This makes these products interesting in some ways, especially with something like boots or tools that a person would use for their job. A higher quality product would be more meaningful to a working class person if it is necessary for them to succeed in their job and helps them do their best work in the workplace. High quality products could help a person, for example if a construction worker buys low quality boots and develops blisters he will not want to work. However, if the construction worker buys high quality boots and does not develop blisters or wear uncomfortable shoes, then he will be able to concentrate on his work and will be much more efficient. On the other hand, dollar bins at Target or five-dollar film bins at Walmart wouldn't appeal to Veblen. He wouldn't like this, because it's essentially a scam aimed at tricking people into buying things they don't need just because they're cheap. This can cause people to become materialistic since the items are very cheap and stores place them in areas to make sure you see them. It's all about making things attractive to the consumer and the rest will take care of itself because people love a good deal, even if it's not good..
