    Default Early frugal Christmas shopping

    Well, I had a few minutes to kill before I went to talk to my manager today, and I stopped at Dollar Tree. They had some WONDERFUL stuff there that would make great Christmas gift baskets!

    We were just talking about salt and sugar scrubs, and they had both, in different scents. I got two salt scrubs, one citrus and one pink freesia; and two sugar scrubs one lavender vanilla (for me) and one Almond. I figure they'll make cute little gifts for people at work, or for my sister. Last year I spent $4 on her gift and she loved it!

    They had some other stuff in pretty bottles that I didn't have time to look at. It was like body scrub, lotion, and bath gel all the same scent. I like to get stuff like that to put in little baskets with a scrubby, or maybe one of those $1 foot tools I found!

    I did see some foot cream. That would be a really cute cheap gift with one of the pedicure tools. I need to go back!
