At Dollar Tree? Junk food.

I buy Jack Links All American beef and cheese sticks, best price anywhere.
Sport cap gatorades, frozen Icee cups, cold coke products like a bottle of Sprite or Coke, theater box candy, lays Stax chips.

I dont actually buy any off branded food there, they sell enough "normal" branded candy and food.
The only off brand food that I have bought there, I bought black olives and they didnt taste very good.

As for a "dollar store" like Dollar General, mine is essentially a mini food mart anyways. You can buy brand food for the same price or cheaper than the grocery store. Really good prices on cereal actually.
>>
I prefer the 99 cent stores over Dollar Tree. I typically get pasta, lentils, and the occasional pasta sauce or canned tomato product. Their produce is pretty good too, generally fresh. They will occasionally have random discounted stuff like yogurt and the like, but that's really variable. I also like to get frozen berries there.
>>
>>9213455
They had those Oscar Meyer hot dogs with the cheese in them for a dollar a pack and I'm a sucker for those.

We recently got a grocery outlet store than sells stuff that is
>discontinued
>out of season
>restaurant surplus
>damaged (those trucks that spill 2000 boxes of Capn Crunch on the highway in a crash? those boxes end up here)
>expired/nearly expired
>random stuff that wasn't selling well at regular supermarkets

Prices tend to be 50-90% less than typical grocery stores

Shelf stable. As in doesn't require immediate refrigeration or special storing.

This means a month to a few or years. Not eternity, use your noggin.

A lot of black people shop there, and they're the type of black people who don't like whitey going to their store.

broomsticks. i own a husky and have to drymop several times a day. cheap plastic broomsticks would break after a few weeks. luckily though my local dollar stores have started carrying slightly higher quality broom sticks/painters sticks with metal screw on ends. haven't had to replace one in months
>>
Toiletries, dry goods, medications, soap, cleaners, dog snacks, some canned goods etc. They have a lot of the same brands as big grocery stores at drastically lower prices.

>They have a lot of the same brands as big grocery stores at drastically lower prices.

If you actually break it down, its way more expensive buying it at the dollar store.
99 cents looks better than buying something for 2.50, until you realize you get 4 times the product.
>>

this honestly, I've been to a few and it's literally a store full of totally worthless crap

Not .mil but I also get these sometimes

nuts and seeds and maybe some spices.

BUT IN ALL SERIOUSNESS, DOES NO ONE BUY THE DOLLAR TREE FOAMBOARD!?!?!?!
>>
>>9218066
I bought their tape dispenser and some of the round metal pencil holders.
Some of their stuff is as nice or nicer than small stuff youd find at walmart for twice the price

Just watch what you buy and youll be fine
>>
>>9218114
yeah tape is nice, but I dont buy much food from them. I like building rc planes from their foamboard and im super autism about it.
>>
My dollar tree sells the big bottles of arizona tea, the lemon ones. Not a bad deal for a buck.

Also occasionally an ice cream sandwich. I'm sure a box isn't too much but I don't need a box honestly.
>>
>>9213348
dollars
>>
>>9217794
I'm capable of comparing sizes. I can buy a 15 oz can at Dollar Tree for $1.00 or a 15 oz can at local big grocery chain for $1.49. Or spend a $1 instead of $1.59 for a 1lb bag of rice or beans. That's a significant savings on each month's grocery budget. For the same brand product.
>>

This and also Chester's Hot Fries

Not necessarily /ck/ material, but you can save a ton of money buying cleaning supplies at the dollar store. I usually buy sponges, gloves, cleaning solutions, etc.

The best thing you can buy at Dollar Tree is LA's Totally Awesome floor cleaner. It's just as good as swiffer fluid but a tiny fraction of the price. Also the arm & hammer baking soda containers for vacuuming.

I go about once a month and spend 15$ on what would otherwise be 30$ at a grocery store.
>>
>>9213366
99c store is a whole different thing from Dollar Tree. It's unusual that any food from Dollar Tree is actually good, unless you're looking for junk food. Good for cleaning supplies, the occasional soap or shaving cream, maybe.

99c, on the other hand, has a sizeable produce section and some selection of canned goods & such. Really worth looking at, in my neighborhood, anyway.
