Dollar Stores are a perfect place for bargain hunters of today. It is in the last two three decades that we have seen a phenomenal growth of Dollar Stores across the country. However, there certainly was a 5c to dollar store in Sackville.

As the name states, this was a store where items could be purchased anywhere from 5 cents to a dollar. The automobile in front of the store gives an idea of the time period of its existence. It was a mini version of a department store where many things of daily use were available.

Picture yourself living in the late 1800s or early 1900s. A dollar was a huge amount of money back then. The average salary across Canada ranged from $185 to $245 per year. You can well imagine the shopping experience in the 5C to Dollar Store.
