Concept Saturday / Dollar Tree food,

Yes, you can get good food at the DT.   You can also get nasty food at the DT....just saying...

There are a few things, mostly name brand things .

Some of the things, namely garlic and some frozen foods come from China.   Buy at your own comfort level.

The best things are taco shells, tortillas. Pizza sauce, suddenly salad, Betty Crocker products, ;we have got hunts tomatoes, organic, named brand enchilada sauce for a dime.  Hunts pasta sauce, Barilla pasta.  Named brand frozen potatoes.

Sometimes they get overstocks or things that were in a test market and didn’t fly,

Buyer beware, but anything that is not going to be a long term item in your house, is probably a good buy.  Napkins, kids work books, balloons, party decorations and present bags.

A great tip, if you are a Costco toilet paper  shopper, buy one pack of dollar store toilet paper.  Put it in the very back of the closet.   You will never be stuck if someone  forgets to tell that you are running low. Don’t  need to say more.

You still have to know your prices . Some things are cheaper at other stores.   Sometimes the  quality isn't up to high standards.

Pounder glasses are good as well as some glass wine glasses.

They do take coupons,  no more than four in a day per household and some managers don’t have a sense of humor,   Like Edmonds for instance.  Kenmore, on the other hand.....

Please feel free to comment on what you do like to buy at the DT.
