Frugal Friday

I have always been a bargain shopper, but I have to admit that I only found out about the Dollar Tree a couple of years ago. Dollar Tree...where have you been all my life? Oh, I remember...my Mother doesn't do dollar stores. Nothing wrong with that (I love you Mom for teaching me to love the nice things in life). I do love to see what I can get for a great deal, though. I mean, look what you can get for $11.00 plus tax:
Their spray bleach cleaner is great
White-out, popcorn and Reynold's Wrap~ can't go wrong with those
Drop cloth, sandpaper, painter's tape, picture hanging kit~ all useful for all the the home decor projects that I have going on
3 energy drinks for my hubs~ I don't know if he really liked any of them, but Red Bulls are really expensive.
I would also recommend their gift boxes and bags, tissue paper, some of their greeting cards aren't bad, books, office supplies, little toys and books for children, some of their seasonal stuff, and crafting supplies. I would not, however, recommend buying pregnancy tests from there:) I'm just saying...

I should shop there more often. I always like the deals I get when I do stop there!

I love the dollar stores too. Just don't take Mom there. She even wrinkles her nose up when we drive by. I kid her about stopping though. hehe

As a teacher, I love the dollar store. I can spend like $20 and rack up on all kinds of stickers and prizes! Yeah, my mom has probably never set foot in one of those places! :) Gotta love the moms!

Oh I love the dollar store in my town. They have the best of everything! And you can't beat the prices on cleaning supplies, medical supplies, bird seed, makeup......I could go on and on!!

Oh I love the Dollar Store!!
When my daughter was 2, we did all our Christmas shopping for her there. lol, don't tell her.
I figured, she was going to play with the wrapping paper anyway, and not really care about the toys, so why not spend $20, as apposed to $200. It worked out great. :)

I agree...the Dollar Store can be a great place to find the stuff you don't want to spend a lot of money on. I love to get paper supplies there:o)
