Our local Menards has a long shelf stocked with discount items just inside the store, close to the shopping carts. I just bought Oreo Fudge Covered Cookies for $1 a batch and Oreo Double Stuffed Cookies for $2.

At Dollar Tree take a stroll through the candy aisle with a store basket and a $20 bill (more or less) and fill up with old time candy for your family Christmas stockings.

Try Aldi for knock-off or store brands that are just as good (if not better) than name brand snacks and goodies for ½ to 1/3 the cost.

Merry Christmas!
