Etymology
店 combines 广 (building on a cliff or dwelling) with 占, which likely contributes the sound and may suggest occupying a space, together indicating a shop or store.
Meaning mnemonic
Under a roof 广, a fortune teller 占 sets up a stall to sell readings: that stall is a shop.
Reading mnemonic
For テン, imagine ten shops lined up under one big roof: ten -> テン, and each shop sells something different.
