The Dollar Store
Author: Veronica Hay

On the weekend, a friend and I went shopping at all of our
favorite places, and after visiting all of those, we
decided to check out some of the Dollar Stores that have
appeared on the planet, in the last several years.

There are now several variations of these stores available
with different names, however, they all have one thing in
common. At the Dollar Stores, almost all of the items are
priced at $1.00, or two or three items for only one dollar.
As we walked around the store, I couldn't help but notice
how happy the customers looked, particularly three, sweet
looking, elderly ladies, as they picked out what they
exclaimed to be, enchanting items and funny little gifts.
The room was full of smiling faces and giggles pervading an
atmosphere of absolute Joy.

I purchased several beautiful shipping boxes, some festive
bags, gift tags, ribbons and wrapping paper, a lovely set
of Christmas stove top, plate covers, a Santa oven mitt, a
dog and cat tooth brush for my brother, an Xmas CD, some
tin canisters and portable scissors, some candles, two
precious dog squeak and chew toys, gold jumbo paper clips,
seasonal stickers, some personalized cards, and a turkey
baking dish.

There was one item, however, that I just had to take home,
strictly for its JOY value. It is a pen and holder, but not
any ordinary pen and holder.  It looks like a flamingo with
big, white, round, bulging eyes and large, yellow beak, set
into its fuzzy, emerald head. It's bright green, fluffy
feathers, flutter with the slightest movement in the room.
The added bonus is that you can actually write with it. I
placed it on my desk, next to my computer, and it always
makes me smile when I look at it.

SILLY?  Absolutely!  But sometimes silly is just what we
need.

Going to the Dollar Store is fun!  It makes you feel RICH.
My shopping cart was overflowing with stuff. I left with
four bags full and the total bill was only $30.00.  I felt
pleased to have received a whole lot of value for my money.

So, this Christmas season, or any other time of the year
for that matter, if you want to make your shopping
experience less stressful and more light and playful, while
increasing your vibration around abundance, I suggest you
visit the Dollar Store nearest you.

Enjoy!
