negozio tutto a un dollaro /"dollar store"

Dollar store
A dollar store is a store that sells inexpensive items for one dollar each. A very popular concept throughout the world, the stores usually sell everything from cleaning supplies to children's toys. Almost all products sold in such stores are not in brand name. In addition, the products usually have a lower quality of manufacture than their counterparts in normal retail stores.
Often the term "dollar store" is used by the store to be intentionally misleading. Many stores claiming to be "dollar stores" often have many items that cost more or less than a dollar. The problem with the name is also compounded by sales taxes, which usually guarantee that no items will actually cost the customer a dollar.

corrispondono ai negozi che da noi vendono tutto a 1/2/3 euro.
