Right now is the best time to start a $1, $2, $3 Dollar store as the majority of shoppers are seeking the best possible value for their budgets. A recent survey indicated that 70% of shoppers felt they have been “price gouged” by their grocery store! This survey also showed that a large majority of shoppers surveyed said that “price and convenience were most important to them when choosing a place to shop.” $1, $2, $3 Stores are the least expensive destination for items your customers want and need every day, AND our stores offer convenience and a pleasant shopping experience.
Shoppers have migrated from the large grocery chains for everything other than perishable items like milk, meat and eggs. $1, $2, $3 stores sit in prime position to provide great every day values on items such as national brand cleaning products, bathroom and kitchen cleaners, personal grooming items like soap, hair products and many other personal items. In a recent Supermarket News survey one respondent reported that "Dollar stores are capturing paper products and cleaning products away from supermarkets...." Snack and food items are also extremely popular at the $1, $2, $3 price points. Balloons, toys, holiday decorations, reading glasses and other popular ancillary items are also a large factor in the popularity of these stores.
Taking Advantage of the Dollar Store Economy
The Dollar Store industry is a $60 BILLION business, and growing every year! The fact is that dollar stores are in huge demand today as is evidenced by the dramatic stock price increases for the large corporate owned dollar store chains such as Dollar Tree, Dollar General, Family Dollar and 99 cents only. During a time where most companies are looking for a corner to hide in on Wall Street the dollar store giants continue to outperform expectations by wide margins. The success of these industry leaders is also translating into the development of independent dollar type stores which are springing up all over the country as entrepreneurs are joining the burgeoning industry. An individual is not able to own one of the chain stores, so we have been developing stores (over 3,500) just like them, for entrepreneurs just like YOU, since 1993.
Our store development program will give you the look and feel of a national chain store, while leaving you in total control of your own business. We do not charge fees or royalties, but we do provide all the benefits of a franchise, with the exception that we do not restrict your business like other franchise opportunities -- this is YOUR store, and you are free to operate it as you choose. Every store package includes our 7 key services; financing assistance, site location assistance, lease negotiation, comprehensive training, full store set up, access to our supplier network, and the best long term support in the industry. We deliver a fully stocked and ready-to-open store in as little as 7 days after our arrival on site!

PostalAnnex+
Today's busy lifestyles demand the services PostalAnnex offers. Capitalize on this demand and open your own business!! After retiring from the printing business PostalAnnex founder Jack Lentz began working out of his home as a business consultant. He soon realized the need for mailing faxing copying shipping and other services to belong under one roof. As a result he created the first PostalAnnex store business franchise located next door to a post office in the University City neighborhood of San Diego CA. Our franchises serve a growing customer base of small and home-based businesses that lacks the resources our stores offer. Today's hectic lifestyle requires a one-stop service center for businesses that don't have an administrative assistant to take care of those daily errands. Saving our consumers time is what keeps them coming back. By being a local neighborhood business. "
