She went for seeds and some tools but was shocked to see unexpected stock.
The gardener (@tinygardenchef) showed off her gardening haul in a TikTok video.
“Look at what I got from Dollar Tree for under $25,” she said.
“When I walked in, I found pallets of potting soil, which was a complete surprise to me.”
Although the bags were smaller than the ones she’d found at other stores, she picked up multiple of the eight-pound bags with no issue.
“I also found these biodegradable seed starting pots,” she said.
“I thought those were cool since you can just pop those straight into your soil.”
An entire section of fruits and veggie seeds also took her by surprise.
At checkout, she walked out with more than she had expected.
“In total, 48 pounds of potting soil, 40 biodegradable seed starter pots, six different types of seeds, as well as some tools, sheers, and other things that I needed,” she said.
“Last I got some decorative plant ties. The grand total for all of this, including some snacks, was $24.80.”
She pulled out a long receipt to show off her bargain deals.
People agreed that Dollar Tree was the spot when it came to bargain gardening.
“I buy their soil and seeds every spring and never had any issues! Happy planting!” said one fan.
“Me and my daughter bought the 3-for-a-dollar pots, seeds, potting soil, paid less than $8 and now we have our own herb garden growing on our windowsill,” said another.
