Tyler Dollar Tree

January 13th, 2010

Tyler Dollar Tree is located on Hwy 64 right across from the Wal Mart shopping center. I love Dollar Tree because everything in there is a dollar. Yes that is what I said a dollar. So there have been many times when I only had about $5 – $10 dollars to my name and went in there and walked out feeling rich because I found a lot of the things I needed just for a buck. They have a variety of stuff anywhere from children’s toys, books, housewares, body care stuff, food and many other things.

The exciting part is that everything is just a dollar and of course the things you find in there are not fancy but practical. The quality is good enough that sometimes people don’t even know that you got it at the dollar store. At the beginning of a school year lots of people don’t have much money to spend on their children. You can go there and find the school supplies that your children needs to get their school year started right. Your children won’t have to feel left out because all the other kids have what they need.

Just the other day I went in there and bought mechanical pencils and erasers for school that I needed for myself. Another time I had a school project and needed some things for it that I did not have to be able to finish the project that I had for school. I walked in the Dollar Tree and walked out with the things that I needed and it only cost me around $5 dollars.

When you are broke you can’t beat that price. There are a lot of other dollar stores in Tyler, Texas. One is located close by where the post office is and another one on Broadway going towards the mall on the other side of the street. All of these stores have different things to offer. Some have better quality than others. I know that some dollar stores have a section that costs more for some of the items that they offer but for the most part everything it is just a dollar and only certain sections cost around $5 dollars.

The Dollar Store that is located by the post office is larger than the one on 64 and they have a better variety of stuff because it is larger than Dollar Tree located on 64. They have stuff for you to work on scrap booking if you are into that kind of stuff which I am. Also I know that most of the stuff you need to buy to have a nice scrap book costs way more than a dollar per item. The Dollar Store is a nice place for you to go get the things you need to start working on your scrap booking or if you have already started working on it and you need to put the finishing touches on it.

The Dollar Store probably has almost whatever you need and you don’t have to pay an arm and a leg for it. This particular Dollar Store also has nice children’s books, nice picture frames, beautiful greeting cards and all kinds of other neat stuff. The only things is that these are the items that cost a little more because they are better quality than some of the other stuff and this Christmas I even dropped in and made some last minute Christmas shopping. But it will be our little secret.

For real I loved what I bought there and you could not tell it was from the Dollar Store. Besides I have heard it said that its the thought that counts. Right? So if you are on a tight budget like me, then just drop in and let loose because it won’t matter anyways because it’s all just a dollar!

Ross Clothing Store in Tyler

October 14th, 2009

If you are walking into an over crowded store with woman digging elbow deep into material and throwing clothes across the room and onto the floor, most likely you just walked into Tyler’s Ross store.

Row after row of over crowded racks of clothes. I do a lot of shopping at Ross. I love to find a cute outfit for a great price. It does get really frustrating stepping over half the clothes in the store and shirts getting stuck in the wheels of the shopping cart. They have cute clothes woman of all sizes, misses to juniors. Woman’s clothes over runs the store and pushes the men’s section into a small corner. You might have to dig for the perfect outfit that you are looking for, but the price will make it completely worth it. Find the cutest prom dress for $40 or a cute summer dress for $10. But make sure that there are no holes and stains, or a shoe print. Even find cute shoes but they are never on the right shelf (if on a shelf) or even with the matching shoe.

I can rarely find a cute outfit in the kids section that does not have a rip or stain. The toys’ boxes are always taped back together and the shoes are never in the right sizes. They have all different toys, blankets and all other baby necessities. If you find something that is cute in good shape you are going to find it with a great price.

The men’s selection is pushed into the small front corner of the store and most of the clothes are odd or odd sizes. It is really hard to find a nice outfit there for men. But every once in awhile you might find a decent shirt, or jeans, or even a pair of unmentionables.

Ross has all different things to clothe your house. Find a great gift for a friend. Find great dishes sets or fun picture frames. Also you can find fun candles and beautiful candle holders. Flavor up your living room by decorating your plain couch with fancy pillows and cushions. The pillow aisle is pretty much impossible to stroll the cart down because there are usually more pillows on the floor than there are pillows on the shelf. Find a cute blanket to bring your furniture and house together.

Finish off the perfect outfit with a fun scarf, or hand bag. Keep coming back to Ross to see what is new and on sale. If it is cold out find a cute hat and gloves, and if it’s a sunny summer day find a great pair of sunglasses. So find a great deal and have fun digging. Ross in Tyler Texas really is the best place to “dress for less”.
