Section 01
The brief
Store registers will never fund a business, but the circuit is the best zero-prep filler in the game.
- Store robberies pay small amounts but need no setup at all
- The wanted level is the main cost
- They are best for very early progression
Section 02
Recommended route
Rob four or five stores on one loop while waiting for a sale timer or a friend's setup to finish.
- Rob stores clustered in one area to cut travel
- Lose the wanted level before the next robbery
- Stop doing them once you have a business running
Section 03
What good looks like
It is honest filler: small money, zero risk to your businesses, and never worth extending into a chase.
- Early cash without needing any property
