When my kids were younger, they used to LOVE stores like Dollar Tree where everything costs $1.00. Usually they received a dollar for each year on their birthdays--they loved to shop at places like this--7 items, 8 items, 9 items, 10 items--through the years they really enjoyed buying the number of items for each new age. That doesn't work so well anymore! Now it would be 13 and 15 items--my daughter sometimes can find a few things, but not much. My son doesn't like these kind of places anymore. Still, I do love to get stocking stuffers and things like that at Dollar Tree. I know they still eat some snacks and candy, so I can't go wrong with that. It seems easier to find things for girls--soaps, hair accessories, calendars and journals. For boys, I guess there are key rings, flash lights, and other small things to carry in their pockets. I may go by there before Christmas and look for some things to fill the empty spaces under the tree--cheap "filler" things, but nothing expensive. Just think, $20 buys 20 items!! That can fill up lots of space!! :)
