It's less of a dollar store and more of a five dollar store.
If you are looking for a nice cheap gift it's the place to go. They sell candy, books, games, headphones, seasonal items, and dvds. (I'm trying to visualize the store in my head.) They do have more random things but you get the idea. They have a few ds, psp, and playstation games but they go fast. For $5 it's a steal.
It's a great place to go around Easter or Christmas. You can fill up a basket or stocking on a budget. You may not spend much but it looks like you went overboard and spent a lot.
