BTW Is it an American thing to call a store a "Corner Store" when it's clearly not on a corner?

I'll see if I can find anything...

Where I grew up, you bought beer, wine, and liquor at a "packy."

"Corner store" is an urban thing. Many convenience stores in cities are located on corners. You'd leave your apartment to "run to the corner store" for milk or cigs or whatever.

Thanks, yeah but, if you look at the name of the store next to the Farm it says that Store is called "Corner Store" and it's not on the corner :)

"Corner Store" in this area is a proper name associated with the Valero gas stations, part of CST brands:

Yeah, "corner store" sort of became synonymous with "neighborhood store." Corner store sounds more folksy, I guess.
