There was a dream that was Rome, and this is not it.
Dollar stores in the US gave up on that promise like a decade ago
It was inevitable with inflation of course, but that’s why you don’t pick names like that. Wikipedia says they go up to $30:
Five Below, Inc. is an American chain of specialty discount gift shops that prices most of its products at $5 or less, plus a smaller assortment of products priced up to $30.
Yeah they’ve given up on the “under $5” thing entirely
More bytes for Ur buck?
You guys have Babylonian deer?
I know that feel. Went to a 1€-Store to buy cheap supplies for the new home when I moved and several things there were more. Still, the stuff I needed I got for 1€ (trashcans, coat hangers, sponges and brushes)
That’s still very cheap, the 1€-Store near me has almost nothing at 1€ anymore. It’s become more like the 5€ store.
The pound shop in the UK used to sell everything for a pound. Now it sells stuff in multiples of a pound.
Yep what they actually meant was, “Nothing is less than a pound 😉”
Looks like something worth 50 cents at most.
You’re not tricking me with those discount dice
I’ve been warned your tricks!
