Target also has notebooks available for 99¢, so no more visiting Dollar Tree for any notebook needs! Walmart has a large notebook selection, starting at just 35¢. Notebooks are something you can easily grab for less than a dollar throughout the year. That’s 62¢ each from Dollar Tree and 49¢ each from Target!
