    Do you have Dollar Tree PLUS stores in your area? If you get a chance ask your local store managers if they have heard about all stores eventually converting to plus stores in your area.
    After a much needed break I'm back. Thanks for sticking with me & much love to you all ❤

    Dollar tree has some other things missed on your videos. Their exacto knives are as good as anyones. They also come with replacement blades. They have wood and imitation picture frames that are nice the paint brushes can be used on simple paint projects or as a way to remove dust. The hard tooth brushes work for grout and the beer mugs make a great glasses for teenagers that break things. The mini flashlights are great for kids at night, women's purses for seeing door locks at night. Big bottles of name brand shampoo, body wash, etc Last but not least, on a hot day pop cicles are great to quiet kids and they're cheap

    Okay so that 1st item... the small mesh bag I have a use that I've never seen anywhere else.... I have 3 school aged children, and make 15 school lunches a week. I always have peanut butter, dressing, dip etc for fresh fruit or veggies... I use the small rectangular dressing Tupperware for these dips. The draw back is cleaning these small pain in the bum. So I fill the bag with these dip Tupperware and dunk in hot soapy water for 15 to 20 mins. Then take the bag and chuck it into the top of the dishwasher and never have to race to the dishwasher to stop plastic from melting... man I wish I had thought of this when my kids had pacifiers, and toddler dishes.

    I feel sorry for people (and I know a couple!) who think there's only "junk" at DT. Even with the price increase to $1.25 there are still great deals, and I've actually seen things that seem "higher quality", perhaps because of the price increase. And I'm lucky to have sources in my Southern CA area to still get things for $1 at 99 Cents Only or Big Lots.

    • @TheSwauzz

      @@TheSwauzz 99 cent store has some good things. I always get my sponges, erasers, and pumice stones there. Also their seasonal items can be good too. And “movie theater” boxes of candy are a staple there and make awesome candy bouquet gifts. Once you go to 99 and DT you’ll learn which store is the right one to go to for what your looking for. Like if I need wrapping paper at Christmas, DT hands down. It pays to go every so often because they both get incredible items in only once that you’ll never see again. Sometimes you won’t find anything special, but when you do it’s so worth it.

    I picked up $2.50 of veggie seeds this year for my son to try out with his new girlfriend working with him. Last year he had great success with mostly herbs, but he bought all the seeds and plants from expensive avenues. This year, I suggested - let me get you seeds and try that route. About 2 weeks ago (we are in the south...) I got that first round of photos that look like a nursery of little pots, starting out. He and his girlfriend are excited and looking forward to an absolute ton of veggies.

But I like the idea of those mesh laundry bags because I have to start crocheting a blanket for my grandson and his new wife and I have cats and I was trying to figure a way of protecting the yarn from cat hair and we have bad static this winter so I've been waiting for spring but putting it in the mesh bags just gave me the idea of something to pull the yarn through without exposing it to my lovely cat fur, so thank you for that.

    Multi generational Lego lover household here. Lol In our experience, Dollar Tree's Make-It Blocks are good but break more often & don't stay together as well as Lego. The baseplates especially the 10" square are a good deal & hold up pretty well so we always watch for them. We also get all the 5 pack sets of minifigs & the construction / vehicle box sets since they're unique pieces & the baseplate top storage cases to construct on. We prefer to stick with Lego for basic bricks & watch for sales & buy 2nd hand though instead of off brands.
