What a very very charitable idea and definitely helps out a dying institution the Mom & Pop groceries on the street.
I was admittedly curious to the total amount but can see the discretion used in not revealing it.
I'm actually moved (feel good) by this really terrific idea.Imagine walking into a store and buying everything. On 20th of May a group of artists did exactly that. The artists chose Hercules Fancy Grocery in West Village, NYC to stage the project when they became aware that Hercules was at risk of losing his business.
