Holiday Shopping-Bargain Style

So I’m at it again…another Target dollar section post! This one is holiday themed and not all the items here are for organizing.  Some are awesome, useful stocking stuffers.  I put the price of the item right on the photo for you.  Please keep in mind these are the prices at MY Target and they may vary.  I’ve also included a photo with some awesome organizing gear for your decorations.  I know putting your decorations away isn’t on your mind right now, but I need to mention that they are often out of stock after the holiday passes.

Okay so let me know what your favorite dollar store or dollar section find is!  I want to know how stretch your holiday budget!

Mini Pails-These lille metal pails are great for holding candy, creating a mini centerpiece or even using it with some tissue paper as wrapping!  I love the white ones with snowflakes. I’m going to put some pine in them from the backyard and make a mini centerpiece!

I also loved these little felt buckets.  I bought a few to use as gift wrap.  When I just a small gift, like bracelets or earrings, I love to make it a little more special with an amazing and reusable package.  These are adorable for kids, school parties and secret Santa events too.

Holiday Themed Notepads-Awesome as stockings stuffers or to keep track of holiday meals, to do list and gifting lists!

Jingle Bells-Make a centerpiece, adorn packages or decorate a wreath.  These are super cute and just $3.

Page Flags-A great stocking filler, but I bought them to make days in my planner without using up valuable sticky notes.

Mug-They had a whole bunch of mugs…if your cabinet is chuck full already, skip this. However, if you could use another, it’s a stocking suffer you can actually use.  I loved this one with Joy on it of course 🙂

Chalkboard labels-These are great for decorating plain bins, packages or even just hanging off the kitchen cabinets.  $3 for all three.  Gotta love that!

Bandaids-Another useful stocking stuffer and Rudolph for a dollar?  Love it!

Another mini pail-They had a LOT of designs including Snoopy, Rudolph and seasonal designs.

The image below speaks for itself but a few things to keep in mind:

Organizers like these not only organize your items, they protect them.  When you pack things away with care, you’re less likely to have broken bulbs next year.

These are often not available AFTER the holidays so get them while you can.

The seasonal color will help you quickly see what’s holiday themed in your attic, basement or storage room.

I found these at Target and they were much less expensive than other options I’ve seen.
