Reply to comment by bn1979 in Dollar stores were the fastest-growing food retailers by household expenditure share between 2008 to 2020 according to Tufts University. While they still represent a small fraction of national household food purchases, they play an increasingly prominent role for disadvantaged and rural communities. by shiruken

Pregnancy tests. They have to meet the same accuracy standards as the expensive kind but you’re not paying for plastic housing on the strip. They’re easier to use than a covid test and perfect if you’re TTC or just want to have one on hand for peace of mind.

Greeting cards. 50 cents or $1 vs $5 for printed cardstock anywhere else.

Not necessarily. The high end ones, you are mostly just paying extra for a large plastic container to hold the test strip. All you need is the test strip. Its worth about $0.50. One line or two is all you need to know. I used to buy mine in bulk off Amazon.
