A Virtual Trip To The Dollar Store

There’s nothing quite like a trip to the dollar store for cruise shopping.

In this episode we’re taking a virtual trip to the dollar store. Shopping has always been a great way for us to get amped up for a cruise, but we always have to be smart about spending. Dollar stores can be a good option for this. Since we can’t get out now, we thought a virtual trip via podcast might be fun.

We’ve put together a companion article about a trip to the dollar store, and 10 awesome dollar store finds for a cruise, but here is a quick look at that list:

1. 1. 1. Travel sized first aid kit
      2. Strong magnets
      3. Toiletries and sunscreen
      4. Cabin decorations
      5. Cabin organization stuff
      6. Tealights and nightlights
      7. Clips of all kinds
      8. Travel sized popup hamper
      9. Hand sanitizer 
      10. Shower cap
