TY so much - these are the best$ tree hacks I've seen yet. I can't wait to check out the other ones!

[@GlueGunsRoses]

@@GrammyRose Yup. I don't carry designer hand bags. I carry designer trash bags 😂

[@GlueGunsRoses]

@@Amanda-zj8lw so much love to you my friend ❤-Megan

[@Erica.S19]

I've missed you #Megan!! I was just fixing to message Shannon to check on you!! I love all these!! Especially the Roku idea!! Genius bc the kids seem to make it vanish everytime they touch it!! Hahaha hope you're doing great!!

[@lorenef.samson8636]

Even three years later I'm loving your video! Thank you again for such great hacks, shortcuts, and organization ideas!

[@gloriajones124]

So am I!

[@kirtisawant9288]

You really are the real DIY person. Making life easier with creative solutions.

[@sherilynalexnder897]

One of my favorite DT organizational hacks is for my purse - I bought three of their clear plastic pencil/make-up bags and divided my purse contents into those by category. Now I have just three of those bags plus my wallet and keys in my purse. Def a game changer if you're frustrated with the endless pawing to find stuff. Plus it makes switching purses a snap!

[@AMcDub0708]

Their clear mini purses (?) they sell with handles, a zipper, and 3 compartments in the front (stocked in the laundry/clothing section at my DT) are also great to toss in any purse. I cut the handles off the top but it would do just as well to keep them too. I suppose I could’ve attached a travel sanitizer to the handle but oh well 😁

[@cjon4256]

You're smarter than the average bear! ( in case you're not as old as I am, that's from Yogi Bear).

[@katherineskrzynecki3347]

Awesome ideas! Thx!

[@francescalegrand4520]

Thank you for a great idea! I will definitely use this one.

[@lindamaskus5142]

I bought a bag from "31 bags" that is a three part bag. It has a zipper on each side with the center pocket open! You just take the whole thing out when changing purses and it's perfect.

[@cindyjohnson5242]

Woman, you are an amazing genius!! Wow!! Now I need some energy to get to work!

[@nicholejohnson6050]

Dude. I spit out my water when you said, “I pretty much carry around a bag of trash.” Why is that the truest statement ever??? LOL

[@salemgraves1692]

😂😂 definite truth!!

[@StephBer1]

My bag is black inside and I have been known to search inside it for up to 15 minutes looking for something. And yes, it's full of trash. I clean it out but it keeps returning! 😂

[@angethomas]

So true!!!! LOL

[@GlueGunsRoses]

@@StephBer1 😂😂😂 I have been known to frantically run around Home Goods after closing looking for my keys because I believed with all my heart I had set them down in the store somewhere. All the sweet employees wanting to go home for the night helping me retrace all my steps only to completely dump my purse out in a shopping bag to find my keys. 🤦‍♀️I was so humiliated because they all saw the trash I carried in my purse as I dumped it out but more so I felt like the biggest jerk for keeping the workers from getting home.

[@StephBer1]

@@GlueGunsRoses You poor thing. A sad tale for all concerned. My husband calls my bag the Bermuda Triangle. Things go in my bag, never to be seen again.😂

[@deborahchristen6962]

Oh you crack me up! "I pretty much carry around a bag of trash." You are my spirit animal and we have the same purse!

[@jayhawk9485]

glad im not the only one

[@cristingilbert1101]

I’m telling you, after watching this video I went to dollar tree and got so much stuff to start storing better. I’m loving it. My drawers are way more organized and easy to find things. Thanks girl

[@tammy7759]

Awesome hacks and I appreciate that not everything has to be Instagram perfect!

[@cassysatterfield5860]

I was so tired of DT organizing videos because they were either copies I'd seen or not very functional until THIS ONE! THIS ONE IS FABULOUS!!!

[@wandmn2007]

I watch a lot of dollar Tree hacks, but I really like these! They don't require many of the impossible to find things that other videos do. And I never knew what the loop fastener things did! One of my favorite dollar Tree things is the medium sized organizer things that look like a shower caddy, and I think it would be great to velcro it in place. I use it on my nightstand to hold drinks and remotes, but it will come off, so that's perfect. My other current favorite hack for flip flops and flats is to use one of the buckets or trash can and clip them with the little wire things like a clothes pin. I used to always end up with random shoes with no match to be found. They hold 7 to 10 pairs, I have 3 buckets done like this. You can actually see your. Flip flops

[@anncroan8240]

Love the Roku remote idea!!! Going to use it as soon as I find the remote! 😂

[@magicallymalicious01]

I fold my jeans in half and hook those book holders in the back belt loops and clip them to my closet pole instead of hangers they don't get caught on each other like hangers and they slide really easy

[@JamieM470]

The wheels for big heavy baskets is brilliant :)

[@selbarton]

Their book rings never stay closed well enough for most of those ideas. And the carabiner works great for hair ties, even the big scrunchies. I have command hooks on my bathroom wall for a tablet holder and just hook the carabiner on one of those.

[@christyrice9115]

The adding the planter trolley to the big tubs and laundry baskets is genius!! I will definitely be using this idea for my son's toy bins. Thanks for all the great ideas, I know I will be using a lot of them from now on.

[@annchagnon9144]

[@krisperkes3400]

Can I just say--wow!! We are old (77 & 75) living in apt after having several homes. We really don’t have enough storage. Your ideas from dollar tree are awesome. Wish I had known them when I was teaching school.

[@renees1021]

The over-the-door hooks you show at 0:41 is also great on the side of refrigerator. Just straighten the top of door folds and tape the extended "arms" to refrigerator top and hang hit pads, oven mitts, and BBQ spatulas/tools.

[@Relyt1458]

The idea for the dryer sheets is FANBLOODYTASTIC! Thanks for sharing your Thinking Outside Of The Box!

[@dianebrooks4425]

All of the storage tips that you invented are awesome! I have yet to see a video of spice storage that involves 20-30+ regular sized spice bottles that are both plastic and glass, 10+ small spice bottles and 10+ extra large spice bottles. Most videos are about having a few spice bottles. I would love to see one from you as I love your explanations of projects and general comments and advice. Thank you!

[@roxette24]

I don’t recall ever seeing this in the store. At any of the many in my area.

[@lynnecarnivale6414]

​@@roxette24 Hello...they only keep these magnetic pouches in the teacher supply area. They sell rulers, posters, learning games and such. All back to school items. It's in a plastic bag so it's easy to overlook it. It is made in a variety of colors. I have purple, I keep baggies and twist ties in mine on our fridge. I know you posted a year ago, just wanted to share that if you have not found them. God bless you and family. Lynne🍃💜✝️💜🍃

The fridge soda can storage bins at 6:29. I've been trying to get some of those for a long time, but none of the DT's in my area carry them. The DT website does not have them. They have some that are just regular bins. They don't have the lower front end for access....and you have to buy 24. I'm so bummed. I guess only some DT's carried them in the first place, and now they're discontinued. On the other hand, the wheels on the bottom of big storage bins is brilliant. And Dollar General did have one! I put it on my laundry basket because I have a bad back, and it makes it SO much easier. Thank you for that.

[@TheChristopherBlake1]

I LOVE THESE ! Also, I use the magnetic hooks when going to the beach . Flip the SUV Back, Hatch Door upward, attach magnetic hooks all around hatch, then add a shower curtain for a changing room & insta shower. Maybe you could do a Get Away for a Day with Camping & Beaching Tips & Tools. Thanks so much 🙏🙏 Blake in Los Angels

[@canteohetikabetweenlodges8303]

Within this new Covid-19 era(financial challenged). More families are living together in a three/four bedroom homes with or without a full basement. We'd be interested in learning how to organize living space for 4 employed adults, 3 Teens/Set of 5 yr old twins. 1 Toddler. Bunk bed under space is limited. Thinking if they can quarter up bedroom closets for each kid might free up more communal space. Right now. Sheets separate make shift bedrooms in the open floor basement. Seems to be crowded without proper closet spaces. Dollar tree Landry bags are great for the kids stuff. Thank you for all your ideas. Definitely saving space.

[@daniellec6175]

I'm genuinely impressed by these ideas!

[@kmh997]

[@nosleeptilbklyn]

Oh how I love you and your channel! Your hacks are clever and useful and I LOVE that everything isn’t “Pinterest perfect” because they’re REAL and you’re REAL! When I first discovered you I binged ALL your videos! And I have half a dozen halfway finished projects to prove it, along with more yarn and string and jute than I know what to do with haha! Thanks for your great videos, Megan!

[@debrahorton3272]

[@crystlcollins2154]

After losing my keys (more than once!) in stores, I started using carbiners to keep them on my purse handle several years ago. Then I started hooking the cabinet to my jeans loop when I'm not using a purse. It may look (& sound odd as I walk), but it keeps them at hand... Literally!😂

[@cjon4256]

I was in a parking lot at night, searching in my black purse for keys. I'm a wheelchair and a man sweetly came up behind me and asked if he could help put my chair in the car for me. I didnt notice him and screamed when he first spoke. I was genuinely scared. He could have been a bad man. Since that day I have clipped my keys to the outside of my purse for quick and easy access.

[@AMcDub0708]

Another life changing hack I came up with when my kids were toddlers. Don’t you hate when the little ones bump the wooden shapes puzzles that come in a tray? It seems I was always the one putting the puzzles back together. Solution: put the soft side of a Velcro dot (DT brand is fine) on the bottom of each piece. Attach the scratchy side to the secured dot and remove the backing. Now put the puzzle piece back into the corresponding spot in the puzzle and push hard to secure. Repeat on all the pieces and voila! Easy enough for toddler to take the pieces out but secure enough not to dump everywhere 😁 Ps, the reason for putting the soft side of the Velcro on the puzzle piece is because the scratchy side will adhere to your carpet. Ask me how I know 😆🙋‍♀️

[@jalifritz8033]

Brilliant tip thanks!

[@JL-iu7fk]

Brilliant idea!

[@vickyandersen8660]

Thank you!!! My baby got a puzzle for her birthday and the pieces are everywhere

[@julianajettgilbertgiraffes]

That's brilliant! and the force needed for little fingers to pull off the puzzle pieces from the velcro will help increase their fine motor muscles in their fingers, win win!!

[@roxette24]

I used to work at a special needs school and we would do this! We used Velcro for more things then you could probably imagine. I had forgotten about the puzzles though until I read your comment!! Definitely adding some to my daughters!
