My favorite "dollar" ($1.50) store in the US is Daiso which carries a lot of Asian/Japanese items. I find that the quality there is better than normal dollar store items, but I don't think they are nationwide.
I was referring more to things like meat or vegetables. Small snacks may be ok if they are from a well-known brand. But I personally avoid off-brand food items from dollar stores.oldbuddy wrote:I buy cookies there all the time and they are the same as in other stores.

I believe that kind of shop would be limited on the variety of things they sell given the pricing so that they can make profits.Jem Smith wrote:There are similar shops in Australia. I go there sometimes, depending on what I'm shopping for. They're good for things like cheap craft supplies for kids, garden stuff and stationery. Not so much clothing because it looks poorly made and I don't think it will last.
