Laundry baskets dollar general how to#
You asked how to convince your mom to stop buying poor-quality goods. I have relatives who love the dollar store, but I work for Wirecutter, where our experts on staff test thousands of products a year to ensure that we’re recommending items that are high quality and have great value. If you have the means, spending a few extra bucks on sturdier, longer-lasting items is often better in the long run, and it has the added benefit of reducing waste over time. While Dollar General, Dollar Tree, Family Dollar, 99 Cents Only, and the other stores that sell everything from toothpaste to instant macaroni for (about) a buck certainly help those on a budget or fixed income, critics say these purveyors of cheap goods are bad for the workers, the environment, and the local community. I once had my lovingly baked banana bread hit the floor due to someone else’s flimsy dollar-store cake carrier (apparently the handle and latches were just for show), so … never again. What common household items do you recommend she spends a bit more on, and how do I convince her to do that? But the stuff she brings home is poor quality and eventually ends up getting tossed in a landfill. My mom loves to shop at the dollar store, which she thinks is a great value. Email your biggest product-related problems to Wirecutter, Ask Wirecutter, an advice column written by Annemarie Conte, explores the best approaches to buying, using, and maintaining stuff.
