Tobacco products, magazines, cards, newspapers, lottery tickets, check cashing, snacks and soda pop, anything but the kitchen sink you can get at the State News and Variety Store. These types of stores may look "shady" but I get good service here, even better than some of the more "fru fru" establishments downtown. It is small and cramped, sometimes the line is long but it's worth it for those quick purchases (no one is in here with a shopping buggy full of stuff.) Open from early morning until late in the evening.
