Not everyone is going to agree with this statement, but sometimes it’s just easier and cheaper to take your book of coupons and sales ads and head to Walmart to do all of your shopping. With a coupon book in hand, the same is pretty much true when going to Kroger as well. However, there is just something about shopping at a cozy general store that feels right. The staff is friendly, the products are usually more interesting, and sometimes the prices are even better. Here are 6 charming general stores around Indiana worth checking out.
