A Satartia resident opened a self-serve snack shack where people pay with donations.
One customer with no money mopped the floor. Other surprises have materialized.
Store owner donates profits to two remaining churches in the tiny village.
SATARTIA If you walk into Tiny Town Snack Shack in Mississippi s tiniest town, you won t find a clerk to wait on you.
Want a cold drink, sausage biscuit or farm-fresh eggs? That s not a problem, but you won t find any prices. Whatever customers choose to leave in a basket that sits on a counter will do.
What started out as a way to fill a void in the South Delta village of Satartia when the only convenience store in town closed for a year is more than a story about cheese crackers and a root beer. It s a story about neighbors helping neighbors in times of need. It s a place that even inspired a thief to return money he stole from the basket.
