I think it's that it emphasizes mundane trivial things like those three stores, implying that there's something worthy and subtly-distinctive about the stores' operation and mental lifestyle attitude in comparison to their real-life counterparts - or possibly that real-life mundaneness is actually more worthy and interesting than people give it credit for. That lifestyle distinction is made more definite (yet no more explicit) by the image being set in a different time. It implies that work and routine life is not necessarily in contradiction with leisure and beauty.
