and equipment on a SoWal thread.
-video store is selling off merchandise (can now download Netflix movies directly to your TV screen)
- real estate office -- not sure, about that but the number of Realtors registered with Emerald Coast Assoc of Realtors dropped from 3200+, down to around 1500 recently.
-consignment furniture store -- don't know about that one.
- science toy store -- opened and closed (though i liked it and the idea)
-candy store -- doesn't seem to get much business
-cup cake shop -- like the idea, but have only heard complaints about paying $8 plus tip for two cup cakes.
Consignment store - the first one is a hit, the second one just opened, so, the market is probably saturated now.
Honestly, I'd be stumped to say what I think would work in those spots. Publix is going to carry liquor, so not a liquor store. I suppose a nail place would do okay, I don't know how the others on 98 do.
Maybe a barber/hair cutting place?
The only business I have ever really missed around here is a used paperback exchange, but there's not enough money in that to pay the rent there and he location is sort of far from the beach. Also, our library is like a free paperback exchange, so.....
I'm stumped.
