$1.03?

[–]TheNightkin 45 points46 points ago

Where I live it's $1.08.

[–]twonx 32 points33 points ago

He's talking about dolla - tree. As in $1.03.

[–]TheNightkin 17 points18 points ago

Ohhhhhhhhhhh. That went right over my head. Thank you everyone for not wooshing.

[–]craniumonempty 13 points14 points ago

What's a whoosh?

[–]TheNightkin 14 points15 points ago

I ain't falling for that, son.

What?

[–]KAM1KAZ3 0 points1 point ago

Yes?

[–]HittingSmoke 2 points3 points ago

It would be a $1.09 in WA. 8.6% rounds to 9% on a single dollar.

[–]KAM1KAZ3 2 points3 points ago

True. I'm just used to seeing $1.08 after buying things that are $.99

[–]TheNightkin 0 points1 point ago

Thank you.... so much

[–]I_am_a_mormon 0 points1 point ago

No problem at all, that guy is the greatest.

[–]TheLeMoNjUiCe191 -3 points-2 points ago

Romney?, is that you?

[–]I_am_a_mormon -1 points0 points ago

Just gearing up for 2016 by helping people on Reddit. Oh, and counting my money, but don't worry about that bit.

[–]bartonar 0 points1 point ago

If you really think about it, and assume that all the same candidates run for 2016 except Obama and Ron Paul*, I have to hope that Romney gets the GOP nomination. He was far better than Gringrich, Santorum, and Perry.

*Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he say he wasn't going to run again?

[–]I_am_a_mormon -1 points0 points ago

I don't think that Ron Paul has said anything officially one way or the other. But I wholeheartedly agree with you on Romney. Though, this election I voted for him (No, not because he's mormon...), since I approve of a lot of his economic plans, though I don't really like alot of his other things like reinstating "Don't Ask, Don't Tell".

[–]mrpapagiorgio 17 points18 points ago

so i'm guessing you were using Dollar Tree bags...?

[–]Sinnic 13 points14 points ago

He was using Dolla Tree bags. They had the bottom out.

[–]fentooooon 11 points12 points ago

Every time I saw that gif on the frontpage earlier and I realize I could've gotten the karma

[–]tedjurke 6 points7 points ago

I tried for the longest time to understand this, the only thing I get about this is the song it references.

[–]The_Doctor_Bear 0 points1 point ago

Sloths are hard as fuck man. That's all there is to it.

[–]TheLeMoNjUiCe191 0 points1 point ago

But you're only a bear doctor, what do you know?.

[–]The_Doctor_Bear 3 points4 points ago

I majored in slothology, with a minor in gangsterism.

[–]coming_out 1 point2 points ago

[–]iantheoreo 1 point2 points ago

I don't know why this is so funny.

[–]ChowChingHurr 0 points1 point ago

Came here expecting to see this. Not disappointed.

[–]kansakw3ns 23 points24 points ago

There's a Canadian drug store called Shoppers Drug Mart, and for a long time the sign burnt out to say "SHOPPERS RUG MAT". I always giggled to myself imagining it was secretly some kind of carpet warehouse.

[–]new-socks 18 points19 points ago

Roger Dolla Tree!

[–]mweebles 43 points44 points ago

Dammit Nessie! I ain't giving you no tree fiddy!

[–]trampus1 22 points23 points ago

Yes, but did it make you holla?

Edit: This post now has 123 points, also mildly interesting.

[–]mistertheinternet 8 points9 points ago

[–]m0use44 4 points5 points ago

There used to be a place near me called Dynasty Chinese Food. The sign read nasty Chinese Food for months.

[–]onca51 1 point2 points ago

"Dreams of me getting shaded under a [dolla] tree."

[–]WithKenKaniff 0 points1 point ago

Don't worry, your lyric didn't go unnoticed. Got the K. dot reference

[–]onca51 0 points1 point ago

Holla if you shop there!

[–]huntnm -1 points0 points ago

Still makes perfectly good sense.

[–]daggerx222 -1 points0 points ago

This seems appropriate.

[–]bang_Noir -1 points0 points ago

Also mildly interesting, I literally just walked through the door and sat down from there.

The "r" is always out at the store by me too. I smell a conspiracy.

[–]eatchit -1 points0 points ago

finally something truly mildly interesting.

[–]N4N4KI -1 points0 points ago

All it needs now is a capital I before the DOLLA

[–]MattTheMilkMan -1 points0 points ago

Ghetto... Just like its shoppers!! Source: I shop there too.

[–]AntwanOfNewAmsterdam -1 points0 points ago

Seems to indicate then poor, trash homies particular customer type of Dollar Tree, although a Dr. Pepper and a box of candy for a movie is enough reason to "haul yo white ass to Dolla Tree"

[–]spartan4333 1 point2 points ago

To be honest, dolla is how most of dollar tree's customers pronounce dollar.

[–]Kriegan -1 points0 points ago

A friend of mine used to scout a local dollar tree for older single women. "Dude, look at where they shop. They're cheap and they don't expect a whole lot.". He referred to it as the "Holla Tree"

[–]Just_Like_You 1 point2 points ago

As a former employee, this is a much more accurate representation of the franchise.

[–]swisherleigh -1 points0 points ago

Are you up north in the USA somewhere my cousin dollar tree is dolla as well

[–]thiazzi -1 points0 points ago

This is similar to when I saw "ROSS: Dress fo less"

[–]knightoftheking -1 points0 points ago

Dolla Dolla Tree, Y'all

[–]Dreadnaught_179 -1 points0 points ago

One dolla make you holla!

[–]Icommanduall -1 points0 points ago

"Hey little dude across the street, lemme hold a dolla."

[–]SicknessIsFree 0 points1 point ago

Used to be a converted ice cream truck that drove around town with food, ice cream, and random miscellaneous items...It was called "The Holla Dolla"

[–]kenba2099 0 points1 point ago

I love when burned-out lights change the meaning hilariously. When Bank of America used to be Fleet Bank, the L was missing. It was Feet Bank.

[–]mozingo46 0 points1 point ago

[–]i-like-robots 0 points1 point ago

I once saw a Big Lots with the L burnt out. It said Bigots.

[–]Metaphoricalsimile -1 points0 points ago

So if r/mildlyinteresting is a place for posts that just aren't WTF enough to belong in r/WTF, is there a subreddit for things that just aren't mildly interesting enough for r/mildlyinteresting? This post should be there.

[–]rollerpigeons -1 points0 points ago

This looks like the Dolla Tree in Bay Point, CA, or as the locals call it, "knife point". That wouldn't be the Dolla Tree, would it?

[–]worff[S] 1 point2 points ago

Nope, this one's in Richmond, VA.

[–]rollerpigeons 1 point2 points ago

ahh ok, thanks!

[–]Sasquatch99 0 points1 point ago

Wow, dude, weird. I saw this picture and sent it to my friend who works at dollar tree because these pictures always humor her. She was certain it was her store so I came to the comments and sure enough. This is the store she works at. Now she is super excited because she has wanted their sign to say that for a while.

[–]Shnikes[!] 0 points1 point ago

Must be a Boston store.
