Frugal Shopping: Dollar Tree Haul 12/18

Defuniak Springs, Florida

Yesterday when I got off work, I picked up a couple bags of things at work. The other half requested some of them, a couple of the snacky things are for when our "nephew" comes over, and then I picked up some odds and ends. Without further ado, here is everything that is pictured, which is everything that I picked up. -2 metal planters -a bag of seed starter -Adventure Time chapter book (easy reader) -Disney Infinity chapter book (easy reader) - bag of OnYums chips -3 pack of chicken noodle soup mix -5 pack of pretzel and cheese dippers -six pack of four packs of peanut butter crackers -metal and glass lady bug hanger -bottle of Wishbone Blue Cheese Dressing -Stick lighter -can of collard greens -jar of minced garlic -hummingbird feeder -Amazing food hacks book -bag of Hershey Kisses -Sour cream and onion Ridges Chips I spent just under twenty bucks with tax. I was really excited about finding the books. Our "nephew" has started to get into reading, and I have been keeping an eye out for books that I think will encourage him to read more. He's seven, so I thought the two I found at work were perfect. I'm hoping we get more in before Easter so I can put them in his basket. I was also really happy about the metal pots for the window garden I am working on. And the lady bug was adorable. So I had to get it, plus there's a story behind what lady bugs mean to me, which I will tell at some point in a discussion. Anyway, fingers crossed the picture actually loads.

@farbuoloxusy That's so silly. I had a ton of customers complaining about it. I work at Dollar Tree, so I get both sides of it. Lol.

I have a lot of customers that do that, but the papers here on Sunday didn't come with coupons in them.

My kids had a couple of the Adventure Time books. I bought them a few years back at Ollies. You got a lot of good stuff in this lot.

@thislittlepennyearns It's a place that sells things they get from liquidation etc. The prices are very low and you never know what you will find.

@shaggin We have stores out here called Dirt Cheap, with similar things. They are fun to go into.

I didn't have some of that stuff on my list. But when I find books for G, I usually pick them up even if they aren't on the list. Because they are a great deal. What is Ollies? Ive heard a bout it.

It seems like you got some decent deals. Did you know there was a facebook group devoted to DT hauls? I joined it for fun. I usually only get to Dollar Tree about once a month though. THey are 45 minutes to an hour in either direction from me..like everything else!

I'm on one of them, I don't know if its the same one. There are two equal distance from my house, just in opposite ways. The one I work at and then the other one. I haven't been to the other one except for twice.
