I never went to those shops that used to be called "$2 shops", recently I went into one close to my house and was surprised at how much stuff they had that was useful.
Exactly. I'd used to think it was all cheap disposable decorative or entertainment tat, but the better ones (Daiso esp) have all sorts of little useful things. I think I have a mini whisk, two small spatulas, a foldable clothes peg hoop, and various laundry bags from there. These have all lasted quite a few years and are useful and decently priced.
