1. Clorox Triple Action Ultra Dishwasher Detergent Pacs
I usually buy my dishwasher pods on Amazon, but then I discovered that they're actually 23% cheaper at Dollar General. A 60-count package of Clorox Triple Action Ultra Dishwasher Detergent Pacs will cost you $19.99 on Amazon, while Dollar General sells a 30-count box for $7.65.
In other words, you can buy two 30-count boxes for $15.30 at Dollar General. That breaks down to $0.25 per pod, while Amazon is $0.33 per pod. I do around 10 loads of laundry a week, so over the course of a year, I'll save $39 by purchasing my detergent pacs at Dollar General.
2. Fabuloso Multi-Purpose Cleaner – Watermelon Scent
This cleaner went totally viral on TikTok — and with good reason: It smells amazing! But you'll get way more bang for your buck when you buy the watermelon Fabuloso at Dollar General. See, at Walmart, you'll pay $3.47 for a 33.8-ounce bottle. But at Dollar General, you'll get 56 ounces for $4.50. That works out to $0.08 per ounce at Dollar General, and $0.10 per ounce at Walmart, making this summery Fabuloso scent 20% cheaper at Dollar General.
3. Easy-Off Heavy Duty Oven Cleaner
Another viral #CleanTok product is Easy-Off Heavy Duty Oven Cleaner. It doesn't just work wonders inside your oven; people love using it on pans, too. But if you're gonna try buying this viral product, Dollar Tree is your top choice. That's because you'll pay $5.50 for a 14.2-ounce can there, vs. Walgreens, where a can costs $7.99 — 31% more.
4. Clorox Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Bleach
Clorox Toilet Bowl Cleaner is a staple in my household, so I always buy the two pack. At Target, you'll pay $5.99, or $0.12 per ounce, but Dollar General sells the two pack for $5.50, or $0.11 per ounce, which is 8% cheaper. It may not sound like a lot, but every penny counts these days, am I right?
5. Glad ForceFlex Tall Kitchen Drawstring Pink Trash Bags
When I saw that Glad started making pink trash bags, I had to find them. But you should definitely be buying these pink trash bags at Dollar General, where a 20-count box costs $5.95, or about $0.30 per bag. Compare that to Target, which sells a 45-count box for $14.19. That breaks down to $0.32 per bag. Bonus? These pink bags don't just look great, they also smell great because they're scented with cherry blossom.
6. Fabuloso Multi-Purpose Cleaner – Lavender Scent
Don't worry if you can't find the watermelon-scented Fabuloso at Dollar General because you'll actually save even more on their lavender scent. On Amazon, a 128-ounce bottle will cost you $10.98, but at Dollar Tree, you can get the same bottle just $8.00. That's a 27% savings.
7. Snuggle Laundry Care Items
I've got two toddlers and two senior dogs and my spring cleaning to-do list includes a lot of laundry. From my couch cushion covers to dog blankets, I'm throwing everything in the washer for a spring refresh.
Now through May 5, Dollar General has a digital coupon that drops select Snuggle laundry care to just $2.50 each. This cuts the price of the Snuggle 80-ct. Dryer Sheets by 44% — working out to just $0.03 per load.
