Five Things To Buy At Five Below
SUBSCRIBE: www.whattedsays.com
My oldest daughter absolutely loves Five Below. This is the
store where essentially everything is five dollars or less and is really geared
for that tweener group as a base consumer. Often, when we bring our kids to a
flea market, dollar store, or places like Five Below, you still have teach them
about how to be a smart shopper and find the really good deals. Here are five
of my favorite smart money move purchases to make if you go to Five Below.
Candy
Yes, I said candy. You are going to need to buy candy
somewhere, and there are plenty of $1 per box candy deals available at Five
Below. More of the drugstore chains, Wal Mart, and other stores are recognizing
that people have home movie theaters and that has really driven down the price
of a box of candy. Never, never pay full price for Milk Duds again.
Case Protectors
These are amongst the best deals at Five Below. Whether you
are looking for a case for your phone or for your tablet, there is a huge
selection of cases for $5 and under. Don't get sucked into buying one at the
mall or department store where you can end up spending $10 to $30 dollars for
something you can get for $5 or less.
Flip Flops/Water Shoes
Even at the main department stores, flip flops or kids aqua
shoes can run around $9.99. You can get 2 for $5 right now on the Flip Flops
and you can also get those water shoes for $5. This could be a great
opportunity to pick these up for a cheap price while prices are often at their
highest as we head into the summer.
Sports Balls
When we go to the major sporting goods stores, you can count
on most of the balls for soccer or football to be at least $10 no matter what
the size of the sports balls. For those of you with kids 6 to 12 years old, you
might end up buying a smaller version of the sports ball for a higher price,
and odds are your kids are going to give the ball a good beating during the
summer. At Five Below, you could pick up one of these for less than $5.
Greeting Cards
Since when did a greeting card cost $6 or $7? Since Papyrus
opened up, that's when. Greeting cards are often impulse purchases for most of
us and can really put a dent in what we spend during birthdays and
holidays. Many of the greeting cards at
Five Below can be bought for a $1 or $2, so it could be a smart move to stock
up on these and keep them handy when you need them at home.
