Large dollar store chains like Dollar General have gained popularity. Other chains, including some expanding to the US from abroad, attract budget-savvy customers. For some, including mid- and high-income shoppers, that's meant popping into dollar stores and other heavy discounters to buy everything from food to home goods. The dollar store chains are opening more stores to attract more customers. While Dollar General, Dollar Tree, and Family Dollar dominate the dollar store space in the US, there are other chains, including a couple of foreign competitors, worth getting to know.
