In order to get the ecash, you need to send an onchain transaction to open a lightning channel, pay onchain fees, then send btc to the mint on lightning, pay fees on that again, then you get the ecash which needs to be withdrawn later - all that for $5?
Whats the use case for buying something with ecash for $5?
