what "cheap" stuff at the dollar store did you buy

[ChristaDeVil]

I've been back! This time, I got Ziploc bags and glow sticks!!! Our DT had the POTC Sunscreen, but I didn't get any because I had just purchased sunscreen.

I just bought POTC sunscreen at DT. I was so excited to see it. There was only one left so I snatched it up. I also got 2, 25pc Mickey puzzles, disney princess lollipops, princess figure dolls, stickers, magic towels and over the door shoe organizer. I am still looking for a pop up hamper. I also saw yo-yo's, tops, jumpropes, coloring books, crayons and so much more. I could spend way too many dollars there. I just know that before we leave at the end of the month I will be back there a few more times to check on the inventory.

Keeping my fingers crossed that when I go back tomorrow they will have POTC sunscreen! Our song LOVES POTC!!! And it's only $1!!

Still looking for Disney Jibitz!! Found some but they weren't Disney. Crossing my fingers for these!!!

My recent cool find was Disney Princess light up/flashing pins!! My daughter will love these on her lanyard!! I found Cinderella, Ariel and Belle!!

Also got the night lights. I hate having to leave the "big" bathroom light on for the kids!!

....And found a Tinkerbell Sunscreen mixed in with POTC!!

My best friend is convinced that I need rehab for my Dollar Tree addiction!

Last week while searching for the sunscreen I found a Cars drawstring bag, cars and tink frisbees, tink silly putty and POTC cups, plastic sandwhich containers and little snack holders.
Oh, This may have been at Just a Buck, I went to a few dollar stores that day.

Went today and found more goodies!

Mini light saber in blue and red (turns off and on, just like the princess wand)

Still no POTC sun screen. I'm still hoping to see it!

I also went to Deals (another $ store) and found small Mickey and Pooh puzzles along with a lot of books and coloring books.

I went to our Dollar Tree the other day and hardly found anything. I managed to get a few glow sticks but the store was a MESS and had many empty shelves. Not much Disney stuff at all. No Disney coloring books, not a crayon of any brand to be found, no light up stuff, etc. I did get my rain ponchos and some regular sunscreen.

I'm still looking for Disney Princess window clings

I too went to the Dollar Tree and didn't find diddly They did have the jump rope, paddle ball and glow sticks, but not what I want...oh, well, maybe I will find it in another one..

And then once we fly in we have or limo service take us to a grocery store and get:

Two packs of water
Fruit
Any Snacks we want
Gatorade Packets to put in re-filled water bottles
Breakfast foods
Batteries
Gatorade/Propel/Powerade (DEFINITELY GET THESE!!!, your body needs to replace electrolites and key nutrients that water does not replace!! Trust me, I've had an incident at AK and I'm a runner)
Gum

I got these, as well as a tinkerbell one, too!! They are the best working headbands i've seen for my daughters hair...lol

It's so crazy, normally I have to redo her hair about 6 times a day, but with these, I only adjust her headband once or twice and she doesn'
t spend all day blowing or brushing her hair out of her face

I found a lot of Disney stuff at our Dollar Tree recently (no POTC sunscreen, though). We don't have a plain old Dollar Store. But I hear they have great stuff.

Our Dollar Tree is dirty and they don't have the over the door shoe organizers. I'll have to check at Deals or some of the other Dollar type places.

Between the dollar stores and the dollar spot and travel size section I've been stocking up for our trip in September. By then I'm afraid that I won't be able to lift the suitcase!

I got all the travel size toiletries including Axe deodorant and body wash for my son for under $1. I got a few different visors for myself. I got glow sticks but I also got these string necklaces with a glowing shape on them. I got a red heart for myself and a yellow disc for my son. Two small magnetic disney dry erase boards for our resort room door. A pack of disney markers. A bunch of different disney stickers. Pop-up hamper and over the door shoe rack. Toileties holder that hangs in the shower. (I got a bunch of really nice disney gift bags in different sizes for $1.25 each but I'm not taking those to WDW) Travel size laundry detergent and dryer sheets. Pocket packs plus a small room size box of Kleenex. I haven't found any disney window clings though, I would really like to get some of those.
