The subject of this story - El Corte Ingles [0] - is the the most diverse store I've every been in... they have everything from designer clothing to BBQ's. Think Amazon but with groceries, banking, travel agents, books for school, insurance, etc. Many goods and services you wouldn't find in a Walmart (some possibly at Costco). And their "house brands" aren't too bad they're fairly decent quality especially for the price.

> Think Amazon...

Interesting analogy, since Amazon also has its own airline (albeit for cargo rather than passengers)
