Variety store mostly focuses on the US, so adding content for other countries would be fine. No need for two articles about this Joseph2302 (talk) 21:16, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dime store

[edit]

"Dime store" was not in the list of names for these kinds of stores, but look at https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=five+and+dime%2Cdime+store%2C+dollar+store&year_start=1800&year_end=2019&corpus=en-2019&smoothing=3, and you will see it is more common than five and dime.

By region

[edit]

I just removed an entry for Denmark listing a full-price supermarket as a 'dollar store'. Føtex isn't even a discount store. People more knowledgable about other regions/countries should look into other entries. If this egregious an entry found a way into the list, I suspect there are other entries that need to be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Teral (talkcontribs) 07:38, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
