Yeah. I buy dish soap, SOS pads, various cleaning supplies, bread, and snacks at the 99 cent store because its cheaper and still the same products. Doesn't mean I don't go to a regular store to buy other stuff.
And if you're going to the movies, I suggest you go to the dollar store, load up on snacks and put 'em in the biggest purse you have girls. Cheaper than the snacks at the movies.
The closest thing NC has to a 99 cent store is Dollar Tree.
I might go to Dollar Tree,Family Dollar,or Dollar General, BUT I DON'T use Roses/Maxway (BOTH feel like big dollar stores) and Big Lots feels ever so slightly out if this category.
