99 cents store best finds thread

[capt_noonie]

Post your good finds at Dollar Tree or 99 cents Only or any dollar store here!

I found the cutest tiki/luau party stuff there today. I totally want to have a party now for no reason! Tiki shot glasses, pineapple and coconut shaped drink containers, even hula skirts! Lots of decorations... I think I want the pineapple drink container.

I also found this tea called Sweet Leaf, there's a cartoon grandma on it. It is so good. The sweet tea is always sold out. There's a few varieties, the citrus green tea is also good. Way better than Arizona's green tea.

Also at Dollar Tree they always have 50 poop bags for a buck. 99cents stores only have them sometimes.

The name Dollar Tree is the wrong name...it should be $20 Tree. lol I always manage to find a tone of stuff!

If you look in the baby section there, you will find the diaper bags can be used for poop bags and there are 75 bags to a box. They used to be 100.

I like their knick knacs for the holidays. I have a window ledge in my kitchen that I can decorate according to the holiday and always seem to find some cute stuff at Dollar tree for that.

I found Jada a red satin Christmas Dress and Bogie a black satin Tuxedo vest once. They were actually pretty cute for a buck each. I can never leave there without spending at least 20-30 bucks You can sometimes find really cute picture frames too.

I have found some really nice large, plastic bowls that my son likes to use for popcorn every night! Not too big, not too small; and nice and sturdy.

And . . I've been known to purchase silverware there the night before a party when I think I might be running low! I've gotten some nice, sturdy forks that we still use; but you have to be careful because a lot of times they are cheap and flimsy.

We always buy our gift bags there for Christmas gift giving.

Love the Dollar Tree!

Oh! This thread just brought back a great memory. When my son was little; I'd let him pick 3-4 new ornaments for our tree every year. He always found some great glass ornament balls at the Dollar Tree that still decorate our tree today.

Now you are talking my kind of store.
I found some HUGE boxes of Glad bags (gallon and sandwich size) for less that a 30 or 40 ct box at Jewel. I'm so into that store. I go there first when I go shopping. I think I ought to go there before grocery shopping too but never think of it.

I was at party city last yr for her first yr bday party. It was tinkerbell theme and I really wanted the cake plate for all the. Kiddos and bought them (the nice hard plastic for everyday use and they could take home) at 2.99 each. I bought DD the whole set for home.

Last week, found the entire same set for a buck each. I felt cheated lol

I picked up the sandwich holder and extra plates. Too bad this yr for her second bday it will be Dora theamed and they had none

My fav finds are salad bowls, can openers, bday gift bags, condiments, bday balloons, sponges, brushes for scrubbing, spray bottles................

And the best cleaner/degreaser called AWESOME and it really is!!!!!

I have bought some really nice melamine bowls there for the dogs food, in such neat patterns. My daughters dog has butterflies, my son's lab has butterfinger slogan. They get washed nightly in the dishwasher so I have no worries of any issues. I also bought our pom's "bad to the bone" stoneware food bowls there, and Teddie's stoneware there too. I also have picked up poo bags, the BEST toilet cleaner ever (it ACTUALLY works), and little holiday deco knicknacks there. I have little ceramic snowmen/moose/santas/penguins etc. that are so beautiful...people NEVER believe that I spent just a buck on them. I also bought the little stocking holders there...they've held up for years and hold a full stocking on the mantle.

I also bought wicker planters there that I stuck faux roses in to line the tops of my kitchen cabinets to add color. I have picked up coca cola cups for my kids (the glass funny shaped one's), and I pick up my glass votive holders there so I have plenty of candle holders for special occasions.

Neat stuff all the way around...

That is one of my favorite stores! LOL You just never know what you might find there. The other day they had these little 8 pk/ 100 calorie snack packs of peanuts, m&m's & raisins. I've tried every other $ store I see and can't find anymore.

Heidi got this pretty red satin dress there.

Love, love, love dollar tree $$$. I always manage to find cool stuff. I found pictures in a glass frame. They are so nice. I just finished redoing my livingroom and they match perfectly. You can't tell they even come from the dollar store. My dh was amazed when he saw them.

I never find anything good in our dollar store

I will sometimes buy gift bags- they are usually 2/$1- but thats about it.
