The One Stop shop on Crab Lane in Bilton was forced to close this morning after a break-in.
Store manager Adam Crawford said would-be thieves smashed the front door at about 2am but left empty-handed after activating security fog designed to disorientate intruders.
Speaking to the Stray Ferret at 11.30am, Mr Crawford said crime scene detectives had just left and he expected the store to reopen in about an hour. The door has been boarded up.
The convenience store, which includes a post office, serves a wide range of customers in Bilton and Knox.
One Stop, which is part of Tesco, has over 1,000 stores in the UK.
