No longer does your sponge squat flatly beside the faucet, on the counter, or in the bottom of your sink bottom, where it wallows in that residue and water. It instead drains through the 30-plus holes, of varying sizes, carved into the bottom of this device. That keeps your sponge well-drained and dry between each use, helping to avoid bacteria buildup and associated odors.
I enjoy cooking, but often feel overwhelmed by cleaning and organizing my kitchen - especially the cabinets and counter. They are usually a jumble of tableware, serveware, napkins, and random knickknacks. So I'm constantly on the hunt for budget-friendly kitchen storage organizers. Recently I saw an incredible storage hack to help organize kitchen items, and it utilizes products found at Dollar Tree. It's exactly what I've been looking for!
This may not be one of Dollar Tree's hidden gourmet gems, but if you're a fan of the McDonald's McRib sandwich, it's worth checking to see if your location has any of these sandwiches in stock. At $1.50 each, these are a cheap and quick alternative to the McRib, without waiting for McDonald's unpredictable release schedule. You can cook one from frozen in the microwave in just two minutes. It features a pressed and formed boneless pork patty with a slightly sweet, smoky barbecue sauce.
If you're looking for ways to save money on groceries, buying food in bulk can be a wise economic decision. You might not think of Dollar Tree as the go-to place for bulk food, but it's actually a great solution for anyone who doesn't have a Costco or Sam's Club membership. While you can't place bulk orders or buy large quantities of items at individual Dollar Tree stores, you can actually place bulk orders via the website and either have them shipped to your home or your closest local store.
It's only early January, so I'm still hearing a lot of people talk about their fresh starts and resolutions. Even if you're not one for those kinds of traditions, January tends to be a relatively sleepy month without many large obligations (plus, it's cold out!). One way to put that downtime to good use is by getting a bit more organized. What better place to start than your desk?
As convenient as things like Google Tasks, Notion, and other digital productivity apps can be, some people's brains just work better with good old-fashioned pen and paper. If you prefer the latter and are looking to jazz up your current note-taking situation for cheap, then you're in luck! Dollar Tree is currently selling cute, colorful office supplies to transform your desk and make you feel more productive as you head into 2026.
The dinnerware at Dollar Tree usually comes with a shockingly low price tag, such as $1.50 for a plate that rivals Williams Sonoma's luxe look. The designs are eye-catching, seasonal, and often very elegant, but it's the notion of buying something cheap that makes some people worry about its safety. Are dishes from Dollar Tree actually safe to use for food? The answer depends on the type of dinnerware you're buying.
There's always a lot going on during the holidays, and that often means a lot of stuff. There are gifts to shop for (and receive), decorations to put up, and festive food as far as the eye can see. It's often delightful, but it can also get exhausting. Sometimes you want to forget about ornaments, tinsel, and Advent calendars and just get back to basics.
One of the newest additions to Dollar Tree's wide-ranging inventory is a variety of little woven baskets. They have a rustic wicker-style look and come in several designs, including classic tan with white or black rims, and one basket that's entirely white with black accents that look almost like wicker polka-dots. Dollar Tree's site says designs can vary by store, but either way, they all retail for just $1.25 apiece.
Dollar Tree is known for offering bargain buys, but spices may not be at the top of your mind as you enter the store. In an assignment that may have you adding items to your shopping list, one of our Tasting Table team writers tried 10 spices from Dollar Tree and found that the Supreme Tradition Garlic Powder is one that must be sought out during your next visit.
We wanted to see what kind of frozen meals lie within the retailer's walls and were pleased to find some scrumptious options, whether you're in the mood for pizza, pasta, or protein. The prices of these products range, but the highest priced item of the bunch is $4, allowing you to find at least a few things that might appeal to your taste buds and budget.
We independently select these products-if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission. All prices were accurate at the time of publishing. Custom-made gift baskets can be a great way to show you care this holiday season, and just because they're custom doesn't mean they can't be easy to put together. Choosing a smaller vessel for your basket, like these charming Santa-themed buckets from the Dollar Tree, can simplify the process while still impressing at the gift exchange.
Williams-Sonoma is known for having gorgeous, timeless products. While some of its best kitchen tools cost $50 or less, others can be a bit on the pricey side. If you covet certain items from its catalogue but can't afford them, you're probably always on the lookout for a good dupe - and one of our favorites comes from the Dollar Tree, one of the best stores to shop at for affordable glassware.
I'm a cleaning and organizing writer, and I'm going to let you in on a secret: Discount stores are the holy grail of ingenious storage finds, and Dollar Tree is the best of them all! Plus, thanks to social media, there's a whole new world of game-changing organizing hacks and tricks using Dollar Tree items just waiting for you to try - from a smart shoe storage hack to a clever kitchen cupboard trick.
There are actually several genius ways to organize your Nespresso pods or coffee capsules. But few are both cheaper and easier than the DIY Dollar Tree organizer created by Gail's Designs on TikTok. All you need are some zip ties, one Cooking Concepts paper towel holder, and four Cooking Concepts wire napkin holders - the latter two are just further examples of the many kitchen organization must-haves at Dollar Tree.
My family tends to do most of our back-to-school shopping online. It's fairly quick and painless, even if it's not always the most affordable option. However, as September rolled around this year, I was curious what I'd find in terms of value and selection if I shopped in person. So, I put two famous discount retailers, Walmart and Dollar Tree, to the test. For the sake of this story, I focused on buying everything my daughter entering second grade would need for the year.
