I really enjoy the 'supermarkets' of the small towns in the distant places in Chile and Argentina. At home we wouldn't even call them a supermarket, just the local store... but they seem to have everything.
Take this (pictured) 'supermarket' in Cochrane, a town on the Southern part of the Carretera Austral. It seemed to have everything you might need: groceries (of course), hardware (H bought nails), irons (pictured, they use wood stoves here so the irons are iron, the old type), wood stoves, chainsaws, mattresses, shoes, clothes, liquor, horseshoes, saddles ... I actually wander these supermarkets with complete interest.
