![Walmart is known for stellar deals, but these days it has some serious competition from dollar stores. A recent price comparison of 42 products showed Walmart neck-and-neck with Family Dollar and Dollar General, which sell party supplies and seasonal items, office and school supplies, personal care products, household goods, and other merchandise for less than $10.Analysts expect to see even lower prices at Family Dollar now that the chain is merging with Dollar Tree, where everything really does cost no more than $1. This aggressive pricing model helps consumers find better bargains at Dollar Tree than Walmart on many low-cost items. On a recent shopping trip, Cheapism.com rounded up 28 Dollar Tree products that cost less than the cheapest comparable item at Walmart. (Dollar Tree doesn't carry many national brands, so in most cases, it wasn't possible to compare identical products.)]({"default":"//img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AAc6qHE.img?h=240&w=300&m=6&q=60&u=t&o=t&l=f&f=jpg&x=991&y=1009","size1rowsize2column":"//img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AAc6qHE.img?h=152&w=300&m=6&q=60&u=t&o=t&l=f&f=jpg&x=991&y=1009","size1rowsize3column":"//img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AAc6qHE.img?h=152&w=300&m=6&q=60&u=t&o=t&l=f&f=jpg&x=991&y=1009","size1rowsize4column":"//img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/amp/entityid/AAc6qHE.img?h=152&w=300&m=6&q=60&u=t&o=t&l=f&f=jpg&x=991&y=1009"} "Walmart is known for stellar deals, but these days it has some serious competition from dollar store... - qvist/shutterstock")
