A poor person might not be that clever and might not have much time and might make a bad decision the first time they visit family dollar and get conned by watered down soap and subpar goods and food in unusually small portions. However when they shop there for YEARS they do eventually find the time to figure out what the deals are. When these stores have tons of poor people being loyal customers for years it indicates they’re doing something right.
