  But they are much less prominent in Germany than in USA!

  And typically Mediterranean people prefer buying their groceries in small corner shops that usually have some vegetables on shelves on the street in front of the shop.

      That is so true. There is a surreal feel of knowing where your money is going. I love buying at the market here in Malawi than in these slightly more formal shops. The till attendants do greet but yeah they lack the enthusiasm of a vendor selling their merchandise.
