Tins of peaches and creamed rice pudding are priced at two shillings and three pence, rhubarb at one shilling and a penny, and prunes at one shilling. The women, dressed in cardigans and suits, are deep in conversation as they examine the shelves filled with a variety of goods. A basket sits at their feet, filled with items such as sugar, flour, and tea. The scene is further enhanced by the display of wire baskets and the intricate tiling on the floor.

The store offered a vast selection of goods, from canned foods and cereals to packets of flour and bottles of cocoa.
