I'm becoming obsessed with this....When I was a kid, my immigrant family never heard of a dollar store (this is back in the mid-80s), and so my 2nd grad classmates tried to explain the concept to me ("everything's a dollar!") in the way that only seven-year-old dumdums can, so I ran back to my Polish, non-English speaking family and told them all that there's a store where everything's a dollar. So, we went there like the Joads only to learn that not everything was a dollar...
Many stores pretend to have some kind of self respect and forbid filming inside their stores. Not good ole Dollar Tree she's got no such thing. I will be amazed if there were more than two employees working at that store. So be nice to your DG employees...they are really overworked. But DG? Girl you are an icon. Almost as iconic as Nick.
...all joking aside, if you lived in a small, smaller, now smallest town in the rolling hills of northern PA, you would kiss the ground on which DG (that's what we call it) is built. And before I rattle something more about this delightful episode by the 2nd best person in the world (yeah, Matteo is still #1) I must say that you are too used to the chic stores of NYC and if you had no other place to buy pasta... you'd buy the DG item and eat it with gusto! I am 80 and cannot get enough of you and Matteo on my computer. And, that magnificent coat you are wearing, is to DIE for! Your "haberdashery taste is beyond compare!" Matteo... not so much! But then I fell in love with him the first time I saw him! Italians always! (I am, that by the way!) Thank you for sharing your fabulous life with we who are doomed to die on DG sheets!
Now THAT is a coat, Nick. In Toronto, our Dollar Store - Dollarama - changed its name to Dollarama+ so that they could raise the prices. Still, it is less expensive than going to other stores. (Aside to other Torontonians: do you all remember when we had Biway stores? As a teen in the 80s I used to get designer Christina swimsuits for $15 which used to be $100 in the big department stores. Plus I got a designer trenchcoat with a wool zip in lining made in Romania for $20. I wore that coat for 10 years. They don't make stuff like that any more)
I wonder why you never went into modeling! You have the look. I can totally see you on the catwalk with a see-through shirt and a stoic facial expression.
I'm glad you made this because I've heard comedians make jokes about the dollar store. Their jokes are based on the notion that everything's $1, and it's not funny because If you've been in a dollar store in the last decade, you know it's not true and Nick you proved it! Keep up the great investigative reporting!😂
Hi Nick, spent yesterday crying off and on and feeling alone, then this morning I wake up to my favorite person who had a new video for me to watch. Thanks for making me smile.
The Dollar General in Coney Island Brooklyn needs to be condemned, its dark, dirty and dangerous looking. This place is looks amazing! Like freakin' Macy's in comparison.I love Dollar stores. Nick, you're awesome in the coat.
So happy I just saw this- I’m about to go to a dollar store ( in Ithaca my) to get streamers & balloons etc for my sons Bday party. This lifted my spirits & I will have so much fun there thinking of you now! ✨
My goodness, Nick in that coat is not something I thought I would wake up to today, but he makes it work. I hope he always has people to talk shit with.
Dollar Tree is so much better, price-wise! It took me years to start shopping there, but now I go often! I buy a lot for the classroom and since I don't get reimbursed, it pays to shop there! Love the bloopers Nick!
@@NickSmith09 The dumps ppl take in the Dollar Tree, General or Ross are something else! Like y'all sell air fresheners & candles... put it on the expense report. Glad u were able to get those sinuses cleared out though 🤣 Hopefully the smell didn't get into the coat 🤞🏽
I don’t know if it's the coat or the angle Nick is being filmed at in front of the store, but to me he looks like a news reporter on the scene of some heinous crime lol 😅
I used to work for Dollar Tree 11 years Asst Mgr Store Mgr. It was ok at first but they went public and cut so many hours and said Mr Store Mgr you are salaried and can work more hours 55-60 per week. I told them GFY. The lowest I go anymore is Walmart. Love the video.
Nick I cannotttt with your one liners 😂 also wth 7:48 this rude PA woman trying to send you to the park to film? It’s not like you were bothering her since she had to yell across the parking lot! 😂
I would totally enjoy videos of you just walking around stores and commentating about what you find. Coco Peru used to do videos like that and it was hilarious, and you're funny too so I bet it'd be really entertaining. You'd probably have great quips about stuff at like Home Goods, Cost Plus World Market, and TJ Maxx and the like. Just a thought.
You chose wisely! You should go to a Dollar Tree, where almost everything is $1.25 (inflation, you know). I found a pregnancy test there yesterday. Will wonders never cease.
Why is it giving me Scranton/Wilkes Barre/ Allentown vibes?! I work in Manhattan, but just bought a house in PA to get away from Manhattan. I like being able to walk outside and smell trees and flowers rather than raw sewage, I like seeing deer, bunnies, and bears, rather than homeless people using the corner of buildings as bathrooms. But, in the area thus far I have seen (other then massive candy and candle shops) it’s been one dollar store after another, and if isn’t a dollar store, it’s a liquor and cigarette store. It’s interesting. 😂
Nick! Omg. My father-in-law bought me 2 of those Bless this House fucking potholders. I almost cried laughing when you looked at them. They've become a family joke ever since Christmas. My sister-in-law got a sweater and an expensive candle. Clearly I am not the favorite 😂😂😂
Looking at Nick from behind... He looks like that comedy trope of when multiple kids wear a trench coat to pretend to be an adult.
LOL
So accurate.
Holy crap I read this before starting the video and at 0:37 I GASPED
Exactly what I was thinking, lol
Thank you!
Nick must have felt like a king among peasants in his Cruella Deville couture at the Dollar General
I was more the peasant amongst Kings!
That coat..l🖤🤍
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nick is somehow both the parent and child in the store.
😂😂
“You know there’s a park up the street why don’t you do that?” Lmao I need to see the rest of this interaction
It was WILD
@@NickSmith09please talk about it on the pod
I would love to see the look on Matteo’s face if you gave him Dollar General spaghetti for Christmas 😂
😂
Matteo would use it for an art project
This is the quality content I come to UA-cam for.
'I've had worse' - THAT's the kind of positivity I like about Nick
😂😂
I’m starting to pepper that phrase into my daily vocabulary 😂
The Dippin' Dots hand sanitizer was the most excellent choice.
Truly wild
Nick went back home and willingly risked his life at the Dollar General. Bless him
😂
"That was my nickname in..." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🖤
the only thing missing is the review of the sanitizer 😂
It was not good🥴
I love how mean to each other matteo and nick are. It still shows they care about each other so much😂
😂
Love the bloopers reel!!
It was a real challenge trying to film😂
@@NickSmith09please tell me what this people said in the Bloopers

We support The DG on this Channel!
I was expecting to hear complaints and criticism about the Dollar General, but to my surprise, I actually enjoyed it.
I love the DG!

Dollorama? What a fun name!!
Indeed, Dollarama chain! Canadian chain. Decent place and clean/organized.
I wonder why you never went into modeling! You have the look. I can totally see you on the catwalk with a see-through shirt and a stoic facial expression.
Thank you!
I’ve thought the same thing! Nick is so handsome!
30k more subscribers till Nick posts a singing video!
Your videos always help me survive work 😂
❤️
Your "one liners" is why I'm here! (ex., "I've had worse.") Still laughing a few hours later.
"Flame Glow? That was my nickname in high school." 🤣 Loved your take on DG, Nick!
I was saying "get the Dippin Dots sanitizer" and yay! you did, you magical human💖💖
You spoke it into existence!
Nick always here to entertain and I love it! ❤️ Making me laugh every week! Welcome my fellow Pennsylvanian. 😁
❤️
Under cabinet jar opener... I had to google it. Then I had to google who invented it. Such educational 5 min!
I may need to do the same!
That coat is the perfect choice for shopping at DG 😆. I was hoping you went for that sparkle baseball hat lol
I should have!
You always manage to brighten my way with your humor! Don’t stop!!!
❤️
I'm glad you made this because I've heard comedians make jokes about the dollar store. Their jokes are based on the notion that everything's $1, and it's not funny because If you've been in a dollar store in the last decade, you know it's not true and Nick you proved it!

I should work for 60 minutes! 😂
Our version in the UK is called Poundland, there was also a rival chain called Poundworld. And yes I am childish and find the name funny too.
Poundland!? Omg love!
Hi Nick, spent yesterday crying off and on and feeling alone, then this morning I wake up to my favorite person who had a new video for me to watch. Thanks for making me smile.
❤️
lol "do I look gay?" Yes Nick, it's the hat.....😂😂😂
But only the hat right?😜
@@NickSmith09 totally passing for straight otherwise 😂😂. Come visit us in Australia, Nick.
nick’s personality is giving everything!
You're killing me 😂 Keep them coming, I'm from Greece, so these types of videos are both entertaining and educating
Also, THEE COAT
❤️

@NickSmith09 oh yeah, tell me about it....😂
It can be! 😘
It can be! 😘
It can be! 😘
Omg yes it's true! The dollar store is getting so expensive it's ridiculous! 😆
Crazy!
Nick, love how you blend in with your home-town full length checkerboard jacket!
They're used to it at this point😂
"I gotta say I wouldn't (wear it)" from the man who wore a SURGICAL GOWN as a shirt? 😂😂
LOVE THIS! I'd like to say only in Pennsylvania, but I know that's not so.
My goodness, Nick in that coat is not something I thought I would wake up to today, but he makes it work. I hope he always has people to talk shit with.
😂❤️
I'm just surprised you could walk up and down the aisle without bumping into boxes. 😅 My DG always has boxes in the aisles.
This one was actually pretty organized
That is the truth!! This is cleanest, most organized DG I've ever seen
John Oliver did a deep dive on dollar stores and why there are always boxes in the aisles
Mission accomplished. Everything can go back to normal. 😂😂😂
I’d love to see Nick sell something on QVC LOL 😆 THIS WAS A HOOT!
I would LOVE to be on QVC
2:44 That "No" is sooo Coco Peru.
I need that Dolly Parton CD NOW! 🤣🤣🤣
This video is everything I never knew I needed…now go to the Dollar Tree Nick! They raised the prices there too!
Bloopers are everything ❤
Dollar Tree is so much better, price-wise! It took me years to start shopping there, but now I go often! I buy a lot for the classroom and since I don't get reimbursed, it pays to shop there!
Love the bloopers Nick!
To end on the someone 💩😂
Bloopers are always a plus! Pretty sure u bake with love & a smidge of hate 😊
Thanks for the content 💚
It smelled HORRIBLE

Will do!
@NickSmith09 in Minnesota we have Dollar General, Family Dollar and Dollar tree. Very few items are a Dollar anymore. 😠
Flame Glow? That was my nickname in high school
Froth King? That was my nickname in college 😂😂😂😂 you are too silly I’m cackling 😂
😂
This is my favorite day because Nick released a video!
❤️
Nick I cannotttt with your one liners 😂 also wth 7:48 this rude PA woman trying to send you to the park to film? It’s not like you were bothering her since she had to yell across the parking lot! 😂
Me, a terminally theater kid: The coat is giving "I know him so well"
Duet from 1987 in aisle 3!
Bless you.
Love the whole video but the blooper section was gold 😂
The only joy in what appears in a horribly joyless place is Nick and his eye for all of the rainbows.
Good job, N.! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I’m tellin’ ya- I’m a retired chef and my own pizza doesn’t even always have that awesome CRUNCH that yours had! 🍕🍕🍕😊😊😊
Another cinematic masterpiece! Once again you prove to be much funnier than Matteo! Hopefully, you will grant us a video with your singing.
If I hit 50k subs I'll post me singing!
Nick,You would be so much fun to go shopping with. I Love your videos. Thank you
❤️
I wanna make jokes about the coat, but really, I just like it. It looks so comfortable.
A nice Dollar Store shopping trip. I've loved them with Coco Peru, so why not Nick Smith?!?! What could be better?
I want those baskets.
I could listen to nick talk for hours
Call 911! King Nick has been kidnapped and forced to shop at a dollar store.
Nooo I LOVE the DG!
@@NickSmith09 when you come to London you have to do one of these in Primark
This was GENIUS, I wet my pants! Need those dippin dots hand sanitizer 🤮 😂
Listen as a Swiss person this was wild in SO many ways
Do they not have dollar stores there?
@@NickSmith09 it's Switzerland, breathing costs here!
I love me a so-called dollar store and some Nick Smith! This is one of my favorite videos so far. 🦥🍪🦄

that coat tho...straight out of Moo Moo Land...is he bringing Tammy Wynette back from the grave...lol
😭😂
Loved this so much 😂
Queen to bishop six, check! Damn, your coat is stunning!
It’s giving Cruella Deville meets Dollar General
Had me giggling like a little school girl 😂😂😂❤
Good Lord. I couldn't think of a less "Nick" place. Lol 😂😂
Oh but it is a very me place!😂
Nick is so handsome! I love “Is it for your cheese?” 😅
Here in the south it’s called the dollar Genttral or Mini Walmart🤣
The cool people in town just call it "The DG"
Every dollar general is the same. lol. Including all the carts outside by the entrance.
😂
I love the comments. You say what I would or what I think. BTW love your coat.
❤️
The coat was an easter egg for the selected item.
😂
The coat is fire
😂 i think ima hafta watch this at least one more time! and why the heck does nick look so tall in DG? 😆
The actress Indya Moore is in Escape Room :) She's great in it.
You chose wisely! You should go to a Dollar Tree, where almost everything is $1.25 (inflation, you know). I found a pregnancy test there yesterday. Will wonders never cease.
A pregnancy test for 1.25?? I wouldn't trust that..😂
@@NickSmith09 As a friend of mine wisely noted, "more like 99% inaccurate!" 😀
First, of all you found a nice cleanish Dollar General. You don’t want to know what I seen in ours down here.😮
"something something gay innuendo"...genius
I knew you would like this. Peace & Love
I think this is the greatest video on youtube.
❤️😂
“Sizable ass” happened to not be my nickname in college
LOL @ that random woman that interrupted your video to tell you guys to go elsewhere. Good ol' rural Pennsyltucky.
😂😂
Not the woman telling you to go to the park lmao
For a second, I thought I was watching Coco Peru!
