IMO Other than that Mobil gas/convienence store 'THAT NEVER PLOWS ITS LOT" there isn't another REAL LIQUOR store.
And this group would insure success of this adventure :wink:
Cordially yours is located at the Killington deli on Rt 4... You can buy liquors, beer and wine there... Killington Market on the Killington Road has beer and wine, Glazes Wine Shop sells wine, and the Mobil has beer and wine... highly doubt they need another package store, not to mention that a large percentage of K patrons go out to party and love spending the big bucks on those expensive drinks! :D
Correct,nobody NEEDS another package store HOWEVER if the building is shared by a attractive blond Women who does Dog training and grooming next door just think of the potential> :wink:

might wanna consider strategic comma placement before sending this one to press...other than for skirtchaser, I really can't see dogs in leather bikinis being a big draw....

Its not glamourous, but with a little luck (labor under correct knowledge), after a few years it would be relatively viable and would produce a comfortable income.

I don't know what kind of engineer you are, but another possibility would be some sort of professional business - similar to an accountant or lawyer. thats a lot of work, but it can be really lucrative if you're good.
Believe it or not, I think there's zoning against that sort of thing on the access road...

Believe it or not, Comfort Inn sells Condo shares. Maybe thats how they circumvent the franchise tag.

Killington Holiday Rentals are still our rental agents - no change there. The only thing that changed is the property manager.

At least that is some good news. Wasn't up for another changeover like the last time. Thought I might have to start looking for new digs.

guess i should have read this whole thing before replying, but hey i'm in a hurry now. i'm only supposted to live to 72 if all goes correctly!

As far as a business op, what about a decent sandwich shop. You only have the Killington market and they aren't all that good, sun up bakery and Killington Deli (Cliff's Deli)
Seems like a low overhead operation. make all your own breads and salads. I mean how much could it cost to make a sandwich compared to what you could charge for it. just an idea

Keep in mind that being the new kid on the block, as stormin said, is very difficult around here.
