Collection of items to fill department store (Walmart style)?

EightiesIsEnough

Quite a while ago, I downloaded a free Department Store prop on ShareCG, and it comes fully equipped with shelves and department signage.  The store has the branding Cada.

But one thing I am looking to purchase or download a free version of, is some 3D merchandise items covering various departments, like in a Walmart store.  Are there any packages with merchandise I can acquire, whether paid for or free?

That should take care of the clothing departments.

And this vendor, https://www.daz3d.com/maclean , should fill many other departments with the Everyday series (Everyday Groceries, Everyday Tools, Everyday Crockery, etc.).

All paid, but they go on sale frequently.

So we got clothing items and supermarket items to fill a store.  So now I'd like to ask, is there a collection of electronics items that could fill a section of a Walmart style store?

Thanks.  Though some of the props could be used for a furniture outlet.

Video games, small appliances, and some of the electronics (i.e. Hi-Fi, HD TVs) could fit well for a discount store chain.  Also, what would be a discount store chain without toys and board games?

I learned in another thread that the free department store I downloaded a while ago could be used as a supermarket.  I have plenty of items that I could add labels for, and create my own labels.

Thanks Fae & Leana for linking my stuff.

Just like to point out that all my products come with templates, so making your own textures for canned goods or whatever is pretty easy.

One other idea you could explore is to render a bunch of items (a can of tomatoes + 20 Instances, for example), then place the render on a primitive (a plane or cube) in the supermarket shelf. You'd need to make sure the lighting and shadows match your scene, but if you can pull it off, you'd save a huge amount on resources. You could probably stock an entire aisle with a couple of dozen planes/renders instead of 1000s of cans.

The really peculiar thing about the Everyday Groceries packages is that there is no box of cereal, despite being a very popular product in North America, yet there appears to be pancake syrup.

There's a cereal box in this pack: https://www.daz3d.com/widdershins-grocery-pack

^ Thanks.  I got it yesterday.

A collection of retail boxes would be an instant buy for me. TV's, laptops, external drives and such.
Small appliances, art supplies...
I tried photographing some boxes at a local Big Box. I was going to apply them to your Everyday Morphing Primitives.
Store security got a bit upset with me.

Hi Petercat,

A set of product boxes is already on my to-do list, and in fact, I was about to make a start on it recently when I saw a product called Boxes hit the store. It's different from what I had in mind - I was thinking more along your lines - actual product boxes for a variety of goods - but I decided to go ahead with something else for now, and leave that one for later.

So, apologies, but it'll be a while before I get to it. I know I'm slow, but I do get there in the end. LOL.

PS - Store security tend to be way too serious in their interpretation of what constitutes a threat!!

PPS - Without encouraging anyone to hijack the thread, you can always throw in any suggestions you might like to see for boxes and I'll take notes.

I know it's too late for this year, but some "aftermath" props would be nice.
Big wads of used wrapping paper and ribbons.
Open packages with scraps of wrapping paper still taped to them, with matching toys.
Empty battery packages, of course.

Personally, I would LOVE to see a modern model train kit w/box, and some add-on track kits with switches (points), crossings, various radius curves and various length straights, maybe even flex-track.
Add-on different engines and cars, too.
There are some available on Rendo, but the curve radius is too large for a model train layout.
But then, I'm a model train buff.
