Gabby Douglas and her electric smile — not to mention her two Olympic gold medals — are sure to have advertisers lining up.

The 16-year-old, who won the women's all-around gymnastics title on Thursday, is proving she's just as fast with a one-liner as she is racing down the vault runway.

Holding the all-around gold in her hands hours after taking the title, Douglas didn't hesitate when someone jokingly told her "nice medal, where did you get?"

"Dollar Tree," she said before eliciting a giggle.
