Listen. I want to tell you guys about the Dollar Tree. If you ever need to rebuild your life fast, you want a dollar tree. Everything in a dollar tree costs one dollar. No exceptions. Nothing has a price tag. Everything is one dollar. 

This is Dollar Tree not Dollar General. 

Dollar Tree looks like this: 

Their stuff is off-brand but decent quality.  

Here are some things you can buy at the dollar tree for one dollar: 

– any kind of makeup- foundation, eyeshadow, lipstick, lip gloss, mascara, etc

– socks

– Sports bras (sometimes) 

– combs, brushes, hairclips, scrunchies, hair ties, headbands

– clothes hangers, laundry bags, mothballs

– any kind of office supplies or school supplies. Staplers, pencils, posterboard, pencils, pens, etc. 

– party supplies including paper plates and balloons

– all kinds of toiletries- shampoo, conditioner, toothbrush, toothpaste, dental floss, washcloths, deodorant, razors, shaving cream, nailclippers, etc. Decent sizes, too. 

– ceramic/glass plates, bowls, cups

– reading glasses, sunglasses

– plastic buckets

– cleaning supplies, detergent, bleach, laundry syrup, fabric softener, dish soap, sponges. brooms 

– electronics, headphones, night lights, phone chargers, batteries, screen cleaners, phone cases

Basically? If you ever get kicked out of your house or find yourself with a couple bucks and nothing else, get thee to a dollar tree. 

All the dollar tree stores I have been in have some sort of medical aisle too. Its actually where I went first when my tooth broke for some off brand orajel (Works much faster and better than orajel imo, longer too if you put it on a cotton ball and keep it in the area) And sometimes even emergency temp tooth repair kits, which are at least $7 elsewhere.
Dollar tree is a miracle.

My mom has worked for Dollar Tree since I was 7 (I’m currently 20) and I’ve lived off of Dollar Tree products my entire life. Everything is a cheap off-brand version of the good stuff like the op said. They actually care about the stuff they put out and have saved my ass several times.

Need a headband? Dollar Tree.

Cousin’s birthday and can’t afford a toy? Dollar Tree.

Wine glass breaks before a party? Dollar Tree.

About to faint from heat exhaustion? DOLLAR TREE.

Everything is a dollar, it always has been a dollar, and it will always be a dollar. They have never marked up an item and never will.

I love Dollar Tree.

I’ve been asked many times what someone should look for when trying to find a good artist. The best way you can do this is to look at their portfolio, whether it’s in a book at their shop or online. If they don’t have good work in their portfolio, they’re probably not good artists.

The shop may be clean, the people there might be nice, and the design they draw up for you might be exactly what you want, but if your artist doesn’t stand up to the points listed above, then you’re going to get a bad tattoo.

It’s okay to walk into a shop, talk with an artist for a while, and decide you don’t want a tattoo from them. Even if the artist has a bad attitude about it or tries to convince you to just let them do it, remember this is going to be on your body for the rest of your life.

This is fucking fantastic thank you!!

So important. I had an apprentice tattoo me once without any supervision – wound up with a blurry tattoo, and a messed up tendon for a while after 😡
