| - Is it a $1 store or is it .99 cents please enter a laughing emoji of sorts:)
Fortunately, there is no shortage of more-for-less chain stores. When I 'pop' in for buying envelopes I can not help but peruse EVERY, single aisle. My initial reasoning is all out the door, as was my intention for spending $3 give or take. Well, the take was on me- $30 after every aisle.
I've learned random name brands do appear in the shelves! Yes, the expiration dates are good for another or more! Last month I couldn't believe my eyes (yes, I rubbed them) thought it was a dream;) Illy coffee bottles! I purchased the entire case of the latte. That's correct, that empty shelf space was my doing.
This place also has some decent tchotchkes. Party goods abound here. Those seasonal holidays are dedicated to an entire aisle of irresistible decorations. Last week, no not Christmas decorations but HALLOWEEN decor and costume makings! I purchased some lovely masks. Three exactly. No, don't know what I'm planning for a costume. I do however, have the masks;)
In the back corner they have produce, fresh and nicely priced. The refrigerator goods near by, some surprising brands on occasion- these dates usually expire within a few months. For example, I'm an East coaster (my accent does not give it away)! Really, it doesn't ha ha ha;) I immediately recognized the red and white packaging- Breakstone's sour cream! I was thrilled, well giddy truthfully. I purchased the remaining three and then walked over to produce and picked up some potatoes for baking;). Guess what was for dinner that evening;)
This location just remodeled by way of redesigning the aisles and adding even more merchandise. Good grief!
One will always find more than they need here, without even needing it;)
