If you don't shop at Dollarama all the time, you might not realize that there's a grocery section.
That means you can get cheap groceries and household essentials at the discount retailer.
It's not just home decor, organizers, craft supplies, toys, and more products for around the house.
You can actually do most of your grocery shopping at Dollarama since the retailer offers pretty much everything except for fruits, vegetables, meat and dairy.
Especially if you're only shopping for yourself, grocery products at the discount retailer are smaller so it might make more sense to get them at Dollarama rather than Costco which has bulk-sized items.
