Not to rain on anyone’s parade- these used to be $2.00 and there were really packed with a lot of stuff. Last year one box was full of “Easter” grass. Hardly worth $4.00. I used to buy them and donate them to a charity because there were all kind of arts and crafts kits and supplies. Now it is mostly the seasonal decor and knick knacks.

Thank you for posting! I might have to skip this one though. I got a box after Valentine’s day and it was 30 boxes of kids Valentine’s. I have children, but they cannot bring Valentine’s to school. Anyone have any ideas of what or where I could give the Valentine’s to? Thanks!

The Boys and Girls Club? Another school district? If they have candy, tattoos, stickers etc. you can use them for birthday goodie bags or filling a piñata.

I do the same. If there are tattoos, erasers, etc. I put them in the Easter eggs. You can also donate these to a thrift store and they usually rotate the merchandise seasonally. it is SO much better to pay 50 cents – $1 at the thrift store for Valentine’s. We got Christmas wrap and brand new ornaments, etc. for a few dollars. Try donating them. Some of the charities in our neighborhood send flyers and on a given day pick up curbside. We also have sister school drives and the Valentines can be used for arts & crafts projects. Just a few ideas….

I bought a couple $4 boxes after Christmas. I got tons of great stuff.
Grab the heavier boxes or bags. I got 30 star power outdoor lights ($39 each). I’m going to light up the neighborhood next Xmas. Lol!!

I got four bags of two canisters Christmas Ornaments in the $4 bags in January. I was able to flip two for $4 each, sold three at $2 each and will donate the remaining ones. Didn’t quite work out for me.

The bags used to be awesome with like 20 items for $2. Now you get $80 face price leftover stuff that ultimately only sold at 50% off, so $40 worth of merchandise that nobody wanted anyway.

I’ll have to stop in mine and grab one if they have them. I’ve had great luck with them in the past. Cute decor I actually use 🙂
