Five Below is the best store ever

Change my mind! Idk its like a girls paradise in there. I went today for some after Christmas sales. I spent a little too much...like $100 easily... on just silly things and snacks. And crafting materials and well just things I didn't need but looked awesome. Yes my first time shopping in one. We didn't get one until mid 2021. So fairly new.

But just spending $100 on silly things during a pandemic sounds risky.

I live on social security and don't have $100 to spend on silly things.

I need to buy new eyeglasses,
Get hearing aids.
Go to the dentist.

until my 8 yr old GD gets out of school. She usually goes right before or after, usually after my DIL picks her up. My son is in the Air Force, and is either deployed or gets home at erratic hours.

headsets for Iphones, but a lot of good stuff like cheap unisex exercise equipment and pool noodles I use for insulation.

And, yeah, I do use the dollar fingernail polish for marking things sealing stuff.
