I don't claim to be a coupon queen (although I'm thinking of trying my hand at it), but I do appreciate a good deal. That's why I buy some of our household products at Dollar Tree. Now you have to watch dollar stores because sometimes you can actually get things cheaper elsewhere, but you can get good deals on certain products. I've found toiletries, cleaning products, and medicine to be the best bargains. The above picture is what I buy on a regular basis for just a dollar a piece without having to clip coupons or watch ads. Here's a list of what's pictured:
6 oz toothpaste
64 oz laundry detergent (I plan on making my own once I run out)
25 oz dish washing liquid
26 oz dish washing detergent
40 count ibuprofen
10 count each day and night cold medicines
1 oz hydrocortisone creme
36 count allergy medicine
I stock up on these when I go so I only have to buy them every few months or so. Does anyone else shop at the dollar store? What've you found to be a good deal?

I buy a lot of my storage containers for my pantry at the dollar store. Ours sometimes has name brand bread as well. It's also one of my favorite places to buy my stocking stuffers at Christmas!
