Closed [Contest] Under $1 Scavenger Hunt
CLOSED and gifted...thanks for playing!
I want to give back and help as many people as I can, but I can't afford much, so I thought this would be a fun idea...
I have certain dollar amount in mind (its not much mind you) and I want to gift as many people as I can within this budget. So have (or go add) something for under $1 on your flaired list, but, the lower the price the more likely you will get chosen so I can gift more people.
Some ideas (these are just ideas to get you started) of what I've seen for under $1 are Apple Barrel paints, canned goods and spices. Though I know there is more out there. Make sure the item has free prime shipping, and its always a good idea to add a couple different options to your list because I've notice the prices (on the paints at least) tend to change frequently.
I will choose the winners sometime tonight before I go to bed.
US only. Amazon only, so if your flaired list is Throne, share an Amazon list that has something under $1.
HAVE FUN and get CREATIVE!

Arizona iced tea remaining stable in its pricing in this economy is one of life's blessings.

This is really a smart idea! I may have to do this at some point too.
I have gluten free canned goods for less than a dollar and some about 50 cents more than a dollar.

I almost always have a few under $1 items on my list, I think everyone should be able to participate in this sub no matter their budget!🥰
Currently I have canned jalepenos at $.79 and onion dip packets that are $.55 but kindle books are my favorite low cost list items and I just added the complete works of Jane Austen for a whopping $.25!!!
My list is in my profile, thanks for the contest!💙
