In these belt-tightening times, people are rediscovering the simple pleasures and your “stay-cation” might include picnics in the park. If you like the idea of packing a picnic lunch and enjoying it with the kids under a big shade tree by a babbling brook or beside a lake dotted with ducks, dollar stores have plenty of stuff to help you get outfitted for these relaxing outings. 

Go to Picnic Perfect  to see our picks for picnics.
