Q:I overheard a funny conversation at the dollar store one time. It went something like, "Man I hate shoping at the dollar store. They make you think everything is so cheap that you end up bying so much more." I made a mental note of this. It was a fairly empty store and I found myself behind them at the cash register. I wasn't at all shocked to see a pile of useless stuff (at least in my opinion).

You hit the nail right on the head.  Stores use this tactics like this all the time to get you to spend more than you intended.
