No doubt about it Mooroo7.

It's like a Scooter Store but with losses. If you have oodles of coin and / or are self generating in resources, this will help you level up.

Assuming you have the resource producers (as you say) and you work your village hard enough to do say, 20 short recipes and 1 medium per day, you could pay back the store in 8 days, based on recent averages.

However, this comes at a big price - and that is the land your resource producers and houses take up that could be used by more profitable assets - e.g. salad stores.

As well, you'd be a bit limited in the number of these you can have if you want to "self-finance". Any extra store would generate double the XP (732,000 per day based on the above) but there comes a time when you have to bite the bullet and buy the inventory. When this happens, the store turns a loss of 37,000 per day, one of the largest in the village (behind the Mystic and Arcane Fire Stores) but perhaps not too bad if you have other assets that generate lots of income (e.g. high value decorations)
