bargain bin
Cheap finds container
A bargain bin is a container in a store holding discounted merchandise—items marked down because they're overstocked, damaged, or out of season.
The term extends to anything cheap, leftover, or of questionable quality: bargain-bin horror movies, bargain-bin politicians.
The implication is that better options exist elsewhere.
