Reply to comment by [deleted] in Springfield desperately needs more than one 24 hour pharmacy. by Digital-Latte

Fuck yes. I work until 11p. I'm an asocial night owl. If there was a grocery store open until 12am or 1am, they'd know me by name because I'd be in there two or three times a week.

Yeah, before COVID every Walmart was open 24 hours. Even the neighborhood one up the street from me.

Not all. The neighborhood market on Grand & Campbell has never been 24 hours, even before Covid.

In the 1980's I worked until 11pm and could grocery shop in Nixa after work. I think this area goes backward.

I’m out in California now. It’s the same here now. I’ve traveled to a good couple dozen states since Covid hit. It’s the same in all of them. Outside of maybe NYC (the city that literally never sleeps), it’s nearly impossible to find a 24-hour supermarket anymore. Albertsons near me in California closes at 11pm. Jewel-Oscos in Chicago close at midnight. Even in the densest parts of Los Angeles, Ralph’s closes at 1am (better than 11pm, but not 24 hours).
