    And didn’t one of these dollar stores by out another of the big three? I swear, it’s the illusion of choice

      Dollar Tree bought Family Dollar. Hence them being the same store (it’s not two dollar stores right next to each other).

      Why two signs, idfk. Maybe they were worried people would be upset that their beloved Family Dollar was replaced with Dollar Tree, so they’re easing people in by making it clear they’re the same thing
