Simplified Meaning:

When someone says they went to a general store and couldn't buy anything specific, it's a way of saying that the store has a little bit of everything but not exactly what they might be looking for. Imagine going to a store hoping to find a particular brand of soup, but the store only has a variety of other products, just not that one. These kinds of stores are useful for general shopping needs, but they might not have specialized items. It's like how a friend who knows a bit about many topics might not have deep knowledge in one particular area. If you need very specific advice, you might need to ask an expert instead. This can be a reminder to go to the right places or people when searching for something very particular to avoid frustration.
