Could this ecommerce be a threat to DG? Look at the prices plus free shipping, it's very cheap

I don't think so.
The dollar stores are really an in person business: immediate gratification of small wants and needs.
I see it as mostly orthogonal to on line shopping.

On line shopping doesn't need neighbourhood shops. Neighbourhood shops don't need on line shopping.
Is there a bit of overlap at the fringe? Sure, but only the fringe.

It certainly exists sometimes as a loss leader, but it doesn't make economic sense for any company to deliver a $2 product to your door.
