    Blackouts are a thing.

    Don’t most stores have electronic tills now?
    Unless they have backup power they won’t be able to sell anything during a blackout.

      They are able to sell you stuff. They normally won’t do it, because it totally wrecks havoc with their stock tracking and taxes. But if there is a longer outtage, a supermarket can totally sell you stuff for cash.
