I am gonna take you inside my local store
and hopefully blow your mind with some of these gift ideas.

All right, in the number one spot
and one of the more overlooked product categories
at the Dollar Tree, automotive and in particular
consumer grade tool options for that DIY
and even the automotive section
has some surprisingly good offerings
for anyone in this category.
Whether it's that hard to shop for guy
or a woman that loves a wrench,
these are great options for anyone on your gift list.
In the number two spot, spa gifts.
With spas closed and gift cards
sometimes a little bit more transparent than you'd like
because they have that monetary value attached to them.
Things like bath bombs that you can find at the Dollar Tree
and pair that with a candle.
Just a phenomenal selection of products
that you can find at the Dollar Tree,
and something that always puts a smile on my wife's face.
And now for the other women in my life,
that sounds wrong but my mom, my grandma,
the baker in your world
in the number three spot of great holiday gift ideas
from the Dollar Tree, Betty Crocker kitchen utensils
are sold at the Dollar Tree.
And while these could be great
for preparing your holiday meal or your Christmas dinner
you could definitely put a bunch of these together
and make that a holiday gift or a stocking stuffer.
In the number four spot
before I get to some of the more untapped
and lesser known categories at the Dollar Tree, books.
Now, bear with me a moment.
I know books, aren't always the most interesting gift
but you could really stock up on bestsellers
and some great books for a dollar
cater to someone's interests, find their favorite author
for a hobbyist, an avid reader,
someone with a lot of time on their hands.
And when you group all of these books together
as a great holiday gift idea, you're gonna find yourself
on the number five spot on my list, baskets.
Oh wait, what baskets?
Yes, you could give someone a basket of books
or a basket of bath bombs.
You can do the DIY basket route at the Dollar Tree
better than any other retailer,
not just in terms of the baskets being highly affordable
but you could put together some great holiday food options
and make your own gift basket,
so much less expensive than those preassembled gift baskets
from the major retailers.
And you can do it all on a dime,
put it together make it look good.
Oh yes.
In the number six spot
like I need to show you six fingers like a moron.
The Hallmark cards
that you can purchase from the Dollar Tree
at a dollar a piece,
are not only an incredible year round buy
but these are great holiday purchases to accompany a gift.
Or if you wanted to buy a gift card
or put a check or money here and put this into the mail,
there's so many ways to make these cards work for you.
And that same name brand gift card
that's marked up by 30 or 40% elsewhere
is a wonderful $1 buy at the Dollar Tree.
In the number seven spot
before I get to what could be
the most valuable category on this list,
the gift wrapping and gift bags
that you can find at the Dollar Tree
are not only a fraction of the price
of what you would find anywhere else,
but wrap your gifts from the Dollar Tree if you can
or gifts from another retailer
you'll still save an inordinate amount of money
on both wrapping paper and gift bags.
In number eight spot self care
and in particular beauty name products,
one of the best and most overlooked categories
at the Dollar Tree.
I actually learned more about this
from a subscriber's comments
as part of a previous Dollar Tree video that I did.
But if you weren't aware name brand makeup
that is marked up like you wouldn't believe
at CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, and other places
from E.L.F. and Wet n Wild
are some of the top buys that you can make
in the self care and beauty section from the Dollar Tree.
In many cases, these are not smaller sizes of the products.
And if you are stocking up on face masks or makeup brushes
to put together that perfect gift for someone
or you're trying to get makeup for that holiday party,
whether it's a Zoom party, a virtual party or otherwise,
this is an amazing category of products to shop from
both as a gift idea and for self-care from the Dollar Tree.
In the number nine spot
before we get to some controversial items on my list,
and some bonus buys
Christmas decorations are an incredible buy
from the Dollar Tree.
Not only are ornaments a great gift
and something that many families like to share
and keep for the years to come,
but if you look at our Christmas tree
which my wife has decorated so beautifully.
It's looking better than ever
not only in terms of the decorations and the ornaments
that we picked up from the Dollar Tree,
but my wallet is looking significantly more full this year.
Thanks to not overpaying for decorations
from other retailers like Crate and Barrel
and Target and others.
In the number 10 spot of top Christmas gift ideas
and good holiday offerings from the Dollar Tree
for Hanukkah or just keeping your kids entertained inside,
and this will get controversial possibly in a moment
the kid craft ideas, the coloring books, the paints
and many of the creative offerings designated for kids
are just remarkable in terms of what you can find
at the Dollar Tree.
The stickers, even the window coverings
that we've used in my daughter's room.
Over the course of Halloween
these were pumpkins and scarecrows,
now we've switched to Santa Claus and snowmen
and even the butterflies
that adorn my two year old daughter's room,
all items that we purchase from the Dollar Tree.
Now here's the controversial part
while the creative offerings
and the coloring books are awesome Dollar Tree buys,
I'm not so sure about the toys.
If you're a parent right now, a grandparent
if you've purchased any toys from the Dollar Tree
please let me know in the comments section
of whether or not you think the Dollar Tree toys
are a good purchase.
I have curated some complaints tied to durability
and some of the product safety issues
that some people associate with Dollar Tree toys.
So let me know, I'm not gonna take a stand
until I read through your comments.
Now, for the bonus best buys from the Dollar Tree,
socks are a great purchase.
I don't know if this is necessarily
something that you'd like to receive as a present.
But my grandparents sometimes hide cash in socks
and then send them out as random holiday gifts.
They are fun.
And for Dollar Tree shoppers
who prefer to explore options online,
this is another important bonus.
Keep an eye on the smaller quantities department
that you can find from the Dollar Tree website.
Here you'll find great stocking stuffers, crafting supplies,
even in the toys category you're gonna find things
like these Lego block knockoffs that are very popular
in our household, a dollar per unit.
These are limited quantities so you don't need to buy a lot.
And if you have a family tradition
of finding inexpensive products
that you can then donate to women and children's shelters
this time of year as we do,
this is a great category from which you can seek some value,
find some great gifts and buy as little
or as many items as you need.
Keep a very close eye on the colorful closeout glassware.
This is incredibly popular this time of year
and you're going to find great ways
to not only adorn your holiday table, but for those of you
that are trying to find great host or hostess gifts
I'm telling you this category is jam packed
with both highly popular products for people of all ages,
doses of color, and some incredibly low prices per unit.
And travel mugs, or just mugs in general
could be a really nice cozy holiday gift for a coworker.
Some of those secret Santa gifts,
you could always put a gift card
or something into the mug itself
for Starbucks or your favorite coffee place.
And that would be
a really good Christmas gift idea from the Dollar Tree.
