Welcome to my college survival guide everyday for the next 30 days, I'm going to be sharing all the best budgeting and affordability tips. Let's be real, most of us are on a Dollar Tree budget. Today I'm going to take you to Dollar Tree and we're going to make things to make an easy DIY plate wall. I said I'd go to hit 200k before this series was over and we are so close. I cannot believe it. Make sure you're following me and tag a friend and please share this video.
