The Dollar Tree for literally ANY sitch

Okay so The Dollar Tree  just opened up in the town next to mine, and I have been there way more times than I care to admit. I had never really spent time in The Dollar Tree before, since it was so far away, but now I consider myself a dollar store PRO. Let me tell you, they have EVERYTHING. Stuff I have been paying way too much for can be found at TDT for, wait for it, a DOLLAR (or sometimes less). Here are some of my favorite finds…

Birthday supplies

  • You guys, birthday balloons are lowkey really expensive. TDT has a huge collection of helium balloons that they blow up for you right in store. You can get a bundle of balloons for less than $5 
  • Birthday bags are also sold for way too much in other stores. TDT has some really cute bags for waaaayyy less. 
  • You can also find adorable wrapping paper, tissue paper, decorations, etc. 

Cards

  • Ok it bothers me so much when I want to send someone a card for an occasion, but I have to spend $5 for a piece of paper?! TDT has a great selection of cards for any occasion. They look literally the same as a Hallmark card from The Paper Store. 

Beauty

  • Essential oils are another item that I have spent upwards of $40 on in the past. TDT has them for…a…dollar. 
  • Facemasks – ugh don’t get me started on the price of facemasks. I can’t. 
  • Fake lashes – Sephora sells the same ones for 10x the price. 

Kitchen items

  • If you are moving into a temporary apartment or dorm, there is no need to spend an arm and a leg on kitchen supplies that you probably won’t carry with you through all your moves. 
  • TDT has adorable plates, bowls, and cups. I added a picture of my favorite bowls in the gallery below! 
  • Tupperware – another item that is way more expensive than it should be! TDT has a huge assortment. 
  • Utensils and cookware – including my favorite item: a tong spatula! It is more useful than you think lol. 

Random items that are usually overpriced that can be found at TDT

  • Canvases for painting – also lots of other art supplies! 
  • Air fresheners  
  • Every candy imaginable 
  • Nylons – yes, like for your legs. 
  • Picture frames
  • Razors
  • Vitamins/supplements
