If you’ve shopped Dollar Tree lately, you know the struggle. Some items are pure junk, and others are absolute gems hiding in plain sight. I shop Dollar Tree as part of my job, so I’ve done the sorting for you. Here’s everything worth grabbing this week, plus a few hacks you’re going to want to steal.
The Back to School Caddy You Need Now
Before the back-to-school section disappears, grab one of the small art caddies. It fits everything from water bottles to a large McDonald’s drink, and it’s sturdier and more reusable than what you get at the drive-thru. It also doubles as a coffee run caddy for your team.
New Floral Arrivals Worth Grabbing
The eucalyptus and pumpkin picks have gone up to $1.75, but the long-stemmed fuller ones without glitter are worth it. They don’t scream Dollar Tree once they’re styled into a tablescape.
Storage Wins: Flip and Fresh, Snackle Boxes, and More
The Flip and Fresh containers are meant for meal prep, but they’re perfect for small gifts loaded with paper shred and a gift card. New clear acrylic containers are also showing up, including round snackle boxes that work well for craft notions like beads or diamond art supplies.
Is The $1 Price Point Is Making a Comeback at Dollar Tree?!
Some Halloween items are back down to the classic $1 price point. It’s a small shift, but a hopeful one if you’ve felt the pinch of Dollar Tree’s price increases over the past few years.
Fall and Halloween New Arrivals
New mugs, watercolor napkins, soap dispensers, treat bags, and glitter-free fall signs are all in stores now. On the Halloween side, vintage-style creature figures and a metal skeleton with a kickstand are giving major Joanna Parker vibes for a fraction of the price.
