Interior

The interior of Barg'N-Mart has orange walls and a metal floor. When a customer first walks in, there is a cash register to the right. There is also an express lane as well. In "Goodbye, Krabby Patty?," it is revealed that there is a freezer section within the store.

The name is a play on the word "bargain" and the pirate phrase "argh!," the latter being in reference to the pirate-themed exterior of the store.
