Our Dollar Tree has plenty of them, near the front of the store at the end of the aisles. We haven't gotten any, but I guess it's worth a dollar.
I got the foldable water bottles today at my Dollar tree too for $1.00 in Summerville SC

Love it so far... 1st time cruiser in Sept. TY for the list!!!:)
Okay... I'm going to try to get this review done as quick as I can. I know how nice it is not to have to wait weeks for a review to be finished. Keep in mind that this is the first time I've done this and I still feel like I'm rocking and swaying, so bear with me.I'm currently uploading all my pics, so I'll get started with listing some stuff that I found very useful while at sea and other stuff that I didn't use at all...
Useful Items:
Bonine! - I got the one a day chewable kind. DH and DD didn't need them, but I definitely experienced some queasiness.
Fabreeze - Came in handy when those small bathrooms were not so fresh.
Binder Clips - Used to hold the towel to the chair on our first sea day (which was extremely windy) and to keep papers left in our room together.
Empty Foldable Bag - Packed flat in our suitcase and used to carry off our souvenirs.
Pop-up Hamper - Obviously used for dirty laundry. We kept it hidden away in the closet.
Post It Notes - To leave notes for each other in the room.
Snorkeling Gear (Mask & Snorkel only) - For excursions in both ports.
AA Batteries - Our camera runs on regular batteries and I took so many pics that I had to change them 3 times.
*don't laugh* Dark Colored Doggie Poo Disposal bags - (For Women Only) Those little provided bags are thin paper.
3 Plug Outlet - Charged multiple electronics
First Aid Kit - I also added the single packs of headache/pain meds, sinus meds, Pepto tablets, Tums and cold/flu meds to the kits.
Conditioner - I used the provided shampoo and body wash, but between the salt air/water and the wind, my hair needed conditioning.
Insulated Coffee Mug - This saved DH from having to make multiple trips to the beverage station.
Refillable Wide-Mouth Sports Bottle - Also to avoid trips to the beverage station (didn't want to leave my lounge chair unoccupied).
Small Notebook and Pen - I didn't end up using it for taking notes, but used it for keeping score while playing cards.
18 16.9oz Bottles of Soda - 6 each for the 3 of us.
Small Battery Operated Alarm Clock
Mints and Gum
Hand Sanitizer
Chapstick with SPF
Plenty of Sunscreen
Assorted Sizes Ziplock Bags
And... A well packed toiletries bag
Did Not Used (but would still pack in the future):
Disposable Poncho - We got lucky and it didn't rain while we were in port
Small Flashlight - Didn't end up getting up in the middle of the night
Travel Size Detergent - Surprisingly, we did spill any food or drinks on ourselves.
Stain Stick - same as above
Drink Mixes - We found the water, tea, lemonade and coffee provided on the ship to be enough.
Highlighter - Didn't highlight anything on the Fun Times. Not being on a schedule was more enjoyable.
Tablet/eReader - Never found time to read
Duct Tape (wrapped around a card to take up less space)
Safety Pins
Mini Sewing Kit
Small Nail Kit
Ear Plugs
Binoculars
Up next... Embarkation
