Two $5 Dollar Store Gift Cup Ideas for Graduation Presents

Perhaps an Oral Hygiene Cup or a Shaving Needs Cup Would Be a Good Gift

If you want to get something small and fun or perhaps you are picking out a gift for you graduating child that is from their younger sibling the dollar store can be the place to go. With everything always a dollar you can spend five bucks and get something practical for your graduate.

Oral Hygiene Cup

Cup
First start by picking out a cup, plastic or glass, the isn't taller than a toothbrush but is tall enough that if you stuck a toothbrush in it the toothbrush wouldn't fall out of the cup. You will also want to pick a cup that is wide enough to hold the remaining additions to the gift.

Toothbrush
You might be able to find a two or three pack of toothbrushes at the dollar store but one will work just fine too if that is all that your dollar store has.

Toothpaste
A toothbrush will do little good for the graduate if they don't had toothpaste. If you are finding that because of the box that the toothpaste comes in is to bulky to place in the cup with the other items you can take it out of the box, it will still look new.

Floss
Everyone doesn't like to floss but everyone should floss so you will want to add this to the cup for the graduate because although you will not be certain that they will use it, you will at least know if they are going to floss they will have floss on hand.

Mouthwash
Depending on the size of the cup that you buy and the size of the mouthwash that you buy you may have to tape the cup to the mouthwash bottle if it is too big to fit inside the cup.

Shaving Needs Cup

Cup
Not only will the cup the you decide to get hold the items in the gift but it will also be used by the shaver to rinse their razor.

Razors
You can probably find a package of quite a few razors for only a dollar.

Shaving Cream
Something that is nice to have when you are shaving is of course shaving cream.

Aftershave or Lotion
Depending if you think that the graduate would enjoy lotion more than aftershave will determine if you decide to get them lotion or aftershave.

Razor Blade Replacements
The razors that you give won't last forever that is why a good addition to the gift is razor blade replacements.

Once you are in the dollar store you may find things you want to add or replace with the suggested items but you are bound to find what you need without having to spend a lot of money.

    These are great gifts. Giving someone something they will use is always a great gesture.
