So over the past month, every single week I went to the dollar store and I purchased
0:31
different things, I price checked different things at different stores and so I've come
0:35
up with a list of 30 things that you will want to stock up on at the dollar store
0:40
Whether it's good product or it's awesome prices compared to other places
0:45
Alright, I'm headed to the dollar store one more time to check out a few more things and
0:51
then I will show you my list of 30 things that I buy at the dollar store
0:57
Here we go. The first one is decorations. Every time I go into the Dollar Tree, they have decorations on every wall for the next
1:07
three seasons coming up. Number two, seeds. So every year, this is actually where we buy our seeds
1:15
They're a quarter for just one pack or four for a dollar, which is great
1:19
They have all the vegetables, flowers, you name it, they have it
1:23
Number three, seasonal party supplies. So whatever season's coming up, they have all the supplies for it for your goodie bags
1:31
I love it because it's not all candy. Number four, dishes. Now this might sound funny, but as a food photographer, I buy all kinds of dishes from
1:41
the dollar store. They have white ones, these ones are fun, colorful, you should check them out
1:46
Now this is probably one of my most favorite spots to get gift bags because they have gift
1:51
bags for boys, for girls, for every size, big or small. Then you go to seasonal, they have seasonal bags for everything, which are usually darling
2:02
And don't forget the baby bags, those can get expensive in the other stores
2:06
And tissue paper, you get 35 for just a dollar. Number six, gardening supplies
2:12
Now I bet you didn't know that there are gardening supplies from gloves to shovels
2:17
to little rakes to all kinds of stuff that you need to work in your garden
2:22
My most favorite thing are those big pots up top. You can easily paint them if you wanted to
2:27
And then they have all different kinds of colors of smaller sizes
2:31
Number seven, vases. Now go tell your significant other to buy one of these vases, not one from the flower store
2:40
Number eight, plastic or paper colored products. Now they have every color you possibly imagine, from tablecloths to utensils to plates, you
2:49
name it. Number nine, cards. Now you can get any kind of card here from birthdays to anniversaries to pretty much
2:57
you name it, for 50 cents to a dollar. You can also get thinking of you or thank you cards
3:04
You get eight of them for a dollar. Now we're going to talk about wrapping paper and bows
3:09
We've already done bags, but these are a whole nother beast. They have so many different options of wrapping paper and it's only a dollar
3:17
Plus every color of bow you can possibly imagine, which is my five year old's heaven
3:24
Number 11, party supplies. And I swear you can never have enough of these things
3:28
From candles, number candles, to birthday banners, birthday things to celebrate. My favorite are the balloons
3:37
You can buy a ton of balloons for a great price. Number 12, games
3:42
Now games are kind of hit and miss because they sell out pretty quick. So you can buy dice, there's silly putty, there's letter blocks, there's golf games
3:51
This is the Chinese checkers. There's giant dice, which my kids love
3:55
But this thing, left, center, right. If you have never played this, I highly suggest it
3:59
I paid $10 on Amazon for this thing. Number 13, we're going to call busy activities
4:06
So whether you're going on a car trip, a plane trip, or you need to entertain your kids for
4:12
like 20 minutes, whether it's a doctor's appointment, they have so many great things
4:17
These little mosaics, my kids can spend hours putting these together. Make sure you dig behind because they have all kinds of different things
4:26
Number 14, we're going to call it so many crafts because literally they have every child's
4:32
dream of crafting here. So sometimes I'll take my girls and like, okay, you have $3, pick three craft things
4:38
They even have Mod Podge. Yep, they do. Number 15, glow sticks
4:43
We use glow sticks all year round. Whether it's a glow in the dark bath, whether it's glow in the dark soccer, I mean, you
4:51
can use them all the time. So my kids absolutely love them and I always have a ton on stock whenever we need something
4:58
fun to do. Number 16, mailing supplies. Now as funny as it sounds, I used to sell things on eBay and I would go get all of my
5:06
mailing supplies from the dollar store. It was so much cheaper. From envelopes to tape to these big padded mailing bags, they're only a dollar compared
5:15
to up to $5 at the post office. Then you have brown paper if you need to cover some stuff up
5:22
You also have padding if you need to wrap something up to protect it
5:26
Number 17, poster boards. Now these are the thick poster boards that I'm talking about
5:32
They're about $2.50 at any other place, but at the dollar store, they're only a dollar
5:37
Plus you can find almost every color of a normal poster board
5:41
Number 18, learning and coloring books. If you have a little one who loves to learn, grab some of these extra things like grade
5:48
one, kindergarten. They're perfect. Number 19, teacher supplies. Now I do have to admit, if you're not a teacher, this might not be useful for you, but I have
5:58
kids in preschool. I have little things that these are perfect and work for things if I'm working on things
6:05
at home. Number 20, dry erase markers. All right, I brought these home
6:11
I tried them and they actually work awesome and they're only a dollar
6:16
Number 21, tools. I had no idea the dollar store had tools until I started researching
6:22
They have all kinds of stuff and they have one of these hand grabber things
6:27
My kids love these things. That's an awesome gift to even get them
6:31
They have tweezers, they have pliers, they have screwdrivers, even tough handy gloves
6:37
They even have small toolboxes that will fit the basics. Number 22, workout videos
6:43
If you're like me, I like to change up my workup a lot. They had jillion workouts everywhere here and instead of paying five to $10, it's a dollar
6:53
Number 23, Adfil. Now I'm funny about brands, but they have the real Adfil brand perfect for throwing
6:59
in your purse, in your suitcase, on the go. It's perfect. Number 24, plastic containers
7:06
Now being someone who works with food a lot, I use these all the time and I usually pay
7:11
about $3 for something like this. But here at the dollar store, they're just a dollar
7:16
And these ones are smaller and they come with four for a dollar
7:20
Number 25, toothbrushes. Now these are Colgate toothbrushes that are usually a dollar at the store
7:27
You can get three here. Number 26, baggies, plastic, and foil. Now how much do you usually pay for baggies
7:35
It's a lot because I pay two. These ones are Reynolds wrappers
7:39
They are foil sheets all ready to go. And then the next one, you can just buy normal aluminum foil
7:45
It's a different brand, but if that doesn't matter to you, also wax paper, 65 feet
7:50
Number 27, kitchen pans. Now these next items, I've actually purchased all of them and loved all of them
7:57
So we have muffin tins, two grilling tray, two bread pans. They have all kinds of stuff here
8:05
They also have brownie pans. This one's a little bit bigger. Then they have a smaller one that's a square, either for brownies or cake
8:12
They also have round cake pans. The one thing I would suggest is do not wash them in the dishwasher
8:18
You have to wash everything or they go a little rusty. Number 28, kitchen utensils
8:24
Now I'm pretty picky about my utensils, but they have an awesome pizza cutter
8:29
And I really like the basting brush for larger things. Also the Turner spatulas were awesome, whether the ones with holes or without, both were good
8:40
I also really like their colorful dish towels. Number 29, aluminum pans
8:46
Now lots of times I make leftovers or I do freezer meals or I go deliver them to friends
8:52
And so to buy two of those aluminum pans are about $2.50 to $3 at any other store
8:59
Here you can get two of them for a dollar. They also have big ones for like your turkey dinners, your ham dinners, that kind of stuff
9:07
You can also get three bread pans that have little lids, perfect for banana bread
9:12
And last but not least, cleaning supplies, especially if you're going to try out some
9:16
new cleaning supplies that you haven't used before, I would highly suggest getting the
9:20
dollar store ones because they come a little bit smaller. You can try them out, see if you like them
9:26
They have all kinds of brands. I love to get the smaller kinds, especially when I'm doing a new laundry detergent, perfect
9:34
for testing, make sure your kids aren't allergic and also perfect for taking all these things
9:39
when you're traveling and you just need a small size and not a huge size of your cleaning supplies
9:47
And also part of your cleaning supplies, don't forget to grab sponges while you're there
9:51
perfect for the kitchen, bathroom, everything. And those are my 30 things
9:57
So next time you're out shopping, maybe think about heading to the dollar store before you
10:02
go out to save yourself some money. All right guys, thanks for joining me today on Tip Tuesday
