Online Retailer Launches a New Online Dollar Store at DollarStoreJunkie.com in Response to a Slowing Economy.

“The tough economy is creating a huge community of Dollar Store Junkies looking to stretch their dollars as far as they can. DollarStoreJunkie.com is a New Online Dollar Store that sells name brand products for $1 to $5 each, which equates to up to 80% off.”


Champaign, IL - Feburary 19, 2009 - The newly launched DollarStoreJunkie.com is a place for “Dollar Store Junkies” to shop online. They offer internet shoppers name brand discounted products all for $.99 to $9.99 each, including Educational Products, Electronic Accessories, Licensed Gifts & Collectibles, Karaoke CDGs, Office & School Supplies, Toys & Games, along with a variety of General Merchandise. Their new site at http://www.dollarstorejunkie.com gives online consumers the ability to save up to 80% off the Suggested Retail Prices on a variety of name brand products. Not only do they offer very low prices, because they are part of The Power of Good Network Inc., they also donate 5% of all product sales to Elementary, Middle, and High Schools Nationwide. To deal with the tough issue of online shipping, which usually changes good online deals to O.K. deals or not good deals at all, they charge a flat $5.95 for your entire order or Free Shipping & Handling on orders of $30 or more.

DollarStoreJunkie.com is owned and operated by The Power of Good Network Inc. Founder and CEO Marshall Jackson Sr. said, “We know the Dollar Store shopping trend is becoming more and more popular, which we wanted to bring online; however, we also know that Dollar Stores usually have a lot of junk. We didn’t want to offer just any old Dollar Store online, our goal is to give shoppers a unique experience Online with quality, heavily discounted Name Brand Products from $.99 to $9.99 each. This is very important because the fact is, even though there are more online shoppers now, they have less expendable income, so they are looking for extremely good deals (including shipping) when shopping online.”

The Power of Good Network Inc. believes consumers will enjoy DollarStoreJunkie.com prices and fast service. It is interesting that the internet doesn’t already have a lot of Dollar Stores, so they may be on to something. Founder and CEO Marshall Jackson Sr. said, “Our new format is extremely exciting and can be a very good step in the right direction for online shoppers. It is well reported that Offline Dollar Stores are currently a preferred choice for shoppers, which makes the Online Dollar Store format an even more feasible business model for us. In the past, it would have been very hard to bring the popular Dollar Store Industry to the internet, because of the low profit margins and the volume of sales it takes to offset the ever increasing shipping and handling cost, especially with the need to offer online shoppers Free Shipping Promotions.” He also admitted, “It is a challenge getting the right mix of products for an Online Dollar Store, because there is not a lot of market research in this area; due to the fact that there are very few, if any, serious Online Dollar Stores. So we will have to test a wide variety of product lines which could be an even more attractive situation for our customers, because they will see frequent product additions to our catalog, while we are fine tuning our product mix.”

The Online Dollar Store concept will probably not become a norm on the internet, as it seems Marshall is insinuating; however, you will probably see a few more Online Dollar Stores. It just doesn’t seem like many companies will be willing or able to deal with the increasing shipping cost and be able to make Free Shipping offers that online shoppers really prefer, especially when companies are looking for maximum productivity and scrubbing their balance sheets in a tough economy. So the Offline Dollar Store probably has little to worry about; however, DollarStoreJunkie.com may, in fact, become a very popular online destination.
