Today's Thrifty Thursday is dedicated to dollar stores ~ Dollar General, Dollar Tree, etc. These stores have treasures just waiting to be discovered.
Here are a few that I have uncovered ~
Glass hurricanes = $1.00 each on clearance
Wood pumpkins = $1.00 each
Gingerbread scented votives = $1.00
Battery-operated string of 10 white lights = $1.00
Battery-operated taper candle = $1.00
Salt box house plates = $2.50 each on clearance
Battery-operated small pillar candle = $1.50 on clearance
Battery-operated large pillar candle = $2.50 on clearance
The taper candles can easily be spray painted ~ check back tomorrow to see a few that I have primmed up.
It's amazing that even these stores will clearance out merchandise. I couldn't believe my luck when I came across the hurricanes and battery-operated pillar candles at 50% ~ I must admit that I bought all the cream colored ones they had left!
I have purchased many, many items from dollar stores and have never had a problem. Baby clothes, baby items, adult clothes, shoes, school supplies, food, cosmetics ~ the list goes on and on. One of my favorite thrifty items is their greeting cards. They only cost $.50 a piece!
If you have a dollar store near, I would advise you to check it out! Open your mind to the possibilities that await in each aisle!

I started buying my cards there, awhile back,
ReplyDeletesure beats the $3-$4 at other stores! I have
the saltbox house plate, on the right, but I
paid $5 for it, so you got a great deal on it. Thanks for sharing.

I have/had both of those plates...but like Karen I paid $5 each for them! UGH!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately they have been knocked off their holders and shattered...I wonder if my local dollar general has any left...and better yet, on clearance!
