Hi,

Suppose you're given the following tables called 'orders' and 'order_info'. The table 'orders' shows revenue values for unique orders along with the associated channel ('online' or 'in_store') while the table 'order_info' shows the order's ID along with its location.

Table: orders

order_id	channel	date	month	revenue
1	online	2020-09-01 00:00:00	9	100
2	online	2020-09-03 00:00:00	9	125
3	in_store	2020-10-11 00:00:00	10	208
4	in_store	2020-08-21 00:00:00	8	80
5	online	2020-08-13 00:00:00	8	200
6	online	2020-08-16 00:00:00	8	210
7	in_store	2020-08-16 00:00:00	8	205
8	online	2020-10-11 00:00:00	10	215
9	online	2020-08-16 00:00:00	8	203
10	in_store	2020-09-01 00:00:00	9	400
11	online	2020-08-01 00:00:00	8	107

Table: order_info

order_id	location
1	NYC
2	NYC
3	LAX
4	LAX
5	SEA
6	AUS
7	LON
8	LAX
9	BLD
10	SEA
11	AUS

Using these tables, write a SQL query to return the 2 locations with the lowest 'in_store' revenue generated. You can assume that each order has a unique revenue value, but you should be able to highlight the implications of ties in revenue values and how you would handle that.
