Same here on stores. They have a solid border along the other side
where the Kroger is. You have to go about 1/4 mile up and make a
U-turn to get there, then on the way home, you have to take a longer
route back.

Doable if there is a really good sale, but not normal for a quick trip.
I am sure others shop there because the side of the street matches them
better.
