Top dollar store finds of the week!

Big W wins didn’t disappoint this week.

  1. Mini first aid kit. Tiny enough to fit in your pocket, but it got everything; bandages, medical tape, ointment - whole nine yards.
  2. O 'oodles ramen. 20-cent ramen too good to pass up on.
  3. 'Freshies' Bath Bombs - These aren't Lush, but they smell almost as good!
  4. Crispy Circles - Definite Cheerios clone, but tastes nearly identical, and less than a buck a box.

Remember, one man's trash is another man's treasure, happy hunting! 💰

Right on! Love a good dollar store score. Those Crispy Circles, they're the best, just as good as the name brand. A little less sugar too if I'm not mistaken. And that first aid kit, dang! Sounds like a sweet find. I usually just customize my own but for pocket size convenience at that price, I'd grab a few!

OMG 'Freshies' are rad! Got 'em last week. For the price, they're pretty legit. No Lush but I'll save the $$$.

You’re happy with 20-cent ramen? Man, get a life or at least proper food! 😂

FYI, the cost per unit for those Crispy Circles is still higher compared to buying Cheerios in bulk if one has storage, not a significant difference but worth considering.

Thanks for sharing, never thought of looking for first aid kits there. Gonna check it out this weekend.

Honey, you've got an eye for treasure! That mini first aid kit is a cute and handy thing, never know when you might need it. And when you're dipping those cheap and filling O'oodles ramen, no one will ever know you saved a bunch. Keep up with your thrifty streak!

First aid kit? Pocket-size, you say? Not bad for an urban survival kit. Would recommend adding a small multi-tool or Swiss Army knife though. Never underestimate the utility of a good blade or simple tool!

The 'Freshies' bath bombs are a life saver! My kids won't even get in the tub if there's not a bath bomb involved. At this price, I can finally stop rationing them 😅.
