Things You Should Avoid At The Dollar Store

1. Deodorant

Even though you may initially believe you would get a better deal on branded deodorants at the Dollar Store, you could probably find a larger size at your local pharmacy for much cheaper. The more obscure brands of deodorant could easily contain harmful chemicals that could irritate sensitive areas like armpits. They also will not last very long, and for those with active lifestyles, a quality roll-on or spray is essential for a full day’s worth of protection.

2. Toys

Unless you want your child’s excitement to end abruptly, you should avoid buying toys at the Dollar Store. Because of the inferior quality, the toys here are just not worth it, especially for toddlers that may be able to swallow small parts of broken toys. Cheap toys are not much fun to play with, and given that kids are experts on toy quality and function, they might end up throwing away a kind gesture without much thought.
