Last week, Carol at Raised in Cotton showed us some gorgeous glasses and stemware she bought at a dollar store; and asked if we had any favorite buys from a dollar store that we've used in our homes. I have one to show today.
I was running through Dollar General the other day because since I broke my foot, big stores are out of the question because of all the walking....before I even get INTO the store my foot hurts, so...I needed flour and stopped in at Dollar General.
I walked by this plate, and of course the colors, the gingham border and the rooster caught my eye. It was $1.50 and it now lives above my fridge. I kinda like him. And when I don't anymore? No big deal, he can hold a cake I can give away or cookies for a sick friend! How fun!

I love finds like that! He goes perfectly =)
Great find Joni! I love the Dollar Store too, and I'm really enjoying anything "chicken" these days... since getting my 7 baby chicks. (: Later I'm hoping to find a Banty Rooster... love that they're small and have beautiful feathers like the one on your plate... to go with my hens. xxx Vicki
I love it..it would fit right into my kitchen! ;D
Oh I love roosters too...they are all over my kitchen although I scaled back quite a bit :) Great finds, I haven't been to the Dollar store for quite some time.

Hi Joni!
What a steal! I love dollar stores too! we have one right around the corner and I pop in now and then to see what goodies I can bring home :) If I saw that Rooster plate, he'd be exactly where you put yours right now! :)
Hope the winter is finding you healthy and happy! Hugs, Cynthia
Good deal! The dollar store has some really cute stuff and different than you might find in othr discount stores and usually at reasonable prices.
Thanks for your sweet comments -- I'll definitely have to check out the books! I LOVE what you did with the plate -- only 1.50$ wow! Many prayers for a quick recovery and staying warm up there :)
