Found a pack of 12 gardening gloves at the dollar store that lasted me 3 full seasons

I grabbed them back in April 2022 thinking they'd fall apart in a month, but they held up through weeding, planting, and even some light pruning until the elastic finally gave out last fall. Has anyone else had dollar store garden gear that actually outlasted the fancy stuff from the hardware store?

Right, dollar store stuff either lasts five minutes or somehow outlives the expensive brands, no in between. I bought a pair of pruning shears from there once that snipped through branches like butter while my buddy's fancy ones rusted solid. Guess the secret is just not paying attention to the packaging hype.

Found a dollar store screwdriver set five years ago, still going strong.

Five years from a dollar store screwdriver set? That's WILD. I don't think I've ever had a dollar store tool last longer than a single use.
