Cut Your Grocery Bill In Half! with Stephanie Nelson, The Coupon Mom

We all love dollar stores especially when you need last minute items! Are you buying these 5 things below at dollar stores or are you overspending on these items elsewhere?

1. Balloons

Whether you need balloons to throw a party or for another special occasion this is the place to get them. Grocery stores can cost up to $5 per balloon and that can add up. For the cost of 1 balloon at a grocery store you can get 5 at a Dollar Tree for the same price so that’s a no-brainer.

2. Wrapping Paper

We need wrapping paper for multiple occasions throughout the year whether it’s a birthday or an anniversary. It’s good to keep a pile in stock especially for $1 a piece. There is no need to rush to the store to grab some worth $5 when you can just keep a handy stockpile of wrapping paper for just a $1.

3. Seasonal Decor

Dollar Tree always have aisles of seasonal decor. Buy a lot or just a few to put around the house and when you don’t need it anymore pack it up or toss it out!

4. Office Supplies

Paper clips, pens, pencils etc. Some of your office supplies can add up when you purchase them elsewhere.

5. Plastic Utensils

Great to have when planning parties. They make for easy clean-up!

Dollar Tree have a variety of items to choose from but on your next shopping trip go ahead and pick up some of these items so you have them in stock.
