      Putting that on your face was very brave
      Some of their products are a nope
      But love their storage items and crafting supplies
      Their seasonal signs are amazing and love the beach theme
      $1.25 is still a bargain for so many things
      My solar lights still work from there and they are a few years old

      If you caulk your trim and around your windows, the ants won’t be as bad. Use latex caulking inside and siliconized caulking outside. Good luck with those pesky buggers.

    Those ice trays are REALLY cool! I have an ice maker now, but had to rely on ice cube trays for a LONG time. For anyone who has ice cube trays without lids, here's a trick; put the water in a measuring cup or even a regular cup, then fill the ice cube tray IN THE FREEZER with it. That way you're not moving a tray full of water around and risking to spill it. n.n

      I have two of the ice cube trays purchased at DT in 2018.
      Those little hinges on the filler cap are very flimsy and likely will break after a few uses. I don't use them on mine; I just wanted the trays for the lids! Makes stacking the trays much easier. 👍

    My local Dollar Tree has a huge wall covered in nothing but Betty Crocker utensils, and potholders/dish towels. Good snag if wanting to put together a big basket gift for a bridal shower. Goo Gone is good, but for most sticky gunk remover you can just use regular old kitchen cooking oil (canola, vegetable, etc.) Caution with those foot scrubber things, they have a weak spot right where the product narrows to form the handle and it will break right off at that spot. It is not useless, as you can still use it without the handle, it is just the point of it.

      We had Tupperware stuff in the house growing up, but I guess my mom didn't hear about it back then, because your comment is the first I've heard of them having it and this video is the first time I've ever seen a covered ice cube tray. I was thrilled a few years ago when my sister-in-law showed me the silicone ice cube trays she had. So much better than the plastic ones I had. I've now got 4 of the 1" cube trays (15 cubes per, iirc). But covered trays, talk about genius.

      Exactly. Also, an acute attack doesn’t rely on meds that ‘over-medicate’. It’s usually an albuterol inhaler. If it’s an acute attack, you wouldn’t need a stethoscope, just quick thinking

      Do not can dollar tree jars. Only for decorating and crafting. Mason or Ball jars are the best, in my opinion, and You can often buy them in bulk for less than 1.25. I really appreciate these videos, but would like folks to be careful about describing some of these products as “quality” without testing them or in this case using them for their advertised use.

    My husband used a stethoscope to find a water leak between our pond and the water gauge. We knew there was a leak but didn't want to dig up too much of our stone to find it, so this was the perfect way to hone in on a specific area to fix the problem!

    Pregnant mothers buy stethoscopes so they can hear the baby's heartbeat whenever they want...

    I have some of the icecube trays with lids I bought from a different store. I like them very much. It's nice to not have all you trays stuck together!
    I will say from my experience that it is better to fill them without the lid on. I started out filling the trays with the lids in place, but they all seemed to drip out the sides. I have since switched to putting the lids on after I fill them- no problems since. I am happy to know that DT has these as the store I found them in the first place no longer has them. We use A LOT of ice 🧊 in our house so our trays get a lot of wear and tear- I need to go stock up on these! Thanks for taking the time to share! God bless.

    Thank you again for a great video, Matt! Caveat emptor, however, on the cereals you mentioned. For those trying to avoid wheat, the off-brands at Dollar Tree will often have wheat, whereas the name brands of the same items will not. For example, the "Honey Nut" Oatie Hoops, or whatever they may be, will sneak in some wheat instead of something like Cheerios, which will be gluten free.

I've seen lots of channels where people constantly just show their Dollar Tree hauls. I see no purpose to those. I appreciate the fact that you are unbiased, and test out almost everything, except the girly beauty products, and give your honest opinion. I enjoy your perky attitude and are always enjoyable to watch. I am always giving people unsolicited advice, and just today, I was telling a woman that gives out samples at Costco to watch you. She's there almost everyday, but was excited to find out that you were the guy to tell her what the best deals are. She was exciteed about getting home to start watching your videos. Next time I go into one of my many Dollar Trees, I have to ask the cashier, who is buying these stethascopes. All I can think of is they're a toy for kids to play doctor. Thank you for all your work.
