Appearance[]

Trivia[]
- The store has been called many names throughout the series:
- In the original series, it was referred to as Dilys Price's General Store.
- In the CGI series, it is referred to as The Cut Price Store, but was sometimes referred to as The Cut Price Supermarket in some episodes of the sixth and seventh series.
- The products on the shelves are usually either scrambled words or real-life brands but with the name edited to avoid copyright infringement. For example, in some Series 5 episodes boxes of "ZAZ" can be seen on the shelves, a reference to DAZ laundry detergent. "FireAlert" smoke alarms can also be seen, a reference to the American smoke detector company First Alert. In Series 1-4 most of the products simply have random letters as the brand names. A Series 5 example would be "ALWMINIWNA ΓOI⅃" instead of "ALUMINUM FOIL". These random letters are intentional to make translations for different languages easier.
- The Pooa Lawa fridge from "Star Hill Ponies" can be seen the store in Series 5.
