christmas shopping

My hubby and I cant afford expensive stuff for christmas...I was just wondering...would it be bad of me to shop for some of my daughters presents at the dollar store?? I hate having to shop there for that stuff, but they have a lot of nice marked down brand name toys now...So ive found some cute stuff...Just wondering what your opinions are. Thanks

PS- Its her very first christmas...so thats why it bothers me...

I don't see an issue. The dollar store has some pretty nifty things sometimes. You gotta do what you gotta do.

I found this for her today, its a 4 foot long stuffed caterpillar, similar to this one, only a LOT bigger and prettier...It is awesome, LOL, its right up her alley.

nope not at all, we got the kids stuff from walmart/target and dollar store last year. They have some cool stuff at the .99 cent store. Most toys get broken or played with for a week anyway. I got tons of stocking stuff and coloring books and crayons at the dollar store

You do what you can. There is nothing wrong with buying some stuff at the dollar store because honestly the kid will be more thrilled with the wrapping paper than the present. LOL! It's alright, it really is the thought that counts. They have some cool shit in there sometimes too.

Yeah, ive found Littlest pet shop toys, and these dolls that have been out of make for months, and the last one i saw was 45 dollars, but the dollar store has about 20 of them for only 18 bucks...THATS a great deal...so i have to go get one.

I got one like what you are talking about at the truck stop I used to work at. My kids fucking LOVED that thing. They played with it so much they finally tore it beyond repair. LMFAO.

Yeah, Ive found giant 4 foot tall stuffed horses and dogs and everything in there...this sort of stuff would be 50 dollars in a reg store like walmart,but its only 15 at this place...so its good.

You have to do what you have to do I see nothing wrong with that..I'm dreading christmas we are on a tight budget

HAHHAAA Its HUGE isnt it?!?! Its great quality for only a few dollars....That sort of stuff is way overpriced anyways, so im glad to have found a bargain.

I think im going to buy two of it to keep one put away...

hey, a 53inch long stuffed animal is pretty good for 11 bucks, LOL.

we are too...our income is so low most single people couldnt even live off it for a week...its that bad...so we have to stretch more than most people ever have nightmares about, LOL.

But its alright, i make her clothes and hats and stuffed animals, on my own, and she loves them, So i try  

That is all we can do as parents, just try our best

FUCK YOU.

I paid $25 for it. That's bullshit right there! LOL! Yeah, $11 is a steal. I might go see if our dollar store has them. You are talking about Dollar General right? My kids loved that thing and were so upset when I threw it out!
