Default Dollar Store Appreciation thread

Honestly, how dope is a good dollar store?

I got a big jumbo bag of seasoned sun-flower seeds for 1.25.

And it's the go to joint for stationery. And snooping throughout there's all kinds of other goodies that you wouldn't reckon you needed until seeing em

Sure, a lot of it's crap. But a good dollar store is one of those smaller enjoyments of life

*** this thread in no way was inspired by Elph, but come to think of it, I do think it's pretty cool that he works at one***

At least over here those stores are goddamn liars, literally nothing in them costs a dollar anymore.

There were 3 dollar stores chains in this part of the country, but Dollar Tree bought Family Dollar a while ago. The stuff at Dollar Tree is all $1, except a few things like cans of vegetables that are less. Nothing is more. A real dollar store. Dollar General has some good deals but most things are not $1

No appreciation for dollar stores because I do not buy anything there. Sometimes I watch youtube videos of the meat that is available at them. It is not good

Pretty solid score man. I picked up a few of the early 90's mario brother cartoons DVD's for 1.25 a piece awhile back.... I thought that was pretty epic.

I also scored a brand new 1994 Dead-Eye Dick cassette tape for 50 cents at another... Also epic.

The best part about dollar stores is you can walk in and see an influx of stock from 10-25 years ago, all new and stocked to sell. It's like walking in a time warp. The best place to find gold is at the non-chain, privately owned shops. But the chains do have the better deals.

i hate canadian currency. all their coins look like American coins. they're almost the same size, but off just enough that they don't work in any machines in the USA.

Actually I've gotten some good stuff from a dollar store (independent, in PA) and all of it is in these pics:

I got a Bill Maher book from a dollar store once. That was...something.

I used to troll my ex-wife and say I wanted to shop for groceries at the dollar store that week. She knew I was joking but it always drove her up the wall for some reason.

Good times.
