Easter Bargains to be Found

 

Dollar Stores are a great place to pick up affordable Easter items. Particularly candy. Which is a must have. What children don’t know is that basket, though  delivered by the Easter Bunny… can be quite costly.  The contents come from your shelf, so where you shop to buy them, is important. And probably like you, I used to spend  major cash at the holidays for confections at the big box stores.  But not anymore.  They’ve gotten too expensive. From jellybeans,  circus peanuts, cotton candy, chocolate and peanut butter bunnies, crosses and the like… you can walk away with everything you need for pennies at a Dollar store. They sell NAME brands too. This close to Easter they may be low on inventory. But there are still bargains to be found.  So scout them out. I usually get baskets to repurpose for Easter, from the thrift stores. But the Dollar stores have them too. And in this day and age of Covid and the pandemic, perhaps you want to buy new.  It’s your call. But remember you don’t have to spend a fortune. Dollar stores also have an abundance of little tchotchkes… that are usually no more than a dollar or two. And they are sitting on shelves, just begging to come home and light up someone’s day. Enjoy your holiday and remember you can be thrifty everyday. There are plenty of stores that cater to 
a budget friendly crowd.
