Shri Sai Nath Kirana Store

Our store, Shri Sai Nath Kirana Store, is at Plot No. 1699 in Vijay Nagar. We are right by the Dewas Naka Bus Stop, so we see a lot of people every day. Most of them are just waiting for their bus or coming home from work. It’s a small place, packed with all the usual groceries people need. We have bags of rice, lentils, spices, and all that stuff sitting around. Sometimes the delivery guys leave the crates right in the middle of the aisle, and I have to move them so people don’t trip. I start early in the morning to get things ready before the first bus commuters arrive. It’s nice because you get to know the locals by name. They come in for a pack of tea or some sugar and stay for a quick chat about what’s happening in the area. The shelves are a bit old, and the paint is peeling in some corners, but it works for us. We don’t have a computer system, just a thick notebook where I write everything down. The fan on the ceiling makes a clicking noise that I’ve stopped noticing lately. It’s a busy little corner of Dewas Naka. We just try to keep the staples in stock so nobody has to go too far for their daily needs. It’s a simple life running a kirana store here and we have been at this plot for a good while now.
