Ah well, console yourself with the fact that lower food prices is about the only advantage to living in rural areas... especially rural north-central Michigan. The super discount stores (Walmart, Meijers, etc) are all about 35 miles away in any direction; even a regular grocery store in the nearest town is 12 miles from me; movies are 40 miles, A real shopping mall (Penney's, etc) is 40 miles. Worst of all, out-of-state family and friends don't want to visit because the nearest big-city airport is 150 miles away.
Food is cheap, but it costs a lot in gas to go anywhere and nobody wants to visit. Count your blessings!!
