I have to confess that I became addicted to Dollar Tree stores when I was in the US last year. I’m not one of those crazy people who buys random stuff just because it’s cheap, but they do have a lot of really good products that I actually need. In fact, I’m still going through my stash of waste bags that I bought expressly for emptying the litter box, buying enough so that I could scoop twice a day and have enough bags for a year. That investment was all of two or three dollars. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

So when I saw a Dollar Tree by the Walmart in Minot, I ambled over after dinner to see if I could get the things on my list:<\/p>\n

a) A new pair of nitrile-coated gardening gloves, which are awesome for hooking and unhooking the toad as they are warm, but water proof, and easy to slip on:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My last pair was pink and my current pair is green. Stock image because they are filthy. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

b) A slightly bigger basket for the produce. I had bought a black one last year:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And think that this slightly bigger pink one fits in better with my decor (although it’s a bit too hot pink):<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

c) A tiny waste container for the dressing room into which I could put cotton swabs, band-aids, lysol wipes, etc. without having anything on the floor. This yellow bucket was perfect:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I also picked up a couple of food items, including honey graham crackers, that I haven’t been able to find anywhere else, and a bath sponge. The cashier said to me, “Did you find everything you were looking for? And maybe some extras?” I don’t think that he believed me that everything but the honey-mustard chips were on the list! And as for the chips, I’m addicted to mustard<\/a>, okay?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
