Money mart is to financial services what Shoppers Dog Fart is to Big Box Barf.

Agreed. I think Shoppers Dog Fart and Money Mart are the two most commonly seen stores in ugly urban landscapes posted here.

My favourite is the drive-through Cashmoney in Hamilton

There's also a drive-though beer store which is rather ironic in my opinion
