My First Giveaway- My Love of the $1.00 Section at Target ($20 GC)

10:25 AM Posted by Deanna - Mommygaga

So I am professing my love for Target. I love the whole store, but more specifically, I am coerced by that little white doggie, Spot, that appears at the entrance of each store (I think he calls my name). He is the keeper of the infamous $1 section! I love it so much that I decided to hold my first giveaway in connection with Target and the beloved Spot.


As a SAHM, I am always on the look out for a good bargain. I have been able to find so many great items in the "See Spot Save" section. If you have not seen it, you must not be a Target shopper! It is stocked with all sorts of things, from books, socks, stationary, toys, bags, snacks, stickers, batteries, I am sure I could go on, but I would probably bore the heck out of you! The selection varies, especially seasonally (you can find great seasonal gifts and knick knacks without breaking the bank).


A couple of MJ's favorite books from Target's "See Spot Save" section:




Here are some great things I came across on my most recent visit:

- Smiley Face Stickers: My son is currently potty training, so we use them on his potty chart. The pack came with 12 sheets of stickers, 20 on each sheet! ($1)

- Sesame Street Toddler Books: These are probably my favorite of all. They had 4 different learning books featuring Sesame Street characters. We chose the Colors book with Elmo and Counting with Cookie. ($1 each)

- Ribbon: There are tons of mix and match spools of ribbon that they always have. Most of them come in packs of 6. I recently got the "It's a Girl" set of 6 for a friends upcoming babyshower. ($1)

I feel like a kid in a candy store when I set foot in the store. So the next time you are in Target and you see the $1 section, think of me!

    *Ahem* I am also an avid fan of the $1 bin.. I was able to create my own kid birthday bucket from this section. I had 2 relatives who were having a joint birthday party and I was perplexed as to what I was going to get them. I ventured into the $1 section and saw beach buckets and got an idea. I used the beach buckets that were there and found all sorts of toys, books, stickers and many assortments that I was able to throw in the buckets all for under $10.

    I always have to stop at this part of the store. Even if I was just there the week before. The best thing I've found there was some blank note cards that were fairly plain but I jazzed them up with a little paper and ribbon and sent them as Christmas cards. And I didn't spend more than $2 for 8 cards! Thanks for the lovely giveaway.

  3. SEASON said...

    I boughtmy son some shoes from the $1 bin they were sandals and he loved them intell he grew out of them. If i win i would use the money with th money his dad gives me to get him a push buggy sine were going tobe moving to a house i want to be able to push him in something he would love to be in.

  4. Ashlie said...

    I love the $1 bin especially around the holiday time. My son's favortie holiday is Halloween so we always have to have lots of things around the house and this year he wants to have his first Halloween party (6 years old) so we will be visiting the $1 bin!!

  5. Little Ladybugs said...

    I love LOVE the $1.00 spot. I get all my stocking stuffers at Christmas time. I also grabbed your button and added to my page:)
    My kids also love to shop there since they can get so much for their small $5.00 they get to spend sometimes...LOL I would prob just split up the gift card for my kids let them have a $1.00 spot shopping spree!!

  6. The Royal Family said...

    I often see that section and skip it to save myself a lots of money. I love that section I love the socks they usually have.

  7. Pixie said...

    I love the $1 wrapping supplies, especially the gift bags...makes my life wayyyyy easier!

  8. Anonymous said...

    I love that section and I come close to going broke everytime I shop there. The best thing I got fro there would probably be the little spring gardening tools kit and growing seeds. Had a blast with the kids!

  9. silverhartgirl said...

    I found great animal flash cards for my toddler at the dollar spot. They have so many great things.

  10. Ashley said...

    I think the best thing i bought off the $1 rack was this toddler tray for my daughter. If i win the $20 gift card I would probably spoil myself with some scrapbook supplies. Usually i always end up spending anything extra on my daughter. & although i PLAN to spoil myself... i know it'll end up going to her! & I LOVE the dollar rack so i'll find a few things off there for sure!

    I absolutely love the $1 bins at target. My greatest find was all of my daughter's Christmas presents. She is only 1 years old right now and last Christmas money was really tight. We got her some light up toys, socks, hair bands, sunglasses, sidewalk chalk, and just a bunch of goodies. The giftcard would be a blessing if chosen as her Christmas this year will also come from the dollar bin at target.

  13. Ally in WA said...

    Hair bows for my daughter was the best find at Target's dollar section. Got some really pretty ones in fact better that was sold at the dollar store next door to my Target. I love Target! Also the end of aisle clearance is awesome.

  33. Jen said...

    I am a $1 girl. I love cheap stuff. The last thing I bought was popcorn cups in the target dollar aisle. But the best deal was after school clearance a few years ago when I lucked up on .15 and .25 cents for everything for the next school year like pencils, notebooks, and book covers. I love target's clearance!

  37. Suzyzee said...

    I love the dollar bins!!! My bestest of all finds were just this past weekend!! They had a 75% off area and I got some really cute "cool packs" that have puppies and tigers on them. Last month during the 50% off sale I found dishes, cups, a cool lunch bag for my dh. I also got my son Coke and Sprite pencils for school.

  38. Dolphin Girl said...

    I love the dollar bin. I was there Friday night and it was 50% off! I love when I get lucky. I love all the dollar socks. So do my kids!

  39. Cocoa Lover said...

    I teach piano and love the dollar section to stock my practice prize bucket. I can find something for everyone.

  40. Jessica said...

    The best deal I've found was a tote bag on sale for 75% off of 2.50. I bought it, painted an apple on it, and filled it with back to school goodies (some from the dollar spot) and gave it to my son's first grade teacher. I spent about $10 total and it was a great personal gift.

  41. Auntie Reene said...

    I love all the Hello Kitty items they carry. I have loved Hello Kitty since I was a child, and now my daughter loves it too...and the items I find in the Target dollar area are so much more affordable than the few other places that you can find their products.

    Thank you for the giveaway!

  49. dctm said...

    I love the $1 spot so much. I had looked everywhere for my son a set of numbers and ABC's - the magnet ones to be placed on the refrig.. and there they were in the $1 section. To be honest, I would probably buy items for my kids with the card.

    My favorite items I got from the See Spot Save section are the ice buckets pictured here: http://lomac27.blogspot.com/2009/07/tuesday-shopping.html

    I snagged them for $1 each, and I used one of them as a gift "basket" and I'm using the rest of them as storage.

    I love the $1 section of Target! My favorite thing I found there was wooden dinosaur puzzles (the three dimensional kind that look like dino skeletons). Found those just as my children were getting enthralled with dinosaurs. I've also found kids size garden tools and gloves (nice quality too). And I always find fun stickers there.

    The $1 at target is great, but I love shopping the clearance racks at target.
    as if the clothes aren't already at great prices in regular retail, the clearance racks are like treasure boxes full of amazing pieces! I've found so many great deals there, most of which are under $10! my favorite find is a great blazer for only 9.99! i love target with a passion.

    One of the best deals I have gotten from the $1 spot was a bunch of lotions and body creams for $1 each, they were not just the tiny bottles either, they were great sizes! I gave them away in a secret santa game!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

    We found some adorable little books about sports with squeaky balls on the cover. My 4 year old loves them.

    I would like the buy the Hello Kitty Pens from the $1 bins. They don't have them all the time. The pens are out a few times a year and they are out now.

    The best deal I ever found from the $1 section were socks! I am a sock geek, I love them. Whenever I go there, I always look for new socks. And, you can bet your bottom dollar, if I won this gift card, I'd be heading straight for the $1 section in the hope that there will be socks... Or at least some really great school supplies!

    The dollar section must be new since the last time I was at Target, but I would hope there's some cute stationary or notebooks there!

    I love the $1 bin. I got a whole set of nice metal and wood children's gardening tools from there. My kid loves them!

    I don't shop the $1 section so often, it's the Clearance toddler clothes I'm always after. But Recently I got Avery some Winter Socks (2 pk) for $1!! Not a bad deal if you ask me. $.50 for a pair of BRAND NEW SOCKS. It's garage sale prices there!!
    I also bought our cups there 2 years ago. Plastic cups, but 4 packs were $1!!! I bought 12 cups!

    OMG, i can't even tell you how many great deals we've found in that section!!! I would say the best though would be the wooden trains I got about a year ago. The kids still play with them constantly :-)

    If I won, I would pick up more toys for the kids to stash in my purse for emergencies!

    Thanks for the fantastic giveaway!!!
