"It wasn’t there an article here yesterday that dollar stores were a scam and the markup and the margins are much higher at dollar stores than regular supermarkets?"

that quaint old saying..."cavet emptor"....

I bet most people don't realize that when a store has a "buy one, get 2nd one half off" is really just saying 25% off except they get you to buy two items instead of one....

Dollar Store is a Chinese store front = $$$ to CCP.

If it is made in the USA and sold in the Dollar store then it was and oversight.

greeting cards...gift bags...cleaning supplies...candles...matches...I fondly remember buying 8 bottles of hand disinfectant about 8oz each back in early March of 2020.

Hey Free Traitors™ I thought Chinese wage slaves making everything instead of “lazy stupid Americans” ensured we’d have cheap crap all the time. What happened?

I remember doing ALL my shopping at the 5 and dime for Christmas as a kid....able to buy something for my 4 brothers, my sister and my parents, all for probably 3-4 bucks....

Dollar, Wal Mart, Home Depot, etc are all money vacuums with the money eventually going back to China and Asia.

Offshoring and the globalist store fronts that support it are engines of wealth destruction...
