Fall arrives on Sept. 22, but that hasn’t stopped stores — or shoppers — from embracing the change of season early. Starbucks has already rolled out its Pumpkin Spice Latte, which, for some, means fall has unofficially begun.

If you’re looking to save money on gatherings in September and beyond, Dollar Tree has plenty of party staples for less than $15 in total to carry you from late summer into early fall.

Utz Party Mix

• Price: $1.25

You never know when guests might drop by, so keep a bag or two of Utz Party Mix on hand just in case. Each 4 1/2-ounce bag has a little bit of everything: tortilla chips, barbecue corn chips, nachos, cheese crunchies and pretzel wheels. It’s a snack that satisfies salty cravings and keeps everyone happy without spending too much.

3-Tier Seasonal Serving Trays

• Price: $5.00

Leaves and pumpkins are quintessential symbols of fall, and these three-tier seasonal serving trays bring them to the table. Each three-level serving tray is made of food-safe materials, and assembly is easy. The trays are ideal for displaying fall-themed cupcakes, cookies and pastries —  or savory finger sandwiches. Designs include pumpkins, leaves, and pumpkin and flower patterns to complement any fall celebration. 

Dark Green 2-Ply Lunch Napkins

• Price: $1.50

Add some color to your fall gatherings with a 30-count pack of dark green two-ply lunch napkins at Dollar Tree. The dark green color is versatile, which means you can use them now through the end of the year. 

Fall Leaves Drink Napkins

• Price: $1.50

These fall leaves drink napkins boast colorful, assorted leaves, acorns and a plaid border to represent the changing season. Each napkin measures 9.84 by 9.84 inches, which is slightly smaller than Dollar Tree’s lunch napkins that are 13 by 13 inches. Pick up a 24-count pack for autumn gatherings with appetizers or cocktails on the menu. 

Seasonal Collection Paper Plates

• Price: $1.50

If you’re serving more than appetizers at autumn celebrations, buy one or more packs of these fall-themed seasonal collection paper plates. The plates work well for light party fare, including sandwiches, salads and desserts, and the pattern ties right in with the fall leaves drink napkins from Dollar Tree.
