Re: Incredibly Cheap Finds
I've found a lot of stuff at the dollar store. Scrub brushes work pretty good from there. Microfiber sponges (for bug guts), foam sponges (trim restorer applicators), tooth brushes, q-tips lots and lots of things.

Craigslist - Grabbed 3 pots of Dodo Juice 250ml paste waxes for $50!
Re: Incredibly Cheap Finds
Just was at a dollar store the other day and found flat microfiber cloths for two bucks each. They work great for wiping off compound and swirl remover.
Re: Incredibly Cheap Finds
From the dollar store:
- 4oz, 3 pack dispenser (sprayer + regular) = $1 (got 10 packs for a total of 30 bottles)
- Tire brush (the very same one like Mothers) = $1.50
- Spoke brush (the very same one like Mothers) = $1.50
- Carpet brush (the very same one like Mothers) = $1.50
- 32oz spray bottle (holding up with IronX very well, SO it can't be garbage) = $1.25 (got 10 of those, for OPC, APC+, 303 Cleaner, 15% IPA, 25% IPA, Wheel Brightener, etc)
- Paint brush (extremely soft, to clean interiors, wrap metal parts with duct tape before use) = $1 (got 3 of those)
- Measurement cup (I've checked and it's precisely correct) = $1
Those brushes and dispenser bottles sell for $5 to $7 here on AG, plus all the crazy shipping costs to Canada.
And I prefer paint brushes over those round Swissvax brushes.

Re: Incredibly Cheap Finds
My wife pops in to Biglots, and I can always find something car related. Its away to test a product on the cheap, but often times its on its way out and they got it as its being discontinued.
Re: Incredibly Cheap Finds
Sally's beauty supply store which is fairly popular near me has all different size squeeze bottles and squirt bottles for a decent price.
