I find lots of "look alike" products in the Dollar Store. My mom recently bought my daughter some cheap swim goggles at the Dollar Store. They already fell apart and she hasn't even used them yet. I think they lasted 5 min. I bought a vegetable peeler for there and it was so dull it wouldn't even peel the first apple. I can think of many items that just appear as the "real thing" but are not. And, since you only are paying $1 or so, you tend not to keep the receipt or to just toss it rather than actually go through the process of taking it back.
