SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

A video showing that everything one needs to play D&D is (likely) available at your local Dollr General (even dice! Though, they seemed to be sold out in the video).

Also, one doesn't necessarily need a battlemap (based on which edition one is playing), but I never noticed that gift wrap paper has a 1 inch square grid on the back.

I buy lots of terrrain stuff at Dollerama.  They've got these lovely 1/8 x 8 x 8 boards and cheap paint and plastic plants, and rocks and sand.  They used to have these green plastic spiney plants that were awesome but I can't get them anymore. :(

I also got 3 sets of dice for $4 there once but they sold out fast and I haven't seen them restocked since.  You can use some of the dinosaurs and such for monsters but they're not so great for characters.

Walmart carries sets of dice. There are six sets in the package, 7 dice in a set, and each set has its own faux cloth bag, all for 8 bucks.

Neat. And I've seen various gaming-sized miniatures in the diorama section of a hobby store. There's an online store called The Game Crafter that sells pieces like glass beads, meeples, toy coins, and customized boards and cards. Also have seen videos about making battle mats and terrain by spraypainting bits of foam packaging and even foam dinner plates.
