Classic dime stores, also known as five and dimes, were variety stores from years ago that originally sold merchandise for a dime.
Unfortunately, as times changed, that price point wasn’t entirely practical, which is why many dime stores closed, except for a handful that remained across the country.
Open for well over 25 years, The Dime Store has become a fan-favorite within Buena Vista, where locals can go and find everything they need at a bargain price.
