1. Candles
Dollar Tree offers a variety of candles that can enhance the ambiance of any room without burning a hole in your pocket. Dollar Tree’s selection is surprisingly extensive and affordable, from simple tea lights to decorative pillar candles. These candles are perfect for creating a relaxing mood at home, setting a seasonal table or using during power outages.
2. Kitchen Utensils
Why spend a fortune on kitchen utensils when Dollar Tree has you covered? The store features an array of kitchen utensils, including spatulas, tongs, and measuring cups, all for around a dollar each. These surprisingly durable and long-lasting tools make them a smart choice for budget-conscious cooks.
3. Reading Glasses
If you’re prone to losing or breaking your reading glasses, you don’t want to spend a lot each time you have to replace them. Dollar Tree offers a variety of colors and magnification levels for cheap, and the glasses are pretty stylish, too. This makes it easy to keep multiple pairs around the house without overspending.
4. Cards and Gift Bags
If a birthday or holiday is coming up, it’s time to head to Dollar Tree. Instead of spending $5 to $7 on a single greeting card, you can get two cards for $1 at Dollar Tree. Then, use your leftover cash to get a cute gift bag and some tissue paper. Your giftee will never know you bought their card and gift wrap at the dollar store.
5. Glassware
Entertaining guests or upgrading your kitchenware doesn’t have to be expensive. Dollar Tree’s glassware includes wine glasses, tumblers and stemware. These pieces are surprisingly stylish for just $1, and they can be used every day or on special occasions.
