Foil, disposable pans, storage containers/buckets, tupperware, picture frames (I sand them down and paint them) kitchen sponges, degreaser, notebook paper, pens, eyeliner, bar soap, caramel candies, shaving cream, and im sure theres more! I dont trust the refrigerated/frozen food, but I may try it next time.angiehanssonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02793111111987660908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5609957991100287914.post-58514328036677988292012-08-23T17:10:56.814-07:002012-08-23T17:10:56.814-07:00We have a dollar tree and the 99 cent store - both...We have a dollar tree and the 99 cent store - both good with different stuff. One thing I love to buy is the reading glasses. I need many pairs because I miss place them often. Our 99 cent store has fresh produce now with great items with bags of potatoes and onions and also the bags of romaine lettuce I like. All kinds of fruit including assort. Berries. Spices are good their too with coarse black pepper and garlic which can be pricey in the stores. I can go on and on, never should a person go to a regular store before shopping there first. :) Pattynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5609957991100287914.post-8696282113852433282012-08-23T09:21:43.272-07:002012-08-23T09:21:43.272-07:00I buy many of the same items listed at Dollar Tree...I buy many of the same items listed at Dollar Tree. I also make greeting cards, and from time to time I have found the embelishments at a much better price than the craft stores. Once I found a book on making cards, and one on making paper quilts, so I bought them both. The dollar tree near my home does not have the fridge and freezer area, but it is right next to Winn Dixie, where I like to get my meat, so I will hit both stores on the same day with my list.Rachelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5609957991100287914.post-74354765571753378552012-08-23T07:01:37.613-07:002012-08-23T07:01:37.613-07:00I never knew the dollar store had so much in it! I...I never knew the dollar store had so much in it! I have to spend more time there. Or maybe it's specifically the Dollar Tree. ???<br /><br />I do like that Target now has a 99 cent card section like Walmart does. But more often I make my own, often recycling an old card and "altering" it. People appreciate home made cards or just a note on a regular notecard to honor their birthday, anniversary, or to extend sympathy. EVen boxed cards are getting too expensive.podsohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14880888514207597761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5609957991100287914.post-24284720408464754782012-08-23T04:17:01.400-07:002012-08-23T04:17:01.400-07:00I started making gifts and cards on my computer to...I started making gifts and cards on my computer to save money.
