    As a frugal person, I rarely shop at the dollar store because the shit there is so low-quality it’s a poor value even at that price.

      Imo, it’s absolutely fantastic for things like cards and gift bags.

      People only look at a card for like 30 seconds and then forget about it. It makes more sense to get one at 1/6 of the price of a regular one. Same thing with gift bags.

      For most other things, everything in it is shit. But it has its niche cases where it’s superior like that.
