Dollar Stores: America’s five & dime

News reports of Dollar Tree buying out Family Dollar stores appears to have fallen through…personally, I think this is not a good move on the part of Family Dollar most shoppers I know enjoy Dollar Tree more.

As household budgets continue to be stretched by fuel, food and medical costs, many families have turned to dollar stores from many household basics.

When I was a young boy we routinely shopped at Woolworth’s, Murphy’s and other five and dime stores. Woolworth’s always had a great lunch counter featuring grilled hot dogs and buttered buns which were a favorite of mine and my siblings. Most of them are long gone today.

James of Community Outreach sent me the following and I found it interesting enough to share it with our readers today. A year or so ago we did an unscientific study of the top dollar stores and the 99 Cent stores came in first because they frequently offer name brand goods and food product. All dollar stores have been squeezed as inflation narrows profit margins.

Looking at household income, turns out, is a pretty good clue in determining where the dollar stores are in the country. While Texas may have the most dollar stores, for example, it’s Mississippi that has the most dollar stores per capita. Interestingly enough, both states have household incomes below the national average. And so we created “The Dollar Stores of America”, a visualization that captures the relationship between dollar stores and household income.
