99¢ and Beyond: A Series

The problem with 99¢ Stores these days is that hardly anything costs 99¢ anymore.  As it says in the photo below, everything costs 99¢ or more.  Mostly, everything costs $1.29, but when you find a really good 99¢ store - all bets are off. You might find that special Bok Choy Lamp you were looking for.  $29.99?  Here you go.  A giant lighter at $1.99 is totally reasonable.  And 6 multi-colored tiger-print padded bras for $20.99 is a tremendously good deal.  Anyhow, the next 10 or so posts are about a production mission that spanned almost every 99¢ Store along the 7 train in Queens - from Queensborough Plaza all the way to Junction Blvd.

Next time: MAIN STREET, FLUSHING.
