It was inevitable with inflation of course, but that's why you don't pick names like that. Wikipedia says they go up to $30:

Five Below, Inc. is an American chain of specialty discount gift shops that prices most of its products at $5 or less, plus a smaller assortment of products priced up to $30.

Dollar stores in the US gave up on that promise like a decade ago

I always remember the neon signs 99 Cents stores used to have saying “nothing over 99 cents ever!”

Yeah they've given up on the "under $5" thing entirely

I know that feel. Went to a 1€-Store to buy cheap supplies for the new home when I moved and several things there were more. Still, the stuff I needed I got for 1€ (trashcans, coat hangers, sponges and brushes)

[–] Thorry84 8 points 3 days ago

That's still very cheap, the 1€-Store near me has almost nothing at 1€ anymore. It's become more like the 5€ store.

The pound shop in the UK used to sell everything for a pound. Now it sells stuff in multiples of a pound.

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

Yep what they actually meant was, “Nothing is less than a pound 😉”

You’re not tricking me with those discount dice

I’ve been warned your tricks!

Looks like something worth 50 cents at most.
