Favorite low-cost indulgence?

I went to Office Depot with my kids today and I was super excited that the school supplies are already out. (I know, school just got out.) But I love buying notebooks of all kinds! So I was wondering what other smallish things you ladies can't pass up a chance to buy.

These are all great answers! Notebooks, school supplies and books are definitely all on my list of must-haves!

The dollar store.. when my babies were young (they're now 10 & 15), I would take them and allow them to buy 5 things and this would excite them so much! I have a fond memory of my little one cheesing while holding up his hand wide open and saying "I can get 5 things mommy?"

I LOVE a good journal or notebook. I hit up HomeGoods the other day and bought five because they were such a good deal and perfect for summer writing ideas.

I'm obsessed with ginger chews. Ginger cures everything, IMO.

This is a tough one. I also love buying cards as well. Usually really funny ones that I know someone I give it to will appreciate. For example, my latest find was a card with 2 avocados on it, one was on a piece of toast and it says " I see you got smashed again". I love tacky/funny things like this that will make someone else get a good laugh.

I love finding a good card that fits someone’s personality... no matter what the occasion.

A good felt-tip pen. There's something assuring about the way the words scroll across the page when you find just the right writing utensil.
