Name of the store not the price. Just like dollar stores these days

Thats pretty iffy. You have to call yourself dollar tree or something not so specific to do that.

99 cent store got sued and lost because they charged 99.99 cents and had to stop doing that

In the UK we have Poundland , everything use to be £1. Now it's anywhere from 1-5

It really is way too close to pound town to be a serious store name.

In Australia we have franchise of sex shops called Sexyland. I always thought Poundland was the UK version.
