Correct. Kraft makes Miracle Whip and also Mayonnaise.

A lot of things in 'dollar" stores are no longer a dollar. Went to a Dollarama, and bought a reusable mask for $2.50. The Vaporisateur is French for spray bottle. Most products are labeled in French and English because those are our official languages.

“Oh look! A skipping rope!” Ummm, no. That’s a cheap Christmas garland 🤣

I loved the look on Joel's face when he found out he wasn't getting soup. Priceless.

It is just the sauce in the tin. Not the pasta.

That's because you need to go to the Dollar Tree! I live for it, lol!

The sporadic-ness of this video is SO accurate for shopping through a dollar store! Hahah so fun!

Name brand foods will also pack their product for store brands, so the crackers that looked like Ritz might actually be Ritz. Canned veggies also do this. A lot of dollar stores have prices that are larger than a dollar. Remember, inflation hits everyone. Americans bake cakes in two pans too. That cake cutter would be used if you were making more than two layers. You need to try a Smith Island cake, from Smith Island, Maryland. Their cakes have a dozen layers (or thereabouts).

Dollar stores are a guilty pleasure for me - I'll stop in for paper clips, or a gift bag, or whatever, and end up roaming up and down the aisles just to see all the cheap stuff.

I love your culture shock. The canned pasta was the best.

I remember when Dollarama used to be all $1 or less then it got a little more expensive but its still super cheap!

Dollar stores started in the 90s. But inflation has increased the prices. I grew up when some stores were still called Five And Dimes.

No, we use two pans too. It's just when you use that you are cutting one of cakes that you have made in one of pans to make the layers thin. It probably won't work because you are buying it from the $ store.

Lol until yesterday when I went to world market, I had never seen those biscuits in real life.

J&L, around 2 decades ago, when dollar stores here were suddenly popping up everywhere, all their stuff really was a dollar. When Dollarama, a chain of stores, opened up back then, everything in there literally was a dollar there too, but the company name they came up with then is their name today, even though selling anything for a dollar is no longer possible. Misleading I know, but at the beginning, their name really met the expectations. Even in the small mom 'n' pop shops that are "dollar" stores couldn't survive now if they kept everything at a dollar today in 2021. Everyone here understands that, the sad reality of inflation, even though of course we'd all be happier with the old original prices, but I image as a tourist, they're be no reason to expect that or know. Having said that, they're still the low-end, go-to bargain stores that everyone can count on that sells at lower prices than regular stores.

Yeah, dollar store is just euphemism for discount outlets now. Dollar General is probably the largest franchise in the U.S. now. They've expanded rapidly over the last five years. You can basically find one in any town not big enough to have a Walmart and or Target and even in those towns you'll find Dollar Generals, multiples depending on the size of the town or city. And believe it not sometimes you can actually find them selling things at a higher price than what Walmart has on the same item.

Now I'm curious about what their phobia is that they can't show on camera. Does anyone know? Lol.

The UK's Poundland sells items for more than a Pound. The Pound barrier was broken back in 2019.

To understand Dollarama. You have to understand depreciation. Basically , you own a store and anything you don’t sell depreciates. When that price falls below the price the business has calculated the shelf space cost. The product is sold to a Dollar store. Please forgive me that’s a very rough and clumsy description of how it’s done but the basic idea. Now Dollarama also carries its own products , which are new to them. I was thinking you guys would make a trip to Dollarama eventually. They sell the cheapest Acetaminophen you will find. Which is why I stated earlier that they call Acetaminophen, Paracetamol in the U.K.

Inflation darlings. Prices used to be around a dollar (even less for some items 2 for a dollar, 3 or 4...) Miracle Whip is not mayonnaise, but mayonnaise based. Makes a nice potato salad. Vaporisateur = Sprayer in French. Vaporiser is the verb. I always found that extra syllable interesting and making conversations a comical nightmare when in a bilingual group 🙂

I live in California and we have the a dollar tree and the dollar general. Also, Best Foods is mayonnaise and Miracle Whip is sandwich spread. Two totally different things.

Back in the 90s when they started popping up everything was a dollar! But now they’re more! Usually under $5!

This was fun, and I love you guys. Some notes: I am constantly seeing stuff at my Dollar Tree that's $3-4 elsewhere. Example : Gallon of bleach there : $1. Walmart brand bleach : $2.49. Frankly, I'm not that fussy about cleaners; I don't need Vera Wang designer bleach. As for those tinned pastas, kids love them; your past 5 year old selves would've adored them. Even broke college students often eat them. My store even has sun dried tomatoes, quinoa and parchment paper. You often find brand names, just smaller sizes for say, cereal. Which can be convenient, if kids like different kinds. Those gloves stretch so much the Hulk could wear toddler gloves. And value? I bought a little nightlight there for $1 when I was 8, and sixteen years later I'm still using it. Every night.

I went to the $1 store and got a gob of gift bags. Sometimes the glue comes undone but all you need to do is reglue it.

Miracle Whip is actually slightly different than regular mayonnaise it’s a little zingy-like it has maybe a dash of vinegar in it or something.

One province, Quebec, which is mostly French-speaking, has laws stipulating that all stores/businesses and public signs must have either only French on them, or if they're bilingual, the French portion must be larger and more prominent than the English. That,however, isn't the case in the rest of Canada.

While there are Dollar Tree & Dollar General stores in the USA, near me there had been a store called Five Below which I believe had everything for under $5.00. I believe that it probably went in 20 years ago or maybe even more but I never went in.

In the U.S. everything's a dollar at "The Dollar Tree."..except during the Christmas shopping season. They will have a lot of items they don't usually carry...like toys, gift sets, and make-up kits, etc. Those items will usually cost more than a dollar. However, they would still (more than likely) be a lot cheaper.. compared to other chains known for affordable pricing, such as Walmart. I'm from So. Cal., but I'm sure in Nashville or Orlando you would also have better luck shopping there.

There are stores named "Everything is a Dollar"

It was called Dollarama back in the day when everything was one dollar. Now, with inflation, it can be 2 or 3 bucks, but most stuff is still $1 (which is 61p). Have you never been to a Poundland in the UK? Not everything is still £1. Some things can be £10, which is $16.32 Canadian.

Joel, Miracle Whip is not Mayonnaise lol

That was fun....lol

Between Dollar General and Dollar Tree both market people to come in the store and find all kinds of bargains it's like finding gold when you want to save a little money

Miracle Whip is not legally (USDA FDA) mayonnaise because it contains sugar and spices not original to the egg, vinegar, and oil thing. It's technically a "dressing" and cannot be sold as mayonnaise in the US and probably elsewhere.

In the US, we have Dollar Tree, where everything is $1 or less..... Miracle Whip is not just mayonnaise with vinegar and high fructose corn syrup added.

Miracle whip & mayonnaise are quite different tastes. Not fake products.. mostly the same just made by "non" brand names.

What nobody else seems to have mentioned about Miracle Whip is that the US Food and Drug Administration regulates certain food labels. It defines "mayonnaise" as having a certain range of fat content. Miracle Whip is below the minimum, so it can't legally be labeled "mayonnaise". BTW, could you stop whinging about dollar stores costing more than a dollar? Originally, everything really did cost a dollar, but these chains have been around for decades and, y'know, inflation? You might argue that they should rebrand, but as a brand yourselves I'm sure you can imagine how costly that would be. Besides, rebranding would wipe out all their name recognition and make them start over building custom. They're still the cheapest shops around and it's fun to shop there, so lighten up, ok?

Miracle Whip is different than Mayonnaise. It’s more like a salad dressing w Mayo consistency.

Common thing here in the States. Five Below is supposed to be $5.00 or less but it’s not. Still some good bargains though. Also, 7-11 originally meant operation hours, from 7:00 am to 11:00 pm.

Miracle Whip is not really mayo. It has a much sweeter taste. You should try Dollar Tree in America! However the corporate for Dollar Tree just announced and increase to $1.25 for the items.
