Oh my gosh, toothbrushes!! They are 5/$1, both small children's ones and adult ones too.
When we went to WalMart and were in the toothpaste aisle, I was floored to see toothbrushes for $5-$7!! From what I've been told by my dentist, the technique and length of brushing counts more than a fancy brush.
I can't imagine spending that much on a toothbrush. We have had major dental problems here in the past, before I discovered the Dollar Tree. Our teeth are in no worse shape with cheaper brushes. I mean, they are $.20!! You could buy 20 of them for $4, a year's supply, versus almost $200 for the WalMart ones! A true savings.
I also buy my brooms there, party supplies for a fraction, Easter things, school supplies, cleaners (Awesome is truly awesome!) and fake flowers for the graveyard.
Their ranch dressing is better than any name brand that we've ever bought. I buy olives there, pasta, and tuna fish 2/$1. It is a bit fishier, but not enough to make me not buy it. Also, chunky-style soup.
My son has gotten computer wires, usbs, and headphones that actually hold up.
