Have anyone ever heard of a store called dirt cheap?
I went to Alabama last week and went in this store. You will never believe what I found!! I got this 30psi airbrush compressor for $10.00 (brand new) and a Britax carseat for my son for $50.00... They both were brand new, the box was just damaged. I also got this really cool coffee maker for $5, the original price was $79........

You are so lucky! I checked online to see what the store was. Is this link it?
They seem to only have locations in Alabama, Louisiana & Mississippi. Here's the link though, lots of locations:

antonia74, that's the place. Dirt cheap really looks like a salvage yard with good stuff, but Hudsons have designers cloths and Kitchen Aids for (get this) 75% off..... I these stores, but when I saw the Britax carseat, I knew I had hit the jackpot

LanaC, LOL

I am thinking that this would be similar to our XS Cargo.. Not sure if it's across Canada, or just Ontario.

I just looked online and they don't have air brushes though.. will have to check every once in a while as there stock does change frequently.

Never would have thought to check stores like this... good call Kris. Thanks!

Around here "Dirt Cheap" is a discount liquor and cigarette store. Tag lines include...'the more she drinks, the better you look' 'home of the 30 dime wine' and 'the last refuge for the persecuted smoker.'

Don't think I will find much there to decorate with! icon_rolleyes.gif

We have a store called Big Lot, I wonder if that is on the same line.
