Spice Up Your Life with Five Below

 

Five Below is an affordable store that can serve many people and their needs. I think it’s the perfect store for those on a budget, like many college students. There are some hidden gems at Five Below that everyone should know about. Especially during times like these when it seems like the price of everything is rising. It’s nice to know a good spot to get some goodies.

Fashion

Five below has everything from snacks, makeup, chargers, and home decor, but many people sleep on their graphic tees. They have some really nice shirts and the best part is they’re less than $5.

Graphic tees are great for almost any occasion, you can dress the shirt up or down. For a cute, comfy look you can pair a graphic tee with biker shorts and slides or sneakers. If you want to go for a 2000s look you can wear a shirt with oversized/baggy jeans. If you were going on a date, you could cut a tee down the middle, tie it in the middle for a cute look, and pair it with heels.

Five below also have cute sandals that are perfect for the Texas weather.

Furthermore, Five Below has accessories that can really take your look to the next level. Necklaces, bracelets, and rings will make you feel so much better while running your errands. When you look better, you feel better.

The Importance of Self Care

It is important that we take care of ourselves. It’s better for your overall health. According to Southern New Hampshire University, “Engaging in a self-care routine has been clinically proven to reduce or eliminate anxiety and depression, reduce stress, improve concentration, minimize frustration and anger, increase happiness, improve energy, and more.” Five below has a lot of products that can be used in a self-care routine. They carry things like face masks, nail kits, body products, and oil diffusers. All of these items can take away a lot of stress in your life.

Decor

Now you may not be able to get luxury furniture from Five Below, but you can for sure find some nice home and car decorations. They have small fake plants that can make your office space more aesthetically pleasing. They also have LED lights which can take up any space from a 5 to a 10. They have many more things like pillows, rugs, wall art, and organizers. This is perfect for students moving into a dorm for the first time. Since furniture is provided by your school, all you have to worry about is decorating and getting other essentials. Many students like me don’t have a lot of help from their families and it’s totally up to them to get the things they want and need. I know when I started college my dorm shopping completely broke me. So I am glad to encourage others to shop at Five Below.

Tech

Now I know when people think of tech items that cost $5 they’re a little worried, but there are some things from Five Below that are really good for the price. They have phone cases for just about any phone. They have phone mounts for your car, which is a great find because holding your phone while driving is a safety hazard. They also have chargers that I would only trust to leave in my car because those tend to break easily. Aside from phone accessories, they have an entire gaming section with headphones, keyboards, and game controller accessories. They also have many different types of Bluetooth speakers.

Content Creation

In this new age of content creation, it seems that stores are catering solely to those who create content for various social media sites. Five Below is a great start for those who want to get into content creation without breaking the bank. They have ring lights, tripods, and vlogging kits.

Quality Time

I think Five Below is the perfect store for those who want to spend more time with their family and friends. They have tons of games and arts and crafts. You can gather all of your loved ones and go down to your nearest Five Below and have them each pick a game or craft they want to do. They also have snacks that you can grab on your way out. What’s a game night without snacks?

As you can probably tell by now, Five Below is one of my favorite stores. They have almost everything I could want. Whenever  I need a pick me up I just go to this store and stroll and see what new thing I want to try out. The best thing about Five Below is the prices. Being a full-time student and a part-time worker, I don’t always have as many funds as I would like, but shopping at Five Below helps with that. This store is also great for when I want to have a fun day with my three younger siblings. We love to get games and snacks to spend quality time together whenever I visit them. Overall, I think it’s a fun store.
