I love shopping at the dollar stores! I find lots of good holiday items there as well as things like picture frames, candles and cleaning supplies. Also, I host lots of different parties for my friends and family and I love to get supplies and themed table wares and dishes there!!

We have a great dollar store here in my area. I love it. It is where I get my dog's stuffed toys, that we call "foo foo's". We also shop there for other items as well. Our dollar store is always neat and the clerks are always friendly and try to help you find what you need. They also have a fantastic greeting card selection. Yep, I'm a Dollar Store shopper.

We have several dollar stores in my area and I love them. There are some I don't like but over all they are very good. I find a lot of good deals there. Problem is it's really easy to blow some money because you will pick things up going "Oh it's just a dollar" forgetting that it will add up and before you know it you have 20 or 30 dollars worth of goods.

I do this, too! It sucks cuz you'll go there thinking, "I need to get (some item), it will only be a dollar" Then by the time you are done, you've spent 20! You might as well have went to the regular store! lol.

Dollar stores can be really good. I try to hit them when the people who have toddlers are most likely to be at home, though. One of my favorite thing to so it find things that I can use for purposes other than what they are being sold as. Also, some items, like decorative combes and barrets for the hair, are priced more in line with what theya re actually worth!

I love Dollar Tree stores. They have so much useful stuff in there! I also find that they have more items except for major clothing. But everything is $1.00 so who can complain?

dollar stores, if those are places where you are able to buy any item for one dollar then we have something similar over here in the uk called pound shops, can pick up some decent items there such as bin bags (essential especially at christmas) and every day items.

Dollar stores  - Dollar srores give you more bang for your buck
I always shop The dollar stores in my area. You can often find the same thing as in the bigger stores. Sometimes the variety can be limited but what you do find is great. You do have to be care and be a wise shopper as with any store.

I live in the UK, so obviously, we have Pound Stores instead. I use them quite often, you can find some great things in there, and it'll only ever cost £1. We got all our Christmas decorations from there last year, and managed to do it all for £5, so it's great value.

I love the dollar tree. They have great stuff sometimes. They get new stuff all the time. I can always find good stuff there. These stores are usually cleaner than stores like the Family Dollar.

I love shopping at Dollar Tree. It seems like all the other so called dollar stores really aren't dollar stores, I feel like its just a ploy to get me in there.

We have something similar over here called Euroland. What I love about this place that you can pick up stuff for birthday parties or gifts at bottom prices. Or you can restock the crayons and pencils for your kids. And of course if you need to replace some kitchenitems like broken mugs or plates.
