We’re always looking for ways to make our house a little homier, and that usually happens through small details and decor. Whether it’s a beautiful wind chime or some dangly, mosaic hangings for the outdoor area, sometimes these pieces can have a higher price tag than we expected. Fortunately, you can find a beautiful variety at the Dollar Store!
So next time you visit the store, make sure to go to the ‘Outdoor Decoration’ section and browse away! You can get a lovely wind chime for under $5!
Stickers
No matter how old we are, stickers never go out of style. And if you have kids, you know how necessary they are to have around the house. The Dollar Store is the perfect place to buy stocks of different stickers.
They have an impressive variety of sizes and themes, and they're dirt cheap!
Pet Toys
Nothing is ever enough for our furry family members, which is why, if you have a pet, chances are you're constantly buying them new toys to play with. Yes, we are aware of how expensive this can get, which is why we fully recommend the Dollar Store next time you want to spoil your four-legged baby.
The Dollar Store offers everything from rubber duckies and squeaky balls, to frisbees and catnip toys. And you can probably walk out with a whole new toy collection for just $5!
Power Strips
When it comes to buying electrical gadgets, you probably shouldn't skimp. And while there are extremely cheap power strips available at the Dollar Store, you should probably avoid them and go to a proper electrical supply shop.
After all, it can be very annoying to realize that the new power strip you bought isn't working, especially in the middle of a busy day when you need to plug in a million different things. Or even worse, if you buy a low-quality power strip, it might seriously harm your electronics.
Electrical Cords
The electrical cords available at the Dollar Store may be cheap, but there's a reason for that. They're usually not of the highest quality and could be more likely to break, causing a fire hazard.
So, just to be safe, you should stick to buying electrical cords from reputable retailers and make sure they always have the CSA sticker of approval.
