I found myself on a little adventure to the local Dollar Tree yesterday and was delighted to find their little spice section- they actually have quite a few herbs and spices to choose from!
The best find was a bag of whole cinnamon sticks (well, Cassia cinnamon to be technically correct lol)
I picked it up with big dreams of making a pretty Yule wreath or garland, but depending on my energy and motivation levels it may just end up in simmer pots and potentially spiced wine or cinder (Cheers! )
Anyways, for a buck (or rather 1.25, darn inflation) it’s not bad! Great to have around for decorations, cooking, or spellwork
Just thought I’d put out the call to my favorite witches!
(And if, by any chance, you have any favorite spells that use whole cinnamon sticks, feel free to drop them here/send them my way )
@Amethyst You’re welcome, Amethyst! I’m always surprised by what can be found in the dollar store- it feels like a treasure hunt going in there
@Amaris_Bane They still have all the signs up for $1 so I keep forgetting it’s all $1.25 now (until they hand me the receipt at the register lol). Time to change the name of the store from “Dollar Tree” to “Dollar 25 Tree”, I guess!
Ours still has them up too, lol. Plus we have 8.25% sales tax here in Texas. And I agree that going in feels like a treasure hunt! You never know what you walk out with. I found some witch decor around Halloween.
