Buy glassware in bulk from Dollar Tree Direct

Now that the outdoor party season has arrived, you may need some extra glasses. I'm always delighted to find pretty glassware at the dollar store.

These Libby water goblets are only $1 a piece at Dollarama. They also have martini and other specialty glasses. That's good.

Even better? Dollar Tree Direct lets you order in bulk online, which strikes me as a very neat idea if you need to buy a lot of wine glasses for a wedding or other large gathering.

Furthermore, if you pick up your order at your local Dollar Tree store, you won't pay shipping charges. Each item in your order is still only a dollar. To my mind, you can't do better than that.
