The dollar stores in Japan (100 yen) are a steal. There's a large and diverse selections that's worth buying.

Everywhere I go people are talking about japan as if you tease me! I want to go there more than I want to go to most places! The only thing that tops it is school. Kana goes to my school.

I love the dollar store

But i disagree on the shampoo. If you are buying brands like suave, dove, garnier fructise, etc then the ingredients are usually not much different. But i buy high quality shampoo and i can feel the difference. I have long hair and have tried so many brands that did not keep my hair healthy.

Unfortunately even some high quality shampoos contain paraben and other chemical ingredients that can lead to breast cancer... paraben is a chemical common in products that literally mutates the hormones. So unless you're going natural, still a rip off.. :(

I have an allergic reaction to almost every thing but TREsemme. not any sop's any ideas what that brand docent have in it?

[TheDorkVariety]

Not sure.. TREsemme still has ingredients that usually cause allergies, cancer, developmental/reproductive toxicity, neurotoxity, ect.. if you're using one with vitamin d or b12 that could be the reason you're not having an allergic reaction. I know one of the products they have doesn't contain silicone, that might be it..

[RazedByWolvs]

d and b12 are fine. they use that in sunscreen.

Pert plus use to not make my head breakout in a rash but then they reformulated it for woman.

I don't like TREsemme but i guess im stuck with it. But thanks for trying. :)

@hawaii8087 ........ so, shave your head and buy the cheap stuff.

i find that some dollar store products cost a quarter the normal price and last a third as long. so you may have to buy 3 to get the same life out of the product, but you're still saving in the end.

I kinda noticed something....

you mentioned $1.00 or less, but display items for $1.29, $1.49, etc. Slightly contrary to the statement prior.

Low cost stores are bargains as well. Take Big Lots. You can get some of the same products cheaper, such as shampoos for $0.89, rather than a buck. They are the same exact products too.

I found this out very quickly back when I moved out to my own place.Craig's list, ebay, thrift stores, dollar stores, junk yards, local coupons, stores I can walk to or ride the bus to. All of that add up to a major savings and it enabled me to get stuff I could otherwise not afford to get.Another really good tip Do NOT got grocery shopping on an empty stomach EVERYTHING looks good to buy and eat!not only do you end up with junk food you also get stuff you did not want to spend money on.

Definitely Big lots,Family Dollar and Dollar General have saved me long waits in line and trips to Wally world.
