      @@dmeyer-iu8zg Yes, lots of the Dollar General and Dollar Tree foods are now GMO/Bioengineered including the Knorr mixes. Read the labels, many familiar brands now aren't the same as just a few years ago. Prepared foods might be cheap and fill the pantry but they might be bad for us too. Also watch the things like the toothpastes, again big names, cheap prices but they are sold there for a reason, often it's because they are discontinued or have bad reviews for a reason.

    I go to Dollar General twice a month. I really like the dollar section, and their vegetables you usually can get them three for two dollars which makes them $.67 per but watch your sale flyers because there is another small grocery store in town called Lowes and their vegetables this week were on sale for $.47 each. I looked greedy because the entire bottom of my cart were cans. I would’ve put them in the flats but there weren’t any. The catchier just laughed and said I’ve been doing this all day and she scanned each one by one! She had an infectious attitude and I didn’t feel so greedy. I wasn’t stocking up for me per se but I do like to help several of the smaller church food banks in the smaller towns around where I live. They are always thankful for canned foods especially vegetables and fruits

    For once in my small town, the new manager that has been here for the past 6 months has done an incredible job keeping our dollar general store stocked and clean. The dollar tree that’s 30 miles from us looks like a bomb went off. I absolutely hate to go shopping there. I stop in there about 2x a month after church and it’s so sad to see how disrespectful some people can be to the stores.

    I know you use the leftover wax from melts for Firestarters, but if you put the dish thingy in the Freezer for 10 minutes, the wax hardens & shrinks slightly, so it pops right out of the dish. You can save those bits for a multifragranced Candle later on, or do a Swirly one with different Colours.

    Hey June, went to the Augusta store a few weeks ago mid-day and an employee stopped me from going in saying they were cleaning and it was too difficult to have customers in the store while they were doing that. My father shared that he read an article that the city shut them down until they cleaned it up. Very glad because before it looked like a bomb went off! Perhaps word came down from corporate that they all needed to get straightened out. In their defense, getting and keeping staff has been difficult according to their staff. The staff I’ve encountered are good hardworking people who can’t keep up. Sign of our times. Enjoy your videos and the educational information. Thank you!

    I recently started using their dollar section and stocking up on some of their items rather than spending that extra quarter too. I really like their 1 wax sheets, I think there are 15 or so sheets that are precut and are the perfect size for my bread pans. I've only found a couple of boxes of it, so I am on the look for them. I will get the 5 dollar off on Saturday coupon and go and do my stock up on Saturday and I have recently gotten the 10 dollar off 40, so I made sure that I used that one too. My husband and I went threw the store to see what all we can find for 1 dollar or less. At the end of the summer season they will clearance all the summer decor for 50 to 90 percent off and that is a great time to get seeds for next years planting season or just getting some seeds that you would like to try at a very cheap price.

    around, like corn, cheese or cheese sauce, chilis, meats, whatever. I very,very seldom go to Dollar General anymore because they are very unkempt here. What I did find there and stocked upon is Kraft Spaghetti mix, at least,it used to be cheaper there.
