    Just got home from some shopping. Hit up Big Lots and Dollar General to add to my food preps. Dollar Tree is next. Lots of good things at cheap prices. What's your favorite?

    Fred's for me and Harbor Freight would not recommend any places like these for quality stuff but very good for things that don't need to be great quality.

    I like them a lot as well and can actually find a lot of things there that I can't find locally......... like cant hooks. Only thing I don't like about them is the shipping on some things cost more than what the thing cost.
