said so far the store's weekly sales for 2002 increased 18 to 30 percent compared to weekly sales for 2001.
Merrill Lynch analyst Dan Barry recently published a report on why investors should buy dollar store stocks, noting the industry was expected to have an average annual growth of 17 percent over the next five years.
One reason for this growth is that dollar stores offer consumers low-priced products such as food, health and beauty aids, automotive supplies, housewares, toys and paper goods.
Massissou Hathoura, Ndjamena, Chad, graduate student, said he shopped at Family Dollar with his wife and daughter at least once or twice a week. He said he shopped there for toiletries, beverages and batteries.
Campbell said her store attracted a lot of college students.
"Let's face it — students have to work and have to make every penny count." Campbell said.
But students aren't the only consumers who can appreciate the bargains at dollar stores. Even though Deals is located within a half mile of KMart, Wal-Mart, Target and Kohl's, Diane Dethloff, Lawrence resident, said she shopped at Deals for the low prices.
Deals is the only dollar store in Lawrence where everything literally costs $1 or less. Prices at Family Dollar range from $1 to $20, and from $1 to $35 at Dollar General
"You can go there even if you don't have much money and find something you need," she said.
"It's very difficult to add late additions to a parade."
Dethlloff left Deals with a cheese grater, three hooks, a Jiffy pizza crust and 12 AAA batteries. Her total: $3.76.

"It if was half of that number, I would question what was going on," Waldorf said.

Gordon said the committee spent six hours deliberating on whether to disqualify the groups.
Delta Delta Delta and Phi Delta Theta, who had paired up for the parade, also will be absent from the parade but were disqualified for a different reason. The two houses failed to meet the application deadline. Natalie Gervat, homecoming chair for Delta Delta Delta, said much of the confusion originated because her house didn't receive a homecoming application in the mail as it had in previous years.
Gordon said applications,
which were due Friday, Sept. 27, were available at three locations on campus; the Dean of Students office, the Student Union Activities office and the office of Organization and Leadership.
Delta Delta Delta and Phi Delta Theta are still able to participate in the sidewalk chalk competition and the canned food construction, Gervat said.
"We're disappointed, but we're happy that we can participate in something this year," Gervat said.

Israeli troops roll into Palestinian territory
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM - Israeli armored vehicles rolled into the Palestinian parts of the divided West Bank city of Hebron Tuesday, after Prime Minister Ariel Sharon defended an Israeli raid in Gaza that resulted in the deaths of 16 Palestinians.
The White House criticized Israel over the civilian casualties, and said President Bush was deeply concerned. "The president urges Israel to minimize the
At the Gaza-Egypt border on Tuesday, a 10-year-old Palestinian girl was shot and killed by Israeli soldiers, residents and doctors said. The Israeli military said two soldiers were wounded by Palestinian gunfire but had no information about Palestinian casualties.
risk to civilian populations,"said spokesman Ari Fleischer Fleischer.
Palestinian gunmen fired at an Israeli vehicle near Hebron, wounding four Israelis, one critically. Other attackers shot at one of the Israeli enclaves in the tense city from a Palestinian neighborhood, just before Israeli armored personnel carriers moved in and imposed a curfew, the military and witnesses said.
Sharon said Israel would not stop sending its forces into Palestinian areas to confront militants.
Hebron is the only West Bank city split into Israeli and Palestinian-controlled zones.
He dismissed American and
other criticism of araid Monday in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis, in which 16 Palestinians were killed and more than 100 wounded. Sharon expressed regret at civilian deaths, but declared, "There is a need to be certain that terrorist organizations will not have the freedom to carry out intentional murder."
"The operation was a successful operation. ... There will be more operations in Gaza," Sharon said.
Americans among Nobel Prize winners
The Associated Press
STOCKHOLM, Sweden - A Japanese and two American astrophysicists won the Nobel Prize in physics yesterday for using some of the most obscure particles and waves in nature to increase understanding of the universe.
Riccardo Giacconi, 71, of the Associated Universities Inc. in Washington, D.C., will get half of the $1 million prize for his role in "pioneering contributions to astrophysics, which have led to the discovery of cosmic X-ray sources."
Raymond Davis Jr., 87, of the University of Pennsylvania shares the other half of the prize with Japanese scientist Masatoshi Koshiba, 76, of the University of Tokyo. The two men pioneered the construction of giant underground chambers to detect neutrinos, elusive particles that stream from the sun by the billion.
Neutrinos offer a unique view of the sun's inner workings because they are produced in its heart by the same process that causes it to shine. Davis' early experiments, performed during the 1960s in a South Dakota gold
mine, confirmed that the sun is powered by nuclear fusion.
His experiments were described in the citation as "considerably more difficult than finding a particular grain of sand in the whole of the Sahara desert."
Koshiba won his share of the prize for his work at the Kamiokande neutrino detector in Japan. That experiment confirmed and extended Davis' work, and also discovered neutrinos coming from distant supernova explosions, some of the brightest objects in the universe.
The Italian-born Giacconi, a U.S. citizen, was cited for building the first X-ray telescopes that provided "completely new — and sharp — images of the universe," the academy said. He is currently president of Associated Universities Inc., a nonprofit corporation that operates several astronomical observatories for the academic research community.
Giacconi's research laid the foundation for X-ray astronomy, which has led to the discovery of black holes and allowed researchers to peer deep into the hearts of the dusty young galaxies where stars are born.
