We purchased some treat bags as well as a large wood plaque that is in the shape of a big Christmas ornament. Did you know that you can purchase items from Dollar Tree and have them shipped to your local store? It is addictive.
- Hobby Lobby. Hobby Lobby puts their holiday items on sale as soon as they come out on the floor. You can find everything you need for your home at Hobby Lobby. Right now, Hobby Lobby has Christmas at 50% off.
