I like cheap stuff, so I like it. However, it can be a very depressing scene. You are correct.

Roommate bought a really shitty porcelain doll at dollar general for $2.50 once for a gift for his niece.  Looked on ebay and they were going for $50 to this one person who was trying to collect the set, I guess.  Anyways he went back to dollar general and bought the remaining 4 and sold all five to this person for $250.

They are pretty popular in Coffeyville since people don't want to have to drive all the way across town to go to the new Wal-Marts.

They usually have some pretty K-Stateo stuff at the Dollar General.

When I lived in an apt, I used to go to Dollar Tree specifically to buy those bags for picking up after your dog. A buck for 50 of them is ridiculously cheap. I'd buy like 20 bucks worth at a time so I didn't have to go there very often cause it was scummy as hell.

i like dollar tree for bathroom/cleaning type stuff.  do you really need a jumbo size shampoo?  nah.  get the smaller size for $1, you're all set.

What's that?  You want to buy holiday decor at $1 a piece?  Bingo.  eff off, Hobby Lobby or whatever
