17 Dollarama products that look way more expensive than they actually are

Drink glasses

Dollarama always has an impressive selection of drink glasses, and these tall ribbed ones are some of the nicest I've come across. They look like they were made for an iced coffee, and at just $1.50 each, you could stock up on a full set without spending too much.

Price: $1.50

Hanging wall mirror

This was the first time I've ever come across a hanging wall mirror at Dollarama. Although it's on the smaller side, the style is really sleek and modern. I think it would look nice in a bathroom, entryway, or small apartment where space is limited.

Price: $4.50

Fine porcelain coffee cup and saucer set 

I was shocked when I came across this fine porcelain coffee cup and saucer set at Dollarama. For $5, you get eight pieces that would easily cost $30 or more at stores like HomeSense or Kitchen Stuff Plus. Whether you're serving coffee or tea, this set is great to have when you're hosting. I'm kicking myself for not grabbing it when I had the chance.

Price: $5

Serving plates

I think Dollarama has some beautiful serving plates and platters, and the quality rivals what you'd find at specialty kitchen stores. I've been buying my serving plates at Dollarama for years and have never been disappointed. They look elegant on the table, and nobody would ever guess where I actually got them and for how much.

Price: $3.50

Oil and vinegar bottle set 

This stainless steel oil-and-vinegar set from Dollarama is a nice addition to your kitchen counter or dinner table. The stainless steel finish gives it a sleek, high-end look you wouldn't expect at a discount store.

If you're looking for a stylish way to store oil and vinegar without spending a lot, this is for you.

Price: $5

Glass candle holder set 

How cute is this glass candle holder set at Dollarama? For just $5, you get two glass candle holders, a diffuser bottle and a mirror tray. It's the kind of set you'd easily pay over $20 for at a home decor store. The mirror tray alone gives it an elevated look that would fit right in on a dresser, bathroom counter or living room table.

Price: $5

Decorative two-tier tray

Another great decorative piece is this two-tier tray from Dollarama. You can fill it with picture frames, small plants or other home decor items. Its neutral design works with just about any aesthetic and in any room.

Price: $5

Bamboo corner shelf 

If you're running low on cupboard or counter space, this bamboo corner shelf is a really great find. Bamboo shelving like this looks like it costs way more than $5. It could also work well in a bathroom or a bedroom.

Price: $5

Accent tables

Accent tables can get expensive quickly, so finding these at Dollarama for $5 each was a pleasant surprise. The lion design is adorable for a kids' playroom or nursery, while the second option is more versatile and could work in just about any space. Either way, these look like they cost way more than they do.

Price: $5

Make-up mirror with LED light

This make-up mirror with LED light is a complete steal at Dollarama. These typically sell for at least $20 or more on Amazon. Don't hesitate if you see it at your local store.

Price: $5.30

Makeup brush cleaner 

How cool is this makeup brush cleaner? I've always washed my brushes with soap and water, which works fine, but this machine definitely elevates the whole process. It spins the brushes inside the cup to clean and dry them in seconds, much faster and more thoroughly than doing it by hand. Out of curiosity, I checked how much these sell for on Amazon, and they start around $25.

Price: $5.55

Tabletop water fountain

Tabletop fountains are not cheap, so these ones at Dollarama seem like an incredible deal. The gentle sound of running water makes it a lovely addition to a desk, bathroom counter or bedroom nightstand, and it looks far more expensive than it actually is.

Price: $5

Cheese board

If you love a charcuterie night, Dollarama has a great selection of bamboo boards, including this one that basically spells out what it's for.

Price: $4.25

LED vanity mirror

Another great find in the beauty aisle is this LED vanity mirror, compact enough to use at home or toss in your bag when you travel. A similar mirror at a store or online would cost significantly more, and this one does the same job.

Price: $5

Vases

If you're not buying your vases at Dollarama, you're missing out. You won't find such nice vases for under $5 anywhere else. These have an elegant design that looks right at home on a dining table, shelf, or windowsill.

Price: $4.50

Candles

If you love candles but can't justify spending more than $15 on one, check your local Dollarama. These candles look similar to ones you would find at home decor stores like HomeSense, where you can definitely pay more than $5.

Price: $5

Accessory tray 

This accessory tray has serious marble vibes and definitely looks like it costs more than what Dollarama sells it for. Use it for soap, jewellery, perfume bottles, or skincare products in your bathroom or bedroom.

Price: $3.25
