    Those fucking candy shops in London. You know the ones.

    I’m sorry, I’m an ignorant American who’s never been across the pond. I’m also confused by further comments calling these shops “American.”

    Could anyone explain?

      They’re in very valuable retail locations in the city centre, they sell American brands of candy at unreasonably high prices, and I have never seen a single customer in any of them buy anything.

        I’ve seen one opposite a cinema, cheaper than buying your sweets inside so it gets plenty of custom. It was the only one around though.
