Dollar Tree in Bellevue.

Image
 I frequent the dollar store, which is now the Dollar twenty five and up store.  There are at least three in Bellevue.  I mostly go there for cookies and candy.  They have movie theater candies, nerd gummy clusters, as well as some very good cookies for $1.25.  The cookies at a regular store are $3 or more.  I want to commend the Bellevue store, across from Walmart, as they had all the good flavors of cookies which you can hardly find anymore.  Fudge stripes which are known as Grandpa cookie, as well as the peanut butter cookies, the mint cookies and the graham cracker covered with chocolate.  I like other favors as well, the lemon creams and the coconut bars and the ones that say yes or no on them.  You can havre a good time but now you have to be wary because they also have higher priced items. They have cheap toys, paper products (a good place for poster paper) and seasonal products.   Grandpa cookies

 Iowa 80 is ery close to the Illinois border on the I-80.  This is a very large gas station and truck stop.  Inside are seven or eight restaurant, including Wendy's where I ate.  I had two meal deals, which was a bit much but I ate for both lunch and dinner.  There is a truck museum next door.
