Dollar Tree Haul

Morning!
I made another dollar tree half craft / half household necessities trip this morning.
I went after the clamps (that I hope will work) and to see if they had any Aleene's Tacky Glue (They didn't - but I have enough different types of glue anyway)
I ended up buying three different types of masks (because why not?) and some nail polish. I bought one nail polish (not pictured) at walmart when I went. It's a robin's egg (ish) blue. When I say I'm not a girly girl.. I mean only sparingly.
I'm going to use this dishwand for the toilet (and only the toilet). I bought extra blocks because even though I have like 300 of them now, you can't have enough.
They didn't have the lights that I wanted. They did actually have two types of desk lamps, but I want to make my own little "lantern".
The unicorn pouch is for my cash / card necessities.

Huh. I have never thought about using a dishwashing wand to wash dishes, let alone the toilet. But, I can see how that can work. It's a good thing to keep in mind.

Got the idea from a youtube video. A woman uses one for her shower and I thought I'd try one for the toilet.
I can say using it for the shower works wonders for me. I buy the Ajax Lime & Vinegar dish washing liquid they have at the dollar tree and put it in the wand for the shower.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I am not a fan of Ajax, but I am glad it works for you. I do tend to use vinegar a lot when cleaning, though.

@Chellezhere We used to use Dawn a whole lot, but find that Ajax works well enough for us. Especially this vinegar and lime one. I do like the dawn with olay though and the dawn spray.

I can't wait until they open the DT near me. It will be open hopefully by mid March. I can't wait to see what interesting items show up there. I like the sugar free syrups that are only a buck there.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Yeah, you are right. I am sure when they first open at least they will be well stocked.

Oh! I didn't look in the food section. I need to look the next time I'm there then. Thanks for letting me know about them!
I hope they'll keep on top of the stock when that one opens for you. It seems like some are great at stocking and some aren't.

@snowy22315 Oh no doubt, but I also bet a lot of people are eagerly awaiting the closer DT opening.
I was telling a relative that I think last week they had some people stocking over night at the one I like to go to. They are a little further away, but they are also generally well stocked. The one closer is always struggling.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I will have to look at ours and see if they have the black polish and maybe a glitter polish. That is good you liked the grapefruit mask.

@Tina30219 Ours had two glitter polishes.
It's 98 cents at walmart, but I think DT had some colors that walmart didn't have.

Will do. Oh! I used the grapefruit mask last night and liked it. It was weird at first but very calming.
Yep, it's black. I'll probably pair it with the green at some point. The green is for St. Paddy's though.
Why 'only' for the toilet?

Don't want to wash my hands with fecal matter.

I was surprised to see pond's at the DT so I grabbed it.

Yes I was.
I got the last few things I needed to start building my little tiered shelf. What I now must decide is whether I want to continue working on it now or wait until the weekend. My friends and I are having a small gathering to do some crafting.

I haven't been in a dollar store in decades. We usually shop at Walmart.

I used to go a lot year before last. I used to shop at like three or four different stores, but now it's just the local grocers, walmart & dollar tree now.
