The Moose-limb in the White Hut is attempting to break the spirit of the American people while cutting them off from their historical past, disarming them, arming government agencies to the hilt ("just a strong, just as well funded") and importing millions of unskilled, hostile, mooching Third Worlders.
Just bought a cell phone charger for a dollar at dollar tree.
I have a more negative interpretation of the beheadable millenials: the vast majority of victims in orlando were millenials, all of whom choose to be defenseless and withuot any fight.
YOU CANNOT MAKE THIS LEVEL OF ABJECT STUPIDITY UP!
Batteries are the best value. Eight AA batteries for $1, as opposed to $8 at a pharmacy. True, the Bunny batteries last much longer, but when the batteries are used to put in a computer mouse, why not pocket the savings?
Two days ago I bought a very healthy variety (no Yellow 31, or Purple 96 inside) of Wise corn chips for $1. Not a mini-bag, but a bag the size that could easily fetch for $2.50 in your average grocery store.
My local Athens, GA Dollar Tree sells a tasty $1 block of spicy cheese that would sell for $3.95 elsewhere.
And the workers at these dollar stores have to be incredibly efficient -- stocking shelves, working the cash register at the same time.
I put these Dollar stores in the same category as ALDI, a great, no-frills grocery store that has fabulous food at very reasonable prices.
hey, they got some good stuff at the Dollar Store....
Low Budget - The Kinks
Cheap is small and not too steep
But best of all cheap is cheap
Circumstance has forced my hand
To be a cut price person in a low budget land
Times are hard but we’ll all survive
I just got to learn to economize
I’m on a low budget
I’m on a low budget
I’m not cheap, you understand
I’m just a cut price person in a low budget land
Excuse my shoes they don’t quite fit
They’re a special offer and they hurt me a bit
Even my trousers are giving me pain
They were reduced in a sale so I shouldn’t complain
They squeeze me so tight so I can’t take no more
They’re size 28 but I take 34
I’m on a low budget
What did you say
I’m on a low budget
I thought you said that
I’m on a low budget
I’m a cut price person in a low budget land
I’m shopping at Woolworth and low discount stores
I’m dropping my standards so that I can buy more
Quality costs, but quality wastes,
So I’m giving up all of my expensive tastes.
Caviar and champagne are definite no’s,
I’m acquiring a taste for brown ale and cod roes
Low budget sure keeps me on my toes
I count every penny and I watch where it goes
We’re all on our uppers we’re all going skint
I used to smoke cigars but now I suck polo mints
I’m on a low budget
What did you say
Yea I’m on a low budget
I thought you said that
I’m on a low budget
I’m a cut price person in a low budget land
I’m on a low budget
Low budget
Low budget
Art takes time, time is money
Money’s scarce and that ain’t funny
Millionaires are things of the past
We’re in a low budget film where nothing can last
Money’s rare there’s none to be found
So don’t think I’m tight if I don’t buy a round
I’m on a low budget
What did you say
Yes I’m on a low budget
I thought you said that
I’m on a low budget
I’m a cut price person in a low budget land
I’m on a low budget
Say it again
Low budget
One more time
Low budget
[I look like a tramp, but don’t write me off,
I’ll have you all know, I was once a tough
At least my hair is all mine, my teeth are my own,
But everything else is on permanent loan.
Once all my clothes were made by hand,
Now I’m a cut price person in a low budget land.
I’m on a low budget
I’ll have you all know
We’re on a low budget
I’m on a low budget
the problem with dollar stores is that much of the stuff sold their is super-cheap chinese crap in bottles and containers with logos that LOOK like the real thing, but aren’t. And many of the products such as various liquid cleaners are primarily colored water. I bought some cheap ammonia solution from one a few weeks ago and when I opened it, it barely had any ammonia smell at all it was so weak.
I’ll say this: If you can find stuff you use at the Dollar Store, you’re probably doing pretty well. If you just buy crap to buy crap, you are at least saving money.
Certain office supplies there are very cheap. Tape, $1 vs $3 at a stationery store. If that doesn’t matter to you then it doesn’t matter. I buy deodorant there exactly the same brand that’s for sale in stores for $2.79. Dish soap, some cleansers....
If you need cheap/expendable reading glasses or sunglasses they are fantastic.
I will also say that as someone who gets involved in certain legal and estate situations where people have bought and filled their homes with literally kilotons of debris-—decorative plates sitting under plants...greeting cards (which are phenomenally expensive for what they are) and boxes of personalized stationery and wrapping paper and various bric-a-brac-—I have thrown out piles of this kind of thing from houses where probably $20K was spent on it that could have bot at the DS for under $1K. If it iwas so darn important to own it in the first place.
You heard it here. First we had Gen-X, then Gen-Y, and now GenEric. Term GenEric copyright 2016 Webheart.
Is it because they MUST HAVE STUFF and saving takes too long to tickle that itch?
These are halcyon days in comparison to the mostly empty dollar store shelves for the generation to follow under continued progressive government.
We had two little nieces living with us for a couple weeks while their parents were out of the country. We took them to the water park - an expensive day that they enjoyed moderately. We took them to a petting zoo - again, an expensive day that they enjoyed moderately. We took them to Chuck E. Cheese - big mistake. An expensive day that they hated because they spent the time being pushed out of the way by feral kids.
We gave them each a tenner and took them to the Dollar Store. BEST. DAY. EVER. They talked about it for years after that.
The one retailer doing well.
Not being squeamish in one’s shopping habits is imparted around here in college. Don’t know where this guy has been.
Don’t know where this guy has been. The millennials I know learn to be frugal during college and in general aren’t wealthy.
just tell them not to worry: Obama and Hitlery still have tens of millions of dollars. and guns to protect them and their families.
so it is all good.
