I was pleasantly surprised. Normally I don't buy from dollar stores, but the last two years there were a number of things i knew i was only going to find at those places (or i knew they had the same exact product as the more expensive stores.) Well, while searching for certain objects i discovered a dollar store where almost all of its merchandise is made in the U.S.A. !!! A dollar store!

I constantly see these cheap $2 shops getting so much business, and wonder if the people who frequent them know exactly why they are forced to buy cheaper goods. Seems almost as if they are on a bandwagon, where ther more they give their business to these cheap importers, the worse off their lives become.
Not real sure what the solution is.
