I was surprised how many Christmas items my local dollar store had for sale. I snagged three 20-packs of cards for $1 each, plus three cards for $.50 each. I also saw:
- ornaments for your fake or real tree
- Christmas lights for the house or tree
- wreaths and runners
- snowglobes
- extra tall candy cane decorations
- candles
- gift bags and baskets
- wrapping paper and red and green tissue paper
- bows and ribbon
- holiday-themed buckets, containers, and cookie tins
- stockings
- holiday slogans, like “Ho Ho Ho”
- mailing supplies
- candy canes
- holiday cards (last year I made mine)
- plastic wine glasses and serving trays
- holiday-themed napkins, paper plates, and disposable knives, forks, spoons, and cups
- Santa hats
You can put together many Christmas gifts in the non-holiday aisles, especially to accompany a larger present. Dollar stores often have games, puzzles, spa kit accouterments, candy, office supplies, and tools. What holiday supplies have you picked up for cheap this year?
I always shop my local dollar tree around the holidays. I find things for my Christmas Villiage that need to be replaced, like carolers, Christmas tree candles, and also a bunch of mailing supplies, tape, scissors etc.
I also go there before it gets cold out and stock up on Tub and Tile cleaner, sponges, glass cleaner, etc. , so I wont have to go out in the cold to get these things. I also stock up on paper towels, bath tissue, garbage bags, laundry detergent , etc from different stores that have sales on the big sizes so I will not have to do any of this kind of shopping until spring! Also My local Dollar Tree has discounts after Christmas like 3/$1.00, etc!
Oh and dont forget Calendars!
@Susie A. Thanks for pointing these extra deals out!
I shop the Dollar Tree store for stocking stuffer’s. For any age, you can find something fun and tasty.
@Jennie I found a great stocking stuffer at Walgreens yesterday! The store had “bath bombs,” those fun soap balls that fizz when you put them in water, for $.99. I know Lush sells them for much, much more.
