8. Gift Wrap & Cards
Tissue paper and gift bags are something I hate buying, and that’s why I have a stack of old bags that I’ve saved over the years. But every once in awhile I need blue colored tissue paper (not pink) and a manly colored gift bag (not polka-dot), so I head to the dollar store. They have every size and color and they’re all the same price. I usually don’t buy their wrapping paper because it’s just too thin and tears easily. One situation where it would come in handy is if you want to simply wrap a table in wrapping paper for a cute look. Perfect purchase then! Dollar stores also have a decent selection of greeting cards and they are often 2 for $1!
