Dollar Tree - To You, From Me!


I have developed a bit of an addiction to Dollar Tree. I can quickly think of six locations within driving distance, which restaurants are near each one (hey, if you're going out anyway...) and then quickly rank them from best to worst - all in the space of a few seconds. I know I'm not alone here. The thing about the Tree though, is when you see something good, you have to pounce on it. There's no time to think it over and then come back to pick it up a few days later because the good stuff is gone, baby gone, in no time flat.

I love to post quick pictures of my DT finds on my FB fan page, because most of the time I'm using things for a simple idea that doesn't warrant a whole blog post or I just want to give you the heads up to run like the wind & go there first chance you get. However, even if you go with the quickness, you still might not be able to find some things. That makes me sad. I'm sure it makes you sad too and the last thing I want is a bunch of sad blog buddies. So, in the spirit of sharing the wealth, I present the...

Win the awesomeness pictured below which includes a primary lined composition book, 3 file folder games, a set of 20 wipe-off clocks, a package of jewelry links (perfect for a compliment chain!), a pack of fun erasers, a pack of color word magnets, 2 packs of sight word magnets, a set of compound word magnets, 2 sets of long and short vowel magnets, a package of 24 skeleton worksheets and a package of 24 label the states worksheets!

I'm also including a set of six handmade owl themed notecards made by yours truly - 
just because it it's fall & all.


There are two ways to enter:
Be or become a follower of my blog for one entry

Leave a separate comment for each entry on this post.
I'll choose a winner using Random.org Friday 9/30/2011 at midnight EST and I'll announce the winner on Saturday morning.

Good luck friends!
