Oven Mitts
This one might be a bit tempting. After all, they’re cheap, and they look just the same as the more expensive versions. The difference is in how they’re made and the padding. You don’t want to mess around with something that’s designed to protect you.
Do yourself…and your hands a favor and buy the more expensive versions. You’ll be happy you did.

I love Dollar Tree Stores but they need to change the name because nothing is a dollar in there anymore. Their prices start at $1.25 and go up. You really need to watch which isle you are on and watch the products because people are always putting the wrong products on the wrong isle and when you get up to the register you find out the real price of some items.
You are so right about the plastic cooking utensils; they are marked Betty Crocker but they will melt if they get to hot and who know what the right temperature is for them. I learned the hard way about them melting and no need taking it back to the store, cause who keeps receipts from there and I bought these items when everything was a dollar.
Anyways I still like going in there and prawling around!
I can’t but go and visit dollars store to buy things so I love to buy my need there.⁹
I read all of your picks on what not to buy and your so,so right. I know from experience. Thats what these stores have on their shelves and most people know that. However, its still a fun store to go through regardless. There is always a cheap thing to buy that you can’t do without. lol
