Gluesticks

Do they sell hot glue guns at dollarama ? ?

Hi I live around Mississauga Ontario, Canada and I need a hot glue gun for my project due Wednesday. I was wondering if they sell hot glue guns at the dollar store Dollarama ??

1. Most dollar stores do sell glue guns, but I can guarantee it. You can usually find them really inexpensive at craft stores, as well.
2. I have seen them, but don't think I would buy one there as they don't seem to be very good. You might end up with more problems than it's worth. You can find glue guns at hobby and craft stores and I have also seen them at Walgreen's and Longs Drug Stores. You can also find the at ACE Hardware stores and Home Depot stores. ACE Hardware usually has a section where items are priced from $1.00-$3.00 and that's where I've seen them. And the quality is a little bit better than what I've seen at the dollar stores. Usually, the cheap glue guns need you to hand push the glue through....then don't have a trigger feed. I've used them and they are not fun, comfortable or easy to use...you need to use both hands to operate the glue gun...one to hold the gun and one to push the glue stick through. Also, the cheap ones can get too hot to hold. And, sometimes the cheap ones require a different size glue stick than what you commonly find for the other glue guns. If you only need the gun for this one project....go ahead and purchase the least expensive one you like. But, if you think you may need to use a glue gun again (and you will), purchase a better model. It should have 1. A trigger feed 2. A stand or prop to place the gun on. Keeps the glue facing downward. 3. A safety-shut off in case you forget to turn it off. 4. Fits in your hand well and feels comfortable. Glue guns come in different sizes and shapes. I have several in different sizes for different jobs. You can find so many different uses for a glue gun!
