      Some of their products are a nope
      But love their storage items and crafting supplies
      Their seasonal signs are amazing and love the beach theme
      $1.25 is still a bargain for so many things
      My solar lights still work from there and they are a few years old

    Those ice trays are REALLY cool! I have an ice maker now, but had to rely on ice cube trays for a LONG time. For anyone who has ice cube trays without lids, here's a trick; put the water in a measuring cup or even a regular cup, then fill the ice cube tray IN THE FREEZER with it. That way you're not moving a tray full of water around and risking to spill it. n.n

Mine ended up freezing in the winter so please be sure to get an anti-freeze washer fluid to avoid any potential damages to your car.

I was thrilled a few years ago when my sister-in-law showed me the silicone ice cube trays she had. So much better than the plastic ones I had. I've now got 4 of the 1" cube trays (15 cubes per, iirc). But covered trays, talk about genius.

    Thanks for always sharing your great Dollar Tree finds! It’s actually a 6-pack of toothbrushes in the holder (8 pieces including the holder) sneaky wording!😉 I only noticed because I bought them awhile ago. The toothbrushes don’t hold up well after multiple uses, but work great for one time use if you have an overnight guest who needs one!

    Thank you again for a great video, Matt! Caveat emptor, however, on the cereals you mentioned. For those trying to avoid wheat, the off-brands at Dollar Tree will often have wheat, whereas the name brands of the same items will not. For example, the "Honey Nut" Oatie Hoops, or whatever they may be, will sneak in some wheat instead of something like Cheerios, which will be gluten free.

    My local Dollar Tree has a huge wall covered in nothing but Betty Crocker utensils, and potholders/dish towels. Good snag if wanting to put together a big basket gift for a bridal shower. Goo Gone is good, but for most sticky gunk remover you can just use regular old kitchen cooking oil (canola, vegetable, etc.) Caution with those foot scrubber things, they have a weak spot right where the product narrows to form the handle and it will break right off at that spot. It is not useless, as you can still use it without the handle, it is just the point of it.

    Thanks Matt. We had one of the car shades last for about 2 years using it daily, the skewers work well for crafts and in the garden for a variety of applications. We are not fans of the not-sponge sponges because they do not hold water well. The sugar & parmesan cheese dispensers are great to throw in a picnic basket, just be sure to cover the opening with plastic wrap and screw on the lid before travelling to prevent spills.

Those ice trays with lids are also good when you want to freeze olive oil with herbs.

    I have some of the icecube trays with lids I bought from a different store. I like them very much. It's nice to not have all you trays stuck together!
    I will say from my experience that it is better to fill them without the lid on. I started out filling the trays with the lids in place, but they all seemed to drip out the sides. I have since switched to putting the lids on after I fill them- no problems since. I am happy to know that DT has these as the store I found them in the first place no longer has them. We use A LOT of ice 🧊 in our house so our trays get a lot of wear and tear- I need to go stock up on these! Thanks for taking the time to share! God bless.
