When trying to stay on budget, dollar stores are a great place for stocking up on travel-related items. The Dollar Tree sticks to the everything costs $1 motto, so feel free to load up on whatever you need without worrying about a price tag.
Food
Browse the food aisles for snacks to bring on your trip. Dollar stores sell a variety of snack-sized food, ranging from trail mix and gum to crackers and beef jerky. If you’re going on a road trip, opt for larger-sized snacks like pretzels, chips and even water and soft drinks.
Health and Beauty
You’ll find a wide variety of health and beauty products at the dollar store. Oftentimes they stock bigger brand name products in smaller sizes, perfect for travel. Buy any bath, hair, dental or cosmetic products you need and throw them out at the end of your trip to save room in your suitcase.
Miscellaneous
Get creative with other purchases. Buy socks to wear once on the plane then throw out. Check out the disposable plastic utensils to keep in the car. Emergency supplies like first-aid materials, batteries, tape and tools are also available. Purchase a few word search or crossword puzzle books to help pass the time.
