Cash Converters International makes cash advances in return for used merchandise, including electronics, jewelry, musical instruments, tools, and more, which it resells to the public. The second-hand goods retailer and pawnbroker operates about 500 franchised and company-owned stores in its home country of Australia and another 20 countries worldwide, including Canada, the US, and the UK. The company also offers customers cash advances on their paychecks. Stores operate under the Cash Converters banner. Texas-based EZCORP acquired a 30% stake in the firm in 2009.

Costco Wholesale UK Limited operates about 20 members-only warehouse clubs in England and Scotland. The company is owned by the #1 US wholesale club operator Costco Wholesale, which has been gradually adding UK locations. The big-box stores sell appliances, consumer electronics, health and beauty products, groceries, and more. Membership fees are similar to those in the US. The company has been able to grow faster than competitors, including Wal-Mart-owned ASDA and Britain's #1 retailerTesco, because its status as a warehouse-club chain exempts it from zoning rules other retailers face when opening new stores. Costco Wholesale UK ultimately aims to grow to 40 stores and is exploring entering the Irish market.

Costcutter Supermarkets Group owns or franchises some 1,600 supermarkets and convenience stores under the Costcutter and Costcutter Express banners throughout the UK and Northern Ireland. Smaller Costcutter Express stores (averaging about 1,000 sq. ft.) sell gasoline. Costcutter holds about a 4.6% share of the rapidly-consolidating convenience store market. The company had agreed to merge with Nisa-Today's, a buying group of some 700 independent retailers, but the deal collapsed. (Costcutter is the largest member of the Nisa-Today's buying group.) Founded in 1986 by its Chairman Colin Graves, Costcutter is owned by the Bibby Line Group.

Cumberland Farms now operates a network of about 600 convenience stores and gas stations in about a dozen eastern seaboard states from Maine to Florida. The company operates its own grocery distribution and bakery operations to supply its stores, as well. Cumberland owns a two-thirds limited partnership in petroleum wholesaler Gulf Oil LP, giving it the right to use and license Gulf trademarks in Delaware, New Jersey, New York, most of Ohio, Pennsylvania, and the New England states. The first convenience-store operator in New England, Cumberland was founded in 1939 by Vasilios and Aphrodite Haseotes. The Haseotes' descendants, including chairman Lily Haseotes Bentas, own the company.

Cumberland General Store markets items that would be appropriate for a rural home or farm in the 19th century. The company sells appliances, hardware, toys, kitchen supplies, and other products (that typically require little or no electricity) from a single store in Alpharetta, Georgia, as well as through its well-known catalog and online. Customers include back-to-nature enthusiasts, residents of areas without electricity, and producers of period movies and television shows. In 2005 the store and company moved from Crossville, Tennessee, to its current location in Georgia.
