I LOVE the dollar store. I fell in love with it when I started having kids. I can always find great little ‘treasures’ for the kids and at a price I can afford. As a teacher, there are tons of things that come in handy also, again, for a great price. Now, a lot of the items are so super cheap that they’re not worth it, but most of the time I can find great deals on things that I really don’t need. 🙂 Shannon is always making fun of me for wanting to go to the dollar store. I defend it and explain why I ‘need’ the items I purchased and defend their quality.
Except for this item. For Christmas, I put this cute little build-a-car in each of the boys’ stocking. I thought, what a great activity to do with Daddy! Well, tonight, they sat down to put it together.
Yeah, piece. of. junk. While I’ll admit that this little car wasn’t a great buy, I still defend the dollar store and its treasures.
