Refers to warehouse stores, not because they are in big box-shaped buildings, but because the merchandise comes in big, bulk boxes for stocking items in quantity rather than individual portions. Costco, BJ's, Sam's Club, are big-box stores. Walmart and Target are not.
People who use this term to refer simply to big stores are clueless. Almost all stores are in big rectangular buildings. This is not what the phrase means.

Get the drug store handicapmug. When you believe that things that are a dollar or less should be bought in bulk because they are so cheap.
My Mom went out and bought 20 pairs of star shaped sunglasses because "someone would definitely get a dollar worth of fun out of them". She has a dollar store mentality.
My friend Paty used to say "If it's for free, it's for me....but the dollar store is good too."
