Fall kitchen, dollar prices

Dollar General's autumn collection is built around the kitchen and dining table, and the lineup starts at $1. Eight pieces cover towels, table settings and countertop decor.

“The kitchen is the heart of the home, and that makes it a fabulous place to decorate for autumn.”

Cozy season towel pair

Two towels for $3: one textured orange, one embroidered with a "cozy season" design. Hang one or use both for more fall color.

Placemats from a dollar

The $1 pumpkin print placemat has a wipeable surface and a scalloped edge. A $3 vinyl version comes cut in an actual pumpkin shape.

Hello Fall oven mitt

A $1 mitt printed with leaves in orange, brown, yellow and blue. Decorative oven mitts are the cheapest way to change the look of a kitchen.

Waterproof pumpkin tablecloths

Two for $5, covered in pumpkin pie slices, gourds and leaves. The PEVA material wipes clean, so one set survives the whole season of hosting.

“Their PEVA material means a waterproof and wipe-clean surface, so you can reuse them all season.”

Dollar charger plates

Wood grain-look chargers give a farmhouse table the expensive layered look for $1 each. Buy a stack and the whole Thanksgiving setting still costs pocket change.

Green pumpkin jar

A $1 transparent jar shaped like a pumpkin, good for candy or baking staples. You can see what is inside without opening it.

Tray and Gather sign

A $3 serving tray pairs a pumpkin trio with a plaid edge and a "thankful, grateful, blessed" line. The $1 "Gather" tabletop piece also comes as "Welcome" and "Thankful."
