Any Dollar Store in Cabarete
- Status
The dollar store between Sosua and Cabarete is not a dollar store anymore. It's a grocery store. There are a few items left from it's short venture as a dollar store- maybe an aisle or two. But the prices aren't necessarily a dollar.

The 10 y 20 peso store on Callejon de la Loma in Cabarete is like a North American dollar store with a wide variety of household goods to clothing and shoes. 20 peso laundry basket over 3 years old still does the job.
Okay. Are there any cheap shops in Cabarete where we can buy gifts, local stuff or souvenirs?
TIA
Great. Sounds like a good one to try. Can you please provide some directions to the store? Thank you.
You want inexpensive souvenirs, then you want the store across the street from Jose O'Shays, if I recall it is upstairs? Paintings, beaded garbage, Taino sculpture, painted masks...etc, all very cheap. I did not get the impression you were looking for a laundry basket!
Great! Now I got to find both these locations. Thanks.
The Callejon de la Loma location that Abuela mentioned seemed to indicate that they have clothes, which can be good gifts as well.
There is another store similar to the 20 Y 10 a bit farther down the Callejon on the same side of the street. Manaquins in the window, hard to miss. They are a mini department store. Not for tourist trinkits but inexpensive clothes etc. A mini mini La Sirena. I shop there often. Great place if you are looking for gifts for hotel staff.
The 10 y 20 peso store in Callejon is past the first intersection but before the little square. Its on the left, I estimate about 1/2 mile in. It has household items very cheap - plus lots of shoes for women, I noticed last trip.
The cheapest place for tourist stuff in Cabarete has always been the place on the second floor across from Jose O'Shay's on the little plaza which also has Western Union and the Blue Lagoon Hotel. It was called "Liquidation" last I knew and you can always get them down another 10%. The beach vendors trying to sell $1 trinkets for $20 hate the place.

last time i went in the liquidation place I noticed the clothing prices had risen quite a bit , didnt look at the other items, - decided not to spend 5oo pesos on a cheap pair of swimming shorts
the jewelery and paintings were good value on a previous trip
