If you go into a dollar store with an ultra-specific shopping list in mind, you probably won’t conquer it. But if you go into a dollar store “just because,” holy cow, you will be so surprised what you may find! When I’m in gung-ho dollar store mode, I always hit up Jack’s 99 Cents Store on 31st and 6th. When I’m in a crafty mood, I go to Dollar Tree on Long Island. And now I have another favorite to add to the list. To be honest, I don’t know the name of it. I do know that it’s on 14th and 5th. And I also know that it’s where I got the amazing navajo mini backpack pictured above.
$1.99, folks. That’s what I paid for this little guy. Is the quality of material good? No. Is the construction flawed? Absolutely. Is it awesome? Yes, ma’am. If I can spend $6 on a beer that I down in 15 minutes, I’m pretty okay with spending $2 on a backpack that will last a few months. I’m a little in love with it. I just hope my other little guy doesn’t get jealous.
And just in case you were wondering..
