Coin purses

If you need a small coin purse to carry your change, emergency Band-Aids, or any other small items, you can easily shop for only one dollar. A search for women’s purses and pouches on Amazon is going to turn up a fun selection of small coin purses, for funny gifts and birthday party favors.

You can use the “sort” menu in the upper right of the page, and arrange the results from the lowest to the highest price. Just remember that shipping adds might add a couple of bucks. This is a neat reminder of the purse we used to see at our grandma’s!

Baby paraphernalia

If you’re expecting a new baby in your life, you definitely want to spend more than $1 on your main baby shower gift. You can easily add some inexpensive extras, so you can help the parents get off to a pampered start.

Dollar store offerings are very diverse but look for goodies such as rattles, gel teething toys, bibs, and even booties for only one dollar. After all, not every dollar store is going to offer things at this price, but some might.

Magazines

So many online publications are trying to lure their readers, and print magazines are willing to make some cuts on amazing deals.

Custom bookmarks

If you’re looking for a personalized and meaningful gift, you can put your favorite photo or your child’s artwork on a custom bookmark that you can get from NextDayFlyers. If you can’t simply buy one, but you’re willing to splurge on the minimum order of 25 for only $13.95, these coated, and colorful, 2-inch-by-6-inch bookmarks will cost as little as $0.56 each, shipping included.

First-day covers

Well, a “first-day cover” is nothing but a collectible from the U.S. Postal Service. These covers feature a commemorative postage stamp that has been canceled on the first day that stamp was issued.

If you or anyone else would appreciate the sentiment that’s been featured on that stamp, a first-day cover makes a historic keepsake or even frame-worthy work of art. The USPS sells several of these for only $0.99.

Wrapping ribbon

Simply go and check your local dollar store for rolls of wrapping ribbon. Colorful ribbons can put the finishing touch on a wrapped present, and they can simply hang out in your craft bin, until you need to decorate a picture frame, and even jazz up a school project or create a proper ponytail accessory.
