This is a rather plain-looking warehouse-style building on the corner of 2nd St. and US-2 in…read moredowntown Iron River. The parking lot is actually a vacant dirt lot next to it. Inside, this place is really hit-or-miss, but it is useful. Budget Dollar carries overstock or close-out items for food, pharmacy, home decor, housewares and toys. It's more than a dollar store, as it has a lot more aisles and stuff to offer. We've found it to be a great source for packaged goods that are not prone to spoilage. For example, I once found a jumbo pack of Sazon Goya con Culantro y Achiote, which I use for making Mexican rice at home. It was so big it lasted me nearly 2 years. At the same time, I'd avoid food items with expiration dates, like the pomegranate apple sauce dated October 2008, normally around $3, sitting on the shelf marked $1 in June 2009. I bought some undated chewy pressed fruit strips at 3 for $1. While some were good and tasty, others were dry and tough as leather. Looking for tablecloths or napkins and plates for a party? Lots to choose from in a variety of colors and at unbeatable prices. Bottom line, be careful what you buy and you might walk away with quite a bargain.

The only problem I have with this thrift store is that you really have to look at the items before buying them. The people who shelf and price these items don't really seem pick and chose what is put on shelf and what isn't. For example, I found a CD case without a disk in it and there was a board game missing it's cards. Now, if I wasn't paying attention, I might have purchased those items and been out of luck.

The staff is always very friendly, tolerant of unending stream of out-of-towners, and ready to help you find what you need. The only downfall is the high prices, but that's true of every small, northwoods grocery I've ever been to. There's simply not enough volume to offer low prices, but since I'm on vacation I don't worry too much about it. To give you an idea of price point, it's about $3 for a gallon of water, nearly $5 for a bag of M&Ms, and a few bucks for a loaf of bread. Ouch.

Great place to pick up the essentials and not-so-essentials. It also looks like if you ask someone there who orders the items there-- you might be able to work through them to get something specific... especially since something like Kefir was there!
