I used to love shopping at the DOLLARAMA store - a Canadian 'dollar store', (read more about it on MFS-Canada) when everything was a dollar. All you North Americans will know what I'm talking about. These dollar stores have been popping up all over the place like a bad penny. I couldn't believe everything in the store was for a dollar when they first opened. Then a year or so later, it was 'a dollar or two'. I was still fine with that. After all, we all knew EVERY, SINGLE, SOLITARY thing in that store was MADE IN CHINA. These kind of stores make it so hard for us to support our economy in terms of 'buying locally made products', but that's a whole other story I won't be getting into right now.
Anyways, so then it went from a dollar or two to three dollars or more, on a lot of items.
Now, you still find things here and there for a dollar but mostly it's 2.25 or 3.25 so now the store is just called DOLLARMA - $1 Plus. P-lease. Who are they trying to kid? Now you have to be careful what you pick up since not everything is a buck or two anymore. (By the way, there's also another Canadian dollar store called A Buck or Two, lol).

Happily, by chance, I found a new store - Dollar Tree store, where EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING is for a $1.25 or LESS!! This discount chain store is American operating in various parts of Canada.
Look what I bought for $10 (before taxes):
MY SCORE!: A B&D RECHARGEABLE SPOTLIGHT FOR $11.99
Besides, it was only later I realized it would be most beneficial for me when it's time to enter the dreaded attic. There are no windows in this attic, it is as pitch black as can be so I thought this spotlight would come in handy. Money well spent!.. I thought.
You can also use it in many other places as suggested on the box:
Now if only I could use it right away but it says it has to be charged for 24 hrs!
UPDATE!

Ok, it seemed to take forever to charge but I don't know if it was because I would plug it out at night and re-plug it in the morning but eventually I just used it. I was waiting for the charger light to turn green - it never did. Anyways, it gives off a really bright light, almost like a beam and the other light setting seams 'normal'. Either way, so far it seems like a good score.
I'll be trying it out in the attic for a true test and will be getting back to you with the results....
