Order Springtime Travel Items Now

With spring coming, many people will start making plans to travel.  During this time of preparing for adventures dollar store owners will find your customers need various dollar store items.  Make sure you order these springtime travel items now so they are available for purchase when your customers come in.

If the trip will last more than a day, people will usually bring along a lot of luggage.  Although you may not sell more expensive suitcases and such, you can offer zippered mesh bags to help them organize their luggage more effectively.  Travel-sized toiletries will also come in handy.

Kids love going on vacation, yet they typically hate sitting in the car for hours on the way there.  You can help keep your adult customers happy on the road by providing their kids with something to do.  Consider travel games they can play in the car.  Since the beach is one of the most popular destinations in the summer, consider offering Frisbees and sand toys like shovels and buckets.

Eye protect is always vital no matter what time of year it is.  There should be plenty of sunglasses for customers to purchase in your store.  Keep some near the register to act as impulse items.  For customers who wear prescription glasses, offer them repair kits in case something happens to their glasses while they are traveling.

You never know what will happen once you hit the road.  That is why travelers are always advised to bring emergency kits.  Dollar store items such as Band-Aids, gauze, aspirin, and other over-the counter medications should definitely be on the shelves.

People tend to get hungry while on the road.  Therefore, make sure your store has plenty of snacks for traveling customers to stock up on.  Supplies to make beverages like tea and coffee will come in handy.  Make sure you offer complementary dollar store items like mugs too.

Staying in a motel room is not always enjoyable, especially if it has a rather unpleasant smell.  You can help your customers deal with unsavory smells by offering air fresheners.

People who have pets may be tempted to leave them in a kennel while they travel.  Some owners prefer to bring their pets along with them since they are part of the family too.  Make sure you keep pet supplies like toys and food in stock.

With spring right around the corner, you can expect many of your customers to be hitting the road sometime soon.  Order all of the dollar store items they will need and make sure they are always in stock.
