Online Retailer Merges Dollar Store and Deal of the Day Business Models in Tough Economy Enviroment

Oct. 20, 2010 - PRLog -- DollarStoreJunkie.com is a place for Dollar Store Junkies, Bargain Hunters, and Daily Deal shoppers to save from 75% to 99% off every single day. They offer internet shoppers a variety of name brand products for only $1 each, that last for up to 24 hours or until sold out. A new Dollar Deal of the Day is posted at Midnight everyday. DollarStoreJunkie.com specializes in products including DVDs, Music CDs, Karaoke Discs, Christian Products along with a variety of General Merchandise.

DollarStoreJunkie.com is not a new website, however, this is a new format they have adopted due to changes in online buying patterns, and the fact that consumers are heavily focused on the absolute best deal they can get. Founder and CEO Marshall Jackson Sr. said, "Our new format is extremely exciting and can be a very good step in the right direction for online shoppers. It is well reported that Offline Dollar Stores have become a preferred choice for shoppers, which makes the Online Dollar Deal of the Day format an even more feasible business model for us. The trend of Daily Deal sites has spiked over the last couple of years, so we decided to combine the Dollar Store concept with the Deal of the Day concept to create DollarStoreJunkie.com Dollar Deal of the Day to give consumers deals that usually can not be beat." He also admitted, "It is a major challenge deciding which products to offer and when, because there is not a lot of market research in this area; due to the fact, that we are the First Dollar Deal of the Day service. So we will have to test a wide variety of product lines which we hope could be an even more attractive situation for our customers, because they will see a unique mix of offers on a daily basis, while we are fine tuning what we offer."

DollarStoreJunkie.com http://www.dollarstorejunkie.com is owned and operated by The Power of Good Network Inc. Founder and CEO Marshall Jackson Sr. said, "We know that trying to combine the Offline Dollar Store shopping trend with the Online Deal of the Day shopping trend is a very risky proposition, but during a tough economy, this is the type of creative risk businesses need to make to get the attention of consumers right now. This is very important because the fact is, even though there are many more online shoppers now, they have less expendable income, so they are looking for extremely good deals (including shipping) when shopping online. Consumers will always want to shop for deals because it makes most people happy; however, if you don't have money you can not shop, or you have to become even more discount price savvy. We also know that Dollar Stores usually have a lot of junk, and Deal of the Day sites usually focus on more expensive products. So, we didn't want to offer a boring Online Dollar Store or Deal of the Day site, our goal is to give shoppers a unique experience Online with quality, heavily discounted Name Brand Products for only $1 each with Reasonable Shipping and Handling with Tracking."


The Online Dollar Store concept has not become a norm on the internet, as it seems Marshall is insinuating; however, you will probably continue to see the trend of more and more Deal of the Day sites. However, it just doesn't seem like many companies will be willing or able to deal with the increasing shipping cost and be able to offer $1 Deals that can not be particularly profitable, especially when companies are looking for maximum profitability, productivity, and clean balance sheets in a tough economy. So the Offline Dollar Store and the expensive Online Deal of the Day sites probably have little to worry about; however, DollarStoreJunkie.com may, in fact, become an extremely popular online destination during these tough economy times.
