Sneaky Ways Dollar Stores Get You to Spend More Money
My favorite thing to buy at the Dollar stores are greeting cards. $.50 or $1 compared to $4-9 somewhere else 👍
Yeah and like gift bags for when you're late for a partay!
I like the kids making them hand made when I can.
Lol
Chris Invests - Personal Finance Videos Where are greeting cards $5?
Disney Fan Walmart, grocery stores
I remember being so poor at one point I went to the dollar tree and was counting pennies. The lady in front of me tried to cheer me up by telling me 'don't worry I've been there'. Yuppies with high salaries like to criticize dollar stores but they do serve a purpose and I thank God for them.
Dollar store is not actually cheaper than Walmart lol
thanks god some fictional delusion ahahaha poor in money and poor in intelligence total L
I remember being at a point where I had to borrow $10 for gas money to get to work, and there was a dollar store that sold fresh fruits and vegetables (which is pretty common in California because produce is so cheap) next to my new job, and it sustained me with 50 cent balanced meals for long enough to get my savings back up. I was broke because I had just moved into a new apartment before losing my job, I usually keep a cash reserve, but between moving and losing my job at the same time it was gone. I'm actually quite financially secure now.
In the UK we pay a dollar for a toothpaste in Poundland but the wage is 8.91 whereas in the US it is 15.00. And we still think we are saving!
I don't recall God being at the opening of any Dollar stores I've been to.
the place to go before heading to the movies
Anti_Feast instead of paying 12$ for one skittles pack at the theater
True 😂
Facts
Hahhahaha so true lmao
$5.25
2:34 it's cheaper to buy in bulk
4:38 low income families don't have disposable income to buy bulk
So...you've answered your own question of why dollar shops are popular
Teru Kage yessir
Yes it is you can easily spend a good $50+ at Costco
Yeah no shit they answered their own question that was the point of the video
I still think it comes down to budgeting. For instance with the toilet paper, you'd be a lot better off saving to buy the bigger pack which will last longer and cost half the price than regularly buy a four pack for a dollar, I can see why this is difficult but you'll be a lot better off for it.
Not knowing how to budget and save money keeps a lot of people in poverty, it should be taught in schools
Joe Cramp absolutely
Is it just me or are these tactics no different than the typical ones found in larger more corporate stores just with less space, inventory, and cost?
Exactly
Sorry, “more corporate”? Don’t tell me dollar tree has fooled you into thinking it’s a family run business
Come shop at my place @Jennifer C ;)
@@christianherrera4729 obviously they mean larger in popularity and more mainstream store smart ass 🙄
@@ml5923 no wait it was kinda funny
Sneaky? Yes. But still affordable for the average family? Definitely
bro ha I’d be willing to bet that 90% of people that tell themselves that either have poor money management skills and/or out of wack priorities. If you can’t afford a 6$ package of TP in order to save 50% per roll compared to a place like the DT, then you are doing something seriously wrong.
It's expensive to be poor, which is another reason why America isn't in the top 10 of countries with great economic mobility.
Avery the Cuban-American i see u everywhere
Cesar Cruz 😂💯 facts
yeah true
I love how he starts at a normal speaking volume and when he says a line that sounds crazy he says the last three words more separated and almost a whisper
I am hearing impaired and hate when someone says the important part of a sentence softly.
I will even reap eat back what I heard.
" The important thing I have to remember is..."
And then they repeat the part I heard louder but still say the part I didn't hear softly.
Dont Talk shit about my lovely Dollar Stores
sarud durdstrom 🤨
😂
Actually about that toothpaste the 4oz is about 4$ at Walmart and the 2.5 oz is 1$ at dollar tree so if you buy 2 at dollar tree not only are you spending half the price you’re also getting more toothpaste 😂
Wrong. I just looked it up myself real quick...typed in “Colgate toothpaste” on Walmart’s site....simply because of my suspicion that there’s no way in hell that what looks like Colgate’s cheapest toothpaste costs 4$ a tube at Walmart ...and I was right.
A 3 pack of that exact toothpaste in 6oz tubes costs 4$ there. 4$/18oz = .22c/oz
1$/2.5oz @ Dollar Tree = .40c/oz .... so....... bulk purchasing for the win yet again.
I mean don’t get me wrong the Dollar tree is good for *some* things, I get greeting cards there, balloons, sometimes they have large boxes of brand name cereal there that would cost like 4$ elsewhere...certain condiments..., moisture absorbers and so on......but the guy in this video was correct, when it comes to like 95% of consumables there, especially those with brand names, you’re better off buying in bulk. Not only cheaper per unit/Oz, but you also save on gas and time compared to heading there every 2 weeks to get another 2.5oz tube of toothpaste.
Jen Tuesday fair enough
I just bought a 4oz tube of Colgate at my dollar store.
Josh Rhoton 1/4=.25 = still costlier.
@@twdjt6245 I know but barely. Plus I don't support Walmart so still a win.
No bruh. I came for 6 things. I'm leaving with 6 things.
Perfect philosophy. Mostly you cant find then items you wanted in the dollar store anyway
Lol you’re like my dad. He’ll go in for 1 thing or however many things he planned on needing and won’t leave with even an a snippet more...me on the other hand.....lol will go to Walmart, dollar tree, aldi, whatever, and end up buying a bunch more than I went there for. Only place that doesn’t happen is if I go in for something on sale and/or in an expensive place like Publix/cvs/Walgreens. Guess I’m a sucker.
Jen Tuesday it’s way too easy to splurge at Aldi
jason le ikr! Do most of my grocery shopping there. Never come out with only what I went for...but it’s aldi so....least it’s usually healthy stuff and I’m never dissatisfied with what I got for what I paid. Found huge jars of guacamole there the other day for only .99 cent on clearance for example....(reg price 5$ each) nabbed 3 of them. They were like 3 days from their best by date....but they were in a vacuum sealed package, so all looked perfect....and even then guac is freezable.
Jen Tuesday Yeah I got an Aldi brand version of Ben and Jerry’s for two dollars which would normally be 4 dollars.
these stores are a hit an miss. Many products (chap stick, party goods for kids, some craft supplies, Easter basket goodies, party favors for kids, single-use items, greeting cards) are good. The cleaning supplies are hit and miss. In all honesty, shopping at a dollar tree/dollar store depends on what your getting, what its use is, and why your getting it. It's a life saver for many many folks. If you live in a food desert, or it's 10-15 miles (or further) from say, CVS or Walgreens (Walgreens is a 50 mile one way drive for me) and for some people in my county- there is only one walmart. Depending on where you live in my county, you can be 10 minutes away or a 2 hour drive round trip. Dollar store is 10-15 minute drive-roughly 20 minutes in some area. For some, dollar tree is a life saver.
You're...completely changes the context.
I wonder how much of their customers don't have a car, given that dollar stores seem to be spaced at walking-distance rather than car-distance.
why's he talking and sounding like its a bad thing lol, its still cheaper than buying stuff at walmart which is THE POINT. lol out here sounding like we watching some horror mystery smh
Ernesto Brooks He narrates like this in the movie theater video
Yeah my sister and her husband did that one day, she went to Dollar tree and he went to Walmart, and priced everything for my nieces birthday party, Dollar Tree was cheaper by 30 bucks.
LMFAOOOO😭😭😭
Lmfao , what he's trying to say is u need to but more because what the dollar stores offer isn't enough and u need an abundance of that item u seeee
Supposedly bulk is cheaper in the long run, but I go with what I can afford reguardless.
"And once they die, you have to go buy more!!" Don't you have to do that for $7 batteries? 😂
There is no product that lasts indefinitely.
I agree with you. I don’t understand his point.
It's the momentum effect, when you came back browsing for the item you needed, and the store always changing stock placement from time to time. Then you sees something that looks cool and definitely not needed only for a dollar. Theres a chance you will be buying that thing.
Yeah dollar star batteries are great. Best bang for your buck.
When I buy Costco batteries I buy them less often than once a year in bulk.
With dollar store batteries I always need more.
Uuy
I feel like they need to do more research on where dollar stores get their products from; which factories specifically. I wouldn't be surprised if a big company like Duracell for batteries goes to the same manufacturer as a third-party battery company and just slaps a different name on it and charges a higher amount because of name. The same could be said for clothes etc.
There are only 2 diaper manufacturers in the US. However, there are many different grades of raw materials used to produce said products. Duracell makes Walgreens batteries but uses their class B materials whilst saving the class A for their name brand.
B they latst about 15 times longer
Wouter de Vries he’s definitely stupid, but not because he is from America.
@@wouterdevries04 no they don't
In regards to the brand argument, you get what you pay for. Honestly, if I’m getting a $1 off-brand product which does the same thing as a $6 brand name product, then why should I complain? I’m getting the same results and saving money.
I love dollar stores 🤓👍
Except the $1 item is of poor quality and smaller quantity so you may have to spend more money just to replace/ replenish it.
@@thursdaythought7201counterpoint: most name brands have been deteriorating in quality for a decade. At least dollar stores give you what you pay for. Name brands don't guarantee that anymore.
@@VelvetCondoms Except Dollar stores are usually more expensive in the long run...
That tube of toothpaste you got for a dollar is more expensive per oz than the regular store with the much bigger tube.
We live off of a janitor's and teacher's income. We avoid dollar stores because we discovered back in college (when we were below the poverty level) that we spent less money over time buying in bulk and buying only quality items. Sure, we have to make trade-offs to do it. But we have a lot more peace of mind not having to replenish our essentials every week. We're very glad that we listened to my mom, who grew up extremely poor, when she told us to stop throwing away our money at dollar stores if we wanted to spend less.
But I still get genuine candy from dollar stores
Me too. There is still brand names even if possibly not as fresh.
They are the same, they have just sat on shelves for 2-5 years before being sold to discount stores
1 Billion subs but 0 friends
Wait what
1 Billion subs but 0 friends still taste the sams
We made treat bags for my birthday party and bought some candy from there... checked the dates and they were good until like 2021! They had more selection than my local Walmart and beat the price by a couple dollars
Love these inexpensive stores. Helped my family and I go through a rough time in our life. The problems with these chains is that they’re more likely, than the a little more expensive stores, to have expired products on their shelves. I remember nearly buying some of the food there that were a month expired and the kind lady who’d worked there at the checkouts pointed that out to me, I was shocked. And it wasn’t a few items that were passed their expiration dates either. Needless to say I still go back everywhere now and then with a few dollars and in hand and come back home with a handful of items. I’m just a lot more careful with reading the expired dates though. In bigger chain stores they usually have extra color coded labels telling you the item is about to expired which is nice and doesn’t exist in those dollar chain store I’ve ever been in including family dollar, and dollar tree
Every store ...even online has methods too. It isn't only dollar store.
I just go with what I can afford.
No one said only doller stores have a method
If you were smart, you'd go with the best compromise that helps you in the long term.
Poor people could try and buy in bulk, but rather buy what's cheapest. Long term it's worse, and this is why poor people continue to stay poor.
I used to work at Dollar Tree and I work at Walmart now and I've noticed that alot of things you can get at a dollar store is cheaper at Walmart. Like hotdogs are $1 a pack at Dollar Tree and they are $0.98 at Walmart and the same with some brands of water for the exact same sizes
Every damn store does the same thing
This video is Sponsor by your neighborhood Walmart 🤪👌
Been buying my movie candy at dollar tree for years. BLESSED 😂
Curiosity Culture it cost a dollar literally everywhere

Hold the phone! You can BUY toilet paper? I have to steal mine from work, and pray my manager doesn't catch me and performance manage me.
I steal mine from hotels

In college I used to steal mine all the time from the library. Sad when you’re paying for school
Loll
U guys 😂
Everything at Dollar Tree is 1 dollar. I buy my toilet paper from BJ’s. People just need to know how to shop. The best bargain is the books. I specifically go for them. I’ve gotten Martin Short’s autobiography and one of Whoopi Goldberg’s titles, 2 bucks as opposed to almost 40 for both titles. Sometimes they also have yarn, which regular price for a ball can be 5.99 or more, one time I got 50 bucks worth for 5 dollars! And further more, never EVER buy food from the dollar store, except gummy bears because some stores have the nerve to sell a smaller package for 99 cents.
Food at dollar stores often stale and gross looking. Even brand names at dollar stores , but I guess the smaller package equals less chance for obesity? One gets less sugar and instead buys better else where healthier hopefully.
After watching TheWolfePit cooking and tasting food from Dollar Tree, I know what I shouldn't buy at the Dollar Tree or any other discount store.
@@abrahamalvarez8692 o yah, never buy MEAT or any frozen food for that matter lol
Young me thinking everything at the dollar store was up for $1.00
YEA,IT USED TO BE $1.00..NOW.ITS $1.25..YET IT,S STILL CALLED DOLLAR TREE. 🤨
This is one of the worst videos I've ever seen. Pick one store and do your research. Dollar Tree is great. Dollar General isnt. At dollar tree, you can get 30 items for $30. At other stores, you would spend over $120 on those same 30 items. Do your research.
No u
What about family dollar?
Uh oh poor boi gets triggered by factual video.
Stop shopping at dollar stores.
@@jmoa5758 bruh its cheap what's not to like? Not everybody can afford the same thing.
Best things, in my opinion, to buy from a dollar store is office supplies and greeting cards. On most other things, it'll be cheaper but cost more per oz (for example) than Walmart.
I think the way dollar store get you to spend money is the best way-give us cheap deals. Which isn't a bad thing, it's the most moral way to get people to buy stuff.
Cheap today. More expensive by the time the month is over. Which wastes your time, gas, and money in the long run.
Personally, I can't remember dollar store batteries ever leak on me while half of the Costco brand ones do.
Also, just because Dollar General has dollar in the name does not make them a dollar store.
It's like a mini Walmart
Exactly. Thank you. Shit was bothering me the whole video
The same goes for family dollar. It’s cheap but most things there do not cost one dollar.
I’ve seen a few things I bought at Dollar Tree that were 88 or 99 cents or so at Walmart or Target.
That being said, I enjoy the consistent pricing, no calculating cost per unit and debating whether I truly need such a big tube/can/etc.
I shop at Dollar Tree when I need something. Save a lot of money.
My favorite thing to do at the dollar store was to take items and bring them to the counter and ask what the price is.
Whyyy?
Carbin zinc have less charge, but they don’t leak like alkaline
I politely disagree. When a carbon zinc battery has a leak,, it leaves acid on the terminals inside your radio/flashlight/camera Et al.
When alkaline batteries leak, vinegar will clear out most of the corrosion, and it causes less damage.
There is another type of battery sold at dollar stores -zinc chloride.
He kept whispering for emphasis and it made me uncomfortable.
As if he's telling a dirty little secret
I didn't like the sound he makes with his mouth.
I would buy those glowy light sticks even as an adult 😅
Honestly same
Okay, but if I have $50 for the month, I'll be damned if $12 of it goes to TP. That's where the dollar store steps in and why its the logical choice for many people, longterm costs aside.
Am I the only one that doesn’t like getting food items from here?
If u broke u broke
Dollar general is not a $1 only store. You can get name brand items like Kellogg's frosted flakes for $2.50 vs. $4 at Safeway per say. Where as dollar tree you get very small sample size bag or a full box of generic flakes. Dollar generals quality is no different than Walmart.
Sometimes you do get what you pay for. Sometimes stuff is cheap and sometimes stuff is inexpensive.
@@Samuel_Butin the dollar tree in my hometown has full sized boxes of a lot of stuff that I grew up eating. Especially sweets and snack stuff, which obviously isn't good to be living off of but not horrible if you have younger kids that always want snacks. For instance you can get one of those flat packs of cracker sticks and cheese dip, for a dollar.
@@taylorbritt499 I go to dollar tree. They still have a lot of good including some name brands. I'm just saying that if you need a particular brand, dollar general family dollar (owned by dollar tree) might be a better option
2:32 Since I heard toilet paper is sold out, I think dollar stores are gonna be filled with people.
Some people only have a few bucks to spend so even if they go to a Walmart they can’t spend $5 on dish soap. They go to dollar to get a few more things they need at the moment
Family Dollar: “Yoo chill lol”
Lol
I can totally hear them saying that
3:08 "BUT NOT IN A GOOD way"
I thought everyone knew this. Dollar stores are good for throwing a cheap party with decorations and kids prizes. Sometimes people are looking for small or trial size products. Also, a lot of the lower income people don't have cars so they have to be able to carry everything on public transit so the small size is better.
Not just dollar stores. All retailers do this. I live in a little town of about 7000 and we have 3 dollar stores within a couple of miles of each other
Wow i didn’t need a video to figure this brain buster out.
For those smaller size bottle of toiletries (not the tiny sizes), those are great for travel under the 3.4 oz and having enough
I only started shopping there when I found dollar tree diy videos 😅
Most of the items I've bought from such stores are okay quality. I'm more concerned about the customers that shop at those stores and & their quality of life.
That ain't stopping me from getting my hot cheetos
I can tell you from personal experience that this is true. My mom always takes goes for like some snacks but after seeing sweet deals and buying unnecessary things she would end up buying a whole cart of things😭
I came to dollar tree for one thing and left after spending over $100.
I think their strategy works.
I look at the weekly ads and have the apps installed to choose the coupons and per trip I save an average of ten bucks or more on purchases of 25 bucks or more. Family Dollar and Dollar General were my GO TOS to buy diapers for my daughter! Instead of paying about $27 for pampers diapers I’d get the box for $18 :)
These tricks don’t work for me since we barely had enough for groceries growing up. Now that I’m in college the same rule goes. I do wander and look at products, but I don’t buy anything that’s not on my list.
Here in NYC dollar or .99 cent stores never have items for that price. The tooth paste is the same exact price as in Target or Walgreens if not more. I remember when I was a kids in mid 90s my mom used to but $1 times but since mid 2000s their prices are the same as the rest.
Movie candy, greeting cards, pens/pencils, some kitchen utensils...but that's it
Yeah, you left out the part where Dollar stores fill gaps where the big grocery stores refuse to build (aka food deserts). Throughout 2020, Dollar General was a lifesaver.
Long term, terrible place to shop, But most people that dollar stores target don't have that income to buy in bulk so in a way, it's costly yes but cheaper up front.
quick side note, when I was in college I would buy everything at the dollar store and it would last me for at least 2 weeks. I think or single family homes or individuals, its still a better alternative
Edward Ornelas That’s why you have to share club member ships with people. I am extremely low income, but you have to know what to buy from the clubs, like toilet paper and frozen veggies and meat. I never ran out of food stamps when I was getting them by waiting until the end of the month to shop (never go before the 15th).
Yet you read that buying in bulk is also complicated and not an instant deal
Spiral Breeze exactly. Or do a little couponing. I coupon a bit when it comes to household/personal care/beauty items and don’t remember the last time I paid for toothpaste, and most of the deals I do to get them (usually cvs/Walgreens) literally takes no planning and less than 2 minutes in the store. Couponing is easier now than ever before. No newspapers etc necessary. All it takes is a little effort and you get free or dirt cheap stuff you need anyways.
I love my local Dollar Tree! I go there for snacks and treats for my dog. It is true though that I spend more than I should when going there.
I wouldn't trust their pet treats
I wouldn’t call it sneaky, it’s actually a very clever and profitable way of doing business. And they don’t invest nearly as much into TV advertising like Walmart and Target, they just put their ads in weekend newspapers and mailboxes which is a lot cheaper than tv ads.
all I know is I had $2 and now I have 2 wine glasses that still don’t chip or break. so that’s great. also dollar store has lots of fun craft stuff for artists, and even fairy garden toys. gardening supplies that would be marked 700% up somewhere else!! it’s a good thing for people
Honestly I go in and out often times with one Item guess I’m a outlier lol
I hear you, I go there for something specific. I dont need to buy more than that.
I love buying decorations and cards at the dollar store. My dollar store has 2 cards for a dollar any other grocery store you have to pay 5 dollars for 1 card its crazy.
A smart shopper is not just someone who cares the price, but rather a combination of being sensitive to price and being aware to the product quality.
Thanks for this informative video. When I’m in a $tree store I discourage people from buying the batteries. They usually have already expired.
It helped me a lot in high school. I would fill up my backpack with goodies grab a water bottle pay one doller AND ID be out.
I played football and was hungry all the time.
News Flash, most of these store setups are industry standards and it doesn't matter what store you go to. For instance every store including Lowe's and Menard's puts impulse purchase items at, or near the checkout. I live in a small farming town almost half an hour from the nearest Walmart. However, our town has a Dollar General and an IGA. I can get everything I need and be back home before I could even get to Walmart. Have you ever noticed how grocery stores make you walk through the whole store to get a loaf of bread?
I just realized after watching this video that I'm a "deal-prone customer." Lol
I guess just be a smarter shopper and you won't get ripped off by anyone! 💯
Well, dollar stores that still cheaper. Because the more of something we have the more we overuse it. The less of something we have the more reason conservatively. Like for toothpaste. Did you know that you only supposed to put about half a dime-sized on your toothbrush? And that you're not supposed to swallow toothpaste. It can be poisonous. So and this momentum of fact. It's common sense. If I save $10 at this store then I'm going to spend $20 at another store cuz I was able to say. I get what they're doing but the end of the day dollar stores are much cheaper. And we don't need large packages of things anymore. That's what's creating so much waste. If we actually use Things based on the recommended serving. We could cut our garbage production at half I would say in about 10 years.
Now I went and bought a type c charger from my Samsung Galaxy tab S3. If I went to any other store I would have to pay over $20. But here I pay $10. Because I bought two and they were $5 each. So at the end of the day you got to think about this just because you're spending more money on it doesn't mean that is worth it.
I am not completely agreeing with your statement about cutting garbage production in 10 years, because large packages can sometimes create less trash and small packages can sometimes lead to more trash. Think about cookies or chocolate bars, the individually wrapped ones inside a bigger plastic package. They made them in small size packaging or "travel-size", but that would usually create more mess around our neighbourhoods. The park is often filled with small pieces of plastic in the grass, but not large size packages, because people bring large size packages to home and throw them out in the trash or recycling bin, not bring them outside. Small size packaging on certain goods can not only lead to more garbage, but more garbages outside in public attractions.
But if you are talking about, say, gift cards, which were not usually individually wrapped when selling them at the dollar store, but were usually wrapped in plastic boxes when selling them in bulk, I can see how that could eliminate some waste. I just think you should be more specific in how large packages are creating more waste. The "recommended servings" usually puts our portions inside of small packages and even smaller packages or puts our portions in multiple small packages. If that is the case, just buy one big package of the good and measure out your own servings and put it into reusable containers. This will usually be more environmentally friendly especially for liquid product goods like soda.
And yes, dollar stores can have great deals.
@@milliezhu I'm optimistic. And I just mean in America. We're talking about global that's going to be a couple of centuries.
At the dollar store pick the bigger AIM toothpaste
@Grim Soul Well I like your optimism, but even if you meant just the US, or even just in one state, simply relying on dollar stores' small packaging would not cut down the waste in 10 years. Let's not forget that we have a rapid growing population. Dollar store suppliers would only produce more packaging waste to keep up with the growing demands. We would be in luck if the amount of waste produced stays the same after 10 years, let alone reducing it.
Instead of thinking that dollar stores' small packaging would reduce waste in 10 years, it is more realistic to think about the 3Rs (making waste not a waste), or to consider about implementing plastic-ban policies (like the plastic straw ban in Canada).
For people on a fixed income, it's vital to have a store with fixed prices. Also, many of their customers cannot access Amazon due to not having access to credit cards & computers, so they have to use cash or debit cards (if they have a bank account). Most dollar stores not accept EBT cards for food purchases, so if a person happens to be on food stamps, they can get food on a daily or weekly basis instead of having to spend large amounts like they would at other stores. I make a list & rarely stray from it when I shop at dollar stores.
I showed this to my employer I got a promotion thanks
Next video: Sneaky ways Buissness insider gets you to click on videos 😂😂😂
Literally every store
These tactics are nothing new. It's the reason why milk and bread are never at the front of any grocery store. You have to walk through hundreds of items on display just to get to them.
With milk I agree...but bread at my Walmart is always in the first real isle....
Five dollar toilet paper 💀😂😂😂 Rona said... BET 😂
I like dollar store too and hope that one of them is in my neighborhood.
tlc cheapskates have entered the chat:
Being cheap is expensive in the long run!
I love the dollar store!! Of course I know what to buy that is worth the money. And buying just for myself in bulk is more of a waste. Party supplies, glass vases are so worth it. I'm not an impulsive shopper. I buy what I came for.
Literally Nobody:
Business Insider: Dollar Stores are bad for you. Here's the bad truth.
Ok? I love the dollar store
I 💜 love the marketing professor's super posh Indian-British hybrid accent.
With the battery thing, I agree. Just buy rechargeable betteries, so you don’t need to buy many times.
I love the dollar store. Who pays brand name for bleach and shit. I always buy what I need.
Uh, when one has a family of 4 and cannot buy in bulk, then heck yeah, the dollar store is a better deal!!! Not everyone has an amazon account. For example, Dollar General has a 5 off of 25 on the weekends. That is when my family buys laundry detergent and toilet paper. So, yes, in my opinion, I like dollar stores way better than Walmart.
Dollar general also has a TON of good home decor/appliance stuff that may not be amazing quality but works well enough. Pots/pans, utensils, toasters, etc.
Dollar Stores can still provide a much needed service by being located in a walkable distance compared to a Wal Mart or other grocery store for those who are impoverished. Especially, if they offer the chance to buy food for their customers. Helps solve a food desert problem, even if it isn't the best solution in the long run.
Not to mention, dollar stores also sell more items that are made in China than other stores. China-made items are usually poorly made and prone to breaking or wearing out more quickly
Practically everything you buy is made in China. The difference between something at the Dollar Store and something at a big brand place is that the Dollar Store's suppliers will negotiate for a lower cost than other stores, usually at the expense of quality.
Why does this dude sound like he is whispering in some parts of the video?
Only ogs remember when they used to be called 99 cents store.
87cents and up stores to be exact.
I have a place called the 99 cent store where I live.
Actually the true OG's remember the 5 and dime stores.
