Now, if you’re a serious artist that requires some serious art supplies, this may not work for you. But, if you’re just in need of some of the basics, like crayons, paintbrushes, colored pencils, glue, glitter, poster board, etc., the dollar store has you covered.
They have a pretty big craft aisle with everything you need to get through that project.
Bread
If you’re lucky, you’ll catch Dollar Tree on one of the days they get their bread deliveries before the loaves fly off the shelves. They sell all different kinds of bread, including Wonder and even some Nature’s Own.
It’s best to ask your local store when they get their deliveries so you can plan your shopping trip around it and make sure you get your $1 loaf of bread!
Bottled Water
You can easily spend $4-$5 on a six-pack of bottled water. But not at Dollar Tree! Here, you’ll find a six-pack (or gallon) of Crystal Geyser spring water for one buck!
This is the perfect place to stop before that beach or camping trip, or just to stock up on your weekly supply. It’s also not bad to keep water around in case there’s some kind of emergency, like a bad storm.
Candy
Candy is something that the dollar store has an awesome selection of, and all for $1 or less. They even sell some of the better name brand kind, although they may be smaller portions than what you find at other stores.
But they do sell things like six-packs of fun-sized Milky Ways and 1-ounce bars of Godiva. Their dollar selection of candy is way too good to walk past if you’re there!
Envelopes
Envelopes are something you should add to your next dollar store list. Depending on the size, you can get between 40-80 Mead envelopes for a single dollar – that’s an incredible deal!
They also carry bubble mailers and other types of mailing supplies for less than you’ll find elsewhere.
