You're missing out if you haven't been visiting the dollar store on a regular basis. Dollar store aisles teem with treasures just waiting to save you money. Cheapism.com has compiled a list of best dollar store buys -- and a few things to leave on the shelves.
Party Supplies.
Dollar stores are awash in party supplies such as balloons filled with helium, which go for $1 each compared with $3 to $8 elsewhere. You can also load up on party decorations, gift bag fillers, and invitations. For those all-important presents, you'll find wrapping paper, gift bags, tissue paper, and tape.
Office Supplies.
While school supplies are best bought in August during back-to-school sales, the dollar store is a good place to stock up year-round. Check your local dollar store for paper, pens, pencils, markers, crayons, Post-it notes, tape, and more. The dollar store is also a good place to get mailing supplies, such as bubble envelopes, for cheap.
