A Dollar Store's Rich Allure in India
(openPR) - MUMBAI, India - Corporate Lawyer Archana Singh travels to Europe every year and returns laden with fine Italian cheeses, French wines and single-malt Scottish whiskeys. At home in Mumbai, she likes shopping at the meighborhood "dollar store", which sells exotic products like the newest flavor pf Pringles in red-white-and-blue decked aisles that make her feel she's on vacation in the U.S. As Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and other retail giants prepare to enter India, an unexpected American Rival -- California's My Dollarstore Inc. -- is already here and attracting the affluent middle-class customers Wal-Mart and others covet. In the U.S., most of the so-called dollar stores that sell discounted products at a single price are in low-rent strip malls. In India, My Dollarstores target big spenders, setting up in prime ground-floor spaces at the newest malls.

Charles voices distaste for McDonald's food
It is unlikely that the Prince of Wales has ever sat at a plastic table in his local McDonald's and tucked into a Big Mac and fries. But yesterday the country's most famous organic farmer did not let his lack of firsthand experience deter him, suggesting that a global ban on the fast food giant was the key to improving children's health. During a tour of a diabetes centre in the United Arab Emirates the prince asked a nutritionist: "Have you got anywhere with McDonald's, have you tried getting it banned? That's the key." A spokeswoman for Clarence House, who was travelling with the prince and Duchess of Cornwall on their 10-day trip, said Prince Charles was simply promoting healthy eating and the "importance of a balanced diet, especially for children". .
