- These are the top 10 things you should be buying
at Dollar Tree this January, 2022
and they're starting the year off strong with some top
decor finds and amazing new items for around your home.
In the first spot, $1 security cameras
that are completely fake,
but I decided to buy and try these just to see how realistic
they look as a theft deterrent.
Surprisingly enough, for a dollar,
they actually come with a mounting kit.
This does give you some peace of mind,
alongside a real antitheft system,
which I always advocate for.
The next item on my list actually works,
it's an LED work light.
It has two lights built into it, highly portable,
100 lumens on the main light,
which is surprising given this as a dollar
and it also has a carry handle.
So you could use this in emergencies or potentially
hang this up, possibly for camping or hiking as well.
Then the number two spot, whether you like it or not,
I feel like we just finished Christmas five minutes ago,
but Dollar Tree wants you to know Valentine's Day
is around the corner
and this January is potentially the time to prepare.
The Valentine's Day decor from tinsel signs,
to all sorts of wooden wall decorations
and even some nice buckets,
which you could stuff with Valentine's candy,
including all of your favorite chocolates,
all repackaged and ready for Valentine's Day
at some frugal prices are great grabs.
In addition to the Valentine's day party goods,
all sorts of knickknacks and things that would be great
for school, but the real winner in my opinion
are the two for $1 Valentine's Day, Hallmark gift cards,
everything from romantic cards to your significant other,
to cards specifically branded for sons, daughters,
and grandkids.
These Hallmark cards are really nice
and again, you get two for a dollar.
If your Valentine's day plans include any champagne
or Prosecco, in the number three spot,
the silver and clear ice buckets that you see right here
are brand new at Dollar Tree this month.
This would be great to elevate any type of beverage at home.
In my case, I decided to buy and try this
and elevate some ginger ale in my office,
which has never looked so good.
The silver bucket has a nice hotel feel,
maybe for a staycation or breakfast in bed.
Speaking of breakfast, if you enjoy eggs,
egg containers are very trendy right now
as a top fridge organization tray
and the Dollar Tree clear egg containers
that you see right here,
another product that I wanted to buy
and try before I recommended it,
but it is a self-explanatory product,
durable, easy to clean, I was impressed.
These large jugs with sealed lids that you see right here
are typical of what you might see in a restaurant,
but they are awesome for serving or hosting
and for things like homemade sauces, salad dressings,
hot sauce, anything you wanna store
in a clear container where the lid is attached.
This is a fantastic find for just a buck.
Before I get to home decor
and sticking with that whole serveware theme,
and the number four, if you enjoy a good margarita,
the new margarita cups are brand new at Dollar Tree,
and they are more refined and less chunky
than what you might've seen at Dollar Tree in the past.
These are more reminiscent of what you would see
in a higher end restaurant
and these new glass jar cups with lids and matching straws
are definitely building on the popularity
and trendiness of last year's whole beverage in a jar thing.
But these bad boys come equipped with funky new lids,
be fun for a party
and if these color options don't float your boat,
the glass jar with copper lid that you see right here
could definitely handle a beverage.
But I actually think this could double as a decorative piece
or potentially a storage option
for anything around your home,
from tossing and paperclips or using this as a pencil holder
in an office to cotton balls in a bathroom.
Check out these lunch storage towers.
They can join at the top.
One half could be used for fruit or veggies.
The other half could be a yogurt or a soup,
multiple color options,
and an awesome find for a dollar, for work for school,
a road trip or any type of meal transportation
and finally, these oversized mugs,
which would easily work as a vessel to enjoy
any type of soup or for one of those oversized cappuccinos,
with a pattern on top like a heart or a happy face
that no one has actually ever served me in my life.
This is a great find as well.
Don't worry, I'm not bitter.
In the number five spot, dry erase storage bins.
The concept is you can write anything you want
onto the side of the bin and then wipe off the label
and reuse it for something else.
I'm into deals and money.
So I opted for the color green
and I decided to buy and try this and bring it home.
You can see I'm using this for cleaning supplies storage.
I found it really easy to write on the side.
It wiped off really easily.
This would work for toy organization.
You could put Christmas decorations in here, and by the way,
I will discuss Christmas decorations more in depth
in the bonus section, this would be great for pet products.
Anything you need to label and access for future use.
One of my other favorite finds this January at Dollar Tree,
if you are looking to update a bathroom
or swap out a backsplash in a kitchen,
these new wallpaper options,
as well as the stick on tiles for a buck each
are a great decor find, new at Dollar Tree this January.
In the number six spot, a product that I've used
with great success that I love.
If you've ever succumbed to a scratch or a dent
in your floor or a piece of furniture
that needs a little bit of a tune-up.
The furniture scratch repair markers that you see right here
is a product I typically only see at a great price
on Amazon, but if you have a hardwood floor,
a dark surface abrasion, a scratch or an accident,
or a piece of furniture with a scratch,
these work really well as a $1 repair option,
provided the color matches,
whatever it is you're trying to fix.
I was a little bit dubious when I saw flashlights
for a dollar at my local Dollar Tree
and I should mention none of this content is sponsored.
Dollar Tree is not paying me to make this video.
I wanted to buy and try this flashlight
before I made any recommendations.
It runs on three AAA batteries, which is a strange number,
which you do need to buy separately,
but for dog-walking or at this price,
having one in every room in your home,
in the event of an emergency,
it might be something to consider.
Alternatively, the mini keyring flashlights
that you see right here are also a dollar each.
They're great if you typically come home to a dark house,
or if you need to see a keyhole,
or if you park in a darker lot where you work.
Also new at Dollar Tree this month,
two great options for your toolkit.
The foldable hex keys you see right here are great.
If you frequently have furniture that you need to assemble,
but more importantly for all of the furniture pieces
that we already own in our home,
that might now need some tightening over the years,
this is very practical.
Also worth a look,
eight in one screwdriver sets,
hard to believe that these are just a dollar,
are available this month, relatively sturdy
and I also really liked the grip
on the screwdrivers themselves.
In the number seven spot, before I get to some crazy ways
to keep your family entertained for a buck,
it's cleaning time and the cleaning products
available at Dollar Tree this month are impressive.
Let's start with the multi-purpose cleaning cloths.
I found a pack of two for a dollar,
advertised as ideal for wood, glass, leather, your car,
or even electronics.
So I decided to test it out as a cleaning cloth,
this worked beautifully cleaning my iPad screen.
I also wanted to test the magic power cleaner,
it's advertised as a multipurpose
hydrogen peroxide based cleaner to remove soap scum
and hard water stains.
So I ventured back to my parents' house,
where as you may know from prior videos,
they have a hard water problem
and I secretly believe they wait every month for me
to release a Dollar Tree video
so I can clean their bathrooms for them.
This product required more elbow grease than I anticipated
and I would just consider it average.
If you're already at Dollar Tree
and you need a multipurpose cleaner,
perhaps you could grab this,
but there are better products on the market.
The LA totally awesome drain cleaner that you see right here
is an oversized alternative to Draino.
It's built to combat any type of drain buildup,
huge package, big bang for your buck for a dollar
and everything I've tested in the past
from the LA totally awesome brand has been a winner
and for all of your other cleaning needs,
keep an eye out for these scrub brushes.
They've got a heavier duty build to them
and a nice rubberized grip.
After all that cleaning, it's time to relax.
For the next point on my list,
let's begin with a facial ice roller,
a potential spa at home product for a buck.
You've likely seen this advertised elsewhere
for a much higher price.
This is supposedly good for de puffing or redness.
Sticking with that spa theme.
These tealight candles where you get a pack of 20
for just one buck are nice to create some ambience
or bring some romance on Valentine's day
to a household room of your choosing.
But for emergencies, power outages,
or for a brief peace of mind,
considering you get 20 of these for a dollar.
Each tealight candle can burn for up to five hours
and again, you get 20 for a dollar or $1.25.
For the next point on my list,
before I got to a somewhat mysterious product,
it's toy time.
These make it block branded LEGO dupes are a deal
given how intricate some of these 80 plus piece sets are
that include construction, army
and fire department themes for only a dollar
and while we're on the topic of toys, kids, doctor,
and dentist sets for bored and playful kids
and frugal parents looks more than decent given the price.
For the next point on my list,
before we get to the bonus section, it's a bag light,
and I am excited about this
because it was surprisingly effective.
While this is built for anyone that does not want to rummage
around a purse, since I do not own a purse
and my wife is currently at the park with our daughter,
I decided to use my backpack, which is a dark abyss
and for the purposes of this demonstration,
you can see this clearly illuminates anything you would need
to see in a dark bag of your choosing.
It has a nice silicone strap that would obviously attach
to whatever it is you need
and it's powered by a built-in battery
and while we're on the topic of lights,
check out these LED flower lights.
These are flashing multicolor lights
that I just don't understand, what would you use these for?
They're bright, they're pretty and for all of you
bright people watching right now and creative DIYers,
let me know in the comments section,
what would one possibly use this for.
I bought them, but I don't know what to do with them.
Now for the bonus buys, Christmas decor,
if you are not aware
is one of the most well-stocked products
at many Dollar Trees right now where you can score
an epic amount of Christmas decor items,
entire cases of whatever you need
for as low as 55 cents per pack,
depending on whether your store has changed over
to a $1.25, but no matter how you look at it,
still a great deal.
From Christmas to St. Patrick's Day,
if you are someone who likes to decorate
for St Patrick's Day early,
which I did not really want to feature as a main item
on my list, since March is two months away.
If you are a planner or you just love the color green,
now is a time to go crazy
and while we're on the topic of spring, gardening tools,
pots and seeds are surprisingly very well-stocked right now
at Dollar Tree and be on the lookout for an eight pound bag
of potting soil for just a dollar.
If you live in a climate where you can put this
into use right now, I am not only jealous of you,
but Dollar Tree is ready to take your money.
So there you have it.
