simple economics.
On its own there would be little or no commercial gain in doing something like this. It would have to staffed six days a week, heating and lighting, rates and rent. Approximate cost of £500 per week. So the shop would HAVE to make a thousand a week at 50% GP just to break even.
However, it would be possible to make more money than we do already just be virtue of having a presence. I would imagine the lottery would make a lot more if there was somewhere to go with your money. We would sell more stock, we would sell more tickets, we would probably increase away travel as well.
Its all ifs, buts and maybes though so would never happen.
Unless someone bought a shop for us and allowed us to use it rent free. The owner would benefit only from the bricks and mortar long term value of the building.
