If you have heard American English, you have probably heard this:
It's a dime a dozen.
What does this phrase mean? Let's find out.
A: There's no need for you to pay $20 for that hair brush, it's too expensive.
B: Why not? I really need it.
A: The store down the street has them at a dime a dozen! Come on, I'll show you.
When you say something is "a dime a dozen," it means that there's a lot of it, it doesn't cost much, or that it isn't special.
It's a dime a dozen.
This is a common way of saying that something is so easy to get that it doesn't have much value.
And that's English in a Minute.
