Could be other outlets are wired incorrectly, which is throwing off this outlet. Got one of those simple polarity/ground testers, ran around checking all my outlets and found an entire room where the polarity was swapped because of one outlet.

But you have to keep in mind that the tube the dollar store sells is never the same size as the tube at Walmart or Home Depot. $2 tube is maybe enough for a single repair, but always check the quantity you are getting for each price.

Another thing to be wary of is "fillers", cheap non-reactive ingredients that increase volume/weight, but aren't considered the primary product. In the case of ice cream, the amount of air whipped into it during mixing can be significantly different for different brands, and ice cream is sold by volume.
