i have a love/hate relationship with the Dollar Tree store. Sometimes, i find what i need, but other times, i don't. The love part is mostly on the fact that most items are a dollar or less. Am i cheap or just being cost-effective? i know the products that they offer aren't great, but if it works, it works. Of course, other things i see like chicken breast, milk and Sunny D are items that require me to think twice before buying and ask the question: why is it a dollar? i did check the expiration date on the Sunny D and it's this year, October. Still good? Yeah, but at what means did the Dollar Tree go to get this Sunny D and still make a "profit" out of it? Gosh, did they steal it or bargain it down to get a 200% profit? Well, either way, there are good items there to get. Things like poster boards, stickers, cups or markers, which are surprisingly good. Oh, back to the unappealing items, i did find it amusing to find different brands of toothpaste that i never heard of. Anyone saw tubes of 'Aim' toothpaste at the local Safeway? If you did, i must be blind...
Okay, so God did show me that i can know how to save some money with things that i like to make. That's awesome and that shows that God always provides for the things we need. In a sense, i'm glad that i managed to do some personal bible study at work today. More details on that tomorrow. It's the lesson for TNT!
