There's a furniture store that is never open that I go by a lot which I find odd, but I don't know if it's shady. We literally do have Mafia in my city though.

You just reminded me of one store near my workplace, it sells tableware and rather pretty so I asked them what's their schedule and they just said that they don't know ¯_(ツ)_/¯ how are you even a business if you don't know when do you start and finish your work
That's really strange. Like why have a store? This place is office furniture so maybe it's just occasionally used as a showroom but I go by several times a week and have never seen it open.
My poor Rust Belt town, the downtown is slowly turning into a tourist trap. There was a very chichi high end retail children's store that has now been rebranded......using a non profit foundation's name...all owned by the same people. No one goes in or out, no one seems to work there. No one ever makes deliveries there of any kind, although they purport to be part of a non profit dedicated to sending care packages to comfort children in cancer hospitals. None of the clothing or toys ever change or get moved around, they're not even making an effort.
If there is, they got better opsec then me posting about this.
There are a couple of popular restaurants that are cash only. They even have an ATM inside if you forget
Not wanting to pay 3% of all your sales to visa/Mastercard doesn’t make you a “front”
