Every single Mattress Firm
I live in the middle of nowhere bumfuct Egypt. Randomly a Mattress Firm popped up in my town. Been there over a year now.
Immediate ??? was to be had.
I have NEVER seen a SINGLE VEHICLE in the parking lot. Not even staff inside. Wtf is this??
Then again there is a pretty heavy cartel family that moved here and bought the sheriff a hummer a while ago so. But they already have a couple well known washing stations for their cash so who knows?

A nice npr segment where they talked about mattress store because there are a bafflingly large number of them.
There are two Mattress Firms across the street from each other in my city. ???
This info doesn't dox me, because I have learned this is the case in multiple cities.
