Perfect price!

It stocks your typical junky store items like stickers, toys, Tupperware items, birthday cards and wrapping paper. My favourite item was a coin purse made out of a tiny sock. It was only $3 and really cute. I also found a pretty random Scooby Doo Whoopy Cushion. I left it behind because it's really not a good idea for me to own one of those... my friends would kill me! The customer service here is friendly enough. The staff member stayed behind the counter while I browsed and he greeted me with a smile when I first walked in. The prices are really low and the items to be found are more original than most similar variety shops. It's worth a visit for some cheap knick-knacks.

Besides the incense, i've bought a few pieces of glassware, stationary, and cat products here because they have a good range of these that seems slightly better quality than the average imports. Very little in the way of hardware, electronics, or home maintenance compared to nearby stores, but i'm heading down there tonight to raid that excellent range of incense and buy a new drink bottle.

I had been looking for clear suit bags for about a week, and just because I was passing by. I ended up walking out with half a dozen bits and pieces, things I had forgotten I even needed. The owner was a great laugh, joking with everyone in the shop.

This is where I pick up a cheap toy for the dog, with a section of inexpensive chew toys available, ready and waiting for your puppy to chew to pieces. Most are good quality, and I've found that even though long hours have been spent trying to destroy them, the toys hold up really well. As an avid believer in a good costume party, I've also hit this store up for bit and pieces for costumes. They stock a small range of wigs, dress ups and accessories and as they usually don't last the night, its good to not have to pay too much for these bits. I also have picked up sunglasses form these guys and my current $7 sunnies have lasted me almost a year...whether they are actually UV resistant is anyone's guess, however for $7 I cant complain.

The…read moredemand for stuff costing $2 has peaked my friends, maybe over the coming years we will see the emergence of $6 shops. More realistic. My favourite aspect of this particular discount shop is that it is relatively spacious. It is an alarming trend for such stores to be jam packed with as much stock as possible. Resulting in tacky chaos. This store is a lot more relaxed and organized and therefore much more likely to receive my $2.
