sugar babies

I cruised the new Dollar Tree in town today.

I have become that cool.

After checking the supply of pregnancy tests (we finally have a dollar store that stocks them! - and NO, I did not buy one) and picking up some dishcloths (my Williams-Sonoma dishcloths love to hang out with their Dollar Tree cousins) I hit the candy aisle. Birds sang as I dodged little old ladies, sunshine filled my heart as I gazed upon row after row of brightly colored boxes, I peed rainbows.

It never fails to amaze me how fabulous the candy selection is at dollar stores. I guess the grocery store has all of the same candy, but I never really spend much time in the candy aisle (potato chip aisle is a different story). I only came home with a box of Sugar Babies (self restraint - go me!), which I am now sharing with J. I would have come home with a bag of Sugar Daddies, because I lovelovelove them - but I couldn't find any :( Oh well, candy and my little family makes for a pretty great Saturday night :)

My dishclothes all have holes in them, perhaps I need to hit up our dollar store:) There are about 7 within a mile from our house....how in God's name do that many survive?

Dollar stores have a wide selection. I also used their pregnancy tests and they seem to work just dandy :) I too love sugar babies and haven't had them in forever.

Dollar stores are great when you can find good stuff! Be careful, sometimes they trick you into thinking something is a good deal for a dollar when it's not!

Dollar store pregnancy tests are the BEST! I swear they work better than the expensive ones... I always buy candy from there, too. My faves are Good & Plenty or Mike & Ikes - Tropical Typhoon flavor :)
